Something came out in my mind recently:
How would the price of Bitcoin change if there were no other cryptocurrency than Bitcoin?
Would Bitcoin develop faster without a competition?

Many people believe that if there is no alternative cryptocurrency, the price of Bitcoin will rise because it has no competition.

But, in my opinion, the price of Bitcoin is lower if it does not have a competition. Why? Because if there is no competition, the buyer's thinking is "should I buy this or not?" however if there is competition, the buyer's mind is "should I buy Bitcoin or these alts?"

As a result, not just Bitcoin but other altcoins will benefit. So, rather than being upset or sad because there is a competition, we can look at it in a positive way.

The price will only increase if there is demand. I think the existence of a single coin does not affect the price much. According to the simple rule of economics, the more buyers of a good, the more its price increases. Therefore, whether Bitcoin stands alone or not, it can proceed in a similar way.

There are many cryptocurrencies, but which one can you trust as much as Bitcoin? Your answer to this question will be similar to the answer you would give to the question asked in the topic.
