I remember reading predictions that the crypto space would be at $40 Billion by 2020.
Well, welcome to 2020 in 2017.
This morning the crypto space surpassed 40 Billion and more interestingly the Altcoin share of that surpassed 40%
The alts are beginning to hold their own against Bitcoin and claim their space in the limelight.
This bodes well for alts and not so well for bitcoin maximalists.
Bitcoin is expensive and slow, by comparison to the new kids on the block.
Its time it stopped being the main fiat on-ramp and took up its rightful place as the "gold" or "store of value" of the crypto space.
Its time to move aside to let the young bucks do the whole currency thing.
