- Alts work like a testnet for bitcoins (looking forward seeing Litecoin with SegWit)
- Once an alt feature looks working it might get adopted no matter onchain or in a side chain. (RSK)
- Alts mostly need bitcoin to trade and some bitcoins might be always reserved / locked for this.
- Alts might help to generate a closed bitcoin economy
My favorit comes here:
- Alts work like an infinite fear generator (Hydra) against any try of regulators to bring bitcoin down, since there are too many to kill and its very easy to just create a new one (like a Hydra cannot be killed by chopping off some heads, even the biggest one!) > crypto world is anti fragile and it will stay on this solar system from year 2009 on.
Any other things missing here?
Bitcoin literally in my country's currency is very very expensive, where an ordinary people like me can't directly buy bitcoin. But because of altcoin I can have a chance to have a bitcoin balance by simply promoting it through signature campaign which I had joined it before. And with it, I could have a chance to save also some of bitcoin in my storage wallet for the future. - Alts work like a testnet for bitcoins (looking forward seeing Litecoin with SegWit)
