Many other actors and blockchains were born and have appeared on the market in the last year!
Yes, plenty of ERC20 tokens have emerged and tons of different projects, but only a few are actually bringing something new. Many of the currently hyped projects have a long way before they will actually have something proper to show, which is a stage Stratis was in last year, this year it is becoming a different beast, latest releases (Full node and Full node GUI) are one step from production ready and the rest of the products will be presented in Q2 at least as an alpha version. ICO platform is waiting, Breeze wallet with Tumblebit is in private beta for some time now, so it should be ready before end of Q2 as the latest roadmap suggests. All is coming in place for Stratis to become one of the leading providers of blockchain solutions and simplicity of usage will probably help them achieve even greater adoption than the biggest optimists are expecting. Their first verified ICO ended a private sale successfully and are aiming to continue with a public sale in May. The reason for delay is SEC compliance.
