Bitcoin isn't moving very much just now. Up a tiny bit and then down a tiny bit. Would this be very boring for people. This might not encourage more people to buy. I think the only way people buy is if it's going up and down more. Because then at least they will have half a chance of making a good profit.
That's why alts are there, we can't rely forever on bitcoin if we need an investment that could give us good profits. Just try to look around and you'll see some of cryptos that are way more volatile and has more pumps compared to bitcoin in the last few days or weeks.
