Keep in mind some of these articles are from a year ago. It is interesting to see how they have held up. One thing I feel is an almost guarantee is that a large majority of altcoins, possibly bitcoin included, will flop. They say don't keep all of your eggs in one basket. I believe this is very true in this situation.

I worry about bitcoin because of the scale ability. It is getting very slow to process transactions. Hopefully they will fork it or something at some point. One possibility i heard was that bitcoin may end up being used for larger transactions where an altcoin, something like Eth, will be used for the daily transactions of the future.

What are your predictions and thoughts?
