I can't change your mind. Only you can. But I'd tell you about a father that gave birth to so many children. Amongst the children, some grew to become successful, while others didn't. The children learnt so much from their parents, but were not completely similar. From the short story the father created the opportunities for the children, and they relied on the father's influence. I think that's one way to describe the relationship between bitcoin and majority of the alts.

There would be no alts without bitcoin, and majority of them relies on bitcoin. Just so you know, I'm not trying to win your mind over
