Will Altcoin be as important as Bitcoin?

[Serious Miner]

Altcoins also plays an important role in our crypto community especially in trading and bounty hunters and ICO's projects. Bitcoin is the father of all cryptocurrency it has huge power in the crypto market and somehow altcoins and bitcoin have connected each other bitcoin's price influences on altcoins price. So both are vital in the market.

I don't think the current altcoin is competitive with Bitcoin. They seem to only earn money from investors, investors only need these new altcoins to earn the difference!

Altcoins can be compared with each other and it is not always if they have a similar platform as EOS and ETH for example, but with bitcoin which dominates the market to compare does not make sense .

Only good performer will be the best in every sector, be in in cryptocurrency or other. Talking about cryptocurrency, the market is becoming stable and strong unlike in the past when speculation had the upper hand. I think in the future, only the good performing coins will dominate and others failing to deliver will diminish regardless of bitcoin or altcoins.

bitcoin will remain the crypto currency forever.
it is not necessarily about the technical properties, although these are not to be despised, but also about the degree of popularity.

altcoins will be very important for mass adaptability.
in my opinion, these things cannot really be compared.

I think a lot of altcoins already are very important. And in my opinion, ETH is as important as BTC or even more.
ETH can be used for trading, for participating in ICO, for saving, etc. The usage of ETH is much wider than BTC.
