Blockchain Technology was driven to fame by its application on Bitcoin Gold due to its encryption that has been considered hacker proof. Bitcoin has been used as a reference to its success, providing a secure network for users.
The question however is, can blockchain succeed without bitcoin?
Probably no, because bitcoin is the most popular coin, and therefore most users are into bitcoin. If the bitcoin will be gone, blockchain will be useless, because its market are bitcoin users, so how will you survive if the market was gone. Bitcoin can drag everything.
