Can too many Altcoin's can become a threat to bitcoin's existence

[AAKODI]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

[bitmover]

Nah, they can't harm bitcoin.

Those altcoins are trying to surf on bitcoin's wave and enthusiasm. It's thw other way around.

Probably most of hem will just be ignored in a few years or months, as bitcoin has better infrastructure and devs.

[mk4]

It does hinder the bitcoin (and cryptocurrency) ecosystem in general. People getting scammed by scam coins/tokens and the publicity of the news about the scams are getting gives people a bad impression of bitcoin/crypto. So it does slow down adoption to some degree in my opinion. Long term though? This will probably be irrelevant. Technology moves forward nonetheless.

Legit altcoins though? Probably not. Not a single altcoin that's focused on being a store of value or for-payments is close to bitcoin in terms of adoption and security.

[dothebeats]

I don't think so. The market might be overcrowded with useless alts of bitcoin but in the end, people know what to choose, that's why bitcoin still has the largest market cap of all the cryptocurrencies in existence. Also, most experts and giants in the field are acknowledging bitcoin more than any other coins, which gives traders confidence on the coins they picked, hence why the volume is still large even though some coins are gaining traction. As for the legal side, many countries are starting to draft their own regulations and laws regarding bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Japan is a fine example of bitcoin's legalization, and other countries would sure to follow suit.

[libert19]

Nope. Just see the current scenario — Bitcoin dips a bit, altcoins dip a lot only strong will survive.

[freebutcaged]

If you think about it, Bitcoin has a market cap of over one hundred and nine billion dollars while the rest of the coins

Have less. do you know how many coins we have?

So it does slow down adoption to some degree in my opinion.

You are wrong, having hundreds of coins with a combined market cap of less than Bitcoin's, is a competition and

Bitcoin has to think about the ways to compete more rigorously. in the future if Bitcoin wants to survive, it needs to

Offer something more.

[Commitments]

Based on how altcoin price is it, many alcoin just be trash and have more drop price and it not better for buying and invest coin there. I found many altcoin delisted form exchange market and have lost money there.

[senin]

The presence of so many varieties of altcoyins can not in any way damage the bitcoins. In altcoyins, especially for tokens, their functions and tasks, and they are used in narrow spheres of human activity. Bitcoin and altcoins do not practically intersect during their existence.
The presence of a large number of altcoyins, in my opinion, can only benefit bitcoin, because if people first learn about the existence of altcoyins, they will surely afterwards hear and be interested in bitcoin.

[Herbert2020]

look at the history. it will tell you all you need to know. we already have 9 years of history and in this period of time we have had tens of thousands of altcoins that have been created, pumped and dumped and eventually many of them died. there are years that they create more of them like last year since the altcoin pumping market is booming during that time but in the end the fate of shitcoins is always going to be death and their short life and death will never affect bitcoin in any ways.

[resty]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

No all of these are tying to build up their own business and unfortunately there's some other coin are not succeed  to their goal and suddenly it will totally closure but these not the threat to bitcoin it seems like competition being popular and more supporters are win.

[chocolah29]

Nope. Just see the current scenario — Bitcoin dips a bit, altcoins dip a lot only strong will survive.

Exactly, this trend tell us everything and what we exactly needed to do.

Altcoin being a threat to bitcoin is just an ambitious move of every altcoin as they're all dreaming that one day they will be on top. Nonetheless, no one will and ever replace on where bitcoin is. The fact that even a lot of bitcoin fork coins were born, trying to imitate what bitcoin had, they even won't touch the bottom of bitcoin.

Don't get confuse with altcoins, some of them were like a rotten ones in crypto sphere.

[BitcoinNewbie15]

Don't get confuse with altcoins, they were like a rotten ones in crypto sphere.

The argument that Bitcoin naysayers use is that Bitcoin is worthless because there are thousands of other coins out there that can be created. Peter Schiff tries arguing this point a lot. Erik Voorhees had the best response to it, which is, sure you can copy and paste the Bitcoin code and make thousands of crap coins, but you cannot copy and paste the community, infrastructure, and development team that supports Bitcoin.

So no OP, no other altcoin can threaten Bitcoins existence. Bitcoin will always be ahead because it is the reserve currency of the crypto space. It will eventually become a reserve commodity for the world. Governments will eventually be buying Bitcoin to hold in their reserves. Bitcoin is far too secure, and the network is far too large for another coin to take over. Nothing can replace Bitcoins killer app of being the most secure store of value outside of any third parties control.

Also, shouldn't this be in the altcoin discussion board? I could be wrong, maybe it fits in Bitcoin discussion since it isn't about any particular altcoin.

[Webberson]

Bitcoin is self dependent and its existence brought about other cryptocurrencies which are now known as Alternative currencies. I believe that no matter how strong an altcoin becomes, it certainly would not be able to take over bitcoin's existence. The previous and current state of the market at every given point in time shows it all.

[Manuel05]

I will say let them keep coming. Bitcoin is forever the big guy every altcoin is looking up to. In the past, alot of  altcoins have marketed themselves with some sort of comparative advantage to Bitcoin. For instance, some altcoins have touted really faster confirmation times; others claim to offer privacy enhancements. But for some reason bitcoinn still remain dominant. Even though Bitcoin developers have focused on implementing their own innovations rather than responding to what’s going on with the altcoin market.
Right now it wont affect bitcoin existence but hey nobody knows what will happen tomorrow.

[palle11]

The market is for bitcoin and nothing more. Maybe in the future, we might see a competition but for now, it doesn't exist.

I think the more we have altcoins, it exposes bitcoin as the dominant coin because many altcoins come but when the wind is blown by bitcoin, they die off. Just like the parable of the sower, sowing seeds with weed, won't lead to any growth.

[AAKODI]

Nah, they can't harm bitcoin.

Those altcoins are trying to surf on bitcoin's wave and enthusiasm. It's thw other way around.

Probably most of hem will just be ignored in a few years or months, as bitcoin has better infrastructure and devs.

You maybe right because of the demand and the popularity of the bitcoin at the moment but considering speed and usability do you think there is a possibility they have advantages over bitcoin to expand more into businesses

[maskeffec]

The presence of a new altcoin will not affect bitcoin. alcoin functions and tasks to be used in a narrow scope of human activity. Bitcoin and altcoin are not practically tangent to their existence. precisely what I see The presence of a large number of altcoins can benefit bitcoin, because if people first learn about the existence of altcoins, surely they also learn about Bitcoin first, then jump into Bitcoin, because Bitcoin is safer than alcoin.

[Assface16678]

Nah, they can't harm bitcoin.

Those altcoins are trying to surf on bitcoin's wave and enthusiasm. It's thw other way around.

Probably most of hem will just be ignored in a few years or months, as bitcoin has better infrastructure and devs.

I agree with this. This is probably just some acts that will only prove that bitcoin is theost powerful coin im cryptocurrency and no other coin can beat it. At the same time it will probably affect altcoins and not bitcoin. Because we can see that there is a huge possibility that the altcoins user will be torn into different coins. With this, bitcoin is still the king.

[davhek]

At the moment literally, none of them is a threat to Bitcoin. And as it seems none will be. Most of them will disappear sooner or later.

[bitcoindusts]

Bitcoin has to think about the ways to compete more rigorously. in the future if Bitcoin wants to survive, it needs to Offer something more.

I do think that bitcoin will continue to innovate itself over time. A revolutionary technology as such is bound to outdo its current features to survive. And i think the forks that occurred, both hard and soft, is a clear indicator that bitcoin is not resting its laurels.

Bitcoin will surely continue to improve itself to keep the edge against all other cryptocurrency out there.

[Kprawn]

Look at it in this way, It will not matter if there are 5 Alt coins with 80% of the investment capital of Crypto currencies or 1000

 Alt coins with that same amount being spread across those Alt coins. The shitty Alt coins will not hurt Bitcoin, because they

do not draw investment capital towards it. The only Alt coins that pose a threat is the ones that are good. They will take a lot

more investment capital away from Bitcoin, than all these shitty Alt coins combined.   

Many of these Alt coins are bought and sold to make a profit and then this profit is used to buy bitcoins. 

[qwerty12]

I see the replacement of Bitcoin as something that cannot be avoided. I always see someone always talking about "being the first" to apply services or technology. I think that person is not familiar with the saying; "First to market, first to fail". Current market prices are a reflection of BTC adopters who do not use coins for anything but trade.

[oceantiger]

Bitcoin is poles ahead of all altcoins. The best they can do now is to play catch up on bitcoin. I know bitcoin has some issues which has to do with scalability and high fees. But bitcoin will also be working on these lapses to mitigate it. Bitcoin has a chunk of the market share and it has the highest price in the market. Even if there will be a time any of the altcoins will attempts surpassing bitcoin that will be in far future.

[vv181]

Mainstream has aware enough about the Bitcoin position in the cryptocurrencies space. I don't think altcoin is a threat to bitcoin rather whole ecosystems. Fact show Bitcoin survive the BCH shill, and the flippening issue.

[MrRiuss]

no, i dont think so. bitcoin will survive from all of them 

[celtic99]

As it stands right now Bitcoin is too dominant on the crypto market, Maybe in the far future (10 years+) something better may come along but for the time being its only btc.

[Olayinka225]

Yes
True we can have an altcoins that can be a threat to bitcoin. But if that's gonna happen, I think such projects must have prepared well, put everything in place and most importantly must have find out where bitcoin is lacking and thr deficiencies of bitcoin then it can work on it. By then I think we can have an altcoin that can be a threat to bitcoin.

[cabron]

It would instead add value to bitcoin because in the end those altcoins are going to be paired with bitcoin but will also add value to the altcoins, this has to work both ways. BTC holders can invest to the altcoin and altcoin holders wants BTC depending to the kind of users, some are putting value to the newer project if it has the potential to add adoption in the market.

[cetald]

Altcoins do not pose any threat to bitcoin. Most of them have a completely different purpose. As for the Altcoins for payments, they will go into oblivion if bitcoin succeeds in solving his problems.

[Docnaster]

I don't think that they directly threaten Bitcoin, I think the bigger probably is that too many coins lead to the total market capitalization being spread too wide, making it very difficult for a single coin such as Bitcoin or even Ethereum to gain much ground as there's not enough money moving around. I think that if 90% of altcoins died, the market would be stronger overall.

[dogtana]

Bitcoin and a few fundamental altcoins can coexist and prosper. Each can have their own unique purpose. None of them is enemy to any other of them. It is clear though that 99% of altcoins will die off due to no usable purpose.

[lelylely]

Even though there are lots of altcoins and they always claim that their projects are the best, but in reality bitcoin is still the best. And from that it can be concluded that the number of altcoins will not be a threat to bitcoin, and in the end bitcoin will remain the best in crypto.

[becak mesin]

I start from the price of bitcoin itself. Basically, bitcoin prices are not influenced by other crypto currencies or often called altcoins. Because Bitcoin has a system and principles that cannot be copied by anyone, and the amount is very limited. So that makes the price of bitcoin is very volatile and unique.

Bitcoin exchange rates are influenced by market demand and supply as well as conventional currencies, the difference between conventional and controlling entities is that, while bitcoin is not. The bitcoin exchange rate is determined or influenced by the Bitcoin holder itself. The more people who store bitcoin, the more expensive it will be because the market demand or supply is little.

However, along with the development of the crypto currency, there are now many hundreds of smelly currency popping up every day, there are approximately 16 thousands recorded. So that makes investors who have capital a little more interested in buying or storing altcoins than bitcoin. This certainly has an impact on the bitcoin exchange rate, because of the reduced market demand for bitcoin. So that makes the price of bitcoin will certainly decrease.

so according to my understanding, I hope the masters can provide more explanations to improve my understanding of this topic.

[emmybd]

It is true that many ICOs are coming everyday, but most of these would fail in future, so i don't think that too many altcoins would pose a threat to the existence of bitcoin. Bitcoin is a well-established coins, so new coins wouldn't match it.

[coincrag]

One way to gauge the "threat level" is by looking at Bitcoin's dominance in terms of percentage of total market cap.  As of today, BTC has around 55% dominance over the rest of the altcoins.  Back in January, the threat of altcoins seemed quite real and alarming while Bitcoin dominance was as low as 32%.  Even then, Bitcoin continued to exist.  One thing to watch out for in the future is if any altcoin overtakes Bitcoin in dominance.  The closest one I've seen almost do it is Ethereum back in June 2017.  If such an event ever came to pass, Bitcoin would still continue to exist.

[burky155]

No, i wouldn't say that in any condition. The Bitcoin is the first and the most powerful coin ever. Also the Bitcoin has the %57 market cap so it has big dominance. There are 1000s of altcoin, unfırtunately most of them worthless with the last market lost. So no coin can race with the farthers of coin "The Bitcon"

[semes]

I disagree with you. On the contrary, Bitcoin threatens the existence of other crypts. Bitcoin already occupies almost half the market as dominance.

[javadsalehi]

I don't think there is a competition between bitcoin and altcoins. Every legit cryptocurrency  has its own purpose. Even if a coin is supposed to replace bitcoin, it's not bad. It can only replace bitcoin if it's better than bitcoin.

[Timmzzy]

I don't think any of the altcoin is a threat to bitcoin definitely all of this coin sooner, we will know which will stay and which will survive the race.

[Escf4]

I do not think so , even how many altcoins surfacing in the market it will bot conquere the popuplarity of bitcoin, the more and more altcoins makes them weak because they are competing with each other while bitcoin is already stable and establish in the market cap ,so it would not be treat for bitcoin the many altcoins.

[kolsernik]

I think there is a possibility that bitcoin may be replaced by some altcoin.There's nothing wrong with that.And this should not be excluded.

[Spaffin]

A lot of different altcoyins are not a threat to bitcoin. Rather, if people see the usefulness of altcoyins, they will certainly learn about bitcoin. In themselves, altcoyins, based on tokens, are used in completely different areas of our lives and generally are not in a position to interfere in any way with bitcoin.

[amar786]

alt coins can never be threat to bitcoin. now days thee are too many companies are launching block chain technology but non of them are trustful than existing companies are. and bitcoin is the mother of all currency and probably the first cryptocurrency. yeah alt coin can effect btc value but not too much.

[josephdd1]

I think having too many altcoin does indeed affect the bitcoin market because it would diminish the overall market cap and thus depreciation in the coins that are worth more value.

[Vickyrichy]

Bitcoin is like the digital currency backing all atcoins. Most ICO project prefer that people purchase their coin with bitcoin, meaning bitcoin is kinda the backing currency to their project. This indicates  that, Altcoins are never a threat to bitcoin.

[Kat_messy]

I don't think that it can make any impact to bitcoin. Every coin or token is different and it will solve different problem or industry in the future. The good thing is, when more and more projects go live, there are more people getting to know about crypto and this will raise it's demand.

