I just wanted to get your opinions on this one , what do you think Bitcoin would be if there was no Alternative coins such Litecoin & Dogecoin and the others ...
I mean it would be better with or without them Bitcoin would have no value at all ?

I think the existence of other altcoins is good for Bitcoin. Of course I mean successfully functioning altcoins with big market cap and with good acceptance. Looking at them people can see how good are crypos in general and thus like Bitcoin more, because Bitcoin is better than any other crypto in the sense of acceptance, market cap, price in USD and because it was the very first one of them.

Well yeah I think the same thing too, if there were no other altcoins except bitcoin, then bitcoin would not have grown like what we see today. I mean bitcoin would not have anything to compare and compete with, and although the number bitcoin users might increase because there were nothing besides bitcoin, bitcoin would keep staying at the same level and we would never know how strong it is. It's like what's the point of entering a competition if you are the only competitor.
