I am personally quite new to the cryptocurrency world, only three months or so, but I've realised that there are huge problems with the technology. As much as I wish widespread adoption would occur soon, it is likely mainstream adoption will only occur 5-10 years later. Because of this, the initial surge of energy in ICOs are starting to wane as instant profits seem less likely. I think more projects are going to experience this trough of disappointment before the technology breaks into the public arena. This said, it is definitely exciting to be following this technology!
