i've been around this community a few years and i still don't get why anyone would chose bitcoin.

don't get me wrong i believe in an alternative p2p currency, but to me bitcoin certainly doesn't cut it.

about the only answer people have is first mover advantage. but that's pretty much it.

bitcoin seems to, over time, be drifting more into a centralised system, core dev team where so few as 5 completely control the code, backed by what has come to light time and time again a very questionable central organisation.

have VC with their little startups jumping on board left right and center, and we know their goals Kiss

, bitcoin's heading more and more like being the bank product it was meant to be an alternative to Shocked

seems the only way to back bitcoin is keep your head it the sand and hope it'll all turn out good in the end........

well i think it is because bitcoin is already an established crypto currency unlike those altcoins even though some of them are innovative are not yet well established and not much of it are supported by many people

invest in other altcoin is like a gambling with no guarantee return of your initial amount there is much big risk involve in it but Bitcoin is the safest investment for bright future, so much public awareness and merchant acceptance around the globe.

I Agree. Altcoin is not a better option no doubt it is attractive at present but there is high level of risk involved with it so its better to stick with bitcoins and as the adoption and acceptance level will go high the bitcoin will regain its popularity and the perfect value.

There are quite a few alt-coins that are gaining popularity, and there are quite a few alt-coins that are more innovative than Bitcoin.
Their only drawback is that they came after Bitcoin and Bitcoin is well established now.
