Bitcoin's success or fail cannot be attributed to other coins being created.

It will succeed or fail on its own..

In my honest opinion alternate cryptocurrencies are a joke because a new cryptocurrency gets created every week.

A few months back new altcoins were being created every other day. Big slow down since BTC has gone down in price.

I support a decentralized & unregulatable ledger first, with safe scaling over time.

I mostly agree, but your statement has nothing to do with your topic.

There are new websites created each week, that does not make Google.com a joke.



The price of bitcoin is being held down due to ALL the attention being paid to the POS side (sell side) of integration.

Not until we see an equal amount of attention being paid to payroll integration (buy side) will the scales become balanced.

Do not think so, alternate cryptocurrencies are seperate markets, BTC market prices going up and down by BTC market itself  Grin

Your thoughts?

I think the inverse is true, that the price of altcoins depend on the price of bitcoins.

I think they would have helped.

If people see a new altcoin which they know will have a great price swing or they really want to pump it, they will invest fiat in the form of bitcoin into it.

At the end everything if there is anything left will be converted back to bitcoin..

It's totally wrong
AltCoin can help bitcoin price rising up

Most cases you have to buy altcoin with bitcoin
So, you have to buy bitcoin first.

And most AltCoin will become fail, only few of them can compete with bitcoin

A lot of the investment in altcoins comes indirectly into Bitcoin, which helps to keep up the Bitcoin price.
Bitcoin price is dropping as the merchants accepting it does not hold it but convert to fiat immediately.

I think altcoins in general are a bit of a joke. There are a few that are innovative, but I think their future is relant on bitcoins success, not the other way round.

3000 -> 2000, bitcoin down
0.1 -> 0.01, altcoin balanced

Most alts are bitcoin with a different name. Changing the name is the devs only innovation.

Well this would be true or valid, only if the founder sells the bitcoin .
In the case of Ethereum this was true.

Do this simple calculation.
Assume all the market cap of alternate cryptocurrencies is transferred to Bitcoin.
What would Bitcoin's price be? Is it going to make a significant difference?