[Filthy1]

I personally dont think alts will threaten btc. BTC is the king and will remain the king i also think that with regulation that will eventually occur you will see decrease in shitty alts and only the strong real world use alts will survive.

[mensahkkofie]

I believe the motive of most of these altcoins are as the result of the success story of bitcoin and blockchain technology. The popularity of blockchain technology is on the rise now and as such, many more companies wants to tap into the success story of bitcoin. I believe this is no threat to the supremacy of bitcoin but great addition to blockchain technology.

[drmasa]

They can't be bad, they are good for spreading the word about crypto! A lot of different projects are path to a lot of different users. Not everyone is interested in only sending virtual money so they dont get deep in the matter!

[btcprospecter]

There are a lot of altcoins out there and they can have a negative impact on bitcoin as everything invested into an altcoin could have been invested into bitcoin. It is good to have choice in coins but it does not help when they don't really bring anything new to the table.

[AniviaBtc]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

I guess altcoins can't, just think about what bitcoin brought few years ago its been always the great of all time. Also the trust from the investor, would do investing on a new altcoins when there is something big about bitcoin? just think about the big scams most of the ICO did, do you think that would be enough to transfer the crown from bitcoin to another?

[Singbatak]

This will affect bitcoin. But for a short time, these altcoins will also be forgotten and bitcoin investors will be back.
So, as long as we have the chance we will not waste it, we take advantage of today's cheap price of bitcoin. Because the price of bitcoin will definitely increase in the coming years.

[Prostoper]

NO, The market might be over crowded with useless alts of bitcoin but in the end,

People know what to choose, that's why bitcoin still has the largest market cap of all the cryptocurrencies in existence.

Also, most experts and giants in the field are acknowledging bitcoin more than any other coins,

which gives traders confidence on the coins they picked, hence why the volume is still large even though some coins are gaining traction.

As for the legal side, many countries are starting to draft their own regulations and laws regarding bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

Japan is a fine example of bitcoin's legalization, and other countries would sure to follow suit.

[Rahman11]

Bitcoin is still the most usable coins. Any coins exchange with bitcoin! So it is said that new coins have no effect on Bitcoin market value.

[KesoNie]

There are a lot of altcoins out there and they can have a negative impact on bitcoin as everything invested into an altcoin could have been invested into bitcoin. It is good to have choice in coins but it does not help when they don't really bring anything new to the table.

The growing number of altcoins that been made can truly affect to the existence of bitcoin. Aside from the fact that it may become one of the rivalry of bitcoin in the market this might be also one of the reason for the confusion of bitcoin existence if it would continue to materialize or it would stop from being on top.

[bbcolex]

I don't think its a threat since almost all of altcoins depends so much on bitcoin price, and there main functionality is to serve as an alternative to the original one which is Bitcoin. Though some coin has the potential but mostly they serve as a utility coin or token not as a currency.

[Dudeperfect]

I have always believed that each and every coin has its own philosophy and that's how it works. Bitcoin is solving the issue of peer-to-peer transactions without paying high transaction fees or waiting hours to get transaction confirmed. On the other hand, there are good alt-coins solving a different kind of issues but I don't see any other coin having that potential to replace Bitcoin at least in the coming years.

[OpenCryptoSystem]

Many altcoins will falll.
Hold your btc and eth dont give away for worthless tokens your btc and eth.
Because look the main cryptocurrency sellers are the ones who run ico-s.
So you buy coins from them and then you give back to them.
Altcoins most of them are rubbish.. eth and btc are the best.
Eth and btc price will go up 100%
Orher coins are just rubbish.
If you hold some worthless altcoins you are loser.

[Irvinn]

In my opinion, the appearance of a large number of altcoyn can not damage the bitcoin in any way. With the advent of a new variety of altcoins, the common interest of people to the crypto currency is growing and this also positively affects the popularity of bitcoin as the first crypto currency. I believe that we need the altcoins, even if a significant part of them are useless. All of them will be weakened by the crypto-currency market, only useful and promising ones will remain, and thus, the whole of the whole country will develop.

[invincible49]

The situation is totally reversed from your suspectaion. It is the Bitcoin which is the sole reason why most of the Altcoins and tokens are existing. Some of the altcoins are quite good with thier transaction speeds and low fee. But it is yet to be seen the wider acceptance of those altcoins. Some altcoins may co-exist with Bitcoin and we will see some losing people's interest and value along with it.

[mazdafunsun]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.

Not realy, almost all of the altcoins are shitcoins, they dont take away anything from BTC, they are made just to make invstors belive that they will get their money back with some profit, that is it.
Other popular coins are private coins, these also are not a threat becasue decent vendors wont use them anyways.
Then there is protocol coins which have their own gae, which also does not impact BTC.

I see that the biigest impact of altcoins to btc ir that they are giivng BTC a bad name.

[mimienamphine]

Well, the existence of too many coins could lead to bitcoin been in tight corner as some of those coins could have great potentials of becoming higher in price than bitcoin. Unfortunately, most of these coins are not really showing any great signs of trying to give bitcoin any meaningful competition as bitcoin is still in the lead as the world number one leading digital currency. None of the many coins in the market pose any great threat to bitcoin as most dying out in the markets with zero or no volume in trading. The coins that are coming closer have a difference of about 4000$ dollars per token to be able to get closer to bitcoin which is impossible as far as the cryptocurrency world is concerned.

[JPSelzer]

For several years, there are various altcoins and every year the number is only increasing. So far, this has not affected bitcoin in any way. He was in the first place, so there still is. Perhaps in the future there will be a coin that will be able to compete with him, but so far there are no competitors.

[Gozmoc]

Altcoins' existence was birthed by the invention of bitcoin and bitcoin still stand taller than all the altcoin put together, so there's no need to panic. Bitcoin remains no 1.

[bitcoindusts]

The situation is totally reversed from your suspectaion. It is the Bitcoin which is the sole reason why most of the Altcoins and tokens are existing. Some of the altcoins are quite good with thier transaction speeds and low fee. But it is yet to be seen the wider acceptance of those altcoins. Some altcoins may co-exist with Bitcoin and we will see some losing people's interest and value along with it.

Truly, diversification keeps any ecosystem healthy. Such as fish, you find a pool of species of nearly all kind of shapes and sizes yet there remains expensive ones that sell well in the market. But no matter what, the interest of the people to have them does not wane with the multitude of choices.

And the same goes for cryptocurrency. Bitcoin will be the sought after caviar i guess. And all other altcoins are the rest of the sea creatures that makes caviar worth its price being incomparable in taste and being exotic as well.

[taguig]

They can co exist but i don't think they can surpass Bitcoin's popularity and volume at this point of time, every cryptocurrency lover starts with Bitcoin and they have to go through to what Bitcoin;s have gone through before they can surpass Bitcoin, but they can work together and co exist.

[metalglowd]

threat bitcoin prices ?
Of course it can happen, even it doesnt impact the bitcoin directly.
But threat bitcoin existence till it got nothing ?
i dont think so

Even the sale of scam project can ruined all of target price of the market because people aim's to these project than invest it to the market

[SUDARMONO]

this year there are a lot of ico who are issuing coin altcoins, and in my opinion it will not affect bitcoin, and I think it is also good for the development of bitcoin.

[xuan87]

It can affect the bitcoin price on someway, the investors who supposed to be invest in bitcoin will become splitting their investment into alt coin, but it can't harm too much, because in the end people will back to bitcoin, and because of the abundance of alt coins that appear in the market, the altcoin become weaker

[Anderson_smash]

look at the history. it will tell you all you need to know.

we already have 9 years of history and in this period of time we have had tens of thousands of altcoins that have been created,

pumped and dumped and eventually many of them died.

there are years that they create more of them like last year since the altcoin pumping market is booming during that time but in the end

The fate of shitcoins is always going to be death and their short life and death will never affect bitcoin in any ways.

[umrohyuk]

Bitcoin price is not influenced by Alltcoins, it has own price which very strong and unique because it was created with good foundations. The price of bitcoin depends on the market demand and supply of bitcoin itself. It means that the holder of bitcoin influences the price. However, as the coming so many altcoins todays it has impact to bitcoin price because many investor are move or even spread their money in altcoins. So, when the number of investor of bitcoin is decrease automatically the price will high. It is not threaten, that is my opinions. 

[September11]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

This is a yes and no answer. On one side it is true that the investor's money is diluting in many new coins, on the other side the Whole crypto space becomes stronger by the fact that so many different coins exist. Diversity means an ecosystem, which is something with an added value.

[Al-e_x]

I think that bitcoin always dominates every transaction, for example, today many restaurants accept bitcoin, and reject other altcoins.

this proves that bitcoin is the parent of every altcoin, has great public trust, good credibility, and high bitcoin popularity.

[Cryptotissue]

Bitcoin has the highest market cap looking at the crypto market. Altcoins have no effect on bitcoin in terms of its market volume, cap and value price. Bitoin has no competitor in the crypto world. Most people prefer to do all their transactions in bitcoin.

[newmillennialkingdom]

I agree bitcoin is rising....

[iMark]

For several years, there are various altcoins and every year the number is only increasing. So far, this has not affected bitcoin in any way. He was in the first place, so there still is. Perhaps in the future there will be a coin that will be able to compete with him, but so far there are no competitors.

Yeah you're right every year there will be altcoins coming in and some other altcoins will fall because they can't compete and survive, but bitcoin will still be on top because everyone is comfortable and believes in bitcoin, they make bitcoin a major investment so the effect is not will be so big on bitcoin

[doodle07]

Altcoins and other shitcoins can never be a threat to bitcoin, in the fact that bitcoin is the king among all of the coins in the crypto currency. Bitcoin is the base and they will never be closer to it, it will remain on the top for a long period of time. Bitcoin has the greatest foundation and bitcoin has the influence to the price of altcoins.

[Angelaperry]

i don't think so. Even there are a lot of altcoin nowadays, they still can not threat to bitcoin's existence because bitcoin is becoming more and more popular. i think it is soon accepted worldwide.

[xbossJ]

There are too many altcoins already and bitcoin still maintains a dominance of over 50% what does that tell you!?? Altcoins are rarely heard these days! what you here is bitcoin, even ethereum that is a major force behind ICOs isn't heard as much! Too many altcoins will only drive people away to bitcoin, it gives $Bitcoin credibility and endears the people to it, when most altcoins are failing and losing the peoples trust! Home is always with $Bitcoin, not altcoins. $Bitcoin is popular that is why alts remain inferior, every noob to crypto heres $Bitcoin before anything else. You can have a million altcoins, it will only increase $Bitcoins dominance. they will never threaten $Bitcoin

[wnfakind]

Seem's like we are seeing less and less ICO'S over the past few months due to people actually facing criminal charges seem's to be stopping a fair amount of people trying to pull exit scams. This is good and sooner or later the market will ween out alot of the scam coins and junk coins without any project or use case. It will be nice to see which coin's come out in the end because bitcoin is not the only good coin out there. Some have other use cases and some already outdo bitcoin.. but it will not lose it's spot as top coin.

[Gontxi]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

I don't think the same as you, I think agree almost every time there is a new altcoin emerging from the ICO, but that won't affect bitcoin in a big way. it is precisely bitcoin that will greatly affect all altcoins that have been traded. I just want regulations that can limit ico, for ico who doesn't have the opportunity and tends to just make money quickly, that's what we have to prevent.

Yes I agree on that, I also see from the past few years that there are so many altcoin from ICO but the price of the bitcoin stand still. I believ ethat bitcoin is the most powerful coin on crypto feild and no other coin can affect it. So if we talk about altcoin i see that it is potential coin but it is still depend on bitcoin status.

[Stavr1992]

It is unlikely that a large number of altcoyns will prevent the bitcoin from staying afloat. Bitcoin is now the most valuable crypto currency, and over the years its popularity will only increase

[Olalomi]

Honestly I was overwhelmed with the numbers of altcoins when I checked binance, cryptopia, idex and coss exchanges these coins are too many and cut across different projects however their existence cannot be a threat to bitcoin considering the fact that most of their values which in most cases are relatively small and worthless and competition among them is likened to survival of the fittest.

It's precisely because more and more Altcoins I think other altcoins will die if they don't survive. Because it is very difficult to survive in this crypto world. Therefore, what is harmed here is another altcoin.

[kerjakuat]

in some way it sure make a negative look to bitcoin as lot of these day altcoins are scam. many company'sare trying to make a easy money from it and disappear just like that after the ICOs. so yes the impact will sure goes to bitcoin cause investors feel didnt safe to keep bitcoin so long and being scam after that.

[maflec0713]

Hi. I don't think altcoins can be a threat to bitcoin for even many ICO projects revolving nowadays, bitcoin is still the reference of those altcoins. I think there is no effect in bitcoin even there are many altcoins are growing and those altcoins that cannot compete the trend of bitcoin are sometimes slowly disappearing in the market.

[Cryptogid]

I don't believe any altcoins or even all altcoin can over take bitcoin position, how much more being a threat.. Bitcoin is still the bomb.

[AAKODI]

At the moment literally, none of them is a threat to Bitcoin. And as it seems none will be. Most of them will disappear sooner or later.

Yeah most of them might disappear but the thing is there are some backed by very reputed companies in the global trading industry so son't you think that will be an advantage for other currencies over bitcoin and unlike nine years ago we have to admit that today software development methods are much advanced and with that can some of alternative currencies grasp the business market because of there technological advancement and the benefits they can provide for there users with it 

[AAKODI]

I don't believe any altcoins or even all altcoin can over take bitcoin position, how much more being a threat.. Bitcoin is still the bomb.

Most people say that in the thread I might be wrong but I think we are too soon to decide that because looking into the crypto market anything is possible. But I appreciate your confidence

[Slow death]

Peoplestoken.org - Scam

[ICO] ADVANCE REAL ESTATE - SCAM

[SCAM]- AIRCRAFT ICO - Fake profil, identity theft

Lately number of scam ICOs has increased greatly and this is spoiling the image of the crypto market

Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

do not worry because many altcoins are just shitcoins

[AAKODI]

It can affect the bitcoin price on someway, the investors who supposed to be invest in bitcoin will become splitting their investment into alt coin, but it can't harm too much, because in the end people will back to bitcoin, and because of the abundance of alt coins that appear in the market, the altcoin become weaker

Yeah most do that and most even invest in altcoins to gain short term profits to increase there bitcoin assets but there is a huge range of alcoins that are introducing every day so I am curious can one currency like bitcoin which was developed nine years ago with that technology can with stand such advanced digital currencies that are introduced today. I am not a blockchain technology expert but we can agree that at least for some extend the technology must have been improved until today so that is why I though altcoins might have some winning qualities than bitcoin in many areas and that can decrease bitcoins market share and I still think that

[AAKODI]

I see the replacement of Bitcoin as something that cannot be avoided. I always see someone always talking about "being the first" to apply services or technology. I think that person is not familiar with the saying; "First to market, first to fail". Current market prices are a reflection of BTC adopters who do not use coins for anything but trade.

