Recently I have observed that for every pump or increase in price of bitcoin, there is no corresponding increase in the price of altcoins
Even though this causes a lot of people to worry, it is best as it prepares altcoins for self dependence and it also limits manipulation of altcoins
Soon enough both bitcoin and altcoins will be non dependent on one another totally
Eventually, non dependency of both will happen and I totally agree to that. Some alt coins today have been spiking on their own and I don't think it is because of bitcoin's decline. So I agree that it's independency in the future will eventually happen. A separate market for bitcoins and alt coins will happen.
