Hey Terry, I am just seven months in cryptos with me starting to post on Steemit. In that short time I have seen how the crypto market moves and it looks to me like a push and pull of investing phases and selling phases. We are just seeing the next pull before the next push.
The technology behind it is so revolutionary that it can change the world - particularly Steem as it offers an easy access into the cryptosphere without any investment required. Bitcoin has the strongest name and many others amazing usecases.
That all being said I think there is no way that cryptos in general will fail. Quite the contrary: We will see a fully tokenized world where your refrigerator, your trash and your toilet will generate money because there is value in saving energy, seperating garbage and generating bio energy with human poop. ;)
These coins will not be worth $10.000 (assuming the Dollar still exists in 5-10 years) but even if they are just worth 1 cent they will still be valuable and add up.
2018 will be the year of years for this revolution!
It is wonderful to hear from you! I appreciate your work very much and I'm glad to have you come over and visit my site. Thank you.
I have to agree with you what you saying about a connected world. I just got back from covering CES out in Las Vegas for the papers where I write. There are a lot of gadgets and Home Appliances that are being connected via the net and The Internet of Things.
Thank you for coming by and I look forward to having you visit more in the future
