Now I learnt that the Altcoin  was lunched after Bitcoin
Not really, there were few cryptocurrency launched before Bitcoin https://www.investopedia.com/tech/were-there-cryptocurrencies-bitcoin/

The definition of altcoins is other coins except Bitcoin, the specific versions of altcoins are privacy coins, stable coins, meme coins, gambling coins etc https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories

Some users call altcoins with "shitcoins" because most of them didn't offer any use case.
