According to Pierre Rochard, altcoins<\/a> primarily derive their value from specific use cases, such as smart contracts for Ethereum or cross-border transfers for XRP<\/a>. This “utility” logic stands in stark contrast to the solid monetary fundamentals<\/strong> of Bitcoin<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n For Rochard, Bitcoin’s resilience as a “crypto<\/a>-monetary standard”<\/strong> will always outperform the temporary successes of any altcoin tied to a particular use case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The “flippening”<\/strong> myth where an altcoin surpasses Bitcoin in market capitalization has regularly resurfaced in recent years. But Rochard dismisses it outright:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even when screenshots occasionally show XRP<\/a> ahead of Bitcoin, these are merely speculative calculations based on “fully diluted” market capitalization, accounting for all potential tokens. This is a misleading metric<\/strong> that fails to reflect market reality<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
