Hi guys, just wondering about other peoples opinion on this.

In order for the world of Crypto to grow and be mass-adopted, do you think crypto needs to step out of the shadow of Bitcoin or do you think its the other way round and that people should scoop up Bitcoin and let it always rule the roost?
Should be the other way around. Honestly, my impression so far is that most altcoins are just being used as a tool for speculative trading. Sure there are some outliers that actually useful like Ethereum but most are just meant to make gains from crazy speculative trading. Devs pre-mining a coin, ICO organizers take a lot of stakes, pump and dump, market manipulation, that's all I see from most altcoin so far. If crypto ecosystem wants to grow, people need to move on from these things, forget about getting rich quick with a 100x coin, and focus more on things that actually work and have real impact: Bitcoin.
