Most coins are in development for several years now
can you give some examples. and tell us why it took several "years" to develop these coins? i understand that developing a real coin that is supposed to be good doesn't happen overnight and it takes time but i can not see why it would take several years! that is much longer than needed.
Coins are here for a real world usage
things you say are our wishes. i just hope this is not like other thousand coins which said the same thing and ended up being empty promises!
Some people predicted it still needs 5-15 years for mass adoption. But that´s bullshit. Another 5-10 years of speculating isn´t goin to happen, otherwise it would mean the whole crypto-thing is just a big empty bubble.
i disagree. it takes time, specially for an altcoin. people all around the world are not going to wake up one morning saying "I've got to get me some altcoin".
bitcoin, which is the biggest one, has been around for 8 years and it is not yet reached mass adoption. bitcoin has made the way for adoption smooth but it still will take time and that altcoin needs to be so damn good to be adopted for "real world usage".
* looking forward to your examples
1: Ehh what? Even BTC is still in development

But here are some examples: NEM (2014), ETH (ok, needs more time), Sia, GAME + Mobilego, Bitcrystal (release few days ago), IOTA this year,...
2: All with real world usage. e.g NEM with banks , IOTA with IOT companies,...
3: Yeah, it needs time. But it´s almost 10 years now since the birth of BTC! And mass adoption depends on 2 fundamental things: 1: tested and easy to use product (make a software easy to use is a matter of months) and 2: tv and media. I remember when first mobile came up and 90% laughed and said what a bullshit. Few months later 70% and 2 years later 0,1%.
Few months ago crypto was demonized by banks and media. Now it´s "accepted" and soon it will pushed like hell. Sheeps will follow immediately
