People ask this every year.  How long is a piece of string?  It's all speculation until we actually see it.

Personally, I think that while things are heading in the right direction, there's still a fair way to go before we're there.  Many still argue we're quite early in the adoption curve.  

In terms of "blockchain" adoption, however, that's largely unimportant.  Any companies adopting (or perhaps co-opting is more accurate) blockchain are just building walled-gardens for the cost-saving benefits.  They're not actually creating something for users to see any benefits.

lol. I never knew people ask this every year. My blockchain wallet is about a year old and i have done quite a lot of transactions with it. I cant just wait for when i can actually go shopping and pay with my coin. Thanks for sharing.

I think you're a bit confused here Bitcoins and Blockchain going mainstream are two different things. People may adapt to blockchain ans yet not adopt bitcoins. So it's important to understand the difference here. It's true many companies are going after blockchain but not bitcoins but I feel this'll change sooner people and countries soon will go after bitcoins it's only a matter of time now.

Ok thanks for the insight.

HODLing is an art, not just a word...
it is called mainstream "adoption" and like any other adoption, it will also take time. it is not something that can occur over night so you can wake up one morning and see bitcoin has hit "mainstream".
the movement started about 2 years ago and it has been ongoing ever since. in fact bitcoin is slowly being adopted everywhere. mostly silently by the smart people with smart money.

Yes, of course. even now people are more inclined to use other coins than bitcoins.

For the first quarter I think this isn't a year for crypto. But it's too early to make conclusion, let's see what happens for the next few months

It is true that 2018 is a mainstream year, with a very long decline in bitcoin prices and but bitcoin already has a high price and I think it will increase again by the end of this year.

Yeah Making Crypo go mainstream may just be they way to keep it alive.

Block chain technology has gradually become mainstream.
However, different countries have different attitudes towards the cryptocurrency market. Some countries are more optimistic and open.

The truth is that the anticipation for crypto to go mainstream increases as time goes on. In fact there are skeptis who would have nothing to do with crypto unless it goes mainstream. Is 2018 that year when blockchain crypto goes mainstream?
