Does the quality and count of new crypto-currencies affect on the bitcoin price?
If it really does, then how?

no. toy exchanges are not directly linked to the BTC/fiat markets - however, they may have an influence when miners sell off altcoins to buy BTC for the purpose of converting to fiat currencies, as the price which that BTC is sold will have an impact (if even small) on the prices

I'm sure it affects it, but I don't think it's possible to know how.
Some crappy coins will give a bad impression of all crypto currencies, including BTC.
But some coins (even some crappy ones) can introduce new people to the crypto world, and eventually they'll learn about Bitcoin.
So, not sure if it affects up or down.

Alts have an effect by making the BTC more stable and have less/smaller spike effects. Simply because alts are traded against BTC and this generates a deeper market. Some major alts like LTC and DOGE can also have small effect on BTC price, but not too much.

thanks for answers
if I'm wrong, please correct effect depends only on conversions between btc and some altcoin, and this effect is very small

No. Although without alt coins a large percentage of people using, holding, and knowing about crypto currencies would not exist today...

Yes the bitcoin price is affected, because people prefer to invest in altcoins for increases their profits. How does that affect the USD market cap for bitcoin? Bitcoins aren't being sold for USD to buy altcoins. If we get to a point where people are buying altcoins for USD then yeah that could have an effect.

Only when you think of different crypto coins serving different purposes, it would lead to a higher overall market cap of crypto coins and therefore to a deepening of the market. By increasing the market cap of all crypto coins and introducing auto mining and trading mechanisms like the one of www.genesis-mining.com the price of bitcoin could be stabilized. This mechanisms mine the most profitable altcoins and exchanged them to bitcoin. Introducing a perfect market

Why would that lead to the stabilization of bitcoin? And why does miners hopping around drastically changing the hash on different networks help?

The higher the market cap the lower the volatility since the impact if single transactions decreases. Whether the drastically changing hoppers stabalize or destabilize is a good question.. Think of high frequency trading (super computers which predict stock prices by using past price developments http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-frequency_trading) On the one hand it smoothens market imperfections on the other hand it might cause significant price jumps.

Alt market is currently overloaded IMO :-)... But at the end 0.1% of them will create something BIG. **** After any successful coin whole shit is starting again... Ltc -alt spam Doge - alt spam Blackcoin - alt spam DRK - alt anon spam ... what next ? no one know all want get +1000% income in week but not many improve existing coins... BTC will remain king of crypto for a while ... soome day will me like e-gold while others will be in use.

It does affect one way or other, alt-coin pump and dump causes many of my friend to think cryptocurrency is a scam.
