Good points, but I can't help to think that the speed, infinite scalability and adaptability of the cryptos based on the Bitshares graphene platform I mentioned up above will be seen as a major step ahead and therefore bring forth a totally new realm, a second wave so to speak in the world of cryptographic currencies. When Bitcoin will come to a halt, as it did and will keep on doing more and more, it is those that will topple it over on the long run.

Namaste :)
