Why is the entire crypto ecosystem still being shackled by this ancient dinosaur?

The tech behind BTC is outdated. It's like the Nokia of phones in mid-2000s. There's already alt-phones developed that far outstrip Nokia in all aspects.

Yet Nokia is still commanding a great share of the market.

Why?

How do we kill BTC once and for all?
Co-existence is not an option.

Because BTC is a big old clumsily stomping and loudly farting, burping and roaring dinosaur. You can see and hear it from two miles away and what it offers is dependability and predictability which makes it ideal as value storage for boomers. BTC will soon be a stablecoin bouncing up and down between 100K and 150K. It's digital boomer gold which will eventually be hedged to make it even less risky.

The name is worth its price. You're right that its outdated, but if you ask anyone about crypto the first thing they think of is bitcoin. It cemented as being the crypto in cryptocurrency, something not easily changed, especially with Elon and the rest of the elite backing this shit.

The fact that it's "outdated" is irrelevant. No other coin has been attacked as much as Bitcoin, by politicians, governments, whales, hackers etc. and that proven robustness and security in the real world is worth far more than faster tx times or lower fees.

Works like this, retard

you can trade crypto for native currency, btc or eth. You can also trade btc and eth for native currency. If the cost of a crypto drops or gains against one, or the other, trading bots ran by smarter people than you arbitrate the differences until they balance out.

Most of the rest of the crypto market is tied to BTC/ETH because most of the rest of the crypto market can trade for fiat/btc/eth. If, you say, started adding exchanges where people could buy their crypto with nano instead of BTC/ETH/USDT, so like NANO/GRT, NANO/LINK, etc, you would begin to see nano have a dictative effect on the market as a whole.
