I'm honestly starting to believe that Bitcoin might not be the horse to back. Hear me out, Bitcoin is always going to be the scapegoat - The banks hate Cryptocurrency and so do the governments at this current stage. Bitcoin always bears the brunt of this criticism/hate. When was the last time you heard them trying to prove how bad Litecoin is or other currencies? That's not forgetting all the other issues with Bitcoin such as the transfer speeds etc. I think Bitcoin is going to be kinda like a test currency eventually, one that others look to and improve upon which is already happening now to be honest.

Whilst I will continue to invest in Bitcoin at the moment I'm also paying huge attention to the new coins coming out all the time, ones that have fixed the issues that have plagued bitcoin of late. Think of it like Apple/Steve Jobs - they didn't really invent anything but they certainly took on and improved upon many existing technologies and made them a global success - Starting with the mouse right up to the iPad and Apple Watch.

Just my two cents.
