You don't understand me. I'm speaking about "the experience economy" theory and about consumer choice, not about coffee or hamburgers.
Altcoins are created for many different reasons and things. But we are talking not about for which reasons their original devs have created them,
but will people use them, or not, will people spend them, or not, will people buy goods or services with them.

I don't mean altcoins like altcoin of runners, altcoin of aquarium fans, altcoin of coffee lovers etc.

An example: DOGE was created for fun. The question is will DOGE lovers use Dogecoin to buy goods or services, or they will use BTC alone.
My answer is yes, they will use DOGE.

This thread is a complete fail. Altcoins are created for many different reasons. Some are created to serve a particular community, or as stated above, most of the time they are created to make bitcoins. Your analogy fails.
Altcoins are for so many different things and reasons that your comparison is not even close.
Worst analogy ever. You FAIL at analogies.
