"Bitcoin the Camel of Cryptocurrency"
Bitcoin is more than a crypto currency to me, Bitcoin is an idea (first crypto currency) and Ideas as it is been said rules and never dies and when one tries to stop a revolutionary Idea they usually end up making it more popular and known because Ideas are usually encapsulated with high corrosive energy or burning force (drive) which gives birth to a revolutionary change and yet remains which to me seems to be typical in Bitcoin's metamorphosis from it's genesis stage to booming stages now.
Satoshi though took a lot of inspiration from cyberpunks and so technically it could not be the first cryptocurrency. However, it's the prime mover as we have seen in the last decade or so, it really took off and it's a revolution that we are all part of.
Bitcoin is the Camel of crypto, and as we all know,Camels are used to carry too many loads, valuables etc in a long journey and Bitcoin in my own point of view as a new bee seem to me, to be in a journey (non-deterministic but futuristically in a positive repositioning).
I'm not sure about the comparison though, but as I have said, it's the prime mover, and you can see the dominance of Bitcoin. There could be that argument though that Bitcoin in the future might not be as dominant as today and could replaced. But we can't really tell, so for now, why not we just enjoyed it, be it sound money, store of value, assets or hedge against inflation.
