But the truth is that altcoins also have a place, and many of them very unable to succeed.
Lee also conducted a survey, in which he urged followers to identify themselves as Bitcoin-extremist, Bitcoin-maximalist, maximalist or Nominee. According to the results of the survey gathered 28.4 thousand votes, and almost 50 percent of users identify themselves to the Bitcoin maximalists.
