I mean without at least a few of them there would be a severe lack of memes and amusing scams to laugh at, where would we get our entertainment then?

This. Monero is superior to BTC.

That's akin to saying that only one operating system is useful and the rest are useless.

Competition drives innovation.

Aka the "i am too deeply invested in this and i need competitors to fail for my personal gains"-mentality or in this case "for me to loose less money"

A lot of other cryptocurrencies are superior to bitcoin tech-wise and speed-wise, the only one up bitcoin has is that it wasting a couple million kilowatts of power calculating nonces to secure the network.

But this dominance metric is meaningless

Why you think so?

1

Because it doesn't account for market depth market depth is as important, if not more important, than spot price

Doesn't it tell you that when bitcoin is just moving sideways and those alts are falling that the market depth is not so big? Look at ETH when 1 ico started to dump their coins...

You can't really infer one from the other. Yes I would agree that lower price volatility typically happens in deeper markets, but you need a metric other than price to infer something about market depth.

Not significant but not meaningless.
