There is something I'm thinking though I don't know if it's right or wrong, that Bitcoin is the prime currency here, not necessarily because of its price but because of its blockchain project and being the first in the system so I'm thinking even if other cryptocurrencies price ever get higher than Bitcoin, will Bitcoin still be seen as the prime cryptocurrency? Or is the whole thing around the Bitcoin centered around its current price in the market?
According to be, the Bitcoin is the prime currency because it was the first cryptocurrency to be launched. Due to this fact, it enjoys the first mover advantages which place it in the advantageous position in comparison to other cryptocurrencies. I think this the main reason that Bitcoin is still the king of the crypto market. The market capitalization plays an important role and not the price.
