if no altcoin, may not be the trading coin that we know today. there may be, but there would be little option to redeem bitcoin with the existing currency.

I also agree that without altcoin you cannot do trading because its the alternative of bitcoin and you can only use alt coin in the trading market. You can convert your altcoins earned to bitcoin and then to the currency you are using in your country, to make a clear definition altcoins is nothing without the existence of bitcoin and do remember you must use altcoins for tradings of crypto currencies.

I think you are only looking at one point here, if you read above your post, it was stated that bitcoin is doing fine until several altcoin where created. I agree that altcoin gives more exposure to bitcoin. When it comes to trading, altcoin bitcoin pair is not the only trading pair in the market. Without altcoin, bitcoin will still trade with other currencies as pair (bitcoin/usd, bitcoin/euro, bitcoin/peso, bitcoin/cny etc.)

Bitcoin can survive easily without altcoins, bitcoin have a "good" marketcap, you can trade by any fiat in the world and a lot of others points.

On the other side, altcoins without Bitcoin will have a low visibility and will not reach success, can you imagine an ICO without people putting their Bitcoin?

which is right alt coin won't survive because they needed bitcoin users to support them, but in terms of bitcoin it is already established his name and uses so there's no problem anymore even alt coins is not present.

That is right Bitcoin without Altcoin is stupid Question, it should be Altcoin without Bitcoin. As Altcoin is nothing without Bitcoin because their valuation is measured with bitcoin mostly
