Bitcoin will dominate the market for many years because it is the most adapted crypto in the world. However time will come when bitcoin will lose it's top position and then we will see new coins rising to the top.

I'll be short and clear, the majourity dealers around the world have BTC, don't you see the  gossip of 15.000$ and 100.000$ so no one wants to miss the chance or buy it late after rising.

Actually every currency do it follow Bitcoin market,I have to say don't forget real buy opportunity because will get long profit after Bitcoin price up. Prosper big trader people don't follow Bitcoin price,up/down it their own opportunity.

Bitcoin is the oldest crypto asset, so it will determine the value of all the others. The cost of Bitcoin as the oldest, well-known and stable cryptocurrency, is an indicator of investor interest in the entire sphere.

The cost of bitcoin affects the market only indirectly, since the cost of bitcoin itself depends on the same factors that also affect the rest of the market. But many people confuse the concept of the standard, which at the moment is Bitcoin and the value factor.

I think that the cryptocurrency market will always focus on bitcoin as the very first and main cryptocurrency. Moreover, the majority of investors see in bitcoin the prospect of becoming a major global currency.

Until recently crypto price movements were based on the movement of bitcoin prices, because almost all altcoins followed the movement of bitcoin prices, when bitcoin experienced a very drastic price reduction almost all altcoins followed the decline, although there were some altcoins that experienced an increase in price for sure because there are a number of people who deliberately play the price to attract attention for investors to be able to invest in it.

I will tell you, other coins, just keep on credibility bitcoin, as even the most high-end coins have not shown even a single really working product

There is always going to be one coin that is the leader of the market, this is true not only in cryptocurrencies but in all markets as well, just look for the US dollar as an example of a coin that is the leader of the market and if for some reason it stopped being the leader then another currency will take its place, and while many have speculated that another coin could take the place of bitcoin that is not realistic at the moment.

To begin with the market cap of bitcoin is huge and it is the only coin big enough to perform that role and second the remaining candidates like ETH and XRP have several fatal flaws that will never allow either one of those coins to ever take the lead of the market.

Bitcoin has many competitors and new altcoins appear all the time, but it won't be able to shift the dominance of bitcoin from the crypto market. This is because bitcoin is the first, most expensive, most popular and proven to have created many millionaires throughout the world. The history of bitcoin prices in December 2017, made bitcoin hunted by investors.
