We have often witnessed that the growth of altcoin is associated with the growth of bitcoin as whenever there is a pump in the value of bitcoin we have witnessed green days for altcoins too but how long will altcoins be dependent on bitcoin? Do you think altcoin can do it alone and have it's own pump and dump without being dependent on bitcoin? What will it take for altcoin to prosper without bitcoin's involvement?
in 2017 we see ethereum price hitting $1200 during bitcoin price falling , i think it's can happen altcoin will do pump and dump alone, withouth seeing bitcoin price. but in other problem i can say 90% bitcoin rising and pump will impact altcoin price too.
