What do you guys think are the real risks of cryptocurrencies and are there any ways of overcoming them? I've attached a good article below that covers a lot of the solutions to what people consider problematic at the moment, and it essentially says most of the risks are down to the user and not the technology (i.e. lack of education). Am interested to hear your opinions.

P.S. I am heavily involved in crypto, just keeping an open mind

One should remember about the 51% attack risks. As we understand now, this is possible enough to be always kept in mind. I still don't understand how to avoid it if we are talking about altcoins... This looks very serious.

Already there is a solution that allow to avoid 51% attack. Read about Komodo project. Also several cryptocurrency project implements that protection. Here are several of they SUQA, HUSH, etc.
