BTC will stay as number one in store of value, investment and freedom from global control but in terms of privacy, fund transfer, transaction fees, transaction speed etc. Some other cryptocurrency are better off than BTC. BTC can still remain number one as a standard but not because of its features.
Bitcoin also ranks first in the capacity of the mining network. This factor is also involved in pricing. Now small miners are not profitable to mining bitcoin, so soon the price will increase.