I agree with your saying and there is nothing to blame bitcoin because it is a great digital asset still but the people who uses only use it to gain profits through investments and there is no considerable level of business adaptation that I see so its qualities and features are in vain wasting between wallets and exchanges

That is right, there is no way that an altcoins are threat for the existence of bitcoin we all know their differences so I would say that there is no effect with it.

[waitforme]

This is a challenge that Bitcoin must overcome if it wants to win all of Altcoin. To stand on his throne, Bitcoin needs to defeat every Altcoin. If you believe Bitcoin can do it, hold it over time to make a profit. Believe in your choices and do not doubt your choices.

[randegibran]

Seeing this, in my opinion, a scenario that occurs when the price of bitcoin falls, many altcoins will not last long, and most are scame

[CryptoToxicAvenger]

Bitcoin for many years remains the most popular cryptocurrency and nothing threatens him yet.Possible to appear a coin, which will make him a worthy competition, but so far there are none.

[pumbum]

all altcon eventually moving into bitcoin, because if they didn't produce results, then this coin sell everything

[OpenCryptoSystem]

In my opinion wich coin will win the race
The coin with limited supply and with fastest transactions with the lowest fees.

Bitcoin i guess will stay as asset, i guess the bitcoin will become like central asset between others.

[Elerntta]

Now there really is a huge number of cryptocurrencies, but not all of them are credible. Therefore, while bitcoin is not in danger.

[WebTera]

I do not know a single coin that is superior to bitcoin in its technology. Although I have studied the altcoins market quite well. Therefore, there is no reason to worry, no one will budge bitcoin.

[Pyr3x]

No matter how good any altcoin, it still can not overtake bitcoin. Bitcoin technology is unique, and most importantly, it already has a huge trust from investors. Therefore, it will be very difficult to shift it.

[OpenCryptoSystem]

No matter how good any altcoin, it still can not overtake bitcoin. Bitcoin technology is unique, and most importantly, it already has a huge trust from investors. Therefore, it will be very difficult to shift it.

This is true !!
Too many web merchants accept bitcoins too
Until we dont see other coins will be more used or accepted by merchants then the bitcoin will be number one.

But what will be second good coin ?

Bitcoin cash? Litecoin ? Ripple ? Ethereum ?

I have feeling like eth will go far

[qumeijia]

It is not impact to Bitcoin existence because bitcoin is different from Altcoins. It was created with very good foundations and methods that can not be adopted by Bltcoins. Bitcoin has its own price and it is not influence by Altcoins. Its price depends on the holders and panic sells also contribute to a sudden price of Bitcoin. Therefore, it is no matter how many coins are coming everyday, Bitcoin will grow independently.

[suvo05]

No matter how good any altcoin, it still can not overtake bitcoin. Bitcoin technology is unique, and most importantly, it already has a huge trust from investors. Therefore, it will be very difficult to shift it.

All of the altcoins whatever it maybe it's price depends very much on the bitcoin price.  It is very important that there should be some good coins around. If too much coin will bring too shit coin in the market then will be a trust issue on the cryptocoin market.
And if there is some really good coin having a quality to overtake bitcoin then that will also be good, but that will not have that much power by which the existence of bitcoin could become unstable. Because it that was the case then the shitcoin would have vanish from the market due to dominance of bitcoin itself.

In my opinion they can't because if we observe the recent announcement made by SEC is Bitcoin and Ethereum only will come under non security tokens and all other ICO tokens will come under definition of security tokens. This ICO scheme is pure form of raising capital through tokens and the project performance depends on team execution and most of the projects have several bugs in smart contracts to generate their tokens infinitely.

So it means no other Altcoin can't reach Bitcoin in terms of Market capitalisation.

bitcoins existence will end with the us dollar and the gambling banksters there,

it will then be more and more considered a nasty POW miner cult.

as long as so many foreigners own us dollar especially east asians and the usa is in a massive foreign trade deficit and the world considers the us dollar as a world currency, people will continue to trash around us dollars and catch attention with buying cryptos

[Naughty Princess]

No matter how good any altcoin, it still can not overtake bitcoin. Bitcoin technology is unique, and most importantly, it already has a huge trust from investors. Therefore, it will be very difficult to shift it.

Bitcoin still is expensive and valuable than other altcoins. No one can replace bitcoin because it is the foundation of all crypto which make it to be the important ones. Many functions of bitcoin is unique where even create new altcoin, it never over takes what bitcoin achieve. Also many are believe in the existence of bitcoin and its potential.

Right.Although lot of altcoins are already entering the crypto world,but surely only few of them have potentials and the rest are only shitcoins.People have already build their trust into bitcoin so no matter what happens,they will surely get stuck into bitcoin.

[Bitfling]

Altcoin have different function than bitcoin. Many altcoin created with different purpose and i think more altcoin can not be a threat for bitcoin. But maybe more altcoin can reducing bitcoin dominance in market because investor will have option to invest

[shesheboy]

Altcoin have different function than bitcoin. Many altcoin created with different purpose and i think more altcoin can not be a threat for bitcoin. But maybe more altcoin can reducing bitcoin dominance in market because investor will have option to invest

altcoins and bitcoins are still the same because they are both cryptocurrency . what alts can do  btc can can also do ( vice versa )  but yes i agree that bitcoin dominance will be reduced because people can now have the option to choose from a wide variety of alts aside from bitcoin . however , not all alts are worth it because majority of them are only a clone of other existing ones which means they dont have a real purpose and might be dangerous if you invest and hodl them .

[reality18]

How can too many altcoins pose a threat to Bitcoin. Altcoins are on the market to fulfil the same general goal of Bitcoin which intends to introduce Blockchain to the people and how well it can be utilized to bring more meaning to lives. Altcoins only buttress Bitcoin and do not kill it.

[lornadane]

No, it won't possible. Everybody must honor the King! Bitcoin is the king and the crypto market leader, so  1700 plus altcoin or if more will come, total altcoin's volume can't be equal to the Bitcoin. Because lots of people don't buy altcoins, they only convert their coins to the bitcoin. If bitcoin transaction speed and cost will improve then 70% of people will move to the bitcoin. So, Altcoin's can't be a threat to bitcoin's existence.

[zolfa]

New altcoins will not affect the value of bitcoin, in general, new altcoins will only create crypto market existence always survive. bitcoin has a high popularity, even today some investors don't trust ICO, and they better choose to keep their assets in bitcoin.

in the future, not all altcoins can be used for payments, only a few altcoins have good progress that will be accepted, bitcoin will master every transaction, and some altcoins that are not used for payment will be crypto trading assets or for investments.

[ubay]

Altcoin in my opinion is just rubbish, and real property is bitcoin. There are many facts that altcoin only runs a few moments and then disappears, but not with bitcoin. Since its inception until now he is still there and circulating.

[yndye]

Altcoin in my opinion is just rubbish, and real property is bitcoin. There are many facts that altcoin only runs a few moments and then disappears, but not with bitcoin. Since its inception until now he is still there and circulating.

It's funny that you are promoting an altcoin and then saying that is rubbish. If you really believe so then you should not promote an altcoin instead. As for OPs question, I don't think too many altcoins is a threat to bitcoin because as long as there are people who believes in bitcoin's existence and use it for investment or for currency then the demand would always be there. Sooner or later, those altcoins that are use for its actual use case would continue to exist while those that are just existing for trading would be gone.

[kucritt]

i think no, many altcoin is not affected bitcoin anymore, but bitcoin is affect all altcoin and other cryptocurrency, if bitcoin down the altcoin price is down and if bitcoin price is up the price of altcoin and cryptocurrency is up too, so bitcoin is affecting the altcoin price not the altcoin affect the bitcoin

[gabbie2010]

None of the altcoin can serve as a threat to bitcoin because majority of them are created to serve a certain purposes or project and its good to have many of them it will bring a healthy competition in the market however there are a lot of duplications among the coins thus making a lot of them worthless and irrelevant.

[Crypto Girl]

Approximately, those altcoins has design into specific product and bitcoin don't need a product to build a demand since itself is already a mainstream. We already have thousands of altcoins and it's still counting, do you think that bitcoin demand affect those? It didn't. And it obviously happen the other way around, when bitcoin fall, altcoins fall harder. Bitcoin surge, altcoin left hanging. See?

But what will be second good coin ?

Bitcoin cash? Litecoin ? Ripple ? Ethereum ?

Kindly exclude bch, for everyone's sake.

[Miklight88]

I don't see any reason they will be a threat to btc in any way, the sky is wide enough for all birds to fly, likewise for crypto and since many are coming out everyday we have not see any effect of negative to the market but improvement.

The only major issue is the scam aspect of it is what we all should look out for on how we can stop it and let the crypto be known for good name not this scam and hack of a thing.

[fattyforhire]

Altcoins now really appears just a huge amount. But are they all promising? Of course not. Among these projects, only a few are worthy of our attention.

[Sanjida]

In my concept the market is for bitcoin and nothing more.because it is still costly and worthy than other altcoins.bitcoin will master every transaction.so altcoin's can not bitcoin's existence it will be very difficult to shift it.

[minhlee95]

It is difficult to count how many coins there are. But none of them will be able to surpass bitcoin, because all these ideas can no longer be unique, since bitcoin was created first.

[jademaxsuy]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.

No but it is the opposite because this altcoins are really helpful for the crypto market to be lively that includes other crypto as well. When one new altcoin introduce to the market it will be paired for trading depending on its platform (usually ERC20). The trading pair will act as a receiver for when an investors will going to pull out his/her investment on that coin. Literally Ethereum is one alternative coin for bitcoin whatever good it may had it will reflect also to bitcoin.

[rtm125]

No, the more they are created, the more their value is reduced. Very few really good projects that can somehow improve the world. Therefore, at the moment bitcoin has no competitors.

No...as bitcoin is the main currency in crypto all of the alts will depends on the bitcoin price and this is the reason that many investors and traders will invest in bitcoin.

[Anderson_smash]

The altcoins have a long tradition in the Bitcoin community, but tend to cause a controversy between those who think they are useful and those who think they're all scams. One view is what keeps Daniel Krawisz, of Satoshi Nakamoto Institute, who argues that altcoins have no chance of success and distract potential users of Bitcoin, while on the other extreme are many supporters ethereum, ensuring that platforms like Bitcoin and ethereum can work together.

The only negative impact will be the negative reputation they will give to cryptocurrency in general. When this altcoins turns out to be scams it gives a bad impression towards Crypto. Bitcoin will always be king that no shitcoin can over thrown. Bitcoin will dominate the crypto market and it's dominate will increase with time because many will realise their mistake of choosing shitcoin (that scam them) over bitcoin and mend their ways.

[sukoyomi]

in my opinion, with the many new altcoins appearing, it will be better. because with the ico project, means that cryptocurrency will become increasingly popular, and people will be very confident that bitcoin has a bright future.

[LyQaN]

We can't give an exact statment about this.Maybe altcoins can become a threat to Bitcoin's existence or may be not.Crypto market is very unpredictable.So we can't say what will exactly happen in the future.Many coin's are available in the market but still Bitcoin is dominant of all.We are observing that many coin's are growing on a decent rate so maybe in future some other coin overpower Bitcoin. But I feel that it will never happen. Bitcoin will always lead the cryptocurrency market.

[Malam90]

Many new ICO projects are coming and enter into the cryptocurrency markets i agree but it is not threating to Bitcoin at all. Cryptocurrencies are the supporters of Bitcoin and Bitcoin dominates all coins.

[Galaxyfrop]

Altcoin being a threat to bitcoin is just an ambitious move of every altcoin as they're all dreaming that one day they will be on top. Nonetheless, no one will and ever replace on where bitcoin is. The fact that even a lot of bitcoin fork coins were born, trying to imitate what bitcoin had, they even won't touch the bottom of bitcoin

[maksimukr1989]

If there is a demand for altcoins more than bitcoins why not.They can become a threat to the existence of bitcoin.Nothing is eternal under the moon!

[gabmen]

Many new ICO projects are coming and enter into the cryptocurrency markets i agree but it is not threating to Bitcoin at all. Cryptocurrencies are the supporters of Bitcoin and Bitcoin dominates all coins.

Yeah it's the other way around even. Btc affects alts whether in a positive or negative way but alts, whatever their numbers are, will hardly affect the way btc moves. For now that is. That's how dominant btc is in this cryto market.

[Ayush rana]

yes it can be threat full for bitcoin because Crypto market is all about popularity and product of particular project.
there are some coins which are actually competitors to bitcoin . But Bitcoin do have more dominant power than any other as of now

[pallang]

There are so many altcoins energung in the market but no one can ever beat butcoin they just stay at its back because we all kniw that bitcoin is still the number one and the most popular coins ever.

[doom553r]

for now. bitcoin is hard to beat.

[boltz]

Not at all. Bitcoin has nothing to do with altcoins and most of them are just following the bitcoin course. Just pay attention in what projects are you investing and what coins are you holding because there is always the risk that some coins can collapse and you don't want to be a holder of any of them.

[randegibran]

the negative impact of many ico projects alone is that there are more scam and unsuccessful projecks, I think bitcoin is still the best and will continue to be used

[maxreish]

Despite of having thousands of altcoins out there, no altcoins will gonna harm bitcoin. They will not replace it nor beat bitcoin. Altcoins are created to give chance others to atleast afford some kind of crypto coins aside from bitcoin. But this doesn't mean that they are created to destroy bitcoin.

[N4bil4]

The presence of altcoins will not affect bitcoin, most experts and giants in this field recognize more bitcoin than other coins,Bitcoin will always be the best because bitcoin is the reserve currency of the crypto space,I think altcoin is not a threat to the bitcoin ecosystem,bitcoin will stay on top because everyone feels more comfortable and trusts bitcoin.

[Flexibit]

yes ofcourse investors divert their capital to those alts that for them that alts can give them a good profit so it is a threat to the bitcoin price to have a value like last year.there are lots of ICO in the market that really have a good purpose that is why investors see that kind of investment too.

[Nanda Dewi277]

yes ofcourse investors divert their capital to those alts that for them that alts can give them a good profit so it is a threat to the bitcoin price to have a value like last year.there are lots of ICO in the market that really have a good purpose that is why investors see that kind of investment too.

the point is actually the same, coin that has technology that is increasingly sophisticated and has good stability will be number one and the longer it will be more and more people know and believe it. bitcoin is really very famous for now, maybe bitcoin will still be a stable and good coin.

[ClassyDancer]

In my opinion, the existence of so many cryptos actually creates a very dynamic market that can stir enough interest from people who can learn about the concept more. And you know what they say about competition. It will only bring out the best in these products. Will bitcoin still come out on top? Only time will tell. May the best crypto win!

