it's because bitcoin is a dead coin like everyone on /biz/ is saying. this can be confirmed for two reasons:
(1) ALL ANONS on /biz/ are honest, post high-quality and well-thought out content, tell the truth, and want the best for everyone else
(2) IT IS A WELL KNOWN FACT that bitcoin is a scam, a dinosaur, yesterday's news, unused, centralized, and most importantly fundamentally broken. This can be observed on the blockchain and exchanges across the world.
(3) BITCOIN IS USELESS and this is why it is falling in rank on coinmarketcap, and other more promising and useful altcoins (that are far more technically advanced and desirable) are gaining ground and soon will overtake bitcoin.
(4) ALTCOINS are not shitcoins!!! They are legitimate competition to bitcoin - everything other than bitcoin is a threat to bitcoin - ultimately cryptocurrencies cannot live side by side - an altcoin will overtake bitcoin one day!!!

any of the people who originally believed in bitcoin for what it actually stood for (and not just price goes up xb) have moved on to monero. The problem is that most of these individuals truly believe in privacy, they use a vpn, tor, tails, have javascript turned off, etc meaning they are unable to post on 4chan (you can't actually be truly anonymous on this site). This is why you don't see a lot of monero threads here yet. Biz normies will start waking up to the boomer crypto coin in about a year or so.

You see it was funny because when you posted "You posted four reasons" reading that out loud sounds the same as "You posted for reasons". I said two reasons but then subverted expectation by actually posting four reasons and when you pointed that out I said "for reasons" in my response "Yes I did post for reasons hahahaha get it" instead of "four reasons". The "hahahaha" implied that I had found humor in my self reflection of the post. The "get it" invited the reader to observe the exchange between posts. However, there is further comical value in this, when you further deconstruct the text. This is that I essentially said "I posted it for a reason" which has negative connotations of mischievous behavior. It ties the ensemble of text together and thus the post is funny.

Not decentralized there's a owner who's still alive and if the government want they can just kidnapp him and tell him to mess up the code of monero, while bitcoin can not be changed because satoshi nakamoto is missing out.
Bitcoin still have som good advantage on monero and I believe with lighning network it will be trully private. But still monero seems a good option for now on privacy and bitcoin for holding as gold, offline storage etc.

I don't even know what bitcoin does to make it the most expensive alt but it's a lot of money. All I know is crypto is different computer programs and you buy shares of them and own part of the program, kind of like stocks give you a percentage of everything a company has and rights to future earnings or losses as represented by a percentage change in share price. I don't really understand that stuff either but I know computer programs do everything that's important now, stock companies really don't aside from being useful. But as much as I like coke it's just a drink, Coca-Cola doesn't own drinks, just a specific one. There can only be one computer program that is that computer program. I don't know why crypto market cap is so small but that is what fundamental analysis is. You find some thousands of times less in price than its worth and buy that to get gains. /biz/is always talking about chainlink so I bought 50k. In hindsight it was a pretty good idea and it just keeps going up more. If people aren't talking about btc then it must not do very much. I had a couple back when we were talking about it but then I bought more chainlink. I love this place because just by watching what smart people do you get some of the same benefits of being smart. I never would have imagined being my age and having a higher networth than my parents and their parents put together. It's crazy to think about. And considering how much the shock market is worth when they are just companies has we thinking the crypto market is going to blow it away because computer programs are so much more important nowadays. I think it's likely I will be retired in a few years.

While Bitcoin is fundamentally solid wrt decentralization, I wanna argue that the 2017 fees and clogged mempool has shown that blockchain itself is fundamentally incapable of scaling globally.

A 2nd layer is the only correct answer imo, but so far, nothing seems as much of a "eureka lightbulb 100% correct answer" as a 2nd layer as Satoshi's white paper was for decentralized money. Lightning seems the closest, but not close enough.

Bitcoin is the crypto that has really "made it". Its has existed since January 3rd 2009. They've tried to outlaw it, attack it, shut it down, steal its brand, fork it, but it just keeps going. An has been going for a long time. Its proven itself as protocol GOLD.

"It doesn't support smart contracts" Not everyone wants to use their wealth in smart contracts. Or even move it around often. They want to lock up their crypto-wealth in something secure. These days you can WRAP bitcoin in ETH and use it on the ether blockchain anyway. So if you still wanted to needed to use it for that purpose you can. Even without trading it off. Development is still underway and features can be added. But the security and not opening up any vulnerabilities for attack is the number one priority and that slows development down.

What your not getting is that Bitcoin is so established that putting money into Bitcoin compared to other stuff is like putting money into a savings account, whereas buying alts is like buying stocks.
