Wouldn't gold's physical nature be a real weakness because it could cause a "centralization in vaults" problem? How much gold can an individual legally own and store in your homes in your country?
Then there is Bitcoin. It is virtual, and it opens a world of private key ownership, and therefore,
true sovereign ownership of private property which governments cannot control.

I wonder what is the main reason why did the ethereum is on bull run? Is it because of the Constantinople upgrade?

I guess ETH is back to its pavilion now, nearly it has pumped upto $70 from last week and slowly rocking, Yes it was really struggling this entire last quarter due to continuous price fluctuations. I hope it will regain its position as king of Alts

Currently you can buy XRP, as it is likely to be a very similar base currencies BTC and ETH on Binance. For reasons Recently there was a movement to vote for the right Binance for XRP as one of the basic currencies.

Bitcoin is part of blockchain. maybe if bitcoin is over, there will be a better replacement. but also impossible for now. the river will still flow even without the fish. conclusion blockchain will always exist, though without bitcoin.

Projects are quite different, and each has its own goals. If I had to choose something for investment, I would choose Ripple, he has an excellent news background, it is fairly well integrated with the real world of fiat, and this is only the beginning. The Tron stands still like most successful projects.

I think the right statement is bitcoin is not controlling the market but bitcoin affects the market with prices. wherever the market is available it is an exchange that can be done with bitcoin, so I think bitcoin continues to influence the market.
