The only reason Bitcoin is more valuable then other altcoins is first mover advantage. It's the truth if you compare bitcoin to a lot of alt coins on the technical side Bitcoin is lacking heavily. If the Protocol was updated to do something more like a lot of altcoins do I feel this is what would truly make the Bitcoin price sky rocket.

Any body that would dispute this premise has their eyes closed. All coins at risk of 51% will ultimately be replaced including bitcoin.

Just like all of those beautiful homes in southern California sitting on earthquake faults, it is just a matter of time.

And of our kids will say, "You mean you used to mine virtual currencies??!"

If there was good solution to 51% problem, dont you think Bitcoin would use it already?

PoS has been proven to be quite secure by now. The only reason Bitcoin doesn't change, is because miners would not agree since it would make their hundred of millions of dollars worth of equipment obsolete.

Bitcoin/sha 256 is the Model-t of virtual currencies. What happened to the Model-t? What is going to happen with bitcoin?
