Bitcoin has the strongest brand name in crypto whether it “has a strong use case” or not. Maybe it gets dethroned at some point, but maybe not. It is thought of as the “store of digital gold” and most businesses and investors are building their strategies and protocols around bitcoin being the coin they are trying to acquire the most.
Think about the crypto landscape for a moment… as this year (2019) has been ecosystem building, more and more institutions and investors are primed to enter the market FINALLY educated enough to feel more confident in investing within the space. They come to understand what all these coins are, what they mean and they want some sort of “solid framework” to not only educate the newcomers but have solid strategies in place. So if bitcoin was bouncing around and alternating position power, it would make things MUCH more difficult to understand or to maneuver safely around the crypto space.
Many companies will accept bitcoin first and other alts as a secondary option. Bitcoin, being the first crypto, also has a solid team of fanatics constantly looking to improve the coins tech so it can actually scale up and not cost so much to send.
There’s also only 21M that will ever be minted so while adoption takes place, the scarcity becomes more valuable thus the coin will keep climbing. The good news is also that all cryptos WOULD NOT BE AROUND if it were not for bitcoin and out of respect for this, it will “not disappear from the market” unlike most cryptos currently on the market. Those with the strongest brand name, use case and adoption rate will be around in a few years, bitcoin being one of them.
Look at Amazon or Netflix stocks when they first entered the market and were “speculative” and look at where they are now… Buying just a 100 shares of each would net you tens of thousands of dollars each
