There are over a thousand companies and stocks listed on major U.S stock exchanges.  Despite tech giants like Apple (APPLE) and Google (ALPHABET) having near trillion dollar valuations, its has not taken away from the other approx 20,000 other stocks sold on various exchanges:

There are only only approx 900 Altcoins in the world compared to 20,000 U.S stocks.  

Bitcoin (BTC) has a valuation of approx $40 Billion USD but smaller Altcoins like FOOTYCASH (FOOT)  and Tatoocoin Limited Edition (TLE) have seen 5000%+ increases in the past month.

Are Altcoins becoming the new penny stocks?



UPDATE:

With the Feds now trying to regulate tokens like DAO, does this mean that altcoins are poised take over Wall Street?
