Bitcoin is the King ! Why ?

[harshmonty3]

Bitcoin is known as the king(father) of crypto currencies , but why is that so ?I have been for several months now reading a lot about the whole crypto ecosystem, i even bought several bitcoins.
Enough background, now on to the topic at hand.

1. Low Fees - Nowadays the average fee for BTC is under $0.5 that was a very good sign for adoption of Bitcoin on large scale. In late 2017 Bitcoin fee was very high around $15 and that time the model of Satoshi Nakamoto  is seems to be failed to transfer across the world with almost no fee but the fee is very small and one can easily make a transfer of $5 anywhere in the world.

2 Store of value - It's still a lot. Physical gold has survived wars and governments. Now we have it's virtual version(Bitcoin) that can't be falsified and is easy to carry and trade. Isn't it great?
Bitcoin is functioning as a payment system in Korea and Japan. I could even order food with it or pay the dentist nearby. It's fun to be using something nobody else does, it's a great talk at parties and a great speculative asset, just ask all those traders who made it their full-time job.

3. Lightning Network - LN is making Bitcoin more valuable. Small stores and companies accepting bitcoin using LN that was perfect for small transactions.


Mostly the name, the established brand, as well as the community. Currently people are using it as a safe haven during unstable times. Read what's happening in Venezuela and Zimbabwe. A similar thing was happening in China before the ban. People are using it to do everything the governments are trying to stop them from. Moving money out of the country, hiding income, buying banned goods and services, gambling. It's a rebel coin and the rebel in me is supporting it in full.

In addition, Bitcoin is more accessible, with more exchanges, more merchants, more software and more hardware that support it. Bitcoin is far more liquid, with much larger volumes than every crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the largest developer ecosystem with more software and more implementations than any crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the most entrepreneurs creating companies around it with a lot of intellect, dedication and creativity going toward making it more useful.
When you compete with Bitcoin, not only are you competing with its much larger user base, development team and mining operation, but you’re also competing against the very large ecosystem of startups, open source projects and entrepreneurs.

because of the high amount of crypto that is the most expensive and expensive only in bitcoin, surely bitcoin is said to be king from the past until now because so far there is no coin that can match its value

[Kocret02]

bitcoin is the king because of a high price and also how the popularity of bitcoin is popular with many people, so I think it's a natural thing for bitcoin if bitcoin becomes king.

[niotib]

With Bitcoin anonymity, $400 to $6000, Warren Buffet saying "bitcoin will end up badly" etc.., people fear cryptocurrencies  

Warren Buffett quote: We simply attempt to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful.

[Marcel555]

Bitcoin is the top digital currency as it was Tue first digital currency to actually succeed. Quite a few programmers have tried to develop a digital asset AMD none suceeded before Satoshi created a model which could be totally decentralized, and doesn't depend on any human factor, highly secure and impervious to attacks (except from a group of networks pooling together, it's highly unlikely, as Tue system is designed to out pace any attacker), it's also transparent and neutral.

A number of currencies has been designed on bitcoins model, some even improving on the blockchain technology, but none has been able to match BTC in terms of adoption and relevance and also value.

[131tc01n]

because of the high amount of crypto that is the most expensive and expensive only in bitcoin, surely bitcoin is said to be king from the past until now because so far there is no coin that can match its value

and what is clear is that bitcoin is the mother of crypto currency, the development of blockchain technology will not be so far without bitcoin, bitcoin has gone through a long process where it was originally called junk and now he is king, even the most expensive currency

[Infinixhot1996]

Do we really need to go over this again,its obvious there's a myriad of reasons why bitcoin is boss in here,most importantly of all is that it is the first ever crypto,the more reason why others are alternatives(altcoins)to it
 It has a higher price/value than all other cryptos,safer transactions,suitable for both long and short term investments,anonymity,far more popular & widely accepted and endorsed that any other cryptocurrency in this system
    Bitcoin is definitely king,and it's gonna remain so for as long as this network exists.

[ErikLarsen1976]

Bitcoin is the King of crypto because of its popularity, everybody wants to invest and it has high value, higher than other crypto

[yesyoupump]

Totally agree with you but remember that Bitcoin is the more stable because is seen like a classic financial asset.

[carrieM]

i think bitcoin is the king so far but nothing is forevermore in this World

[1van__]

From August 2009 until today, 15,000 changes were made to the bitcoin protocol. Until now, about 500 employees work on the Bitcoin blockchain, every day they somehow improve it. Reduce its valency and increase its security in transactions. One of the currently existing cryptocurrencies does not have such a rich history. Bitcoin, bypassing all the failures, remains the leader of cryptology to this day, with him start cooperating and accepting as a means of payment such large companies as BMW, Microsoft, Subway, PayPal and many others. He made a huge contribution to the blockchain industry and made a huge furore on the public. He is the best of its kind. He is the leader of the wound. He is the king of the krypto-currency.  

[MadCryptoLover]

bitcoin is the king because of a high price and also how the popularity of bitcoin is popular with many people, so I think it's a natural thing for bitcoin if bitcoin becomes king.

Bitcoin has high price and it is famous because it was the first crypto currency which was created and introduced to the world. For many, Crypto-currency and Bitcoin are interchangeable terms.

It is far more liquid and called as King of crypto because it can be bought and sold at almost 100% of exchanges which are in operation at the time and we need to buy bitcoin first and then convert it to other coins because fiat to altcoin trading pairs are really very few and more than 80% of tokens/altcoins are bought with btc pair only (along with some with eth too).

[aryaadikariyansyahsuwarto]

in my opinion there are some that cause bitcoin to become king, first bitcoin has the highest price from other altcoins, the second bitcoin is the parent of all coins, which if bitcoin goes down then the other altcoins also go down, and the third bitcoin is the most popular among altcoins others make it the most attractive by investors.

[Alexbenua97]

Hhmm. Well firstly bitcoin is the very first crypto currency with which it all began. Secondly, it is the most stable and least susceptible to the fall of the crypto currency. Thirdly, bitcoin can pay, pay for housing, etc. but not yet everywhere, but I think its range will soon expand.

[Iceblast]

low cost is the best factor if bitcoin is king, many people choose bitcoin because of that. but the fact now is not that, people choose bitcoin because it is affected by high prices and bitcoin has a higher price than other coins. so that was what caused bitcoin to become king and it has been proven right now.

[Newer]

Bitcoin is the king, because bitcoin has a very high selling value compared to other cryptocurrency in the world. Many people say that bitcoin is called the king of crptocurrency, because bitcoin is ranked 1st as the best cryptocurrency in the world.

[NavI_027]

Bitcoin is known as the king(father) of crypto currencies , but why is that so?

Let's cut the long story short.

