Does BTC act like gold in the fiat market?

I don’t understand why this currency is still mainly on the cryptomarket. If we take the top 2 ETH, then this token has a huge technological potential with its ICO, NFT, DEFI also has multiple cross-chains that expand the ETH ecosystem.
What keeps BTC so high? If we speak openly, then BTC has no role in itself, it's just a dummy compared to other technologies on the other crypto
P.S. This is my opinion I just want to know
Bitcoin is the strongest chain with the most hashrate, hence it is the most secure chain out there, hence it does attract most of the money coming into the market, especially from institutional investors, hence the ecosystem around Bitcoin gets the most support and experiences the quickest legitimization and adoption. There are so many reasons why Bitcoin is at the top and will probably stay there, I can't even think of the length of the list.
