It is believed by some crypto enthusiasts that ETH offers more value than BTC and if we look at it critically it is obvious that BTC have more technological value than BTC but the standard of every crypto is based on BTC been the first crypto in existence. BTC is not overpriced and also ETH is not.

I think buying BTC during the bull period last year is still a blessing compare to buying ALTS at that same period because almost all alts have gone 1/10th if the ATH price including ETH. BTC as a low volatile coin still promises some returns in the nearest coming time.

Alts are bleeding because of the present market situation, most people are moving their funds out of alts to BTC that is less volatile compared to alts. This the main reason why alts are bleeding.

Not all coin really have future value as some are just there to scam people of their money. With the load of over 2000 alts on market less than 20 of these coins have future value.

For stability, I use local exchange that make it possible for me to convert my BTC into FIAT and allow me to wait before entering back into the market. USDT, Havven, Corion and the likes may loose their $1 value at any time causing a great loss ones investment.

We are yet to reach crypto adoption stage, before we reach that stage, blockchain technology must have been adopted in governments which will pave way to the usage of cryptocurrencies.

Satoshi can not be careless enough to show his face in this time that governments are desperate to see him. I think the handle is fake and I think it is made by only one of these regular scammers.

I think trading is more than 10% skill mentioned, if someone is really skilled then it would be easy to control the emotion. What really make some to have luck than the other is because of patience. Some are not patient because they use that little profit on trading to sustain.

It is obvious that most cryptocurrency with no utility will crash when the new revolution of crypto market begins. Then new money will be in completion to invest on valuable projects and utility will be more of concern.

If it is accepted world wide then it is very sure that it will have more effect than gold and oil on the economy and many flips will occur if this is the case, crypto holders will become the bosses. This can only be dreamt of, I don't see it coming to reality.

It doesn't seem BTC and other crypto are collosal pump and dump scheme because it really have a value and a purpose as online transaction. Everybody is entitled to its believe.

Etherdelta now have good GUI and the site is now better than before, most decentralized exchange suck during ETH congestion.

Most of the alts are now preparing for the green season. Most of them have reached the bottom and they hold very strong support at the bottom. BTC will be determinant of their next movement.

Let us all see how far BTC will go this year, with ETF news that everyone is expecting and prediction from optimistic analyst that see BTC above $50,000 this year.

ICO has turned to a scam now as every unworthy project now organize ICO in other to make fund for their pocket so I stopped investing in ICO long ago.

Now that most coins are down very low from their ATH, any utility coin is a good buy. Just as @Donationcoin said ADA, NEO etc. are good buy now.

If it's a qt wallet that have wallet.DAT file it is easy to retrieve but if not if the key is lost and there's no backup the the coins inside that wallet is lost forever.

The only reason governments have to ban BTC is because of inflation, and the advantage even out weight just that due to the technology on which it is based. Government should rather concentrate on how to make use of this technology rather than finding ways to ban crypto. 

BTC is the standard of all cryptocurrency and the technology behind it gives rise to other series of cryptocurrency. So BTC value still remain till present and I doubt if another project can take the glory.

BTC will stay as number one in store of value, investment and freedom from global control but in terms of privacy, fund transfer, transaction fees, transaction speed etc. Some other cryptocurrency are better off than BTC. BTC can still remain number one as a standard but not because of its features.
