 I want to know why is only Bitcoin in the limelight I have someone that wants to invest in crypto but wants to invest in other coins he wants to know if other are same values as bitcoin and if other coins can be easily be exchanged or sell  or for purchases.

It is quite understandable that Bitcoin makes the crypto world known to us. Bitcoin brings the name of crypto into the new generation of investment. It paints already on our minds, in fact, some people talk about crypto we never know that they are talking only about Bitcoin.
Generally speaking, Bitcoin is very popular among cryptocurrencies and it was not surprising that newcomers will come and look for Bitcoin. Soon they will find altcoins and might leave Bitcoin, that seems to happen.

There are several reasons.

• The first crypto
• The largest makret cap
• The highest price per coin
• The largest acceptance worldwide
• The only truly decentralized cryptocurrency
• The most regulations and laws where it's mentioned
• Has the largest community

It's great that bitcoin is the first thing that comes to people's minds and I hope it stays this way forever.

You are absolutely on point.
 Bitcoin has gained dominance among other cryptocurrencies and its relevance to those who have used it is nothing short of expectation. As word of mouth from testimonials reveal this truth, more persons with an interest in owning some of bitcoins has skyrocketed, mostly as people these days are looking for alternative sources of income to aid the current economic downturn we all are experiencing worldwide.

Even as at today, so many persons are ignorant of other altcoins and crypto currency, Bitcoin has gone so vast and is in the mouth of everyone, now this isn't just because the where the first crypto, neither is it because of the CEO as stated by you, matter of fact, bitcoin isn't ran or accountable to anyone.

Bitcoin is a decentralized system and has the largest community service, it is also the best widely recognized coin meaning, some persons accept it as exchange.
