How about some renewed interest in Russia? I have no idea how large their influence would be on a global scale, but I do think it's possible that we'll see more adoption there.
Putin recently called for regulations of crypto, but without prohibiting them.

I am not sure, but I think people overestimate Russia, I do agree however that India and maybe even china could be a catalyst.
Also, thinking about it, all these government "ICOs" by Venezuela are a very good sign I think. As any exchange can list the currency and allow people to convert these worthless tokens to better ones say, Bitcoin. Thus opening the gate for the whole population to adopt this new technology.
Thinking that many governments won't realise this when launching these new "E-Currencies".
