I think 2017-18 were the years of ICO's. I think that eventually most of those shitcoins will fall by the wayside and disappear from the cryptospace. There's over 2000 coins right now... and the first thing I look at before buying any is, do they fill a need? Some fill a perceived need, but not a real one.

One reason I'm high on XLM, VET and EOS ia that they all fill blank spots in the cryptosphere. Eventually someone will come along and do it better like EOS did to ETH, but for the next year or so, I like the 3 I mentioned.