[Winkletoss]

all the alt coins are based on bitcoin technology, so if something with as same hype. That would be a long time from nos ^^. Without bitcoin the Othee alt coins are nothing

[Johnzky]

IN a way yes,because the nore the merrier since bitcoins domination is continuing in progress with more than 50% of shares

I am looking forward about this because maybe things will change in the value segregation because now more altcoins are eating by the growth of bitcoin

[Flor1982]

There is possibility that it might happen in the future that Bitcoin might superseded by Altcoin but the question is when? This is possible like if all big whales will unite in conspiracy to dump the Bitcoin currency in the future and then they will pump like the Ethereum to succeed so everything is theoritically possible but not very likely to happen.

[Allura74]

This is possible like if all big whales will unite in conspiracy to dump the Bitcoin currency in the future and then they will pump like the Ethereum to succeed so everything is theoritically possible but not very likely to happen.

I think its not a threat to bitcoin since bitcoin is the pillars of crypto currency it will remain the most popular and king of all the coin and altcoins  is always dependent on bitcoin value because bitcoin is the main actor on crypto currency, I obserbed that there are many people wants to have altcoins just gain bitcoin.

[thesmallgod]

I personally do not think the numbers of altcoin have influence or serve as a threat to the existence of bitcoin. if you look around today you will see we already have so many altcoin with many more being introduced to the market every day. 99% of altcoin are being paired directly on exchange platform with bitcoin which mean the price directly depend on bitcoin and today when you see bitcoin price dropping then you will realize that the price of altcoin also drop.

[Rooster101]

It will take more time before some altcoins become a threat to bitcoin. They have to match the achievements of the leading coin for the past years including its price and market capitalization. These altcoins hopefuls should also match the popularity of bitcoin to get more support and attract a lot of investors. Ethereum is the nearest competitor of bitcoin but it is unlikely to become a threat to the top cryptocurrency.

[thesmallgod]

There is possibility that it might happen in the future that Bitcoin might superseded by Altcoin but the question is when? This is possible like if all big whales will unite in conspiracy to dump the Bitcoin currency in the future and then they will pump like the Ethereum to succeed so everything is theoritically possible but not very likely to happen.

nothing is impossible but the possibility is narrow and very tough. the reason is because non of the altcoin which is the subject of the matter is more accepted as a medium of payment than bitcoin. in fact some people do think bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency because that is the only crypto they have heard often and on. this is so because it is the oldest crypto and alot of services have been rendered using it. even only few ICO today do not use BTC as payment option.

[darkangel020716]

Bitcoin cannot be threaten of any altcoin in the market, because all of the altcoins are depending in bitcoin,  maybe there are some altcoin has more updated and good features than bitcoin but it is not mean that it can be threat. Bitcoin is bitcoin and altcoin is just an altcoin there is no being changes about that.

[Bobtong]

Unlikely altcoins can affect the market now, Bitcoin is overwhelming but in the future it should be the case, so many projects and ideas, at least several of them will be successful and influential

[Leyss]

Like any other crypto currency, bitcoin needs to constantly improve and be competitive, otherwise sooner or later it will lose its place as the leader of the crypto currency. In general, the presence of a large number of varieties of altcoyins is not a threat to its existence. On the contrary, such a large number of diverse and promising coins and tokens attracts people's attention to crypto currency and bitcoin from this only wins as its leader.

[ElsieHSeder27]

Altcoin being a risk to bitcoin is only an eager move of each altcoin just like all envisioning that one day they will be to finish everything. In any case, nobody will and ever supplant on where bitcoin is. The way that even a great deal of bitcoin fork coins were conceived, attempting to emulate what bitcoin had, they even won't contact the base of bitcoin.

[AAKODI]

Like any other crypto currency, bitcoin needs to constantly improve and be competitive, otherwise sooner or later it will lose its place as the leader of the crypto currency. In general, the presence of a large number of varieties of altcoyins is not a threat to its existence. On the contrary, such a large number of diverse and promising coins and tokens attracts people's attention to crypto currency and bitcoin from this only wins as its leader.

IT is true if bitcoin to survive in the future it needs to be improve both technically and financially because most new digital currencies that are coming to the market are equipped and build with advanced feature and methods so if bitcoin to compete with them its definitely has to improve than today because it is possible at least a considerable amount of users will move on to altcoins from bitcoin if this wont happen because even bitcoin is very demanding the usability and convenience that other currencies can provide will attract more users. 

[ajiejot]

For me YES, specially those altcoins that are scam, that is really big impact to Bitcoin, not only to bitcoin but also for the crypto community, but it's there's also a good side of having lot of altcoins, because it will help the adaption of the crpypto, so overall, it's all okay.

[ibrar.noman]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

i dont think so , they can't harm bitcoin it still have lot of space to capture the market .

[ribowo76]

Because too many projects are adopting blockchain technology, it will provide a gap for people who have evil intentions. And finally, it will indirectly slow down the expansion of bitcoin. But I believe, when everything is ripe. Nobody will be able to prevent, the expansion of bitcoin on a large scale 

[Chicksteen]

the negative impact of many ico projects alone is that there are more scam and unsuccessful projecks, I think bitcoin is still the best and will continue to be used

Bitcoin is always the best and even new coins had been created it will never affect the existence of bitcoin because it is the foundation and most popular among any other coin which can everyone can trust. Too many altcoin is not a hindrance for bitcoin to make it grow.

[MoonLouis]

I don't agree with you. I think Altcoin can not harm to Bitcoin and threat to bitcoin's existence because If bitcoin die, i think altcoin will also die

[boyptc]

Negative impact is if the number of scam ICOs grow, bitcoin will be affected. The newbies and people who don't understand crypto's will likely to point out the blame to bitcoin and will call it as a scam in general.

[Barcode_]

There is actually nothing to worry about the huge number of altcoins emerging in the crypto-currencies trading market, I believe experienced traders would still prefer to focus their trades on bitcoin in the trading market as the demand for bitcoin is obviously much more stable than most altcoins, there is even a lot of bitcoins ATMs around the world, and this is definitely a good sign to indicate that there is huge demands for bitcoin as compared to altcoins.

[richman3451]

the bitcoin is not how it can not affect at least because most of the new altcoys are tied to the ether air, too, or how it does not harm just the time will come when many companies will cease to exist this is distressing but this can not be avoided anywhere

[yugyug]

It is been almost ten years in existence in the crypto world but the bitcoin is still dominating no matter how many of altcoins will rival the bitcoin's supremacy in the crypto market, as of today there are many altcoins that offer the best feature of what the bitcoin is lacking of but still crypto investors and enthusiast continue to patronize bitcoin. The more altcoins exist the more trading pair opportunity will be for alts-btc coin trading. The more the merrier.

[Roberttran]

I think there are many more altcoins. It can not affect bitcoin but vice versa will make the bitcoin price increase stronger. All altcoin values ​​depend on bitcoin.

[rosemary4u]

I don't agree with you. I think Altcoin can not harm to Bitcoin and threat to bitcoin's existence because If bitcoin die, i think altcoin will also die

Exactly the point, bitcoin is the leading cryptocurrency and I believe all other altcoins are learning from the success story of bitcoin. The altcoins can't do without bitcoin. The altcoins are only following the success story of bitcoin, this is the real issue on the ground hence bitcoin has no competition.

[novakamena]

It is been almost ten years in existence in the crypto world but the bitcoin is still dominating no matter how many of altcoins will rival the bitcoin's supremacy in the crypto market, as of today there are many altcoins that offer the best feature of what the bitcoin is lacking of but still crypto investors and enthusiast continue to patronize bitcoin. The more altcoins exist the more trading pair opportunity will be for alts-btc coin trading. The more the merrier.

Bitcoin, while it has a lot of close competition from other altcoins is still the leader of the pack. A few altcoins that are popular in the cryptocurrency market are Ether (Ethereum), Litecoin, Dogecoin, Peercoin, Feathercoin, Zetacoin, Novacoin, etc. Ethereum and Litecoin are seen as Bitcoin’s closest competitors.

[rasp]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

So far there are only several altcoins that are accepted by some businesses together with btc - ethereum, litecoin and maybe another couple I've never seen.
In this way, I can see no reason for bitcoin to be replaced by other alts in the nearest couple of years unless these projects launch their mainnets or ready products.
We should also keep in mind that acceptance of a new method of payment could take months (not to say years), so btc will be "the king of jungle" for yet quite a long time.

[Jack Ment]

I don't think so. Altcoins are far from being a threat to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency. Of course, I don't mean that the first will always win, but Bitcoin is the most reliable and best functions compared to the other cryptocurrencies. There are some Altcoins thet are pretty good but most of Altcoins are useless.

[Samantha Walker]

I think it more or less affects Bitcoin but Altcoins can hardly become a threat to Bitcoin. In the short term, too many Altcoins but of low quality will get people under bad impression of crypto ingeneral. But in the long term, I think Bitcoin, with its reliability, won't be surpassed by these current Altcoins.

[IndigoRed]

Sure. The presence of other altcoins can impact bitcoin. It contributes to price volatility, right? But at the same time, it helps bring out the best in cryptocurrency (with all these coins trying to outdo each other) In the end, we could have a cryptocurrency that combines all their best feature. What do you think?

[goldSkylark]

The existence of many altcoins has its pros and cons. A pro would be the market drawing attention, and this means more people will become aware of crypto. A con would be all these altcoins contributing to bitcoin’s volatility. However, analysts predict that only one crypto will be used in the future, especially when everything goes digital. We’ll just have to wait and see which crypto will it be.

[gangem07]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

I don't think it can happen although bitcoin's price changes a lot everyday and has seen many highs and lows over in the past years but bitcoin is the number one cryptocurrency and the biggest cryptocurrency and it has 40% share in the total market cap and it will still dominates in the market therefore all altcoins depend only in bitcoin.

[xvacator]

I think the altcoin and the bitcoin will work differently but still can help us to make a profit. I don't think that the altcoin can harm or become a threat to bitcoin, and I always think that the altcoin will help bitcoin to reach more people in out there and makes cryptocurrency grows more. Both altcoin and bitcoin still work together in the cryptocurrency, and it still attracts many people to come and join in the cryptocurrency until now.

[OpenCryptoSystem]

We must undestood what is going on on the crypto market before we panic or make conclusion.

The market is biggest then ever before.
There is so many on going ico-s so the ico sellers are the biggest btc and eth sellers on the market.

As we see the there must be very high demand of buy orders for btc, and eth...offcourse if the buy order demand is higher then sell then the price should go high... but its not like this now?

The reason for this is coz the ico tokens sellers selling their btc and eth for cash.

Now the ico token sellers are the ones who got a lot cash.
Soon they will place the large buy order the price of btc and eth will go about back to 20000$ now many of you feel happy about it you are going to sell your coins.

So you will make profit...then the market will drop down around 10000$ ' then the ico token sellers will buy btc and eth again.
So the price of btc and eth will go highest.

Im not sure about the tokens or many altcoins... but i know the main coins like btc eth ltc will be strong.

[PitbullP]

I don't think so. Even altcoin is developing more and more but it will never can threat to bitcoin's existence

[leavolnhals]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.

I think it does not affect Bitcoin too much. Because this is a free market and harsh. The bad ICO projects will eventually be eliminated. that is the rule. So that is the main factor helping the crypto market to be developed and maintained forever until now.

[Ale75Opus]

No. Especially now, when there are a lot of alcoins on the market that can not even exist for a long time, and even more so they can not replace bitkoyn. This will not happen

[Ale75Opus]

I don't think so. Even altcoin is developing more and more but it will never can threat to bitcoin's existence

I would not say that the alcoins are developing now. You look around, a lot of fraudulent altcons, and really promising coins are very few

[Edgegeraldine]

I don't think so, there are too many Altcoin will create the bustle in the crypto market. The cryptocurrency market needs diversification and healthy competition to create common interests.

[Goldenmoll1988]

I think that too many altcoins will not lead to chaos, as the ICO market operates a natural selection, and then those projects survive, the team of which has the potential to do something else

[Ruth Ellis]

No way ! Altcoin can only exist in short terms and it has many risks than Bitcoin. Besides, there are many types of altcoin that it is difficult for investors to determine which altcoin can make profits fast. Moreover, altcoin is not as safe as bitcoin so it has status '' pump and dump''. Anyway, Bitcoin is still the best choice for investors in cryptocurrency.

[Kathleen Rego]

Don't worry about it! Altcoin was created base on the alternative crypto and the price of Altcoin is lower than Bitcoin. Furthermore, Bitcoin is more stable than Altcoin so investors will be easy in staring with cryptocurrency. Anyway, I think the smart investors will know how to invest rightly.

[Rony24h7]

I think that Bitcoin has, in the mean while, gained traders' confidence. Therefore, it is though to threaten Bitcoin's existence while it has polished up the market of digital decentralized payment system. The least effect that too many Altcoins can do is to denigrate the market coverage of Bitcoin for a certain period, but Bitcoin won't take a long to recover its market coverage.
Although too many Altcoins cannot become a threat to Bitcoin, it scams are a greater threat while the more there are scams in Bitcoin, the more traders will lose their confidence on Bitcoin. Therefore, it should be under shield to reduce scams and strengthen its market coverage. Taking steps to reduce the number of scams will popularize Bitcoin in a great extent. So, Bitcoin's future depends on the reduction of the number of scams that are causing people lose their confidence on Bitcoin.

[bjmpoker001]

I think the existence of many altcoins will not become a threat for bitcoin, as you can see now.
There are already many coins created in the market, and no one have surpassing the bitcoin position in coinmarketcap.
I guess it is not easy for new coins to gain trust for peoples to hold the coin.

[dreamhouse]

Altcoins will only complement Bitcoin, will not be able to take over Bitcoin, despite it's the dream of every single altcoin.

[rindayle]

I think it's saying those people who do not understand the market. It's like the store is among the few goods to take the best of there are also. Investors look closely, analyze and choose the coin that is promising in their opinion. At the moment, bitcoin is the best and other altcoins do not interfere with it.

[conected]

Altcoins will only complement Bitcoin, will not be able to take over Bitcoin, despite it's the dream of every single altcoin.

- It's not just the dream of every altcoin, it's the dream of so many people holding the altcoin, they always hope their altcoin can overthrow the era of bitcoin and become a new king but they might have realized that dream has become dust. The bitcoin's roots are too deep in the field, want to threaten the existence of bitcoin, it's just a funny thing, instead of thinking so, we can think the opposite, the existence of bitcoin threatens to altcoin because the value of bitcoin affects the price of altcoin, if the bitcoin no longer exists, altcoin is also unlikely to continue to grow

[OpenCryptoSystem]

I know about market very well.

What we see now is equal buy/sell order.