When it comes to technical aspects, we might say that other alts outrank btc because some of them have capabilities of transacting more payments, much lower fees, higher market caps and other outstanding features depending to the platform they have. And yet, btc remains the king, why? Simply because it is the pioneer, the most adopted, the zenith. Even how hard the other alts try to improve their platform, they still remain on btc's shadow as long as they don't have the power enough to change people's perspective.

For me, because of bitcoin you can have your dream or you can achieve it with the help of it, bitcoin is nit only for money, it is also giving learning on how we will manage the money that we earned, how will the users use it ans waste it, bitcoin has a loat of qualities that the users may have. Bitcoin is the king becauseit is the most trend digital currency that we have and we will have because it has no ending.

[mensahkkofie]

Bitcoin is the leading digital currency in the world and no one can dispute this fact. Bitcoin  is the future currency of the world and anyone who kicks against this amazing world of crypto would surely regret. The world of crypto would soon rule the world and its financial activities.

Yes, that's right, for now, Altcoin networks like Ethereum and other altcoin networks may be faster in making transactions. but still Bitcoin is the father of all Altcoins currently in circulation. Bitcoin will remain the king of the Kingdom of Cryptocurrency, no one has the right to replace it.

first of all market cap is not even a "technical aspect" it is a fake and meaningless number that is used by mistake to compare cryptocurrencies.
secondly bitcoin is not on top because of either one the things you said. bitcoin is on top because of the features it has and the utilities it is providing otherwise it would have gotten dumped down back to $10 just as useless altcoins do after each pump. the reason why it is keeping its price up is all those utilities and real adoption it has.
and finally the "capabilities" and "outstanding features" that you are talking about in altcoins have so far been added at a huge cost. for example the faster blocks comes at the cost of a gigantic blockchain size and centralization of the nodes. in other words what you see from outside as "better" feature has actually made the coin 100 times worse. and that is why they  can't rise up properly.

[Ronaldcoin2017]

I think bitcoin is considered as a king of all coin in crypto because it is the most amazing coin and it is the first coin in crypto that gain a lot of trust from its economy. And I believe that if we speak about crypto bitcoin is really the first thing that comes into every mind of its believer. So then I think crypto market really depends on the bitcoin.

bitcoin's influence is clearly seen on other coins. when btc goes down, the other coins also go down. and vice versa if the btc rises, the other coins also follow the rise. therefore btc is leader for cryptocurrency

[Kakmakr]

It is still the King, because a whole network of merchants and users are supporting and using it on a daily basis.  This is why it is different to many of these Alt coins/Shitcoins, because they merely exist for their speculative value and they are not used for their actual purpose.

Also, a lot of money has been invested into the supporting network, so these people are motivated to make this work, because they want to see a return on their investment. <Example : Exchanges / Mixer services / Gambling sites.> 

[EdenHazard]

Altcoin is a new cryptocurrency that strives to perfect what bitcoin doesn't have, so many altcoins are specifically designed to make everyone interested so they move from bitcoin to altcoin. Surely, this is not an easy thing to make bitcoin investors move to become altcoin investors. For instance, altcoin developers make a fast transaction system, because bitcoin has a relatively slow transaction system, only a few transactions can be processed within one minute. Look like, Bitcoin investors were comfortable with the investment he chooses, and may get a lot of profit since he invested in bitcoin, maybe this is one reason bitcoin is still king in cryptocurrency in terms of price.

[kiemponxs]

because crypto coin bitcoins have very high value, and bitcoin is the first crypto coin that was already popular, the existence of the altcoin is only to cover the limited supply of bitcoin, so until now there will be no coins that can rival the price of bitcoin, so it's not wrong if bitcoin is king of crypto.

[Ava Duvall]

Bitcoin is the King of crypto because of its popularity, everybody wants to invest and it has high value, higher than other crypto

That is true, it's also one of the first  decentralized cryptocurrency, so that also makes it stand out.

[Artofmovement]

As much as I love the bitcoin vegeta memes at 9k, I think I'm going to be sick of them when we reach that point again.

[Sojuculture]

As much as I love the bitcoin vegeta memes at 9k, I think I'm going to be sick of them when we reach that point again.

Especially because it's always followed by 6k memes

[Eraldo Coil]

Bitcoin is the king because it is the first one and the only one who introduced cryptocurrency to us.  Bitcoin is the king because lots of users believes on it.  Bitcoin because the system are great and the management are doing their best to improve it for us to use it easily. Bitcoin really helped us a lot and it really deserve to be called king.

[NortenBank]

I totally agree. Bitcoin marked the beginning of a new economy, the era of the digital economy.

[Cryptomania843]

Bitcoin is currently the king of cryptocurrency. But I do not think he'll always stay in first place. New cryptos are created in there is a great chance that one day one of them will destroy Bitcoin. The competition is tough and the future will tell.

[Pursuer]

I still don't understand why people love to use terms like this about bitcoin! bitcoin is simply on top because it is good and the others are not capable of competing with it because they are bad! in other words bitcoin is a currency and is used in many places as a currency while it is also a store of value and also an investment while altcoins are only an investment and as speculators people dump them eventually when they gained enough profit from their investments and know that there is no more usage for them.

[andthereyou]

Bitcoin is always number one in terms of coinmarket, even when bitcoin has high transaction fees(last year) or even before lightning network creation. In my personal opinion, it's because of its popularity that bitcoin become a blueprint (that need to be 'followed and invested') in the mind of most people.

[KenChanYu]

   Absolutely, bitcoin held its popularity and take the great standing as a king of all assets in the world of crypto. The essentials of its existence was very impressionable to all users that may lift up its strategy. Maybe because of its high value bitcoin will ever stand its position even if its price has decline rapidly, still bitcoin contour its position. So far, bitcoin does not undergo the tropical situation. So, I believe bitcoin will always excel as a king.

[novakamena]

because crypto coin bitcoins have very high value, and bitcoin is the first crypto coin that was already popular, the existence of the altcoin is only to cover the limited supply of bitcoin, so until now there will be no coins that can rival the price of bitcoin, so it's not wrong if bitcoin is king of crypto.

Bitcoin was developed as the worldwide payment system, so it can be used anywhere. It has tried to stand as the currency of the world,and Bitcoin is not regulated by any government so while performing transactions,people do not need to have middleman like a bank for performing transactions.

[RokokGudangGaram]

because all this time there are no coins that match the price, so at any time while bitcoin doesn't match its value, bitcoin will become king in the crypto world

[ShadowBits]

Bitcoin is known as the king(father) of crypto currencies , but why is that so ?I have been for several months now reading a lot about the whole crypto ecosystem, i even bought several bitcoins.
Enough background, now on to the topic at hand.

1. Low Fees - Nowadays the average fee for BTC is under $0.5 that was a very good sign for adoption of Bitcoin on large scale. In late 2017 Bitcoin fee was very high around $15 and that time the model of Satoshi Nakamoto  is seems to be failed to transfer across the world with almost no fee but the fee is very small and one can easily make a transfer of $5 anywhere in the world.

