It's almost 8 months of 2018 and we have not seen any reasonable hikes for the altcoins,
It was only Ethereum that hit a good value of almost 1.4k$ in the beginning of the year . Since then it's pretty dull.
Forget overtaking can any ALTCOIN ever reach a value near Bitcoin.
Altcoin cannot surpass bitcoins price that easily.Its popularity cannot be surpasses by etherium or any other crypto because bitcoin have earned so much fame on the crypto community and it is the strongest and the most commonly used nowadays.
