Yeah and to buy those altcoins you have to buy bitcoin first. So it is actually helping bitcoin.

That is not entirely true you could purchase altcoins using fiat too and all the major exchanges do accept dollars. One coin that has a major volume is Ripple and it is not a big issue as the alt coin scene has more than 260 coins and you really cannot compare one coin against the rest and say the dominance is less.

An infinitesimal number of coins are bought using fiat and while that is slowly changing, as of today it thats the way it is. If fiat becomes the dominant way to purchase altcoins btc price would drop.
