Anyone can say anything. It doesn't make the statement valid.
Agree. Everyone can say whatever they want - future of bitcoin/crypto, next
BTC, etc...
A lot of projects attempted to at least attain even half of the popularity of
BTC, but, they failed.
And few months from now, visit this thread and more than likely the project that the OP was talking about is already dead.
Bitcoin is bitcoin and no matter how hard those new altcoins try to defeat bitcoin, they will not be able to. This coin had already established its name and as the most popular crypto which many people are interested in investing to, no altcoin would ever be able to beat that. Bitcoin continue to rise and as soon as early 2018 come, there will be more demand for bitcoin. Bitcoin will remain on the top so instead of trying to beat bitcoin with a new altcoin why not just invest in it?
Yes of course, bitcoin has a great story and many people have become adepts out of pure faith on the coin. You cannot replicate that overnight, so ... no chance of it happening no.
