Gentlemen, I'm new this forum, but I've about 2yr on criptocurrency after being a bitcoin adversary (I'm very conservative about money) by about 4yr, now I´m a bitcoin-criptocurrency advocate.

I like to read analysis and predictions but rarely I consider, becuse these most of the time these fails or are biased on purpose to handle some market or build matrix.

IMHO AltCoins specially ETH and XMR will raise faster in price than Bitcoin, key factor in favor to ETH/XMR is TRANSACTION COST (also transaction speed), Monero also as addon has its extra annonimity but on the long run this annonimity maybe it achiles heel.

At some point the network will rise ETH and XMR difficulty this is the only redflag I see on the upcoming months, but that willonly means less coins that sure will sell twice than today, Mining with GPUs and ALTc wont ever be the same as it was with Bitcoin, alcoins only will raise difficulty in proportion to GPU efficiency while rewards may down (I speculate a dynamic reward system will raise at anytime along alll the alt coins).

Current profitability wont last, that's true, since money attracts money this mean the hashrate to rise (and later the difficulty), but also the transactions will raise fast because Bitcoin's ills -mining, speed, safety privacy -, the time ETH and XMR where seeing as failed experiments left far behind.

I dont mention Zcash and others since I haven stuty it enough, but I'm confident with this prediction: AltCoins RISE its inminent will last unles *unlikely* Bitcoing solves its mining I'lls.

Factors Pushing AltCoins:

• Bitcoin Mining Ills (neither B.U. nor SegWit will solve the root cause: chinese mining hogs),
  
• Bitcoin Transaction Cost (collateral from Mining Ills)
  
• Trust (now ETH and XMR and Others arent seen as experiments)
  
• Transaction Speed (Ok it depends on how much Atl Coins Grew and its mining grew but with balance it will be favorable by long time)
  
• Privacy
