You make such an excellent point here, @castbythecoast, on the subject of adoption. I totally agree. This is why I look at the true utility, which is really what will drive adoption. That's why I still like Ethereum, Stellar and NEO, with many eyes also on EOS, because of the fact that Dan also created bitshares and Steemit, which has proven to have such utility value, even despite still many aspects that fall short of expectations. I've got my eye on Stellar too, given one of their largest partners, IBM, has said that the central banks looking to create their own crypto currencies will most likely do them on Stellar. Of course, I'd like to see them decentralize more once the market is there. There are many others too with good utility, but the bulk have so far to still go in that area and if they don't make sufficient progress in a certain amount of time, they will get abandoned, especially once the others start to shine more. I believe the next few years will bring more to the market and many will fall by the way side, because of real lack of operational utility.

I was pondering last night just how this market and the world as a whole may look like in 8 years from now at the end of this supposed astrological period of time. A friend mentioned to me in private this article was a little like Sci-Fi and I thought how so much of life could be viewed like that too. Imagine if we were to go back 10 years ago how the whole thought of crypto would have seen to us then. It's both very exciting and mind boggling, to say the least, just how this whole thing will play out in the coming years.
