Agreed. Some community-centric coins can and I believe will be big in the long term. I can't understand what's so great about Ethereum, particularly the PoW version. It sucks for any and all practical purposes. Bitcoin may become digital gold, that is, an asset used for hedging purposes.
Someone like Cedric Dahl is totally ignorant about the technological potential of various types of coins. Most crypto-investors are stupid lemmings who go after whatever coin has market acceptance. I have serious doubts as to whether that approach as any long-term future. In the end, those coins that have practical utility will win.