The others coin can not be treat 100%

The better coins are there the better the bitcoin will be.

[Vaculin]

All altcoin will have to bow to the bitcoin. The more solid projects of altcoins we have, the more fund will flow into the system and the better the market. which is even good for the bitcoin itself as more and more tokens are been traded against it. In reality, no altcoin can ever contest with the bitcoin. Just take a look at BCH, you will understand this.

Yes.Altcoins may grow in number but we cannot deny the fact that bitcoin is still the best crypto coin up to the present time.Nowadays more and more altcoins are now existing but i don't think they can stand the test of time unlike bitcoin that it has survived all throughout the years.

[aryaadikariyansyahsuwarto]

I think as much as any new altcoins emerge, it won't give any negative influence to bitcoin, because bitcoin is the main goal of all altcoin investments. So that altcoin buyers will eventually exchange it for bitcoin. So bitcoin still stands tall even though altcoins come in as much as anything ... !!

[princesspoppy]

I don't think Bitcoin will be affected by new altcoins in the market. Bitcoin has been there for almost a decade and we can see that it remained the king of all cryptos after the ups and downs it experienced. Every altcoins depends on bitcoin's price, that is the reason why bitcoin can't be threatened and beat by any altcoin.

[realcrypto]

With proper observation of coinmarketcap. I realized that bitcoin have the highest fraction of money in the coinmarketcap even when numerous coins are being listed on daily basis, this means bitcoin cannot be displace, even during ICO bitcoin is the most accepted means of payment. Too many Altcoin's will make bitcoin to go higher in price.

[Cryptomania843]

All altcoins are not a threat to bitcoin. Bitcoin is far ahead and his altcoins can not hurt him. The problem with all its after-effects is that in all that happens there are surely very interesting altcoins but the fact that they are huddled with the others is not visible and passes sometimes unnoticed. This is a pity.

[Snyderfx2]

Altcoins cannot become a threat in any way soon unless bitcoin itself become incompetent in significant areas to reach common people because today more people seek convenience, reliability and security as significant and most cryptocurrencies provide competitive features to accommodate such qualities to there users for an example mobile version of wallets and transaction facilities so if bitcoin and its network failed to provide such facilities to help its users I think that is the only way it can fail but not because altcoins   

[Siren]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.

No they have no bad effect in bitcoin itself instead the threat is for the whole cryptocurrency community

And good example of this are those scammers,the trend continues as these damn people behind this illegal activities and this action causes alert to the potential investors,and a hard feelings to those victims

And if this will never stopped then lets face reality that even bitcoin will die in newr future because this is a domino effect

[Snyderfx2]

Agree with points that has mentioned because unlike in the past today many altcoins are worthless and incompetent and there is a huge amount of ICO projects that are just launched to fool people and steel there investments so majority of altcoins wont become a threat to bitcoins future but we need to agree that there are certain amount of effective and capable currencies in the market but if bitcoin can adapt and improve with the future needs properly even potential altcoins won't become an issue for its success

[cutecute]

I think altcoin can not become a threat to bitcoin existence because it is not connected even they both cryptocurrency.

[adolf512]

I do not think that altcoin can somehow influence the development of bitcoin, since most coins do not have a working product and stop in development. On the contrary, the price of all altcoins depends on the bitcoin price, and it is difficult for me to assume that any of the coins can replace the importance of bitcoin for the crypto-currency industry.

[babysky18]

Yeah right, bitcoin is the basis of the market price and this is the currency used by all altcoins, It will really hard to believe and hard to think that altcoin can become a threat to bitcoin.

[Hasukodaki]

i think it's hard bro. because now bitcoin is more popular than the other

[89shaky]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.

Do not forget that although in recent times a large number of altcoins really began to appear, most of them are scammers. I think that there has not yet appeared such an altcoin that could beat bitcoin

[89shaky]

i think it's hard bro. because now bitcoin is more popular than the other

Indeed, popularity is an important factor. Now almost every pupil knows about bitcoin, and the new altcoins will have to go a long way to reach this popularity

[ellabanana]

It might be but it can never turn down bitcoin. With its popularity it would take so much effort to exceed it. It has been an established currency and people trust it already.

[gowobonyok]

can not. the more ico, the more it makes the altcoin market chaotic. too much, and making old coins that survive in the market for pump prices, it will be even more submerged by new coins. I don't think for now, unless etherum can do it.

[Elerntta]

It seems to me that such a large number of different altcoins even strengthens trust in bitcoin, because the absolute majority of altcoins created do not have any real value.

[WebTera]

It is unlikely that any of the altcoins will be able to surpass bitcoin,since this trust of people to it was created for many years and will not be able to quickly go back in time. Although you can not say 100% that this will not happen.

[DiabolicAnt]

I think when some company decides to launch their own currency, they don't even consider banning BTC because it obviously would cut off many opportunities for them. So I don't think such alts are a threat.

[rtm125]

I have little faith in the fact that someone can really create a technology better than bitcoin. The fact that it was created first among all cryptocurrencies gave it a huge advantage, which is difficult to destroy.

[reverseflash]

If we consider the subject from the point of view of probability theory, then the more altcoins - the higher the chance that there will be an altcoin that can replace bitcoin. But in practice so far it turns out that bitcoin serves as an unattainable standard, which partly affects the cost of altcoins.

[Tahsin Kabir Kollol]

That is not possible that too many Altcoin's can become a threat to bitcoin existence. Bitcoin is the main cryptocurrency and it his own features. All altcoins price are affected by bitcoin. we can not think other altcoins without bitcoin because of bitcoin is the most trustable cryptocurrency in crypto world. So too many Altcoin's cannot become a threat to bitcoin's existence.

[A.H.Rassel]

In my opinion, it cannot happen because Bitcoin has a strong influence on the altcoin market and most of the altcoins price depends on bitcoin price moving. Bitcoin is the most popular cryptocurrency and without bitcoin, it is hard to think about altcoins. So I think too many altcoins do not become a threat to bitcoin's existence.

[cosmoo]

No, most altcoins are useless and I think that someday they will cost nothing. So they can't affect Bitcoin somehow. Bitcoin is alright

[btcformula]

No way. Maximum alt coin running now in mass marketing & influential marketing. All this altcoin enough path to go to prove , in the meantime BTC will reach far better place.

[yoseph]

No, most altcoins are useless and I think that someday they will cost nothing. So they can't affect Bitcoin somehow. Bitcoin is alright

I believe in the end a lot of cryptocurrencies are going to become worthless but I think the likesame of ETH and BCH will last for a long time. They are all not going to poise any problems to Bitcoins at all but rather they are going to be very reliant on it.

[xvacator]

I think the existence of altcoin can help bitcoin to grow especially for getting more people to come to the cryptocurrency because people will come by reading or watching for the altcoin. The altcoin makes promotion for their project, and people finally found their project and join with the project, and in the end, they will know that bitcoin is the king in the cryptocurrency and this makes them buy bitcoin too.

[Izanamiki]

bitcoin now is very popular in the world so. many coin appear just make bitcoin prices go down

[Katystrong]

It is impossible. Too may altcoin don't mean that it can threat to bitcoin's existence. The more bitcoin develop, the more altcoin develop but altcoin always depend on the action of bitcoin

[liseff3]

Apparently what the OP said was true with many altcoins being launched meaning investors' funds would be widespread (not focused on bitcoin). Well if the conditions are really like that, then the decline of investor interest in buying bitcoin too cannot be avoided.

[yanesna3]

I think the existence of altcoin can help bitcoin to grow especially for getting more people to come to the cryptocurrency because people will come by reading or watching for the altcoin. The altcoin makes promotion for their project, and people finally found their project and join with the project, and in the end, they will know that bitcoin is the king in the cryptocurrency and this makes them buy bitcoin too.

Many of these tokens are the so-called shitcoins, the alts that will vanish soon, and everybody will forget about their existence. No one new crypto can affect the value of Bitcoin.

[Ahimoth]

Many of these tokens are the so-called shitcoins, the alts that will vanish soon, and everybody will forget about their existence. No one new crypto can affect the value of Bitcoin.

Even there are too many Altcoin nowadays they can't still beat Bitcoin existence because this coin is survive for many years and remain best to all. Altcoin created by some people who want to beat and some of them create because not all people can buy Bitcoin also its supply is limited only, so that altcoin exist and it grow even more when many people get interested to it.

[sakokinak]

bitcoin now is very popular in the world so. many coin appear just make bitcoin prices go down

No, the great number of these new tokens will never affect Bitcoin's price. Vice versa, BTC can become even more popular and more expensive. Many of the shitcoins will die.

[emberbekas]

bitcoin now is very popular in the world so. many coin appear just make bitcoin prices go down

No, the great number of these new tokens will never affect Bitcoin's price. Vice versa, BTC can become even more popular and more expensive. Many of the shitcoins will die.

The number of altcoins will not be a threat to bitcoin because bitcoin has become so popular. Every time we talk about crypto currencies, the first thing that comes to our mind, mostly, will be bitcoin. And the reality on the ground to date, even though there have been a lot of altcoins out there, bitcoin remains at the forefront.

[Eraldo Coil]

No, i don't think so. Bitcoin is too big for altcoin to be a threat to it. Bitcoin and altcoin runs on a two different world in cryptocurrency. And also most of the altcoin really depends on the bitcoin what i mean is that their movement depends on the price of bitcoin because most of the investor are getting their money on bitcoin to invest it to altcoins.

[richman3451]

I think that the altkoins can not harm the bitcoin either, since the altcoyins are fixed to the ether and the altcones are coins that are used in a particular direction and bitcoin covers all directions

[namcunguyen]

I think that the altkoins can not harm the bitcoin either, since the altcoyins are fixed to the ether and the altcones are coins that are used in a particular direction and bitcoin covers all directions

Altcoins will not affect Bitcoin, but it will make Bitcoin more stable. I also have time to look at the chart and see the prices of most Altcoins are also based on the increase of Bitcoin.

[xvacator]

I think the existence of altcoin can help bitcoin to grow especially for getting more people to come to the cryptocurrency because people will come by reading or watching for the altcoin. The altcoin makes promotion for their project, and people finally found their project and join with the project, and in the end, they will know that bitcoin is the king in the cryptocurrency and this makes them buy bitcoin too.

Many of these tokens are the so-called shitcoins, the alts that will vanish soon, and everybody will forget about their existence. No one new crypto can affect the value of Bitcoin.

Yeah, I know that but some of these shitcoins can give us the opportunity to gain the profit, and I still want to use the coin for a long time until I cannot get that benefits from the coin. I agree that there is no new crypto can beat bitcoin, and I don't think that the altcoin can become a threat to bitcoin because the altcoin is followed what bitcoin did.

[bitbunnny]

Altcoins are not threat to Bitcoin. In fact you can look at them as a healty competition.
It's true that market is very divided and new coins appear all the time, many of them tending to take Bitcoin's place but that is not going to happen because only few altcoins are actually worth mentioning.
So the affect of altcoins on Bitcoin in negative sense is actually zero.

[SilverCup08]

No, I don't think so at this point. It will be hard to over take the position of bitcoin in the current time unless something comes out in the future that is totally flawless meaning, there will be unlimited supply in mining, a lot safer even if you lose your password, and probably run by AIs but that's not gonna happen until perhaps decades from no so for now, BTC will remain on its position.

[Teebass001]

I believe it is not really a major threat, but it is not healthy for Bitcoin in the long run. A lot of folks are investing a fortune in this Shit coins, monies that are supposed to swell Bitcoin market capitalization. But because investors wants crazy returns on their investment, they rather invest in this new coins which are mostly scams. The Devs will cash out eventually, thus crashing the market.

[passeroutpass]

Currently, the majority of altcoins technically bypass bitcoin. But despite this, bitcoin is the first coin by market capitalization.

[basyang]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

Let we say, there are lots of altcoins nowadays, everyday they developed a new altcoins to different ICO project. However, even if there is so many altcoins out there still. Bitcoin is in the top rank, because many people knew it. They can used it in many transactions and sometimes it is used to games coins and others. So I think it is not a threat to bitcoin because I am confident that they did kot yet create a coins that possible can be threat to bitcoin.

[Airbuxf]

As much as new ICO's can't do any harm towards bitcoin they can harm the crypto community. Lot's of those ICO's are there to sam people out of their money and make people afraid of investing in the cryptomarket.

[mika1977]

Most coins are regular copies of bitcoin, they do not carry anything new, what threat can they make?

[Olayinka225]

I don't any altcoins can be a threat to bitcoin as at now, because I haven't see any of them getting it right against bitcoin. Some of them have to work on where bitcoin is failing but none of them have  done this, so I don't see any of them becoming a big threat to bitcoin.

[zarintasnim]

I think  lot of altcoin are not threat of bitcoin. Bitcoin is top all time every other coin follow bitcoin and also price effect on bitcoin. So many bitcoin are good for cryptocurrency. Its covered large field of world economy. No altcoin can effect on bitcoin.

[bitcrypt_09]

I think new cryptos like AML BitCoin will be the next bitcoin in the market. AML BitCoin rests on a privately regulated public blockchain that facilitates AML-KYC compliance and identifies criminals associated with illicit transactions while maintaining and strengthening the privacy protections for legitimate users.

[pinoyden]

I think  lot of altcoin are not threat of bitcoin. Bitcoin is top all time every other coin follow bitcoin and also price effect on bitcoin. So many bitcoin are good for cryptocurrency. Its covered large field of world economy. No altcoin can effect on bitcoin.

why not ? imo atlcoins are a threat to bitcoin because it can divert attention . like for example a guy who is a die hard bitcoin fan before altcoins arent popular but after some altcoins are invented , that guy will become curious to try those altcoins .

that simply means  the demand for bitcoins will become lesser overtime . how much more if there is an altcoin that is much better than bitcoin in terms of overall specs and stats ? for sure all people will be eager to switch on it , leaving bitcoin behind .

[Sobocirevo]

Most coins are regular copies of bitcoin, they do not carry anything new, what threat can they make?

Bitcoin will not be defeated by Altcoin, because the determination of altcoin prices is converted from the price of bitcoin. This already shows that the altcoin class is under bitcoin. Even bitcoin is "life" for all altcoins, if bitcoin dies, all altcoins die.

[Ucy]

How about "Can too many Social media become a threat to Facebook existence?"
 Well, it kind of depends on Facebook ability to innovate, and the quality of the competing Social Media.


So, can too many Altcoins becoming a threat to Bitcoin?
  It also depends on Bitcoin users ability to innovate and  depends on the quality of the competing altcoins.   Principle is more important to Bitcoin  than just features. And I doubt any coin can easily surpass the price of Bitcoin though.

