The money, right now, slowly trickles to the other coins. As those altcoins mature new platforms will become available to buy them with fiat. As that happens the ties to btc become weaker. Each coin will begin to represent its function and move on its own (but there will always be a connect). However, shouldn't the overall goal be bye bye fiat? Getting paid in crypto solves that in one shot....but then a lot of people would have to take crypto
....then again. that's all opinion :)

.... GREAT POST!
