What are the chances BTC is replaced by something better soon?

[Irvinn]

If bitkoyn would not improve for a while, it is likely that in the next three years he would cease to be the leader of the crypto currency. The most suitable, in my opinion, the place of the leader Ethereum or bitkoyn cash.
      However, a lightning network has already been successfully tested, which will be implemented in bitcoin somewhere immediately after the New Year. This will allow bitcoins to lose virtually all of its shortcomings, for which it is so often criticized in recent times. If this happens, then in the short term no one in the crypto currency has a chance to take the place of bitcoin as a leader.

"Soon" would be in the next 1-3 years or so.

One of the biggest dangers for BTC is something more useful coming along and investors switching - a process which could happen extremely fast, once started.

So to all the tech savy people in here - what advantages could other cryptocurrencies bring that will give them a crucial edge over BTC, and how fast could something like that come along?

A lot of rising alt coins are starting to gain momentum and try to take down bitcoins. Spawns of bitcoins like Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold has gained a lot of value now and is trying to take down bitcoins now. Etheriums are actually taking heat now and is rising in price as well. Bitcoins have a lot more competition in 2018.

if I see the same potential today is BCH is almost the same thing with bitcoin and increase almost equal to bitcoin and I think 1-3 years could be replaced bitcoin with altcoin like BCH hopefully can happen and I hope bitcoin can develop continuously

I'm thinking that the shark tank is planning to make bitcoin cash into altcoin instead of bitcoin in the next few years as the price of bitcoin is increasing even though the price of bitcoin dump high.

Soon no other currency has the potential to replace Bitcoin digital money system. This unbelievable thing for now. Let’s see what the price will be reached by Bitcoin in the middle of the next year.

I think, Bitcoin needs huge changes because of its centralization, high fees and awards for miners... I see the future of BTC is the new fork - Segwit2X.
More info here: https://b2x-segwit.io/

You can help to promote the fork by submitting a support ticket to your favorite exchange and ask if they foresee the Segwit2x fork listing anytime soon.
The larger and more active is the community - the faster exchange platforms should commit to a fork

I think in the near future we will see an increase in this new bitcoin investors acquisition of exchanges eventually replacing bitcoin with fiat.

[chris molty]

Coins that are better than bitcoin in terms of technology is not missing, what they miss is the name is all

Chances that may vary to change fiat into crypto as a preference of money usage? I think therr so many reasons why because bitcoin is a fastest way of payment system so i think the transaction is also fast if that happened. But i dont think cryptos cant replace today because although there is so many advantages that you get when you use bitcoin there is also disadvantages to consider before it will happen.

[melonbtchunter]

Bitcoin can not be perfect yet, but Bitcoin is actually very good for everyone, and especially for people, helpful. Bitcoin will be something very wrong for something other than the main player.

[1C6fV5DtakfKANLJ8GUV7hCaA]

Chances will be  when altcoins and exchanges get to trade pairs on fiat. That's one. Next is if another altcoin gets to have good marketing and cheap, fast, transactions. Who knows?

[jhonnydeep87]

One thing happens to bitcoin when people think about crypto currency and they only know bitcoin because of media or they never mention litecoins or other in on this.

[Gagalnuyul]

yes it may happen but bitcoin and alt coin have a special attraction for traders and investors

[Big Show]

I think one time BTC should have been replaced by something much better, it's a sign of competition in cryptocurrency growing rapidly. Not merely bitcoin be number 1. There must be a change. There must be something interesting and replace bitcoin. The moment will surely come. But if you look at the current value and market capitalization, it will not happen any time soon.

[Sevarchik]

No chances in btc invested very big money from not enthusiast.
If comunity support something new how was with ETH it cant beat bitcoin

[Sarastiche]

With several options been develop daily in the blockchain industry,If BTC is not adding value to in value to investors sure it can be overtaken by other valuable coin in the near future,The crypto space is evolving, nothing is impossible in the space.

Will,in terms of value and popularazation in crypto technology investment,there's no one could replace as of now in bitcoin,so therefore those hoax  news feed   that you heard that BTC is in danger  because of some coming new altcoins that can make the investor switching into a new investment is a big mistake,because as my own observation if bitcoin will dump,the other altcoins will down  and affected also,while in other hand if bitcoin will pump some altcoins carried its value and turn to green.

Hello everybody. I think that Bitco's place will not be occupied. There are very few chances here. Look - in recent years, a lot of coins have been created and faster and more technologically and in general, in all respects better. But Bitcoin remains king - amazing, but true. Money likes silence, - hardly anyone will let Bitcoin fall below the 1 st place. This will be a certain damage to the crypto-currency community. It's my opinion. You can disagree, but I do not at all see any prospect that Bitcoin's place will be occupied by someone else. Bitcoin, is, first and foremost, a name. Make an experiment, go out, right now on the street and ask the first people who came to see what a crypto currency is, the majority will answer - Bitcoin.

Yes you are on point, bitcoin is what pops out of everyone’s mouth. Some of the people I tried to have a Cryptocurrency conversation with mostly confuse the term Cryptocurrency for bitcoin. Bitcoin has got its name on everyone’ s mind. As it stands now, bitcoin has no match and I am very positive that it will be so for the next few years.
