Point taken.
As for altcoins it depends on how you want to use them. Litecoin has great potential for peer-to-peer usage, Ethereum by default is the only thing you can use on Ethereum backed DApps, and Iota is fascinating for internet-of-things usage. There are others that are similar to those.
I think Bitcoin is stuck in old technology that will eventually catch up with it. It has the market cap and the name but trying to use it for anything other that storing value these days is too expensive and slow.