2 Store of value - It's still a lot. Physical gold has survived wars and governments. Now we have it's virtual version(Bitcoin) that can't be falsified and is easy to carry and trade. Isn't it great?
Bitcoin is functioning as a payment system in Korea and Japan. I could even order food with it or pay the dentist nearby. It's fun to be using something nobody else does, it's a great talk at parties and a great speculative asset, just ask all those traders who made it their full-time job.

3. Lightning Network - LN is making Bitcoin more valuable. Small stores and companies accepting bitcoin using LN that was perfect for small transactions.


Mostly the name, the established brand, as well as the community. Currently people are using it as a safe haven during unstable times. Read what's happening in Venezuela and Zimbabwe. A similar thing was happening in China before the ban. People are using it to do everything the governments are trying to stop them from. Moving money out of the country, hiding income, buying banned goods and services, gambling. It's a rebel coin and the rebel in me is supporting it in full.

In addition, Bitcoin is more accessible, with more exchanges, more merchants, more software and more hardware that support it. Bitcoin is far more liquid, with much larger volumes than every crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the largest developer ecosystem with more software and more implementations than any crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the most entrepreneurs creating companies around it with a lot of intellect, dedication and creativity going toward making it more useful.
When you compete with Bitcoin, not only are you competing with its much larger user base, development team and mining operation, but you’re also competing against the very large ecosystem of startups, open source projects and entrepreneurs.

Bitcoin can be popular by now since people only knew only about Bitcoin and do not have any insight with other crypto. But I believe that there will be another crypto that would surpass Bitcoin for payments.

bitcoin is the king because many people is used in bitcoin and because of its high price

[ongkok87]

because so far no one can match the price of bitcoin, so if no one can match the price of bitcoin then bitcoin will also become king

[MTNAX]

I think it might be because there is nothing that can match bitcoin prices for now and more and more people are using and starting to believe in investing in bitcoin, so that is the reason why bitcoin is considered to be king for now. Currently bitcoin is increasingly popular and no doubt for its benefits. For those who are smart at processing bitcoin, they will be successful and have multiple benefits.

[burky155]

I believe inn that too. The bitcoin is the first and the most powerfull coin ever. You can call it the father of all coins! The bitcoin is the first coin and the otheer ones followed it and here we are. With the last cryptocurrency market crush the BTC stayed strong and showed us its strenght. The price never went down $6.000.. If you look back in last 8 months all the altcoins lost like %50-80.. We have to give more trust to the BTC..

[jennygamilo]

Its , because bitcoin is very famous and easy to handle , affordable, secure and comfortable.

One thing that cause bitcoin is not owned by every people in the world is the safetyness.
People still afraid turn their money into crypto because it's too dangerous.
And right now cryptocurrency is just like an investment , not a main currency

[maulana rifai]

because so far no one can match the price of bitcoin, so if no one can match the price of bitcoin then bitcoin will also become king

yes, this is what makes bitcoin increasingly popular and becomes the best coin. people really trust bitcoin because the value of bitcoin is high and stable. the better the value of bitcoin, the more people believe in bitcoin.

[Exidous]

Yes. I totally agree with your opinion. The features which you pointed out are very exactly. That is the answer for the people who are always doubt the quality of Bitcoin

[rathaha10]

because so far no one can match the price of bitcoin, so if no one can match the price of bitcoin then bitcoin will also become king

yes, this is what makes bitcoin increasingly popular and becomes the best coin. people really trust bitcoin because the value of bitcoin is high and stable. the better the value of bitcoin, the more people believe in bitcoin.

And don't forget that Bitcoin was also the first crypto currency coin. Later on new coins were announced. I also think that this is also one of the reasons why Bitcoin is so popular.

[Ngajim]

Yes BITCOIN is a KING.  Because bitcoin have a good future and high price than another altcoin.
Bitcoin is very popular and so many people believed Ind bitcoin.

[dark1234]

because so far no one can match the price of bitcoin, so if no one can match the price of bitcoin then bitcoin will also become king

yes, this is what makes bitcoin increasingly popular and becomes the best coin. people really trust bitcoin because the value of bitcoin is high and stable. the better the value of bitcoin, the more people believe in bitcoin.

And don't forget that Bitcoin was also the first crypto currency coin. Later on new coins were announced. I also think that this is also one of the reasons why Bitcoin is so popular.

and remember the reduced supply of bitcoin and the need for bitcoin will definitely increase and allow future prices to increase and this is one of the reasons bitcoin is a long-term investment proimadona like other assets and fluactive prices without government interference

[Usafstar]

Bitcoin is the one which is using for multiple transactions like it is also a currency or we can say that it is intangible asset because we can see it physically but it's value is high and for now the bitcoin is more useful for holding because we can sell at right time so the profit can also be earned through this way and we can hire services like advertisement and other graphics through bitcoin you can pay and make your order online.

[indopool]

I think bitcoin is considered the king of all coins in crypto because bitcoins have very high value, and bitcoin is the first crypto coin that is already popular, its limited supply makes Bitcoin rare and has high value, so it's not wrong if bitcoin is king of crypto, because until now there are no coins that can rival the price of bitcoin.

[stiffbud]

bitcoin is the king because of a high price and also how the popularity of bitcoin is popular with many people, so I think it's a natural thing for bitcoin if bitcoin becomes king.

Bitcoin is king among all other cryptocurrency because of its market price. In this time one bitcoin is equal to approximately 6400 dollars and no other cryptocurrency has such market price. And Because of this market price many investors use it for investment purposes and bitcoin is the first virtual currency which accept by multiple government and by many multimillion companies which also help to boost up bitcoin popularity. In comparison others cryptocurrency its user number are high and its is also use for various others purpose and these things make it king among all other cryptocurrency.

[JayCue]

I think Bitcoin is the King given the fact that it is the first cryptocurrency that was created and the very first to prove the future of digital currencies.
It was first used to purchase a pizza and now being used almost in all kinds of businesses or industries. And I guess it is the King because it was the
very first thing that comes up to mind when we heard the word crypto or cryptocurrency.

[bitezoid]

useful article. keep up posting articles like that 

[rishad quraishi]

All I can say that, as far as I know and I have seen in every sector. The pioneer of anything in any sector grabs that place for all time what ever happens if that process and new thought is accepted by the people. So in this case it took a long time to be noticed and get well known to the people world wide but once it did we saw the acceptance of it. All because of it's unique thought and unique system which made people crazy for it easily. So shortly because of it's incomparable pioneer idea and unique thoughtful innovation that changed the thinking of currency on planet earth made Bitcoin the king of Crypto. And to relate the pioneer thing, we all know that once a king always a king...

