Some of the alt coin provide a better feature than bitcoin from one side, there are no alt coins that got better features than bitcoin completely, and bitcoin got a huge support and the popularity, there are too many alt coins that appear so it weakened the alt coin itself, and it become easier to be manipulated, that is also become the reason that alt coins is more profitable than bitcoin in trading, but without real adoption alt coin won't able to compete with bitcoin

Bitcoin and altcoin both are doing very well and people are getting attracted towards these two day by day. However, different altcoins have different features which bitcoin lacks and what bitcoin has, none of these got in themselves. Bitcoin is considered to be the king of crypto currency.

I think the best thing altcoin has is that the price is still very cheap and affordable, altcoin also has more supply than Bitcoin, I'm sure altcoin will go beyond bitcoin, but it takes a very long time.

Altcoins possess much of the same applicability of Bitcoin but many offer something else as well. Some of them are faster, some are more anonymous, some provide better investment options, some are more volatile and thus are more advantageous in terms of trading.
I have high regards that Altcoins surely outpass Bitcoins in many ways. What do you think guys?

Some new altcoins may exceed Bitcoin in many ways. But! 99% of them are all just on paper and they do not have what Bitcoin has - the time that he went through. Therefore at the moment I think there are no direct competitors yet

it has long been clear and known that bitcoin is inferior to many altcoins, but this is the source of which will always be, I hope it will not be so important, and all coins will be equivalent and not depend on each other

Your analysis is correct. In today's payment, cryptocurrencies have gone beyond Bitcoin, but their shortcomings are also very obvious. They can only be used for certain kinds of transactions, and Bitcoin can be widely used in daily life. !

Bitcoin is the king, that's why he is first.
But like kings, bitcoin will finish to die and let his throne to an other.

I think the right altcoins can offer more in terms of profitability than bitcoin would in the long term. an outcoin with a value $0.1 that becomes $1 is a 10 folds increase, I dont think we are going to see 10 folds increase in bitcoin anytime soon.

Bitcoin is always the leader. This is indisputable. But bitcoin is theoretically the most primitive. There are a lot of projects that do what he can not do. There are ico's who do great things. These are really important things.


lol at people drinking the cool aid here

there are serious trade off's for any project that improves on certain areas of btc.........there are zero alts with clear advantages without clear disadvantages

btc is not primitive it is merely calculated in its simplicity for maximum impact in the most important areas

Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency and it established and is dominated by a large number of people and will remain the best crypto and altcoin are created to cover the disadvantages of bitcoin because in terms of transaction speed and fee, altcoins are better, they have specific functions according to their importance, they offer more volatility than bitcoin, they give more profit on long term investment than bitcoin because they are cheaper. I think it is only when all altcoin combine as one that they will surpass bitcoin.

Different altcoins offer unique feature and serve different industry or ecosystem need.Ethereum for example is for Smart contracts and a platform for launching other cryptos.That obviously is not possible with bitcoin.

 Perhaps yes there's a chance that some alts can outpass bitcoin. Unless if some of big holder on bitcoin jump to another alt to collaborate the progress of the project. But on this circumstances which is as long bitcoin is still expensive i think no other alt can over take bitcoin price and it will remain on the top as long there's still a massive demand and supply in the market.

Kind of a weird question since different Altcoins can do completely different things. Asking what 'Altcoins' offer in comparison with Bitcoin is therefore way to broad of a question!

You know, Bitcoin is worth it, and its momentum is constantly growing

maybe altcoin is good as an alternative to long-term infestation ,, if you think alcoin price is much cheaper than the bitcoin price right now, some people think buy altcoin whose price is still relatively cheap and good, then hold it to good price and sell it, it also which I do ,, but I do not know everybody's thinking is different

Altcoins provide a specific purpose for their coin like, some are used as crypto banks, some for particular payment for specific areas like travels, hotel, and accommodation. I think Altcoins are better than Bitcoin based on its individual characteristics, better features, and advanced technologies.

They have their own unique features but you can't just tell the people that stop using bitcoin.

I've using bitcoin for payments and it's like a norm to me and I'm used to this type of coin so if you are looking for something that altcoin does have and bitcoin doesn't have. You get to know more about the market and maybe you can understand what you really like.

A lot of thigns that bitcoin can not do at the moment, there are a lot of altcoins that you can use for different purposes, and you can only use bitcoin as a meant of payment, and a store of value.

By and large, I think that most of the altcoins will die sooner or later, because they are all very similar to each other, so to say that these projects are unique is not necessary, I think that bitcoin is one.
