From a "lets make the world a better place perspective" should we support only bitcoin right now or altcoins also?
Everyone is just concerned about profit and will choose an option that is giving the maximum returns. When bitcoins was not there, most of the people were investing in stock or shares. Where all the support for shares went ? All human being are greedy by nature and it is obvious that they are not loyal to any investment option.
Only people really concerned about bitcoins are the developers. They must be seeing their project at their child and will do everything possible to ensure that it lives forever.
