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.
If you are expecting any kind of price hike for the coins you are in for a world of hurt, this is the year of the bear and the next year is most likely just going to continue in the bear. It is time to make peace with the fact that there is no way that we are actually going to see any kind of bull in the market this year. Get comfortable with the bear