[worldofcoins]

because so far no one can match the price of bitcoin, so if no one can match the price of bitcoin then bitcoin will also become king

I agree with you on this. There is no coin so far that has surpassed the price of Bitcoin ever. Bitcoin is still in the lead and no coin as far as I can see is to take that away from BTC.

[kickdapa]

Bitcoin wasn't a king! Bitcoin was alone and there was no altcoin. After creating many altcoins, Bitcoin is still ahead of every altcoin's price, popularity and Bitcoin dominance more than 50% Of the crypto market and others 2000 Altcoin dominance less than 50%! Lots of people know the crypto platform only because of the Bitcoin! If Bitcoin price grows the whole crypto market volume grows! If bitcoin price falls down then every altcoins price follows the downtrend. For all these things prove that Bitcoin is the king! The King of the cryptocurrency.

[evichi]

The reason for bitcoin being the king of cryptocurrency is not far fetched: The first cryoptocurrency with a wonderful technology-Blockchain. Apart from that, it existed some years before other cryptocurrencies came into limelight. Basically, most fiat to crypto currency exchanges deal with bitcoin, most cryptocurrency exchanges trade with bitcoin as base currency. Some countries even have bitcoin ATM. Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency nd also the first to be adopted universally as well as have attained highest market capitalization. In all aspects, bitcoin is the king of crypto.  

[kleeck]

Because it is the first cryptocurrency.

It is not the best blockchain or any other advantages to the other cryptos. But, it has brand effect. Most people only know bitcoin and not even heard most of the others. It will always be the king because of this effect.

[royalfestus]

With Bitcoin anonymity, $400 to $6000, Warren Buffet saying "bitcoin will end up badly" etc.., people fear cryptocurrencies  

Warren buffet has a lot of regrets not investing in technology. I dont get worried with his comments; he believe its a quick scam project and  most times when he gets into the news with his views the market responds positively.

[tegarp90]

Bitcoin is known as the king(father) of crypto currencies , but why is that so ?I have been for several months now reading a lot about the whole crypto ecosystem, i even bought several bitcoins.
Enough background, now on to the topic at hand.

1. Low Fees - Nowadays the average fee for BTC is under $0.5 that was a very good sign for adoption of Bitcoin on large scale. In late 2017 Bitcoin fee was very high around $15 and that time the model of Satoshi Nakamoto  is seems to be failed to transfer across the world with almost no fee but the fee is very small and one can easily make a transfer of $5 anywhere in the world.

2 Store of value - It's still a lot. Physical gold has survived wars and governments. Now we have it's virtual version(Bitcoin) that can't be falsified and is easy to carry and trade. Isn't it great?
Bitcoin is functioning as a payment system in Korea and Japan. I could even order food with it or pay the dentist nearby. It's fun to be using something nobody else does, it's a great talk at parties and a great speculative asset, just ask all those traders who made it their full-time job.

3. Lightning Network - LN is making Bitcoin more valuable. Small stores and companies accepting bitcoin using LN that was perfect for small transactions.


Mostly the name, the established brand, as well as the community. Currently people are using it as a safe haven during unstable times. Read what's happening in Venezuela and Zimbabwe. A similar thing was happening in China before the ban. People are using it to do everything the governments are trying to stop them from. Moving money out of the country, hiding income, buying banned goods and services, gambling. It's a rebel coin and the rebel in me is supporting it in full.

In addition, Bitcoin is more accessible, with more exchanges, more merchants, more software and more hardware that support it. Bitcoin is far more liquid, with much larger volumes than every crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the largest developer ecosystem with more software and more implementations than any crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the most entrepreneurs creating companies around it with a lot of intellect, dedication and creativity going toward making it more useful.
When you compete with Bitcoin, not only are you competing with its much larger user base, development team and mining operation, but you’re also competing against the very large ecosystem of startups, open source projects and entrepreneurs.

And one thing is bitcoin is the pioneer of the blockchain technology itself.
No other alts can replace bitcoin and bitcoin will be a global currency in the future

[AztecGoldHero]

most liquid coın in crypto, also first coin in crypto, also main coin in crypto, most known thing in crypto world, most hyped coin in crypto world, and there is millions of dollars invested for  bitcoin mining equipments, thats the real value behind the bitcoin

[candra raditya]

The advantage of bitcoin that makes people believe in bitcoin, bitcoin is considered the safest and can survive in the long run and people are not worried about choosing bitcoin, and that makes bitcoin the king of crypto.

[hahay]

No wonder if bitcoin is king in the crypto world, we all know that there are many altcoins at the moment because bitcoin has started long before them and bitcoin also starts from the lowest value until it reaches the top, besides bitcoin is the first coin in crypto, so all price movements the crypto market always follows the bitcoin price movement at that time. So it's worth saying that bitcoin is the king in the crypto world.

[Oniko]

Bitcoin is only a pioneer. This is how it all began.

In the future, cryptocurrencies will gain a new look. They will lose their anonymity and become transboundary.

[felicita]

Bitcoin was the first one and the upgrades  like Lightning Network what they get ware totaly great.
And still the most Altcoins are not really Dezentral so for me still the best choice is the Bitcoin.

[Anish02]

Because it is the first cryptocurrency.

It is not the best blockchain or any other advantages to the other cryptos. But, it has brand effect. Most people only know bitcoin and not even heard most of the others. It will always be the king because of this effect.

Yes, I completely agree with your opinion on this topic. Most of the people don't know about other cryptocurrencies, those only know about bitcoin. And also bitcoin is the first digital cryptocurrency, which makes it the king of cryptocurrency.

[ShowOff]

Because it is the first cryptocurrency.

It is not the best blockchain or any other advantages to the other cryptos. But, it has brand effect. Most people only know bitcoin and not even heard most of the others. It will always be the king because of this effect.

I agree about brand effect thing, because it work too on Dogecoin, even don't have any good development, or only use for trading, et. Dogecoin is still remembered until now and not die yet.

[Emilyp]

Bitcoin is king because it was the first cryptocurrency and many people will first hear about Bitcoin before hearing about blockchain and cryptocurrencies. So people are more likely to invest in Bitcoin than in any other altcoin. This is showing in the market cap of bitcoin.

[Reid]

We do have the rebellious side even in our history.

So we could say that is really a rebellion against the government which aint good since the beginning that it was created.
It is too govern and yet it is being abused by the authority.
Might as well go against it when we see this type of leadership.

I am not saying we go to illegal drugs or weapons. There are things that looks like illegal for the government but yet good for us.
One is that sending money overseas with high amounts. Why do they really prevent that if you really have the money? Why question it?

