I'm going to chip in my 2 cents worth here...

Last year I went through 100's of ICO's assessing them for viability. There were lots of fun and quirky offerings that were trying to launch based on some novel idea like replacing securities exchanges, simplifying supply lines and similar.

They were all well and good, but I was looking for a coin that had the best chance of replacing cash\card payments.

From a technical perspective (asuming everything gets delivered), Avesta should be miles ahead of everything else in this regard.

- Exchange listing by the end of the year.
- Debit card by the end of the year.
- 10s block time
- Extremely low transaction fees
- A bunch of other stuff like smart contracts, multi currency walet, invoicing, accounting, etc.

Asuming it all gets delivered (the dev team are doing a cracking job so far!) that's a great combination.

No one knows whats going to happen in the future, based based on what we have seen so far this project looks like a good bet.

If you haven't started mining yet it's not to late to come and join us and get on board, just don't leave it much longer.
