Right now, it seems that the crypto world and block chain technology has a lot of potential, but is the crypto world here to stay? Not just bitcoins per se, but other virtual currencies as well like altcoins or litecoins and such. Do you think we will still hear about and use cryptocurrencies for the next, say 5-10 years?
Definitely yes. At least this does not apply to all coins on the market, but some "quality" projects will remain here for a long time. I say this because many large funds and investors are beginning to invest in this market. And they do not invest for a month or two, they invest for many years to come. Therefore, I am sure that the crypto-currencies will live and develop successfully.
