A lot of us are aware of the ideology Bitcoin maximalism. To put it short, a bitcoin maximalist believes that bitcoin is the one and only crypto needed. A bitcoin maximalist believes that bitcoin will be the only crypto to give you significant profit and the one that is the most useful in the real world.

I think this way too, and I have never thought for one moment that I could be a Bitcoin maximalist. But considering the fact that my opinion about Bitcoin does not affect altcoins negatively, does it really matter if I am a Bitcoin maximalist or not? Definitions it does not, because my advice to those who wish to enter into the crypto space is that they do proper research to know what coin matches their risks tolerance. As for me, Bitcoin matches my risks tolerance, however, that does not mean that my opinion about altcoins will not change in the future if they are able to overcome my doubts about them.

It's just the fact that alts are usually not so idealistic, BTC crushes them in that regard and decentralization-wise.

In other departments, some coins are interesting, some - outright rugs, and so on..

Yeah, that's right but not to everyone. That is why newbies, especially, should not just jump on any coin because people are investing in it. Every coin (both Bitcoin and altcoins) has its individual value and what it stands for. The fact that altcoins don't appeal to me yet does not mean everyone else sees them the way I do. I have had my personal experiences with altcoins, and I will reserve my comments for now until I begin to see clear reasons again to consider altcoins.
