As someone who's been on the periphery of #crypto for a while. something amuses me.
The polarisation of this space is reflecting the wider #society. This is evidenced by people taking absolutist positions where they're not warranted.
So let's dispel this. #Bitcoin won't be the only coin standing, because not everyone wants the same thing.
Some people want the pure money of #monero
Some want the #ecosystem #ethereum provides
Some want the instant payments of #XLM
And it goes on.
So most #altcoins will fail, but not all and even those that do fail will fail slowly as they're redundant or superseded.
People are messy and people use #btc so #BTC will be messy. Deal with it. It doesn't really matter.
