There is no doubt for now that bitcoin can't still be replaced by those altcoins. Let's take the full decentralised nature of bitcoin aside. In what way do you think those alternative currencies won't be able to compete and replace Bitcoin usage? 
 
No discrimination; it's just a matter of time. If there is always a price hike on the transaction fee of Bitcoin, there will definitely be a competent competitor that will take away that throne from Bitcoin. The world is revolving, and we are all open to embracing new technologies as long as they will serve the purpose we need them for.

In terms of security/reliability, Litecoin is inferior to Bitcoin. But I get the point. You must take advantage of low fees for your own benefit. There are times when Bitcoin becomes heavily-congested, resulting in higher than average network fees (Ordinals craze, halving event, etc). That's where altcoins like Litecoin and Dogecoin come in. I'm surprised how undervalued LTC is, especially when it was touted as "Silver to Bitcoin's Gold" in the early days. It's often overlooked by mainstream traders and investors alike.

Despite the benefits of Litecoin, that won't stop some people from becoming a Bitcoin maximalist. You are free to choose your own cryptocurrency for day-to-day payments. Some people prefer to use only Bitcoin because of its unmatched security/reliability/decentralization, while others prefer BTC and a combination of alts out of convenience. Crypto land has gone far since BTC's inception, so I'd expect it to grow further in the future. This means altcoins will be relevant whenever you like it or not. Only time will tell us which ones will fail, and which ones will survive the tide.

I grow up and learn that Bitcoin has always been the best, some of the people that project that idea most of them has left the forum and hasn't returned and during the course of those idea digestion, I do feel a bit out of their league but of course, don't want to be off person I do follow up their ideas but later I think there is no best in life, there's always be something that will replace the existing ones whether we accept it or not bit that doesn't mean the previous is not the good.

Bitcoin might not have a replacement now but development can come from anyone. The idea of decentralization isn't even that string again, just do the maths and check the wallet address that are holding millions of Bitcoin, they are centralized wallet and institutional investors, the retailers which are the people have one or less than one in their wallet address. We can't continue with 10 min transaction, who knows what the world will say tomorrow.

Very well said, I fully support your thoughts and whatever you said about maximalism and Bitcoin maximalists is true. Being part of Bitcoin community, I'm also someone who wholeheartedly support Bitcoin and anything related to it, but I wouldn't consider myself as Bitcoin maximalist because I'm also into other well-known crypto currencies and I do use those more often sometimes when Bitcoin fees get higher.

I've been part of Bitcoin community since 2016 and I'll always say that there's no other cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, but that's my pure love for Bitcoin as it helped me to become financially stable but it doesn't mean that other cryptocurrencies are less good as compare to Bitcoin. When it comes to privacy then there's no match for Monero, and when it comes to speed then LiteCoin does quite good in that department.

Love for one thing is a good but that doesn't means that one should consider it superior than others. I know Bitcoin is on top and it will always be on top but surely there are many cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin that most of us use on daily, weekly or at least monthly basis and some of those really solve our issues. As a trader I often use USDT as that's a stable coin and that's much better to secure your profits then Bitcoin as it can get some dips.

Being a maximalist prevents someone from understanding good qualities of other things and that's why I believe one should try to avoid being a maximalist at any cost.

I don't blame anyone for chosen to be a bitcoin maximalist as it's a fault not theirs, for the coin has earned it and if there develops any other altcoins that could match up to that position as bitcoin has, then we won't be having this discussion. Investors are mostly interested to put their money on assets with considerable measure of security, less risk and not some potential pump and dump coin's. And most importantly, for the drama's many investors has experienced with many of these altcoins they had trust on but which later became a disappointment you then don't really expect to see a growing maximalists community forming around any altcoin.

I think the failure of Altcoins is the reason why many of them has refused to accept them, right From ICO time there has never been any successful altcoins that has good reputation like Bitcoin, only ethereum come close but I always have issues with the maximum supply since nothing has been said about that supply but look at Bitcoin, it's just 21 maximum supply, no team, no foundation, no treasury, no ventures and all sort of seed rounds yets it's doing better.

However, I think there is nothing bad if you risk little. If you have had the opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin, the love and passion to see Bitcoin grow shouldn't stop one from looking at other opportunities. There are many alcoins that have printed life changing profits that you can take and still invest the money back into Bitcoin and you will be getting rich and richer in Bitcoin, that's what a smart maximalist should do and not hate every ideas.

I’ve always thought that people should be diversified in whatever manner they are comfortable with. I don’t see crypto as an exception to that rule. Especially in technology, where trying new things and seeing what is possible is important. That being said, Bitcoin is number one and there is no second best.

Every person's point of view will be different, it is normal that my point of view will be the same, the person who will be against me will have the same point of view and somehow we can't think about anything without profit, it is a key part of our point of view because
From my point of view I love Bitcoin as much as any other coin but from the point of view I have made more profit from other Alta Coins than Bitcoin, I favor Alta Coin more, despite the high risk.This doesn't mean you should invest in other altcoins instead of Bitcoin, that's your own personal matter and your perspective.

It goes further then being just an investment when you are maximalist. Price doesn't matter really, because being a maximalist often means that you lose all objectivity and instead of seeing any problems in the tech that you are fan of, you project that by focusing on problems of other coins. Which isn't really productive.

I see it as simliar to hero worship phase in a childhood development, and it might as well could be. Maximalists need something they can always rely on and never question if their "champion" (coin), is doing ok or not. Because it can only be doing ok. There are no faults, or downsides in it. Until they finally admit that they were scammed, and then they need a new champion to worship.

I find that a large majority of people who dislike Bitcoin maximalism are people who got into Bitcoin for example, after 2017. It seems to be people that have a low amount of Bitcoin, maybe less than one Bitcoin & they try to convince themselves that shitcoins are good & will moon. It seems part of human psychology, a monkey brain situation that 1,000,000,000 random shitcoin is better than the $ equivalent in Bitcoin. Kinda like 100 nuts are better than 5 nuts even if the 100 nuts are rotting & the 5 nuts are ripe & healthy. Obviously we are all perfectly within our rights to buy what we want but just an observation of mine that the most vocal anti maximalism guys are low coiners. I have some shitcoins but very low amount. The very vast majority of my net worth is in Bitcoin. Everything else is a gamble in my opinion.