[Jackolantern]

Btc is the best coin because it is the king of the market and it should become the main currency. I think that you need to take part in the crypto market and win because there are a lot of different opportunities provided by btc

You already pointed out many reasons. Bitcoin is accepted in all the sectors where crypto is related as a term just. By the way, Btc is much popular than all other currencies. Its easy to use and also its transaction are good and also fast.

To analyze above all, we can say without any hesitation that Bitcoin is the king.

[Dexion]

bitcoin has a lot of positive values, including some that you mentioned in your topic.

but I think that the reason you mentioned is still general, meaning that other currencies are also able to have values like that.

in my opinion, the aspect that makes bitcoin king are.
1. decentralized
2. limited supply, and will become scarce.
3. has no form.
4. the volatility is very fast.
5. bitcoin credibility is trusted by elite groups.

    Hey harshmonty3,  BTC will only be 21 million Bitcoin already HAS value. It has important characteristics that are not replicable. With institutionalization, on-ramps & adoption happening at a global scale. Scarcity will catch up, it’s a matter of when.

[BitHodler]

3. has no form.

What do you mean with 'has no form'? If you refer to the fact that you don't need to fill in personal information to use Bitcoin, then I can agree with that, but the process of buying is largely still centralized unfortunately.

4. the volatility is very fast.

There are as many pro's as con's to name up when it comes to the volatile nature of Bitcoin, so I'm neutral here. People often forget that stability stimulates currency usage and prevents merchants from directly selling their coins.

5. bitcoin credibility is trusted by elite groups.

Elite groups? That sounds as if Bitcoin is heavily centralized around these groups, which isn't something I would consider to be an advantage of Bitcoin. I heavily disagree here for that reason.

[kvipcn]

Bitcoin introduced blockchain technology which introduced the world to the whole idea of decentralization in the financial ecosystem. With such an eye opener features, most people in the crypto world now quickly bought into this idea proposed by Bitcoin. These are some of the reasons why bitcoin is the king.

[zwiggel]

Right. Bitcoin is king. Because it is the father of the coin. The bitcoin market is growing strongly around the globe. There are many investors choosing bitcoin for long term development. Bitcoin prices are higher than the rest of the coin.

[Cloak1]

Bitcoin is extremely popular, and therefore, it is the first cryptocurrency that people have bought and WILL buy. It is the original cryptocurrencies, the grandfather! The best thing is we can trade FIAT money directly for BTC, and that is not the case for most cryptocurrencies, except for ETH, Ripple, BCH and some others. If we want to buy other coins, then first we have to buy BTC, and it is not changing any time soon.

[kevinzxz]

if my personally reason, why Bitcoin is a king? then I will state some of my opinions, that is :
1. Bitcoin was the first pioneer
2. many people support Bitcoin
3. Bitcoin price increases are very fast compared to other cryptocurrency
4. 52% of the market volume is dominated by Bitcoin
5. Bitcoin is ranked 1 in coinmarketcap

from that reason why I can say Bitcoin is the king.

[MinSiu]

i think bitcoin is the king because of its high price and value. It also really famous all over the world

[Romeotom]

Because of the highest amount of the crypto and expensive popular most number one currency.it the some reason top number one currency in the coinmarketcap,huge people supports,hope 80℅ market crop up bitcoin.

[ocid]

bitcoin is the first coin that appeared on cryptocurrency, from the beginning of its launch bitcoin has experienced a very drastic price change, from its lowest value to being able to increase sharply until now so that since the existence of bitcoin other types of altcoins have emerged but crypto market price movements are always based on bitcoin so bitcoin can be said to be the king of cryptocurrency

[Kasliono]

In my view, the reason why bitcoin become a king because bitcoin is the most popular coin, also bitcoin is the first coin which is adopted blockchain Technology into it. Also, most of the other coin are pairing with bitcoin too, so it means that when the prices of bitcoin down, then the coin which is pairing with bitcoin probably going down too.

[tadung8790]

Every king has strong at times. No one can stand on top without falling

[davidroux]

Every king has strong at times. No one can stand on top without falling

Do you know Apple )) Mobile king for over 10 year as I remember. 10 year is enough for something awesome like bitcoin

[akungagal]

The truth is that: Bitcoin is the only true king of Cryptocurrencies which both friends and enemies of Crypto space have absolute trust on. Regardless of the FUD against it by both the investors and the mainstream, it shows resilience and continue to stay strong. Its continues landslide market dominance is unequal. One thing that has led to a big encouragement and which has caused a big problem for the ethereum network is its reduced transaction fee as occasioned by the lightening network. The brain behind the invention of the bitcoin should be consider the status of "one of the WONDERS of the new world".

you're right, i really agree with your statement.
bitcoin is the parent of all coins in Cryptocurrency, other coin-coin movements always follow the movement of bitcoin. indeed the current price is not good, but there are still many who trust bitcoin for long-term investment. that is why the price is much higher than other coin-coins.

although a lot of negative news circulated, but bitcoin still has enormous trust from investors.

[AAKODI]

Bitcoin is the king of crypto without a doubt because it is the most demanding digital currency in the crypto world when considering both price and popularity and as the first cryptocurrency it has come across a big journey that other currencies haven't so the amount of user's it has gained is immense in the business world and that is why most people prefer bitcoin investments over other altcoins  

[Simsonie]

To what I know, bitcoin is the king of crypto world because it is the leader of cryptocurrency and it it a profitable coin.

[Escan0r]

Because bitcoin is the first crypto currency to the world and has become famous, bitcoin is called the king may be due to that. Also different from other coins and the price is arguably very high now and the circulation every day is very high.

[team87]

Because bitcoin coins are the most expensive and attract the attention of many people in various countries. With a decentralized system, it cannot be controlled by anyone. Bitcoin deserves to be the king of cryptocurrency.

[Jorandck]

From the coin value sector, it is indeed a btc superior but not the king of coins in my opinion. I prefer king coins to coin a project that can't be mine. why, the coin is in a business line that is very useful for human life. BTC is also useful, but project coins are more common for various industrial sectors.

[kesmex]

because bitcoin is the first crypto coin, and the price of bitcoin is also very expensive compared to other crypto coins, and until now there is no crypto coin that can rival the price of bitcoin, so it's not wrong if bitcoin becomes the king of crypto.

[Fedor07]

Why is the king of coins ? It’s simple, bitcoin is the most used cryptocurency of all . Its the most expensive crypto currency of all and its popular crypto of all .  A lot of people are posting a lot of good news about bitcoin and thats why bitcoin is the most popular of all. He deserves to be the king .

[baby1moretime]

In spite of the constant criticism and opposition from the altcoins, Bitcoin still has its unquestionable advantages - which will help its value continue to rise in the air. Throughout history, there will always be an institution that forces people to use the money it releases - from the state, the central bank to the church, but Bitcoin not only encourages Everybody owns it, but it also creates a decentralized currency system where politicians, bank managers, and local officials are no longer involved.

