What does Future mean ?
Money profits ?

Or ?

Adoption ?
Isn't the point of the "coin" ..the intent?

If a currency is launched and after years it STILL not used as one..
And there seems to be no real tangible prospects it ever will be then what is the future about ?

You are all so utterly consumed and obsessed with profits.
You don't even see the point.

I agree with this. I'm well aware that most of these coins are total scams. They do **** all for the most part. Ridiculous value with zero real world use. Just another wannabe Bitcoin in a different colour/flavour. Or they take something which already exists and is working fine and say "Hey.. look... now it's DECENTRALISED! That's worth a BILLION dollar market cap, yeah?".

However... I do think a few coins will survive. Notably Monero, which is quickly becoming BTC's little brother on the dark net.
And there is some corporate justification for blockchain tech, as the Deloitte partnership with the Waves platform demonstrates. The smart contract stuff might be total bull****, but the token mechanic is very interesting. It will require regulation, but I don't think it's going away.
