I somewhat agree with what you've said. Bitcoin is the only "reliable" coin that you can hold for the long term. However, it doesn't mean that people should stop investing in other projects. A diverse portfolio is always better than hedging your bets on just one coin or asset. I also see potential in SOL, ETH, and other altcoins. Of course, research is crucial and you must not invest blindly.
Well it depends on the personal preference of each participant actually. Because if you are here long term like 10 or 20 years of investment, of course the most reliable digital asset that you can invest to that is available right now is Bitcoin. However, if you are just here short term so that you can play around with daily fluctuations then you can trade with major Altcoins like ETH, SOL, VET. Because there's no worry on it years from now. you're just there short term. You don't worry about fundamentals, you are just interested purely in possible 10x 100x or 50x of price of the coin short term.
Yes, it will depend on each person's investment taste because not everyone likes safety, many people are willing to accept risks to gain high profits. And in this case bitcoin is not the best choice, altcoin will be a more suitable choice.
I also don't deny bitcoin is the best but that doesn't mean I will ignore the bigger opportunities with altcoins. I think we should not be too stubborn and ignore the opportunities to gain huge profits from altcoins, which bitcoin cannot bring us.
People who are stubborn and try to impose their thoughts on others should not invest in altcoins, which reminds me of what gold investors also told early bitcoin investors. But as a result, because of their stubbornness, they missed the opportunity to own bitcoin when it was priced below $1k, $100 or $1.