[walemil]

Bitcoin is the first and foremost cryptocurrency so we call it father of all cryptocurrencies and it has so many things going well for it. The community is strong and the market size is huge. The adoption of bitcoin is growing daily. By the time the cryptocurrency market takes a fresh shape, the interest in bitcoin will soar.

[rudox]

I can not agree less with you Bitcoin is actually the king of all coins and will always continue to lead the other altcoins both in market share and price. The issues with bitcoin was scalability and transaction fees. As I have noticed recently the fees are getting down but the scalability remains a huge headache but that notwithstanding i am optimistic that the team will continue to work on it till we have a manageable scalable  for transactions. Though other coins are now having a a faster scalability even faster than Ethereum , but bitcoin will still stand shoulder high above all of them.

[Hudadahuda2018]

bitcoin is the king because of a high price and also how the popularity of bitcoin is popular with many people, so I think it's a natural thing for bitcoin if bitcoin becomes king.

Good opinion and I like your opinion.
Bitcoin will forever be the king of coins because judging from the value and price of bitcoin is at the top so bitcoin is more popular than others even many people believe in bitcoin.

[FlightyPouch]

Because bitcoin coins are the most expensive and attract the attention of many people in various countries. With a decentralized system, it cannot be controlled by anyone. Bitcoin deserves to be the king of cryptocurrency.

As an investor, why would you invest in a popular crypto currency that might not be having a price pump in a short time while there are a lot of great projects out there that can give you a good profit in time as long as you pick the righteous one though it is really hard. There are a lot of people that just wants to earn easily money by tricking people on their fraud projects. Don't be mistaken or be misunderstood to what I just said, Bitcoin is the most expensive an the first crypto currency ever made but not all of the investors will invest on an investment that is already expnsive.

[Westinhome]

First thing that ill know about cryptocurrency is about bitcoin, We all know they are too many coins in the market but their are have some one coins are in the number one in the market it is bitcoin. Actually when we look at the CMC bitcoin are still a number one, Maybe it is always in a top 1 because of the high value and the volume of this coin was high than other coins.

[babarian]

currently the price of bitcoin is the highest price when compared to all altcoins, bitcoin is the pioneer of crypto currency, bitcoin was first created as the forerunner of crypto currency. so that bitcoin is considered the king of crypto currency

[angel55]

Its simple: first mover advantage.  Being the first in a field gives you a tremendous advantage, bitcoin is by far the most known cryptocurrency.  Just look at how high the daily trading volume is compared to other coins.  BTC is the clear king.

[Shenzou]

Obviously one the biggest reason why bitcoin is so successful and is the king of the cryptocurrency is because it was the first, at the beginning people thought that it was an idea that is new and revolutionary so they started supporting it and given its limited supply its price increased over time, and that brought many other people who probably don't care about the core idea of bitcoin they just wanted the money, and that is something that you can't find with other cryptocurrencies, because their price is not high and the number of people supporting a certain crypto will always be negligible compared to bitcoin.

[Hira1995]

Bitcoin is the king of other currency. Because Bitcoin leads the other currency.It has control the world currency market.

[Udrujec]

Bitcoin is absolutely deservedly considered to be the king of the cryptocurrencies. The main reason for this was the fact that bitcoin was created by the very first and therefore the trust in it is the highest.

[mindfly09]

Bitcoin is the king, because its only currency that most great value and it gives high profit and asides from that it will continuously increasing.

[paxaway21]

Because bitcoin is the most valuable coin in the history of cryptocurrency But for me Im waiting to for the price of bitcoin will get in 500$ to buy and hold again if this will happen some coins will overtake bitcoin and not a king anymore.

[Adhar]

Very easy to say bitcoin is a king of cryptocurrency becouse all altcoin depand on bitcoin Price. Bitcoin is a first crypto coin & its  using everywher. So really bitcoin is king,no doubt.   

[MathGame]

The bitcoin is the king 👑 because it is the most popular and the most used cryptocurrency. It has the largest market capitalization in the whole cryptocurrency ecosystem.

[djselery]

Bitcoin is the most powerful cryptocurrency surely, because it is the first successful coin and it have the highest price and the most active community among cryptocurrencies. So, it is normal that Bitcoin keeps its first position for several years despite the appearance of thousands of altcoins for a few years.

[joshv06]

Bitcoin is the first and foremost cryptocurrency so we call it father of all cryptocurrencies and it has so many things going well for it. The community is strong and the market size is huge. The adoption of bitcoin is growing daily. By the time the cryptocurrency market takes a fresh shape, the interest in bitcoin will soar.

That's perfect and one more reason i would really like to add which is the nothing but the power and control which bitcoin has over the other altcoins as the value of most of the altcoins (except few) fluctuates based on the value of bitcoin, If there was no bitcoin then there wouldn't had been any other altcoins as well. That is the reason why bitcoin is the king.

[Glutius]

I do not know of any other existing cryptocurrency that could surpass bitcoin. He was created the most the first, and this indeed gave him serious advantage. But its technology is unique and so far it has no equal among altcoins.

[OTC]

Bitcoin is the key and will always be the king of cryptocurrency because of its popularity and ability to control other altcoins in the market.  Also,  it has power and influence on cryptocurrency industry.

[jaydenbox]

Your post is perfect, this is exactly why bitcoin is the best and still will be. Bitcoin is too far from other cryptocurrencies and will always be that, bitcoin is everywhere.

[bigbosma]

Bitcoin has managed to earn immense popularity and trust among people. They first of all learn about it as the most profitable and promising cryptocurrency. And hardly anyone will be able to overtake bitcoin. That's why everyone thinks he's king.

[liberox]

BTC has been made and annonced by a really charismatic person and was inspired by the idea of freedom and revolution. It will ever has that SPIRIT inside and that`s what make it the BIG ONE.

Nevermind if some coin has better technical characteristics, feeless and/or transactions, whatever. All the rest will ever be trivial, ordinary and nothing more than a cryptocurrency. BTC is THE cryptocurrency, it`s the IDEA and the LEADER. By that reason BTC can not be overtaken whatever fork someone realize or whatever benefits some coin could own!

[t3ChNo]

Well said. Yes BTC is the King. A lot of coins had tried their best to overthrow it at it's seat but failed.

[nikola22]

Well said. Yes BTC is the King. A lot of coins had tried their best to overthrow it at it's seat but failed.

the original is always better than the following products. bitcoin has the trust from investors like noone else on the cryptocurrency market.

[SistaFista]

Bitcoin is known as the king(father) of crypto currencies , but why is that so ?I have been for several months now reading a lot about the whole crypto ecosystem, i even bought several bitcoins.
Enough background, now on to the topic at hand.