[Angna27]

For me bitcoin have a NAME now and nothing can surpass bitcoin, and we know bitcoin have dignity all around the world. Bitcoin now is unstable but i believe bitcoin will rise again before the end of this year. Many altcoins create but some of them are failed but bitcoin is still standing.

[paulk11087]

I certainly don't think they're gonna hurt the bitcoin. Regardless, all the coins in the market are affected by the bitcoin movement. That's why it's hard for them to let them go. I have not yet seen the existence of such a project.

[Bitkoyns]

I guess no because bitcoin is different even eth is different every coin has different and they have their own uniqueness the only threat from bitcoin is the investors that are diverting the investment because they see the market is better for a short period of time.

[wewe123]

Even how many altcoins surfacing in the cryptocurrency world , it will not be become a treat to bitcoin existence , from many years now bitcoin is battle tested and still it is existing in more popularity and gaining more trust from the investors and still rising to the top, so there is no need worry about bitcoin because it is maintaining the good position in the cryptomarket cap.

[blokceyin]

Not for the near future. They can only feed its prophecy. Bitcoin is the mother of dragons.

[aliza393]

Only if there are many altcoins that offer:

1. Better or equivalent security.
2. Better or equivalent liquidity.

Would love to know what the community thinks about potential competitors

[Callanta787]

Not at all, bitcoin stands on its own ,altcoins cant become a threat to bitcoin in any way and a matter of fact all altcoins have there differences too ,no matter what ,bitcoin will still be the last one standing

[dificanovi]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

so far I have not seen the negative impact of the many altcoins being created. I see the price of bitcoin always stands at the top of the price of altcoin, I also haven't seen an altcoin that can beat the price of bitcoin.
bitcoin has functioned as a payment tool in various countries that have received it, besides that some ICOs also accept the purchase of their tokens with bitcoin, so I think the price of bitcoin will be more expensive if more and more ICOs are created.

Nope! Altcoins will remain Altcoins and they are not a threat to Bitcoin as they are created on different platform, purpose and of course the so called adoption. Bitcoin has been dominating years after years and I don't see a single Altcoin that is strong enough to eliminate or make Bitcoin crash. Ethereum is the closest Altcoin when it comes to marketcap but it doesn't possibly mean that it will beat Bitcoin in  the next days, months or years but it needs much time for Eth or Altcoins to dominate Bitcoin.

[maianh09]

Most coins are regular copies of bitcoin, they do not carry anything new, what threat can they make?

I agree with your opinion. Altcoin is a replica of Altcoin that has its ecosystem, such as Ethereum, NEO. Since it is a copy, it can not intimidate the main entities so why should we fear it, it can make an impact on Bitcoin?

[raking]

Most trading platforms use Bitcoin as their base currency, leading many investors to buy and sell Bitcoin to sell and buy Altcoin. When Bitcoin started a strong rally, many Altcoin fell, as investors jumped on Bitcoin and vice versa. This is systematic because most of the trading platforms require Bitcoin to trade rather than legal currencies.
Also, when Bitcoin prices drop or increase compared to legal fees, all Altcoin also increases or decreases. Because the Altcoin price is based on the Bitcoin rate, not the exchange rate with legal fees. The value of an Altcoin compared to a certain currency is the value of Altcoin compared to Bitcoin, followed by the Bitcoin price when compared to the legal currency.
Thus, Bitcoin has a very strong influence on market prices.

[Andrey13101991]

Currently, there are altcoins, which are technically more successful and more convenient than bitcoin, but the capitalization of bitcoin does not become less. It is still popular, so I think that the situation will not change in the future.

[Yaunfitda]

Currently, there are altcoins, which are technically more successful and more convenient than bitcoin, but the capitalization of bitcoin does not become less. It is still popular, so I think that the situation will not change in the future.

Yeah, there's a lot of altcoins out there that is quicker than bitcoin in terms or confirmation time, but they don't care because bitcoin has enjoyed a lot of support from all of us.

So in a nutshell, they can't really put a significant dent on the price of bitcoin. We have like more than 1000 altcoins already and counting but bitcoin remains the dominant crypto's.

[Fedor07]

No, I don’t think so . There are already to many altcoins and bitcoin is still the same , its not affecting bitcoin . There are a lot of coins with a hight value and still bitcoin is used more than all of those coins , why ? ‘Cuz people know what  to choose, they choose whats the best . If there will be more altcoin they are not gonna harm bitcoin , not at all. There are some altcoin out there which are better than bitcoin but still bitcoin is more used that the others.

[The.Bet.Group]

If anything, I think the increasing number of altcoins can help Bitcoin grow even further. Bitcoin is number one, and without it, the entire concept of decentralized payments will be pretty much non-existent.

[cc80aa]

I dont think so altcoin can be treat to bitcoin excistence because too many altcoin also are scam some are very low price some are stable price. I think no altcoin has sign to overcome bitcoin the latest is riple but if ever have altcoin surpass bitcoin i dont think so is for long but for me i choose the best no other than bitcoin..

[kyle999]

Bitcoin is the only one can manage its self's price because bitcoin is not dropping its price if altcoins dropping for their price and bitcoin is more than expensive for altcoins.

[goodluck0319]

a large number of Altcoins will still be converted to bitcoin sooner or later, so this is not a threat

I dont think it will threaten the development of Bitcoin. You know, in order to thrive, the market needs to have many different altcoins catering to many different areas. Diversity will make the market more selective and make its value higher if the technology is good.

[iamaruf]

No,too many altcoins can't become threat to bitcoin existence.I think it is good for bitcoin.If altcoin become popular then bitcoin will be more popular. if you see the trading chart when bitcoin price dump altcoins price also dump.Actually altcoins depends on bitcoin.Though this is not true 100% but most of the time it happens

[Romeoetin]

They actually need bitcoin to survive. Most of their performance depends highly on the value and performance of bitcoin.

Almost all the crypto currencies were introduced together say in 2009 and since then bitcoin is the only currency that has made such s tremendous progress and due to its massive success, bitcoin presently on the top of crypto ranking and millions of people around the world are now investing into bitcoin, though no doubt competition always brings some threat to the progress but not that much that it would endanger the existence of that and there is no doubt that bitcoin is very sustainable crypto currency and no one can endanger its existence.

[bitcoindusts]

Currently, there are altcoins, which are technically more successful and more convenient than bitcoin, but the capitalization of bitcoin does not become less. It is still popular, so I think that the situation will not change in the future.

So in a nutshell, they can't really put a significant dent on the price of bitcoin. We have like more than 1000 altcoins already and counting but bitcoin remains the dominant crypto's.

It's really incomparable as of the moment as bitcoin enjoy a wide pool of trust, support and activity from supporters and enthusiast. Bitcoin's value will be very hard to beat. We don't see any real competition right now when it comes to worth as bitcoin remains the most valuable by miles. The capitalization tells it all, there's no denying that bitcoin remains to be the most sought after crypto till date making it invincible to any threat posed by altcoins. Altcoins will never be a threat, rather, altcoins are paving way for bitcoin's improvement every time they come up with disruptive approaches such as faster confirmations, smart contracts, etc.

[bitfocus]

no, but they are definitely making crypto look bad to the common people.

[Arhaan10]

Bitcoin is forever the big guy every altcoin is looking up to. In the past, alot of  altcoins have marketed themselves with some sort of comparative advantage to Bitcoin. For instance, some altcoins have touted really faster confirmation times; others claim to offer privacy enhancements. But for some reason bitcoinn still remain dominant. Even though Bitcoin developers have focused on implementing their own innovations rather than responding to what’s going on with the altcoin market. Right now it wont affect bitcoin existence but hey nobody knows what will happen tomorrow.

[Udrujec]

I doubt very much that there is an altcoin now that would be better than bitcoin. Otherwise, everyone would be talking about it now and actively investing in it. So I continue to think of bitcoin is king of crypto-currency market.

[kwakufavour]

In my opinion, no other altcoin can be a threat to the King of all cryptocurrencies which is Bitcoin. Bitcoin is commonly known worldwide than all other altcoins as it paved way for the alts.

You correctly noticed that tokens are  applied , as a rule, by separate business structures to increase the efficiency of their activities. That is, they do not overlap with the interests of Bitcoin and therefore cannot harm him. I believe that on the contrary, the increase in the number of coins and tokens will cause an increasing interest in cryptocurrency and at the same time to its leader. As for capitalization, in order not to lose it, Bitcoin must be improved on time and be competitive among other cryptocurrencies.

[nikola22]

no, but they are definitely making crypto look bad to the common people.

there are many good altcoins that attract investors and users. coins should come a long way from development to recognition and only few will become great.

[Jackolantern]

I don't think that there is anything that can prevent btc from the great success. To my mind, it is better to invest in btc now and wait until the price for btc increases and the market recovers

no
actually all altcoins or tokens depend on bitcoin
98% who have a pair to fiat is bitcoin to cashout
that's why if the price of bitcoin goes down then the altcoin too
bitcoin still dominates the cryptocurrency market for now

[nightfury]

It may make sense that some investors will shift some of their investment's fraction to go to another cryptos but at the end of the day, it's always been bitcoin that will dominate the cryptoworld. I also believe that most of these alt coins will not survive in the market as the competition gets tougher each day.

[wahyu5]

Their existence does not become a threat to bitcoin, because in fact in the cryptocurrency market bitcoin prices are always the basis for crypto price movements, each crypto is always moving to follow the bitcoin price movements. Thus, it can be ascertained that bitcoin remains a king in cryptocurrency and always leads the cryptocurrency market, for that the existence of altcoins and other coins will not be a threat to bitcoin.

I agree that bitcoin will always remain the king or all crypto, and it serves as the leader of all alts so no way for those other coins to become threat to bitcoin. They remained under the economy of bitcoin due to more trading sites we're exchanging most of the alts towards bitcoin market. Basically that's the reason why also bitcoin has become volatile during bearish market. When bitcoin dumps, alts also will perish on each price so all of a certain scenario really accumulated.

New altcoins that appear every day and disappear same fast can't be a threat to a stable almost 10 years old bitcoin. It is like a mouse threating an elephant. No chance. I think for each altcoin will be a buyer, user, just the market will expand with more selection of altcoins for any wallet (sum) and purpose.

I think there is no direct evidence that the altcoin can be a treat to bitcoin, because as what we all have seen there are to many altcoin today but still bitcoin is standing hard like it is really always the king of all crypto coin. So then I believe that there sis really a great big hope that bitcoin will rise up high someday.

[deppil]

Thats right mate. how many altcoins that will arrive will not make a serious threat to bitcoin. instead it will make indirect promotions on bitcoin. because bitcoin is the basis for altcoin prices right? so people will use bitcoin indirectly. I think bitcoin will continue to be the king of cryptocurrency. no matter what happen

[anavir]

for me no,and it is answered so many times.Many altcoints have created but it still never surpassed the popularity of bitcoin.Bitcoin investor have trusted bitcoin before until now

Absolutely agreed, and to add up, every new alternative crypto currencies that are sprouting all over the crypto currency realm has a pairing with Bitcoin or almost all of them has a pairing with Bitcoin and with this scenario these new altcoins are all dependent to the growth of Bitcoin. To be honest most of the alternative crypto currencies that are sprouting like mushrooms all over crypto space will end up as a shit coin. Bitcoin is been in this industry for almost a decade and Bitcoin has proven a lot unlike those new altcoins and Bitcoin's security level is at the highest ranks when you compare it to others.

I admit that there are also good altcoins out there that have awesome, useful and unique features but I don't think that they will be a threat to Bitcoin or they will have a chance to replace Bitcoin on the top rank.

[vonnyaries]

too many altcoin and the ICO project is not affect bitcoin existence, but i think it will makes the investor confused to choose their best project, and at the end many project and investor that will be loss because their plan is not like they want,

Being the pioneer of cryptocurrency no any altcoin's that can stand toe to toe bitcoin now a days, although lot coins exist in the market place but still it is still dependent with bitcoin, as a based currency, because bitcoin is being recognized all over the world.

i think it will be difficult to overthrow bitcoin. considering that the marketcap has gone too far, so it needs big funds to drop it. we know that all altcoins now have a dependency on btc, like they can't escape

[TheKeyLongThumbI]

Believe it or not, they are going to die naturally in the process on this kind of market. Let's make an example of a product of shampoo or soap, only 2-3 are leading brands because of the great trust they got from their consumers. Same thing will happen and altcoin of each category will only less than 10 for sure that will continue to survive. Numbers are not a threat but quality.

[Affilate User]

no matter how much altcoin is created, the altcoin will never be able to beat bitcoin, because this bitcoin is the king of all cryptocurrency, the price of the altcoin will follow the movement of bitcoin prices, when the price of bitcoin falls, the price of altcoin will also fall and in some cases it often happens.

With more and more alt coins being released on a regular basis, there's bound to have at least one of them will kick bitcoin's butt in terms of feautures. It's probably bound to happen because there are a lot of alt coins out there with better features but is not under the limelight.

[mkhadazz]

as long as the created ICO project has a good concept and has a product that is very useful and can be one of the solutions to the world's financial problems, this will not be a threat to bitcoin, but if there are many ICO that fail, even a lot of scam ICO are circulating will create a threat to the world of cryptocurrency including bitcoin.

[Bonnie113]

With a history of development, Bitcoin is the king of digital money. In this area, investors have a stronger belief in bitcoin than any other currency. Altcoin tends to be more than but it doesn't threaten the existence of bitcoin.

[Goodnuel]

The springing up of numerous altcoins can maybe saturate the market, but they can't become a threat to bitcoin cos bitcoin remains the king of all coins... All other coins without a strong dev will eventually fade away.

You are right, there are really too many altcoins, but you do not forget that more than half of them are scam. And now think about how these projects will be able to supplant the great Bitcoin?

[TentallyMooN]

With a history of development, Bitcoin is the king of digital money. In this area, investors have a stronger belief in bitcoin than any other currency. Altcoin tends to be more than but it doesn't threaten the existence of bitcoin.

And I am sure that every experienced investor will prefer to buy Bitcoin than any other altcoin. I do not want to say that there are no prospective coins among the altcoins, but still they are very hard to find. Better not to risk and choose Bitcoin

[Andika23]

I think that altcoin that are born or new have no effect on bitcoin, bitcoin is king of crypto, all coins depend on bitcoin, if bitcoin is experiencing an automatic decline the price of other altcoins will drop, no one can rival the price of bitcoin, bitcoin will remain number 1 in cryptocurrency. Maybe the negative impact for bitcoin is only on the many ICO scam projects that make investors start to fear investing in the ICO they will invest in bitcoin safer.

