If you would stop 1000 random people in Paris, London or any other major European city, and ask them a few questions about crypto;
700 out of 1000 would have heard about Bitcoin 350 could tell that it is some kind of internet/virtual/crypto currency 75 would now that it has something to do with blockchain 25 could give you a reasonable, somewhat accurate explanation of what blockchain is 15 could name at least two other cryptocurrencies (or tokens) No one would have heard about Chainlink
Go outside big cities and you can drop 30% off from any of those numbers.
Early movers will come in next bull run, and it will take BTC to 100k. The Golden Era will begin early next decade and it will take BTC to 1 million.
agreed, but we need alot of money to get to those prices.......

not even 2.5% ever touched crypto crypto didnt even outgrown its infancy innovators obviously
Samuel Rivera
Speak to me user, it eases my mind
Dylan Ramirez
Not as much as many think. Total market cap means nothing, it has nothing to do with amount of money coming in.
A lot of money is now flowing into soon-to-be-dead projects in hope of getting x 100 (that is the price innovators often pay), but new money will be mostly projected to already bigger ones, those that will qualify to next gen regulated exchanges (like Blockchain.io).
Leo Watson
This post would have been right if posted in early 2017. You are literally a laggard OP.
Michael Walker
Stop trolling. Almost all the posters here are larping and don't even own 1 btc but talk like they know the market and future. We are early adopters, in 18 years there will be a new generation trying to get rich from our bags
Noah Hill
>No one would have heard about Chainlink
I hope it keeps that way.

hey boomer, this is not the stock market but crypto. Things here move a bit faster slowpoke. your 18 years for boomer stocks to recover will take only 18 months in crypto.
Luis Young
It's true that the adoption rates are low as fuck, especially for the newer cryptos (like LINK) but the problem is we might stay in the innovator/early adopter phase forever. That's the real fear. There just isn't much motivation for the average normie to get into crypto except the price pump and now that that's gone why would they get involved?
Oliver Phillips
seriously we didn't even figured out what the fuck to do with crypto. an other speculative commodity is not a fucking innovation!
the adoption of cryptocurrency didn't even start yet. when you have actual real world use case for it (aside form the fucking exchanges) then we can talk about adoption.
Alexander Bell
>There just isn't much motivation for the average normie to get into crypto except the price pump exactly there is no use case worthy of the effort.
but you can already see what happens when a countries finances go to shit first greece then cyprus, and now venezuela. they show the potential of crypto as an escape vehicle already. but day to day where the economy is fine there is not much pressure to use it. it's awkward costly and inconvenient and overly technical yet.
maybe the next worldwide economic crisis: the collapse of all asset markets and then maybe some hyperinflation once the flock sold all their assets and currencies were printed to hell to shake people out of their wealth will be a wake up call.
or not, who knows. i don't see the future. i see potential, and shittons of problems.

uuuhhhmmmmm use it for the same thing fiat money is used atm? ofc not yet since it is not fast and cheap enough rigth now. however it will replace fiat money the same way skype replaced other ways of telephony.
Ayden White
I agree, OP. No one has heard about BTC yet, my dog for example is still confused when I mention it to him.
Logan Harris
>use it for the same thing fiat money is used atm? you can't simple as that. there is not a point in my life i could use crypto as money. i don't get paid in crypto it's not an option, i can't spend it in a shop or a restaurant.
Kayden Mitchell
once we have cost-efficient and fast cryptos you wills ee them being offered in shops and restaurants alongside fiat and gradually fiat disappearing. we dont ahve those fast and cheap cryptos yet sadly. but we should ahve them in the future.
Jeremiah Diaz
exactly so basically innovation. there is a possibility it will never take off, but any retard spouting shit about late adoption is a fucking 40 iq niglet.
Charles Smith
Should I buy into the ICO or wait... I can just barely put enough eth to get that 5% bonus.
Josiah Thomas
I want to kill myself, every day.
Ryan Hall
>Should I buy into the ICO stupid fuck. do it if you wanna lose all your money.
Gabriel Parker
>Should I buy into the ICO that question could be universally answered with HELL NO! doesn't matter what you want to buy never buy the ico!
Tyler White
we dont have them? what is XRP then?
Jack Nelson
This. It took 30m of fresh fiat money to pump ripple marketcap by 10b recently. We'll reach 10T total marketcap much sooner than most people think.
Alexander Flores
Wrong. You are the final adopters of a technology nobody will ever use. You're not just late adopters, you're final adopters.
How can you call yourself at the beginning of the cycle when 10 years has already passed and litterly millions of people are millionaires/billionaires of this shit?
Colton Brooks
>30m of fresh fiat money This is not a small amount, most people don't even have an extra 100 bucks to invest.
Angel Allen
Most people will find a spare 100 bucks to invest when bitcoin soars back past 20k and they decide they don't want to be left in the dust like they were during the last bull. Not to mention most people will start investing far more than 100 bucks when ETFs come through and 401ks start including 1% crypto in their portfolios as a hedge.
Jace Cox
No. Pretty sure if my mom knows about bitcoin then everyone with a TV does.
Austin Brooks
there's even less of a distribution of people transacting in crypto compared to speculating well and truly innovators
David Diaz
Bought BTC under 1$ => Innovators
Bought BTC between 1$ and 30$ => Early adopters
Bought BTC between 30$ and 200$ => Early majority
Bought BTC between 200$ and 1000$ => Late majority