1. Low Fees - Nowadays the average fee for BTC is under $0.5 that was a very good sign for adoption of Bitcoin on large scale. In late 2017 Bitcoin fee was very high around $15 and that time the model of Satoshi Nakamoto  is seems to be failed to transfer across the world with almost no fee but the fee is very small and one can easily make a transfer of $5 anywhere in the world.

2 Store of value - It's still a lot. Physical gold has survived wars and governments. Now we have it's virtual version(Bitcoin) that can't be falsified and is easy to carry and trade. Isn't it great?
Bitcoin is functioning as a payment system in Korea and Japan. I could even order food with it or pay the dentist nearby. It's fun to be using something nobody else does, it's a great talk at parties and a great speculative asset, just ask all those traders who made it their full-time job.

3. Lightning Network - LN is making Bitcoin more valuable. Small stores and companies accepting bitcoin using LN that was perfect for small transactions.

Well, the points you describe are not wrong, the fees of bitcoin now is lower indeed, but there are other coins which have lower fees than bitcoin i guess. Bitcoin will always be a king for cryptocurrency because it is the first crypto in the world that many peoples already used it.

[Toukexx99]

No wonder bitcoin is the crypto king, With the increasing number of adoptions, international cryptocurrency regulations continue to grow. On September 4, Iran legitimized cryptocurrency mining resulting in the price of Bitcoin reaching a record high recently.

The Iranian government has accepted cryptocurrency mining as an industry and is now developing a regulatory framework for this sector, according to a report from the Iranian news agency IBENA.
Following the news of this agreement, Bitcoin (BTC) immediately stepped on the gas to the highest price of 1,020,000,000 rial Iran (~ $ 24,000 USD) on one of their local crypto currency exchanges. While BTC is still traded at a price of $ 7,000 in other exchangers outside the country.

[Teebass001]

All hail the king!!  Long may he reign over cryptodom. May his reign be peaceful and prosperous. Bitcoin is the pacesetter and the trailblazer, Bitcoin is here to stay. I just laughed at people who says that Ethereum or any other shitcoins will overtake Bitcoin, It ain't gonna happen mates. Wake up from your dreams.

[reynald70]

Yes, it is true, now most countries in the world have opened their hands to accept bitcoin in their country, for example is the country of Iran that has received bitcoin mining. This is a good step for bitcoin going forward. And in Iran, 1 btc was around $ 24,000. So for the future, I'm sure bitcoin will dominate the Crypto world anytime.

[BigBos]

Well said. Yes BTC is the King. A lot of coins had tried their best to overthrow it at it's seat but failed.

the original is always better than the following products. bitcoin has the trust from investors like noone else on the cryptocurrency market.

well, of course because bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that has high value, and also great trust. besides, bitcoin makes a big effect on other altcoins, as the increase in bitcoin prices also affects other altcoin prices

[doodle07]

For me, bitcoin is the king because it is the root and it is the first, in addition to that its price remains at the top of the list. Many coins have been created, launch and made but bitcoin always shines above them all. Even if we talk about crypto currency, bitcoin has been always what we think first.

What you say there are some issues not right.
Because now have a lot of new coins with more superiority than Bitcoin. I think Bitcoin is king in cryptocurrency simply because Bitcoin is the first product of block chain technology, and is known to be the first cryptocurrency coin.

[Bonnie113]

It can be said that bitcoin is the king of a coin, it is influenced by other Altcoin coins, Bitcoin itself is a huge financial market, and is not under government control, so of course The more attention is given when political changes take place.

[Nikolya]

At the time, the voiced idea and its embodiment led Bitcoin to the position in which it is now. Other projects should take this example.

[canej]

Due to the network effect and decentralization, bitcoin is much more successful than other coins. This of course does not mean that bitcoin will never be replaced by a more innovative coin.

[twoBTCchuck]

Blockchain is king, the rest is just details.

[cizatext]

The name bitcoin is the image of the crypto currency world because since cryptocurrency does not any physical value bitcoin as the mother coin has created a great image in the heart of the people and at that bitcoin has constantly performed that leadership role ever since it inception till this present moment.

[hridoyb]

Bitcoin is known as the king(father) of crypto currencies , but why is that so ?I have been for several months now reading a lot about the whole crypto ecosystem, i even bought several bitcoins.
Enough background, now on to the topic at hand.

1. Low Fees - Nowadays the average fee for BTC is under $0.5 that was a very good sign for adoption of Bitcoin on large scale. In late 2017 Bitcoin fee was very high around $15 and that time the model of Satoshi Nakamoto  is seems to be failed to transfer across the world with almost no fee but the fee is very small and one can easily make a transfer of $5 anywhere in the world.

2 Store of value - It's still a lot. Physical gold has survived wars and governments. Now we have it's virtual version(Bitcoin) that can't be falsified and is easy to carry and trade. Isn't it great?
Bitcoin is functioning as a payment system in Korea and Japan. I could even order food with it or pay the dentist nearby. It's fun to be using something nobody else does, it's a great talk at parties and a great speculative asset, just ask all those traders who made it their full-time job.

3. Lightning Network - LN is making Bitcoin more valuable. Small stores and companies accepting bitcoin using LN that was perfect for small transactions.


Mostly the name, the established brand, as well as the community. Currently people are using it as a safe haven during unstable times. Read what's happening in Venezuela and Zimbabwe. A similar thing was happening in China before the ban. People are using it to do everything the governments are trying to stop them from. Moving money out of the country, hiding income, buying banned goods and services, gambling. It's a rebel coin and the rebel in me is supporting it in full.

In addition, Bitcoin is more accessible, with more exchanges, more merchants, more software and more hardware that support it. Bitcoin is far more liquid, with much larger volumes than every crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the largest developer ecosystem with more software and more implementations than any crypto currencies. Bitcoin has the most entrepreneurs creating companies around it with a lot of intellect, dedication and creativity going toward making it more useful.
When you compete with Bitcoin, not only are you competing with its much larger user base, development team and mining operation, but you’re also competing against the very large ecosystem of startups, open source projects and entrepreneurs.

Yes, bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency. You can see crypto market depends on bitcoin price when bitcoin get good news from other bitcoin and crypto market up and some its was moon. On the other hand when bitcoin get negative from other crypto markets down and bitcoin is the safer and secure than other digital currency and anyone cannot control their price. People can easily transfer their money one to another hide there identify

[happytakhana]

Bitcoin is the first crypto currency and take almost 51% of crypto market share and also all other crypto currencies follow only Bitcoin and it is also the future currency of world and very soon this will adopt as a payment system. So according to me these are the main reasons for Bitcoin become number one, and also to become a king of crypto world.

[iam_aayushiJ]

The size of bitcoin's private key space (2^256) is an unfathomably large no. It is approximately 10^77 in decimal. For comparison, the visible universe is estimated to contain 10^80 atoms.

