Re: Bitcoin doing monopoly business in cryptocurrency platform !
Lol, let's define monopoly first:
It's not even monopoly. The cryptocurrency market is a free one, where everyone is free to choose which coins to use. Bitcoin is the largest because the majority gives it high regard, not because it tries to gobble up its smaller competitors -- something which monopolistic firms actually do. The market has actually been increasingly competitive if we use Bitcoin dominance as a "competitiveness" metric. Either way, you can't stop the best from being the most successful.
What is a 'Monopolistic Market'?
A monopolistic market is a theoretical construct in which only one company may offer products and services to the public. This is the opposite of a perfectly competitive market, in which an infinite number of firms operate. In a purely monopolistic model, the monopoly firm can restrict output, raise prices and enjoy super-normal profits in the long run.

I think what he is trying to say is that Bitcoin had a monopoly {dominance} over other Alt coins and that the situation is changing
very fast now. I have to agree with him in a sense... Every Alt coin dilutes potential investment capital that might have been invested
into Bitcoin, so it is chasing it's own tail now. We need new investors to give it real growth.
