They suffer from second child syndrome.

I've been reading a lot about the royal baby about to be born and it made me think. Can this be applied to crypto as well? In particular alt coins? Read the passage below, does this sound familiar? Is this why there is so much FUD and rivalry? Do you agree? This is another reason why I don't believe these coins have any future. Their older siblings stole the limelight.

"... when your second child arrives, the experience is not so new. You've been there, done that. So what if your second child stood up for the first time, you've seen that before. However, it is still a first for him, isn't it? But because you've seen all this you probably fail to recognize this, and many more such achievements throughout, that makes him feel less recognized and unworthy. He may thus also begin to develop resentful feelings for his sibling, which may lead to sibling rivalry."

Bitcoin was an awesome idea, but lets face it, it needs to be improved upon.  That is why Litecoin is better.  I would say NXT and Ripple is better than Bitcoin too, but that is bullshit.  Ripple is a full on premine owned almost all by the Ripple foundation.  And NXT isn't much better too.  It was started by a known sock puppet master.  He probably had like half of NXT.

I’d like to announce Nxt (pronounced as "next"), a cryptocurrency based on Bitcoin paradigm.

I don't know anything about NEM or Stellar, so I can't talk about them.  What we need is a platform that isn't founded in bullshit. 

What does LTC do that 100's of other alt coins can't do? Technically a lot of alt coins are 'better' in your perspective because they have faster tx times. Therefore, why have they failed to gain any meaningful marketshare? How can a coin based on being silver to Bitcoin's gold ever hope to overtake it?

Conclusion
Do fast tx times = success? No.
