They say that the "Ethereum Machine" is much slower than a mobile phone, so I guess that will need to change first! Just imagine what will happen with thousands of smart contracts are being invoked on the network at the same time, who knows what will happen!?
I think you will be deadly wrong. It will get higher than anybody could imagine
I think so too, once Ethereum adopts some good scaling solutions next year the sky is the limit really and as time goes by more and more apps are being developped for it. I saw somewhere saying there are now 50-100k people programming on Solidity.