[bajingluncat]

in my opinion it will not affect bitcoin, as much as any altcoin that appears, it will not reduce people's interest in bitcoin, indeed lately there are some altcoins that are in great demand because of good prices and cheaper transaction costs, but the first is not maybe replaced easily, I see bitcoin is still existent, especially towards the end of this year many people are curious about whether there will be another bubble, everyone is looking forward to it, hoping that good predictions will come true

[richman3451]

I think that this is not how it can not affect the Bitcoin as many Altcoins are attached to the Bitcoin ether is a little different and they do not intersect

[adamtruongkz]

It does hinder the bitcoin (and cryptocurrency) ecosystem in general. People getting scammed by scam coins/tokens and the publicity of the news about the scams are getting gives people a bad impression of bitcoin/crypto. The market might be overcrowded with useless alts of bitcoin but in the end, people know what to choose, that's why bitcoin still has the largest market cap of all the cryptocurrencies in existence.The presence of a large number of altcoyins, in my opinion, can only benefit bitcoin, because if people first learn about the existence of altcoyins, they will surely afterwards hear and be interested in bitcoin.

[trauchot]

Why would it, as we see in the market, bitcoin demand is 50+ percent more than other cryptocurrencies, and so it will be at least for a long time, because a lot of alts use bitcoin technologies, while this will continue, bitcoin will be first in technology and other opportunities.

[Phan Long]

There are too many Altcoins appearing in the market. It does not directly affect the price of Bitcoin, but it indirectly affects Bitcoin. The emergence of so many Altcoins makes the market so saturated. These things will affect the electronic money market.

[stigmacryptonight]

We definitely don't believe they are going to harm the actual bitcoin. Irrespective, all of the cash on the market are influenced by the actual bitcoin motion. This is exactly why it is difficult to allow them to allow all of them proceed. I've not really however observed the actual living associated with this type of task.

[conected]

no matter how much altcoin is created, the altcoin will never be able to beat bitcoin, because this bitcoin is the king of all cryptocurrency, the price of the altcoin will follow the movement of bitcoin prices, when the price of bitcoin falls, the price of altcoin will also fall and in some cases it often happens.

- Especially as the situation right now, the price of bitcoin has brought the altcoin market to the bottom of the deep, and that makes me feel this topic name has something wrong, the name of the topic should change backwards, it would probably be more reasonable. Many experts and investors always predict that some altcoin will be able to touch the bitcoin's position and then beat and replace it but this high mountain is still a stable state, facing many enemies but it is still very comfortable, altcoin as newborn babies want to fight adults, the chance of winning is zero

Hmm i just think the opposite with more and more altcoin it Will increase the price of bitcoin cause surely on the end it Will certainly always be exchange with bitcoin so the demand for bitcoin Will be more and more, and the price sure be rise

[ChristinaPi]

The fact is that altcoin can not harm to bitcoin because bitcoin is the strongest coin in crypto world. Bitcoin accounts for more than 57%, not any coin can threaten to bitcoin's existence

[BlackRacerX]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

I think yes. This is because eventually, one of these tokens will eventually become better tokens compared to bitcoins. There are features of alt coins today that are being looked into by alot of investors so this will most probably be a thing in the near future.

[Yadamosan]

No they can't

Because bitcoin is their way to transmit the money so what will be the reason for them to harm the bitcoin, besides bitcoin is still the top1 on the Cryptocurrency Market Capitalization

[kamodoran]

Selection will continue to occur over time, there will continue to be many altcoins popping up and that in my opinion is a good condition. Only those who believe in existence of bitcoin in the future will got opportunity.

in my opinion, maybe this is what causes the price of bcc to go down because investors are getting more choices if they want to invest in cryptocreency and cause their money to be divided into romvarious ico, there is a positive and negative side in my opinion, the downside might cause the price of btc to decrease due to the coin Other coins will be more popular (although this hasn't happened). the positive side is that we as investors and traders have more choices in investing in cryptocurrency and not just fixing on BTTC, and if you do the right analysis maybe because of the many ico will make you reduce the risk of your losses in trading.

[Osayo]

Too many altcoins is not just a threat to Bitcoin but to the entire cryptocurrency world. They are creating a lot of confusion everywhere which is why people don't know if they should still believe in crypto again or not.

[rindayle]

My opinion about the fact that altcoins can affect bitcoin is, Yes! But despite the fact that if bitcoin starts to cooperate with governments and legalized, then no. The whole point is in demand, if bitcoin solves all these problems, respectively, the demand for it will be greater than for altcoins.

[jerrison]

the birth of altcoins is simply the new innovation come to reality and also creating a standpoint for people to make manifest what projects they have in mind and generate enough funds to that effect. it does not in anyway change bitcoin but magnifies the technological framework. thanks

[Chrisjay29]

I think many altcoin can effect the price of bitcoin. The only effect bitcoin price is fud and panic sell. For me altcoin is one of the promoters of bitcoin. Because if you see in the exchanger all altcoin token want to exchange at btc.

[Coroline]

it all depends on each project, if the project has good benefits it will make the altcoin worth the price, and I don't think bitcoin will lose its existence as a king of coins, we can say bitcoin is USD from the existing fiat currency

[Caxton10]

Most of these altcoins are utility tokens and hence have a limitation when it comes to their use. They will however offer some competition which I think bitcoin can be able to withstand.

[Mariela]

Yes it is threatening the bitcoins value.
There is possibility of bitcoins become useless . Because of so many altcoins the we can use instead of bitcoin and more affordable than BTC .

[cryptovigi]

Today, bitcoin remains most recognizable cryptocurrency for 80 – 90 % of society. Honestly one year ago i didn’t even know there are others cryptocurrency on the market. Even today we have 2.000 cryptos/tokens on the market but bitcoin is more than 50% of whole market. So in near future 2-5 years it’s  domination will remain unchanged.
You know what’s funny I know some policeman who works in cybercrime department, I talk with him few months ago an he DIDN’T EVER HEAR ABOUT ETHEREUM – that means something!

[thunderbitz2717]

Well of course not, bitcoin is the original virtual currency unlike altcoins is a utility tokens which is showing the usages or telling why the communities need to use it. Then,bitcoin is the highest price value it has on this industry, the most popular also compare into crypto's. And Bitcoin most acceptable as payment in any business comparing into crypto's as well.

[lornadane]

No, absolutely not. Rather I think too many altcoins are good for the Bitcoin popularity. Every ICO project owners respect the bitcoin because Bitcoin is the leader of the crypto industry. Every traders and investor buys Bitcoin at the end of the day. They may invest with Ethereum or they buy Altcoins. But to cash or to hold for a long time, most of the people rely on bitcoin. That's why Bitcoin dominate the crypto market alone, and all others 2200 Coins are dependent on bitcoin movements.

Altcoins are made because there are things that bitcoin could not do. Cryptocurrency becomes popular due to the numerous project made using coin. These innovated projects help bitcoin to boost more. That's why I don't think they could harm bitcoin. In fact, they help cryptocryptocurrency to grow more.

[anhhung409]

I do not think so. Most Altcoin on the market are based on Bitcoin or Ethereum. So, if more and more Altcoins are present, it will increase the value of Bitcoin. So, it's totally beneficial. However, the appearance of more and more Altcoin makes the appearance of garbage more and more. It reduces the reputation of Bitcoin in particular and virtual currency in general

[Vohoanghiep]

This will not happen. Bitcoin is too big and it will not be able to crash just because more and more Altcoin coins are available. On the contrary, Altcoin coins are based on the value of Bitcoin, so it is dependent and can make Bitcoin is becoming more and more powerful.

[cybersofts]

Nah, they can't harm bitcoin.

Those altcoins are trying to surf on bitcoin's wave and enthusiasm. It's thw other way around.

Probably most of hem will just be ignored in a few years or months, as bitcoin has better infrastructure and devs.

No way, it is impossible for altcoins to hurt the existence of bitcoin because they are on different levels. the bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency and why would the too many altcoins become a threat? Too many altcoins might rather affect the value of Ethereum because when there are too many coins in the market there might be ETH price fluctuations due to high altcoins pumps and dumps.

[wolfdragon]

This will not happen. Bitcoin is too big and it will not be able to crash just because more and more Altcoin coins are available. On the contrary, Altcoin coins are based on the value of Bitcoin, so it is dependent and can make Bitcoin is becoming more and more powerful.

Yes, this will never happen because nothing can beat bitcoin and bitcoin is the basis of the price of all the markets. Altcoins will never replace bitcoin.

[cryptohunter]

no alts increasing will dilute alts to death so they will all vanish bar a few
the rest of the fanfare and hype they have created will flow back to btc as you are seeing now.

the wave of people that got burned hard and have fled back to cash will return and stick to just btc in future

[BigBos]

I don't think like that. even I think that the more altcoins, the more it will strengthen bitcoin. well, we've seen how bitcoin has become very high because of altcoins. I am sure, when the development of altcoin is done quickly, so is bitcoin.

[Qurelal]

Altcoins are a threat to bitcoin and a joy to us. A new altcoin can be more modern and faster. Bitcoin was a pioneer but his time is already passing. It's too outdated.

[cryptohunter]

Altcoins are a threat to bitcoin and a joy to us. A new altcoin can be more modern and faster. Bitcoin was a pioneer but his time is already passing. It's too outdated.

Wrong - alts are mostly snake oil pretending to work on solving and insoluble problem with todays available hardware and networks

all these 2.0 3.0 10.0 are sacrificing the important things to get fake gainzzz

there are a few good alths with specific use cases butt hey do not improve apons bitcoins design really they are just more specific in their target user bases

[gorodi]

in my opinion it will not affect bitcoin, as much as any altcoin that appears, it will not reduce people's interest in bitcoin, indeed lately there are some altcoins that are in great demand because of good prices and cheaper transaction costs, but the first is not maybe replaced easily, I see bitcoin is still existent, especially towards the end of this year many people are curious about whether there will be another bubble, everyone is looking forward to it, hoping that good predictions will come true

No one of the existing altcoins can ever affect Bitcoin. The tokens have their own life but they all also depend on BTC. Suppose, many of them will vanish in 2-3 years.

[Sirait]

I think Altcoin is not a threat to Bitcoin, it is precisely Altcoin that makes Bitcoin increasingly known because before Altcoin was launched they made an ICO, and the ICO certainly used social media as a tool for promotion, and besides, the current price of Bitcoin will not be defeated by Altcoin.

[ranman09]

Most of this ICO projects are there to be traded not actually to be used, as it's meant to be. Still, BTC and ETH which are the common cryptos are mostly and will be, accepted in the near future because of its stability, strength, popularity, and long history.

I don't see alts replacing bitcoin anytime soon.

[tikaka]

Yes, that's right . There are now many altcoin in the market. Some altcoins are lined up on the floor and some altcoin is not appreciated. There are many altcoins that cause the market to be diluted. This also affects bitcoin because there are many fraudulent ICO projects. This problem brings a lot of negative issues for bitcoin.

[doanlang]

In my opinion, Altcoins will have its own development. There are also some Altcoins based on the Bitcoin platform but it can not affect Bitcoin. Because Bitcoin has its strength and own trend that make people always want it.

[evichi]

To many altcoins are rather a threat to themselves. The gap between bitcoin and the altcoins is such that it will takes many years for any altcoin to get closer to bitcoin. The marketcap (coinmarketcap) is a clear evidence. What should rather concern us is the altcoins are rather competing among themselves and as such making themselves much more worthless except the very few that have distinguished themselves as well new ones that are strong. Therefore, the numerous altcoins, in my opinion, is not a threat to bitcoin.

[gorodi]

Yes it is threatening the bitcoins value.
There is possibility of bitcoins become useless . Because of so many altcoins the we can use instead of bitcoin and more affordable than BTC .

I do not think so. The huge number of different cheap tokens is the proof that no one of them can ever replace Bitcoin. They are not a threat for the cryptocurrency #1.

[DPrillio]

Yes it is threatening the bitcoins value.
There is possibility of bitcoins become useless . Because of so many altcoins the we can use instead of bitcoin and more affordable than BTC .

I do not think so. The huge number of different cheap tokens is the proof that no one of them can ever replace Bitcoin. They are not a threat for the cryptocurrency #1.

Yes, because bitcoin is the foundation of all the coin in crypto market and since it is the first most accepted coin in crypto market and until now its popularity are continually spreading world wide, its true that there are a lot of new born coin but still they can't beat bitcoin, by the value alone they have no match to bitcoin.

I don't think so mate, in fact, some altcoins or majority of them I think in my perception bitcoin is there reference in some other ways. It shows only that the system of bitcoin has a big impact into business industry, especially in the blockchain technology. Though, we all know that Bitcoin is the Father or mother of crypto currency, so meaning none of the crypto's don't have a capacity in our time to surpass it.

[smile1218]

I think altcoins can do no harm to bitcoin because the value of bitcoin is very far from the altcoin even the top 2 in the market cap would have a hard time to reach the value of bitcoin. Maybe in the future there could be altcoin can replace bitcoin but definitely it would take so many years before it would happen.

[Desmond1656789]

I agree with you. Bitcoin today has a very large audience and a very large capital. Altcoin needs a lot of time to achieve this level. But I think that if Altco reaches Bitcoin, he will not remove him from the market.

[HanaBin]

There is more and more kind of altcoin in the market , it can decrease the marketshare of bitcoin, but I ave strong belief that bitcoin play an important role and have huge impact on coin digital

[bitcoinveda]

in the decentralised economy there is no limit or control for creating altcoins there can we any number of altcoins but still bitcoin is unaffected in near future we can see strong bitcoin like before

[dianepot]

Even the most potential ICO's cant beat bitcoin. Bitcoin is the beginning of everything. Just like the scenario as of this time, when bitcoin dips, altcoins does also. Bitcoin really affects any othe altcoins. So if there is no bitcoin, there will be no altcoins too.

[Desmozgenes]

I dont see it happening,that too many altcoins endanger Bitcoin.On the contrary,most of the altcoins and thier projects will die,as most of them money grabs,and have no practical use or reason to exist.

On the other hand,too many altocins can endanger good ICO projects,simply because too many projects,and investor are too deluted over so many different projects,ao i think thats the bigger danger,but that will be sorted too i think.

[Kick]

I think it is not possible. I don't see any of them becoming a big threat to bitcoin. Bitcoin has a very strong influence on market prices. I saw if the price of bitcoin fall, then altcoins price also fall. If the price of bitcoin increases then altcoins price also increase. So we can say that bitcoin is life for all altcoins if bitcoin dies then all altcoins will die. And there is no need to worry about bitcoin because bitcoin stands on its own.

[NEERAJ ANAND]

No coin is a threat to bitcoin as bitcoin is the leader of this market and every new or old coin follow it. Many altcoins will disappear in future which are a pump and dump coins but bitcoin will survive forever.

[Jian_Liux]

All possibilities can happen, the existence of a new Altcoin can also threaten bitcoin for the future, but until now I see that the price of bitcoin is still the highest, and I see in the crypto market that bitcoin transactions are still the highest too. This means that until now bitcoin has remained the best and I hope bitcoin will remain the best at any time by always improving the security system and transactions that can make all bitcoin users feel safe and comfortable with bitcoin.

