Achieving something like dynamic dispatch OUTSIDE of the class
And if you don't want to put a virtual function or have a base class, etc. check YOMM, which was recently mentioned in r/cpp.

Announcing YOMM2 v1.3.0
I have a visitor themed example. I will update it to implement the visitor solution as well, for easier comparison.

Documenting nested class templates, and static members, in the cppreference style
I am publishing and documenting some of the internals of my YOMM2 library. I adopted the same style as cppreference.com. My library uses two constructs nested inside a class. cppreference documents template like this and their members like this. However, I use two constructs that are, AFAICT, not used in the standard library, so there is nothing for me to ape.

implementing multiple dispatch in C++ using existential type
I don't know much of type theory, i'm just saying that i don't see when this could be useful in real life. On the other hand, multimethods such as what the Julia language has or, in C++, yomm2, sounds much more useful, as you can have two object *a, *b and calling f(a, b) will dispatch on the concrete type of all virtual arguments.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Loki and Yomm2 you can also consider the following projects:
Boost - Super-project for modularized Boost