[cpoer2011]

Bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrencies because it's the first cryptocurrency using the blockchain technology and now a lot of people using it in their purpose, the Bitcoin value is very high and also the most popular crypto in the cryptocurrency world.

[MRY]

in my opinion, bitcoin is king because bitcoin has the highest price among all coins and bitcoin is becoming increasingly popular, many people are joining and investing in bitcoin so the price of bitcoin will also continue to grow

[Brangos99]

Bitcoin is the king of all cryptocurrency. Because bitcoin has a very high price than other cryptocurrency, bitcoin is the oldest cryptocurrency, it has the largest community of developers and investors who support it for further growth.

[gatilocoin]

Bitcoin everyone heard, the most famous crypto, but it seems to me that success is that it is being traded to all crypto, this is the foundation of stability.

[wasaisi]

Because bitcoin is the first coin that is known by many people until now and followed by several altcoins makes bitcoin a king in this crypto currency. Even because the daily circulation of bitcoin becomes a very salable coin in the crypto currency.

[h0lybyte]

Because bitcoin is the fundamental coin in crypto markets, people first come to know about bitcoin and later gradually read about altcoins by chance.
 People believe that bitcoin is well at resturning from huge downfalls, all this happens due to infinite support of people while no other assets in the market has such demand nowadays

[bxipp]

We all knowing bitcoin because it was the first ever crypto that has being made. It gain popularity from it anonymous transaction that made investors want to invest in bitcoin. Now bitcoin has being used in the whole world and being used for all exchanges.

[calandra78]

Bitcoin is the king of all cryptocurrency. Because bitcoin has a very high price than other cryptocurrency, bitcoin is the oldest cryptocurrency, it has the largest community of developers and investors who support it for further growth.

yes bitcoin is the biggest and oldest coin. it has a very high price, and it is a very popular coin, and many investors invest it, which is the reason why bitcoin is king.

[Jocuserious]

[ace1105]

Yes, there is no other crypto that can ever be replace bitcoin when it comes to its stability and high price even its volatility there is still none to replace it, not now and not in the coming more years.

[john_nautica]

because the first time the cryptocurrency coin known to the public is bitcoin, the development of bitcoin is so rapid and extraordinary, the price can reach a high position as it is today, especially if the position of bitcoin has a high total supply that makes the price high and becomes the king to be the main hunting coin for many people.

[mmo_online_1981]

Because most altcoins use Bitcoin as a unit of measurement, bitcoin is the King! This time, there have been many changes to the altcoin such as: ETH, USDT, ....

[knggtrrz]

Because most altcoins use Bitcoin as a unit of measurement, bitcoin is the King! This time, there have been many changes to the altcoin such as: ETH, USDT, ....

Agree, bitcoin is the unit measurement of the market and whenever bitcoin drops all altcoins drops too. So this is really proof that bitcoin will always be the king.

[Gurugan]

It is king because it  is the first cryptocurrency in the world and even now it is in the top of the coin market cap
It is all bcoz of its progress of the coin  so people trust in it

[thunderbitz2717]

Bitcoin has the highest price value among all crypto currencies in this field of business industry. Then, in some other country it became regulated as secondary mode of payment like in Japan and in Korea if I am not mistaken anyway. Aside from that. All over the world Bitcoin is the most useful virtual currency as online payment to the majority of the merchants anywhere in the world too.

[dimiinx]

Because most altcoins use Bitcoin as a unit of measurement, bitcoin is the King! This time, there have been many changes to the altcoin such as: ETH, USDT, ....

Agree, bitcoin is the unit measurement of the market and whenever bitcoin drops all altcoins drops too. So this is really proof that bitcoin will always be the king.

I agree with you bitcoin is the parent or king of alt coin, so it's true that bitcoin is king

[tranle1267]

just the easy reason, bitcoin has a biggest price and volume in the world of crypto, Bitcoin now has been leading the crypto market, so bitcoin is thing King of crypto market.

[Jeffrey Tabicas]

Bitcoin is the king of the cryptocurrency market because of its extremely high price. At some time, Bitcoin's price is higher than other coins else in the market. Of course, no altcoins can replace Bitcoin now,even the future.

[Rebecca Viveiros]

Bitcoin is deserved to be a king above all of other coins in the cryptocurrency market because the popularity of Bitcoin is all around the world. As the topic said, Bitcoin is very popular in Japan and Korean markets, that means people can buy almost things buy Bitcoin. Moreover, Bitcoin can replace money in some majors. So, Bitcoin is the most special coins.

[Gary Menezes]

Bitcoin is the most intelligient coins of all coins due to its decentralized feature. At this point, Bitcoin crosses banknotes because it doesn't need central side to trade. People must not watse a lot of money in transaction fees, even there is no need taxes. Thanks to this benefits, BItcoin is the most convenient coins which people enjoy using.

[ESCN]

It is the king because no other coin as such stable value and it is even the first cryptocurrency and this is why people will keep hope on it and invest in it and there is the result we ate seeing it is in the top of the coin market

[Kathleen Rego]

You can see that Bitcoin is certainly stable more than any other coins. While many other altcoins went up and down then dispearing, Bitcoin also went up and down but still existing. That's is enough for a type of cryptocurrency to become the king.

[#Paul]

It can be said that bitcoin is the king of a coin, it is influenced by other Altcoin coins, Bitcoin itself is a huge financial market, and is not under government control, so of course The more attention is given when political changes take place.

[Eric Hughes]

The first thing which can make people believe that Bitcoin is the King, that is, Bitcoin was created at the beginning of the cryptocurrency market. Of course, Bitcoin is the mother of crypto.

[Amevalentine]

It can be said that bitcoin is the king of a coin, it is influenced by other Altcoin coins, Bitcoin itself is a huge financial market, and is not under government control, so of course The more attention is given when political changes take place.

yes I agree that bitcoin is influenced by altcoin so I think bitcoin is the parent and the selling price is also high so it's true that bitcoin is the king of digital currencies in the world today

[Nanagyasi]

All you have said makes it clear enough to say Btc is a king. I thnk Btc is the  king because of how it has consistently proven to be the controller of the market. During the bear market, and even thereafter, btc has shown to control the market such that a rise in btc results in a rise among all altcoins and vice versa

[A Feeder]

I think bitcoin is the king of coins, because it will had a huge influence to everyone that they praise bitcoin because of the advantage of this like because of bitcoin you have an extra income, help to the financial and especially help to your life. Bitcoin is the most intelligent coins of all coins due to its decentralized feature.

[Dudeperfect]

Well, I agree that there are many other factors making Bitcoin a king of the crypto industry but, I believe that the user base and active community is one of the strongest reasons and factors behind the growth of Bitcoin as a cryptocurrency.  Bitcoin definitely gained some benefits due to its first mover tag but the flow of user base shaped the journey of it since inception and I don't see any reason for it to stop in the coming years.
