how many alts will eventually survive in the future?

[normensky012]

Too many expert has already predicted then only a fraction of this cryptocurrency will survive, just like how little of companies survived after the dot com bubble era. But this cryptocurrency that will survive willl depends on it's utitlity value, importance, network size and constant upgrades and development. We can't say for sure, but a painful estimate of about 5 % or less.

[Iblis 02]

the analysis for altcoin is now so difficult from projects that exclude good products and projects that do not work on the road map.
only about 3% will survive the next 5 years because more and more people are hearing about the ICO it is increasingly difficult for us to find information because many media that reject the existence of crypto advertisement.

I think there will be only one coin that will remain for the future. It will be regulated by the community that a certain coin will be the next digital money because if we have lot of coin the system will be a mess. The coin that will remain have the characteristic of a good community feedback and regulated by well developed team.

Many altcoins have good prospects for the future, such as the obvious ETH, LTC and DASH, even NEO, ICX, TKY, CND and ABT

[BeruchN]

tbh i wouldn't mind if a lot of the shitty altcoins disappeared in the future.

quality over quantity i guess

[jakiro.hovard]

I think that those projects that will be able to master the development of their project will survive, because now there are a lot of declared projects that are very complex in their development, I think and I hope that there will be at least 50% of those projects that really do something.

I have watched a guy saying over 95% of alt coins will banish in near future. so here is my questions

1. do you have any speculation about what percentage of alt coins or ICOs would still exist for next 5 years?

2. If you pick just one alt coin or ICO, which will survive for sure and why?

Many tell that most altcoins will die off in 5 years. I disagree. There are plenty of coins that are still alive after 5 years. Some worth pennies, some not.
Some altcoins bring something new, or have loyal communities, or created a platform still in use; then there are coins and tokens that you can see as sort of stocks: they are used to support a business and they can change owner easily.

1. Given all I wrote until now, I will be one of the odd ones telling that even a 50% is possible. And I put only 50% because there are (too) many coins that are pure scams, those will certainly fall.
2. I will say Monero, since the need for privacy is still high and will rise in the future. But I highly advise to use your own judgement when investing and I also highly advise to diversify. If one coin may fail, if you pick 5 coins, you have a good chance at least 3 are good bet (if you do your homework before choosing the coins)

in my point of view the alt coin that will remain for the future are: ethereum, monero and could be Steem

I think a large number of altcoys will simply disappear this year. Since most of them do not really have value. Remain only those who have a sought-after product.

[emmybd]

There are a lot of altcoins, but only a few of them would survive in future. These altcoins wouldn't fail in near future. It would take several years.

What does surviving mean?
I bet many shitcoins will have nodes keeping their networks alive in the future.

[Merugu]

I think it depends on the bitcoin price, so Alt will follow the bitcoin price, so alt will grow even more.

[Sahyadri]

Most of the ICO that are coming nowadays are mere shit. if we talk utility wise, the percentage of coins that can survive is pretty below 2%-3%. Coins like POWR, TRIG, VEN etc might survive. But coins which are only running on speculation with hardly any use case will most probably die in near future. It's just like the 90s dot com bubble. Projects with potential will only survive.

[Sypher902]

Coins with high community support and good real life use cases might survive for longer term as demand for which will always tend to high. But this doesn't always comes true for example bitconnect Ponzi got so much community support before getting busted.

It also depends upon roadmap of the token and Dev team behind the coin. I think hardly 20-30% of existing coin might exist for next decade.

All that kept bitconnect alive was the support from community and the investment returns that people were making from it. I didn’t really trusted bitconnect enough from the starting to invest in it cause I never really saw anything of much utility in that coin and what it had was nothing different that what other coins were offering. So its mandatory to do research and analysis before investing in a coin rather than just pouring in money because some people said or you are watching it grow past few months or year.

hows regal coin doing>?
best thing was to take roi right away!

Alts die. BTC is God like!! I really believe in the tech and not alot of people trust in eth icos

If you select today, then I will choose the Ethereum and think about NEO.
Ethereum remains the most popular coin. Although there are scalability issues. I hope that the project team will resolve these issues.
NEO is called the Chinese double of Ethereum, so it is also credible.

[dobol]

I think there will be only 10% that will still survive for the next 5 years, it is because of the development of the era and technology that continues to update every day. many projects will evolve to adjust or stop.

[weborsha]

Ethereum will survive anything in my opinion. And yes, most of coins we have now will cost nothing in five years. But a lot more coins than we have now are going to appear.

There will many but will be worth pennies.   For a cryptocoin to work you just need 2 people.  So not that much requirements. But 99% of coins right now is overpriced. Way overpriced. there are $1 billion and more worth coins with no usability. 

I wont say that any of the altcoin on the coin market cap (except 1 or 2) are overpriced. The crypto market is still on the initial stage of adoption and development. I would rather say that most of the altcoins on market and the whole market capitalization of the crypto world is quite undervalued currently.

We are not even close to saying the word mass adoption. Most of the altcoins with good potential, vision, hard working team and advance technology shall survive in the long run. Many will be in worth pennies, but many will even be worth fortune. So invest with research and analysis.

How undervalued?

There are nothing working things worth $5 billions. Do you know how much is $5 billions?   Do you know how much is worth Dell? They do have a working product. Several.

Watch this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peKyV9lAhdk

Huawei was a month ago worth 1/10 of EOS. And EOS is nothing at this point, Huawei is, ....    Who is here undervalued?   EOS?  RIPPLE? DASH? .....  who?

[xsaints128]

Not many altcoins are gonna survive in the future. Only the alts with real world use are gonna see the light of the day, others will eventually fade away slowly. In my opinion, alts like eth, neo, dash, etc., are gonna survive.

It would be possible when bitcoin's price surge up so fast to $50k or more,these altcoins wont have any value any more especiall those below $100 altcoins,because 1 satoshi would be too expensive so these altcoins wont have any value greater than 1satoshi,do you know how the bitcoin's are fucking up these altcoin when it moves regardless up or down.