[Dominic_Johnson]

I don't believe so - alternatively, I believe that bitcoin is a threat to altcoins. In an area that outsiders are already wary about (until they jump in and invest), bitcoin is a familiar name that people are more drawn towards whereas all these 'other' altcoins are unknown and appear as even more volatile to many

[labilaab]

This was in my mind also. I think it has an impact to bitcoins price since the more altcoins being produced in market the more the volume of crypto investors be divided.Hoping there will be a halt on producing tokens everday.

[Teawhalee]

I don't think there is any threat anywhere that can affect Bitcoin. For now there is not one that can do that. I am saying its not possible but presently, its far fetched. The king Is still on the throne.

[authpaperICO]

I think the altcoins cannot affect bitcoin as they are by far less popular and the liquidity is too low. What can really harm bitcoin is that if a big country issue its own cryptocurrency and gives it the same legal acceptance as its own currency. But it should be very unlikely.

[xabre]

Not yet, how much altcoin listed at the exchange market will no have effect for bitcoin it self, bitcoin could stand by self and make how altcoin price, when bitcoin on fire altcoin will be pump and at higher price.

[keanne_isaac]

I don't think it will affect Bitcoin negatively since altcoins will also use Bitcoin as one of the trading pair in crypto exchange this may help increase the demand for Bitcoin.  And altcoins has usually unique service that may not hinder the growth of Bitcoin so for me the effect maybe more on positive rather than the negative side.

[Sevarchik]

Atcoins is already too many on the market.
Altcoins with better perfermance and functions.
But btc still #1 if alts can beat bitcoin its happened 3-4 years ago

[kaisa]

All possibilities can happen, the existence of a new Altcoin can also threaten bitcoin for the future, but until now I see that the price of bitcoin is still the highest, and I see in the crypto market that bitcoin transactions are still the highest too. This means that until now bitcoin has remained the best and I hope bitcoin will remain the best at any time by always improving the security system and transactions that can make all bitcoin users feel safe and comfortable with bitcoin.

That's right ... I think so. Many ICO projects that support ERC20 on the Ethereum platform will not have a big effect on Bitcoin but that will backfire for ETH because ETH only creates new tokens via ICO, when the ICO is not implemented then the ETH does not have the power to develop.

Whereas Altcoin has the focus of each work, it will not disturb Bitcoin.

[Leyss]

In a large number of altcoins, I only see a positive moment for the image of Bitcoin. A large number of cryptocurrencies will cause an increased interest in cryptocurrency as a whole, and thanks to this, people will know more about Bitcoin as the leader of cryptocurrency.

[lousie9]

many altcoins only focus on one of their products and they don't focus on blockchain and currency exchange system transactions. in the end it will still benefit bitcoin, however, altcoins that have the same concept as bitcoin have the potential to take BTC's volume at one time because they have CEOs and developers who continue to develop systems with far more perfect goals.

[Dejech19]

I don't think it will affect Bitcoin negatively since altcoins will also use Bitcoin as one of the trading pair in crypto exchange this may help increase the demand for Bitcoin.  And altcoins has usually unique service that may not hinder the growth of Bitcoin so for me the effect maybe more on positive rather than the negative side.

Exactly mate. Well, as we all know bitcoin is a dominant crypto currency in which most altcoins relying on its value. I don't think it is a threat since as we know altcoins is very far on it's capability compare to bitcoin but in some point it will depends on the demand of many users but for me bitcoin is so great among other crypto currency here in the cyberworld.

[$anounimus$]

I don't think it's true that the more altcoins that are created will make the conditions of bitcoin prices and bitcoin circulation will become stronger and the altcoin will not be able to break down or threaten bitcoin, bitcoin will still circulate and bitcoin will still have very high demand.

[marlonbatotoy]

I dont think some altcoin affect the existence of bitcoin.. I just think that other coin is just trying to follow the bitcoin existence .. They just want to go with the flow of bitcoin to survive their coin.. Because we know that bitcoin is one o the successful coin

[Emily2H]

I don’t think that something will work out for them, if only for the reason that the cost of bitcoin is much higher than all of them combined ... From which it follows that the cost of the main cryptocurrency is much more stable

[bitfocus]

no, but they are definitely confusing newbies and potential crypto users who are non-tech.

[Elqui]

Of course not. The more altcoins will be there, the more life it gives to bitcoins because altcoins always uses bitcoins when buying and selling.

[East2011]

I don't think so. Even there are so many altcoins in the market. Not all of them are good. Bitcoin is still the most dominant crypto in the market. And no altcoins has really post a threat to bitcoin. Atleast for now.

[jyotianand01]

No altcoin can harm bitcoin and its existence as bitcoin is oldest and first coin of the market and it established its supremacy in this market. There are lot of altcoins but bitcoin dominance is still there an it has more than 50% of total market value of the market.

[Monetran]

BTC - and its rabid followers - needn't worry about the number of altcoins there are in existence. What they have to worry about is a very small number of tokens that can do what BTC cannot, which is enable fast, cheap, transactions with a token that has price stability.

This is the only thing that can be universally accepted as a medium of exchange, and BTC will never be able to fulfill those requirements. 

[YinShuiSiYuan]

Altcoins are a threat to bitcoin and a joy to us. A new altcoin can be more modern and faster. Bitcoin was a pioneer but his time is already passing. It's too outdated.

It does not seem that the altcoins could threaten Bitcoin in any particular way. Bitcoin is a value in itself and it creates market events and has more than 50% market share. Altcoins usually follow the direction in which bitcoin is headed.

[Ronziessin]

No altcoin can be a threat to Bitcoin bcause Bitcoin is one of it's kind and most populair of them all.

[Monetran]

Altcoins are a threat to bitcoin and a joy to us. A new altcoin can be more modern and faster. Bitcoin was a pioneer but his time is already passing. It's too outdated.

I say this all the time but, for some reason, BTC cultists won't believe it.

What I'd like to see is one of them offer proof that this isn't the case.

[Monetran]

Exactly mate. Well, as we all know bitcoin is a dominant crypto currency in which most altcoins relying on its value. I don't think it is a threat since as we know altcoins is very far on it's capability compare to bitcoin but in some point it will depends on the demand of many users but for me bitcoin is so great among other crypto currency here in the cyberworld.

This is another fairy tale that constantly makes the rounds.

Our token, for example, has been built on an entirely different blockchain for an entirely different purpose.

If BTC went to zero tomorrow it would have absolutely no affect on us.

We depend on BTC's value?

Get a grip.

[NEERAJ ANAND]

In my opinion, this coin cannot be challenged by any altcoin in near future because its leadership is unchallenged. As no any coin showing the ability to cross the bitcoin value.

[gulshan1]

There is no any chance to threat the all altcoin to the bitcoin in whole life of it. Bitcoin is the first crypto currency in the world and no any coin can beat to the bitcoin because it has become the first need of every investor in the whole world.

[suryanirwana16]

There is no any chance to threat the all altcoin to the bitcoin in whole life of it. Bitcoin is the first crypto currency in the world and no any coin can beat to the bitcoin because it has become the first need of every investor in the whole world.

The competition still exists, this can be seen in the ever-changing list of crypto currencies, it's just that bitcoin still has the highest volume as the most expensive coin at the moment.

There were altcoins that were more expensive before, but they were eventually displaced by sentiment with a low purchase volume, eventually falling by shifting the concentration of the holder.

I think the legality factor will have an impact on increasing volume, and if one of the altcoins is the first to be legalized by many countries, bitcoin will experience a decrease in volume.

[hanlap]

I think many Altcoins were created to increase the value of Bitcoin because there are many Altcoins based on Bitcoin to develop. When Altcoins are growing more and more, i think that it can not threaten the existence of Bitcoin.

[Itcher]

I am too utopian to argue that there can be one single cryptocurrency in the world. Each country has its own currency, so why in cryptocurrencies can not be so?

[darkr]

There is more and more kind of altcoin in the market , it can decrease the marketshare of bitcoin, but I ave strong belief that bitcoin play an important role and have huge impact on coin digital

Despite this huge number of tokens on the market (over 2 thousand now), Bitcoin remains the best cryptocurrency. Its dominance is more than 50-54% all the time.

[[ProTrader]]

    More and more ICO projects are coming based on many major currencies and specially in this year the trend increased rapidly with many reputed organizations that are in various industries and trades decided to start there own digital currency to make there business more effective and efficient in order to gain more profit.
    Can these new launching Altcoin's make a negative impact on bitcoin's expansion in the future because we all know in order to increase the demand, usability and accessibility of bitcoin it should be widely use in most business areas but if Altcoin's take these opportunities how it can achieve its vision to become a widely used digital currency

Altcoin will never be a threat in Bitcoin progress because it is the founder of all cryptocurrency. No matter how enhance the technology of new altcoins they will still bow down once Bitcoin started to rise.

[Sinone]

A big No! At this present situation, More than 2000 Altcoins have in the crypto market. But still bitcoin dominance the crypto market about 52 %. So, There is no chance for Altcoin to overcome bitcoin's value and fame. A lot of people still means bitcoin is the cryptocurrency. So, No other coin can take place of Bitcoin.

[raidarksword]

I think not because altcoins are always be dependent on bitcoin no matter what the circumstances. Alternative coins servers great purpose as well, they provide great projects that benefited crypto currency other than bitcoin. With large numbers of altcoins in the market that truly legit projects, it is truly great as a healthy competition who truly doing well climbing up the coin market cap ranks and apparently bitcoin will always be the number one.

[94K]

Too much altcoins I think in the system will never and can never be a threat to btc. There are so many coins which came after BTC and now we cant see them. EIther its not working or people have lost interest in it. BTC still reigns and people are using it for payment of goods and services.

[DisWhale]

Bitcoin alone cannot fulfil the goal of the Blockchain technology. There is more to the Blockchain than what we know today. As the years go by, new coins will be created in an attempt to bring new solution to a problem in our society. Each altcoin has its goals, product and idea it sells.

[mixail.BTC]

Altcoins, if they can affect BTC, only as an amplifier. Since all alternative currencies are directly dependent on BTC and an increase in the number of altcoins will only increase the value of bitcoin in the financial market.

[bitcoinVPSD]

I do not think the development and existence of altcoin will affect the survival of bitcoin. The truth is that bitcoin is the king of crypto, and altcoin is always dependent and affected by it. Altcoin will survive and develop based on bitcoin and when altcoin no longer attracts investors, it will be excluded from the electronic money market. So altcoin is not a threat to bitcoin.

[WebTera]

I do not think that any of the altcoins can suppress bitcoin. It has a unique technology that has no analogues, and the trust in it is now the highest. And if the cryptocurrency will be accepted by the world, then only in the form of bitcoin.

[Manashelltesu]

there are alot ICO but i think all of it can't exist. i see alot of ICO is SCAM

[bitcoins94]

None of this will or can affect AML BitCoin. AML BitCoin rests on a privately regulated public blockchain that facilitates AML-KYC compliance and identifies criminals associated with illicit transactions while maintaining and strengthening the privacy protections for legitimate users.

[Ace Amias]

No altcoin can't be dangerous to bitcoin because the strategy of business and market of bitcoin is more than the altcoin combine bitcoin is the cryptocurrency that is accepted worldly its takes away many hurdles from its way and went onto the peak so altcoin is started from bitcoin and it cannot stop bitcoin.

[aad140386]

I doubt that altcoins can somehow damage bitcoin. But I do not think that Bitcoin will remain the only cryptocurrency as many claim. Perhaps in the future, the Altcoins will synergistically interact with Bitcoin. I think that in the near future there will be one crypto-purse with internal conversion of one cryptocurrency into another. And it will be very convenient for users. Now the problem is not that there is a large number of new altcoins, but that most of them are absolutely useless.

The threat to the existence of Bitcoins will probably not be a lot of cryptocurrencies, but some one, but very advanced.

[felicita]

Currently about 90 % of the altcoins are totaly not dezentralized !
So form about 2000 alt coins only 200 are maybee interesting but for now Bitcvoin is running great with the updates so i dont need altcoins for now.

actually there is also a positive effect in my opinion that we as investors have more choices to invest our money, but it will also have an impact on the price of the bc I think because more people will put their money in various places, and judging by the price fluctuations of btc when this tends to be stable at the rate of $ 6000 to $ 7000 so we can know that the number of ico does have an impact on the price of BTC, but it is only my personal opinion maybe the analysts know better whether it impacts or not.

In General, in theory, all these factors should play a positive role for Bitcoin.Most alternative coins are somehow tied to it,which means that with the increase in the number of their names,the popularity and price of bitcoin should grow.

When it comes to technology and transaction speed a lot of altcoins can beat Btc in future, however it's hard to beat in terms of popularity. The disadvantages of alts  is that a lot alts sprung up everyday as a result its hard to maintain  their ranking and people will forget about them, because of the thinking new alts, new gain.

I think altcoin could be a threat to bitcoin. Bitcoin has the status of a pioneer, everyone loves it and knows it, it is the most popular coin. However, it has some problems in use and they can slow its development. If they are not solved, then there will be some kind of altcoin, which can compete with him.

Bitcoin has already achieved great popularity and it will be difficult for any altcoin to surpass it. This can happen if bitcoin does not solve the problems that have and investors dont be interest in this.

[DisWhale]

Every altcoin has its goal and ideology behind it. Bitcoin alone cannot fulfill the vast usability of the Blockchain technology. The numerous altcoins and Bitcoin complement the goals of each other and all head towards the central goal of the crypto.

all these altcoins in the end still converted to bitcoin, so there is no threat

There are so many coins five years ago and until now but still Bitcoin loard it over all these coins, I don't think those altcoins are a thread although few altcoins are doing great contributing to the community, but investors prefer to be in a safe side and invest to a true decentralized coin.

[syntac]

yes, when we have achieved a successful dream of bitcoin, we should use that money wiser and can help the distress of those around us. so that our attitude will always be remembered by the people we have helped.

Also, with a lot of altcoin in the market, Bitcoin is the most traded crypto currency still. Thousands of altcoins are being circulated in the market and Bitcoin is still in the top being followed by the altcoins. It may be of use to Bitcoin since Bitcoin can adapt to some crypto currencies since I've read something in the past that some of the feature of other currencies are being used to Bitcoin.

Bitcoin exists for many years now and not even any altcoin become a threat to bitcoin existence. Some altcoins at first were good but eventually some of it has become zero value. So, until these days bitcoin is on top of all crypto and no other coins serves a threat.

I don’t think Alternative coins can become a threat to bitcoin. Bitcoin had been on the top of the Market for so long and the market value could prove it that it is indeed the strongest crypto and no one could still pass through its value it is too far away compare to other coins and I think it would be harder to altcoins to reach that.
