Tim Draper of Draper Associates and venture capitalist says that by testing upgrades, altcoins will ultimately help Bitcoin become better.
Draper was interviewed on CNBC Squawk Box, Monday. said It will also include “many other cryptocurrencies,” Bitcoins will grow over time as a result of the (BTC) dominance.
“Competition is good for the world, but as a percentage of all cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin, with the first boom, they had a 40% market share, with the next boom, they had 50% market share, and now the market share is running around 61 to 62%,” He said.
Add that to your list over time. “the dominant supplier builds the strongest network,” Developers are now programming the “dominant supplier.”
Microsoft is the Bitcoin for Web2
Draper explained that a similar scenario occurred with Microsoft because the majority of developers built on its platform when they first began. Some apps were made elsewhere, and then ported.
Microsoft, the company behind the Windows operating system, is one of world’s top technology giants. taking Over 71% market share.
“Well, the same thing is happening now with Bitcoin. All of these smaller cryptocurrencies are experimenting and doing interesting things and all of the great engineers are porting those to Bitcoin and so there is a gravitational pull toward Bitcoin,” He said.
“There are other currencies that will come up as flashes in the pan but I think overall, we’re in a major trend toward Bitcoin.”
Electric Capital’s data currently presents a very different picture.

“You’re only hedge against that kind of government spending is Bitcoin, unless you want to hold gold, which is like holding onto shells. It’s like being prehistoric in your thinking about the economy,” Draper said.
“Bitcoin is your alternative that allows you to deal with the major changes that are happening in government policies over time.”
