Previously I have written my opinion concerning bitcoin in Positive attitude of bitcoin
I have the same positive attitude about altcoins, seriously, contrary to popular opinion that 90% of altcoin is scam, that they are not necessary, I've been thinking about how many there are "noname" or not so popular software in IT sphere?
I´m sure even we do our best, we could not name even 3% of total amount of software... There are a lot of highly specialized b2b soft, about which you did not hear. The same tendency could be with altcoins (it is clear that not here and now, but within 20 years...)
It is clear that we need to choose authoritative teams like binance, those who have an active github profile. Although easy money are leaving the market, new obstacles appear in the crypto industry for all its members, but also it comes the understanding that the crypto won´t die and everyone will be dealing with it. Everyone understands it, from devs with hamsters to whales with giant corporations (note how many centralized IT businesses invested in blockchain). And this niche is not filled yet, there is enough space for everyone, the margin is stunning, fun and dynamic - what else do we need for happiness?
Also think about the lately tremendous news: tweeter, facebook, istagram, Google, Yandex and others prohibit crypto advertising - but the world does not work this way.... if people are interested in something or they need to talk somewhere, it is clear that will appear corresponding resources (yeah it´s possible that we will see crypto-analogies of facebook,twitter and etc.) And we will receive more ICO's, tokens, rat races and possibilities to make some profit.....but......they will never replace bitcoin! And as you have understood, if the crypto is ignored by the old platforms, then obviously there will be new platforms, that will get a big piece of pie. And as you can guess, facebook is almost the state offices that supply a bunch of data about citizens. And if everyone runs to other platforms, then money will run after them, because the data is the most valuable thing in the world, and money is just a piece of paper and an intermediate link...............................Data is a new gold
I'm almost sure that now all the data bases with KYC are actively buying up, the forums are being monitored, a lot of information is being sucked out of social networks and so on. Anonymity is again in trend. Today people are buying everything to get deep into crypto, so think 5 times before you will show somewhere your passport data, because right here and right now, the nameplates are hung over the btc-eth-addresses. I won´t be surprised if in next 5 years some "Edward Snowden" will public something like that.
As a result, the world changes, and old paradigms will be buried, crypto becomes a common thing and a niche that gives a job, like YouTube or Instagram. It's nice to realize that while everyone is running in panic through the streets and trying to understand what's going on, you're looking at it all from the side drinking your cup of coffee.
