I think the main reason for this is because there no excitement in the industry ago and an average investor does not see any reason why he should put money into any of them. I think the entire industry need to be overhaul before there can be any excitment again
Nothing has changed. Its just that we strive for adoption to which investors allow government to control their fears by these KYC, SEC regulations and ETF. Without these issues today, there may never have this fear. We tend to seek protection from scam so we look for ICO regulations and so forth. But maybe after all these are resolved, excitement will all come back and those old trusted coins will bounce up quickly.
