Apparently, it's the idea all along for most when it comes to making an altcoin investment in the bear market. The coins in the top 10 often seens to stand out and holds promises and is mostly believed to have less potency of dumping as this is often the case for altcoins during the long winters but, we know that's not entirely what is obtainable.
Looking at the presented table right now, I could note how XRP have fallen over the years and it's surprising its been a major competitor to ETH and now, its gradually falling off the top 10. That's the reality to it as per market capitalization, its time definitive and means very little.

Bitcoin becomes the only coin that is sure to maintain its position as per being pioneer currency and the changes that occurs on the coin is what is reflected on other coins. It leads everytime.
