So why not invest a little in alt currencies? What have you got to lose? Like this dodgecoin shit, mine for a few days, get a few thousand coins and sit on it. If it takes it, wahey, if not, you've lost maybe 20mins of your time and a weekend's worth of CPU time?
This is the safest way to invest, mining some coins out of every new altcoin. You can not loose much this way especially if you enjoy it

And seriously guys yesterday there was a small time window when Dogecoin was #1 on Coinmarketcap.com (yes, above Bitcoin!) If interested I can share the screenshot.

Unless there is a vulnerability in bitcoin, I don't think any other alt-coin will ever overtake bitcoin. Bitcoin needs faster transactions though.

btc is the foundation of all other coins. without it, there wouldn't be a coin to hold the alt market together

Something that scales to millions of transactions per second and has easy/cheap transfers of vending-machine size transactions is gonna win. But whatever it is (and it might even be a redesign of Bitcoin), it won't work exactly like Bitcoin works now.

So nice that we agree...

if they invent a coin called "CryptoCoin" it will overtake even Bitcoin simply because of the name people *hate* saying Bitcoin it sounds like something a nerd would say the closest one that even *sounds* like a reputable business is FastCoin

New transactions are almost instantly propagated over the Bitcoin network (max few seconds )

I agree with an earlier poster that once altcoins can be bought without converting to bitcoin first, things will change.`
There is absolutely no way anyone can predict whats going to happen with such a monumental paradigm shift in the way humans trade with each other, especially after using such a corrupt system from pretty much it's inception.
One scenario I don't think anyone has given any real thought to is the possibility of not just half a dozen, but literally 50,60 or even 100 currencies all co-existing together......worldwide. What currency some teenager uses 10 years from now could be based 100% on what his/her friends use or simply which logo appeals to them or any number of crazy reasons.
People might trade these 50, 60 coins on the same scale as today's "real" currencies are now.
I think it might be time for "Hello Kitty Coin"

Not a chance.
There are alts that have promise, but none will take over bitcoin.
Alts with promise:
* PPCoin * Primecoin * Namecoin * Litecoin (not for any real reason, just because it's second on the list).
Quarkcoin is slowly making its way up. They have multiple algorithms (6 to be exact), and the transactions are super fast. It is gaining a lot of interest, but it was pre-mined A LOT.

Interesting point you make. Hello Kitty Coin is also a nice idea but what about trademarks? Otherwise could be made into playmoney for kids to but candy and stuff

Alts create a great ecosystem that tests various coins/ideas/performance. We quickly see what works, what fails, what needs to change. I think Alts are a key part to the crypto industry in general, but I don't see how they will over take btc.

I think you're right, unless something comes out that is far better than Bitcoin and offers something genuinely new and innovative.
