You gave the answer yourself. Brand and popularity might change over time. But at the moment it is BTC. Just go to Google Trends and no other coin is that mainstream. The search volume for Bitcoin is 50% of 'iphone' which is massive itself.

Re other coins: There are just two which are scalable because of their semi-central nature (XRP, XLM) but they have to get there first which will take time. The other millions of coins are usually decentral (and slow) tech and often they are shaky not working or don't have any own blockchains while valued in the billions (eg EOS). And you should not forget the upcoming lightning network for BTC.

But why do I try to convince you, at the end of 2018 BTC is at 100K, you missed another opportunity and you come again here and tell us the same FUD.

I don't have strong opinions either way on this entire thread but I find the back and forth extremely entertaining (although the repetitive nature of both of your arguments I wish would be replaced by more creative replies at times). But I will point out that, at the end (almost the very end) of 2017, it's not even 20,000 -- BTC is at 13,000.

BTC just hit 10K a month ago and the mainstream end-of-2017-forecast through summer and fall 2017 was ~5k. Then 13K is a fine number (13x in 2017).
