What is exciting about RaiBlocks is not that it is fast and scalable, but mostly that the transaction fees are zero. Zero fees is not the same as low fees, especially when it comes to microtransactions or adoption in countries with weak currencies and incompetent governments. There needs to be adoption beyond that though. This would be the coin I could see people rallying behind, if the tech works and it can mature. I think the dump will not be from the hype train dying off, but if or when vulnerabilities of this unproven tech are taken advantage of.

I think the hype for Vertcoin was genuine at the time (unlike that of current moronic Verge shills). It is/was the people's coins. Raiblocks also feels fair and the community support behind it also feels genuine. I hope it succeeds.
