As far as I know ETN promotes mass adoption...
Electroneum offers to mine the token by playing mobile games. In a certain way it contributes to mass adoption, because of making it easier. Yet this project sort of stuck, as mining is happening too slow and this not many people are interested in that. Moreover, they still have some technical issues from time to time.
I think that what will truly bring cryptocurrencies onto the new usage level is the upcoming Telegram platform and token. If it will be easy to use then this will be the first experience of using cryptos for many people out there. I think we need more project like that, which are going to implement blockchain into something people already love and understand.

I'm looking to invest in coins/ICOs that aim to bring institutional money and retail money in masses. 95% of the coins on Coinmarketcap will not be here in five years. oviously projects with great, established tech will thrive first. I think the the projects that aim to bring the masses to accepting crypto will also be the first to do well.

Currently I'm considering SALT, Polymath, Genesis Vision, BlockEx, Fortuna, and FIC Network.

Short-term I think Polymath is most interesting. Whereas ethereum launched the dApp coin revolution, Polymath will lead the Securities token revolution. By making it easy for non technical issuers to launch a token that is complaint with regulations, they only not only incentivize the community to build more blockchain projects, but also makes it safer for retail investors to invest through a one-time KYC process.

Genesis Vision is another one that I'm really bullish on. Technical analysis and day-trading is rare among the average person in crypto. GVT allows retail investors to let managers (experts), ranked according to their trading skill, invest and do the trading for them. A managed portfolio takes out the guess work and helps those average investors who are too bored with hodling and too scared to trade actively. All this in a simple, easy-to-use working broker-like app.

FIC Network is an interesting ICO I'm eyeing. It's built on stellar(XLM), they have a working product currently used by a few clients and they are creating an all-in-one fixed income market for traditional markets and cryptocurrencies. Loans, corporate bonds, securitization, credit default swaps, future options, expected cash flows, you name it these guys are trying to implement in a decentralized manner. Its pretty ambitious but could be huge for adoption if they can achieve network mass, which they aim to do mainly through institutions. Public sale starts in a few days iirc.

I love these 3 projects. They seem to be very complementary in the way they approach mass adoption for finance 3.0

Bitcoin proposition is "be your own bank", allowing you to hold your keys and to remove 3rd parties like bank.

The natural evolution is "be your own financial institution": allowing you to use or create financial products using the blockchain technology.


POLY + GVT + FIC is the holy trinity for blockchain fintech of the future.

I do have a special preference for FIC: the team looks like they know what they are doing here, their platform seems ready.
Everybody in traditional finance I spoked too loved the concept.

I think projects who successfully merge traditional finance with crypto are going to be the real winners. That's why I invested in Qurrex ($QRX) it's a Stock Market and Cryptocurrency exchange, aiming to be a one-stop shop bringing Stocks and Crypto to one place, with fiat and crypto pairs.

FIC Network is an interesting project too, I like that I am seeing more of it, in terms of adoption FIC are doing something completely new to Cryptocurrency. You explain their goals very well, another key point that really hit it home with me was what it means for average investors. Bringing a lending market to Crypto, giving us the ability to loan and gain interest on our holdings seems like a necessary step forward. I'm very excited for both of these projects

There's plenty of ICOs that already have working products, if that's what you're asking. Steemit currently has the most value of any network with the most transactional volume of any project out there according to http://blocktivity.info/.
there is no useful product from Steem! they have a centralized platform which encourages people to spam and get paid to do it. if Stemit was decentralized form of Reddit and worked purely on blockchain technology then it could have been a good product but it is not! it is a centralized website which happens to pay you in a token.

and by the way having larger number of transactions alone doesn't make it "more valuable"
not to mention that the real value according to https://steemdata.com/charts is 325 TX in last 24 hour not 1.5 million and the highest amount is 3200 tx in 24 hour! never mind this part, it seems like the date is old on that source!

Physical world examples include OriginTrail, TE-Food, or CyberMiles that are providing real-world merchants a decentralized service.
i am not familiar with any of these so you have to help me out here.
where are the merchants that are accepting these? where can i see these merchants? what can i buy from them? where can i get these tokens from? and why would i want to choose these tokens over fiat or bitcoin for paying these merchants?

Bitcoin was built on 30+ years of work and still had major bugs after 4 years.
bitcoin has never had any major bugs to this day, there were small bugs that were found in first year and solved easily and fast but nothing major.
and it is not 30+ years. 35 year ago the idea of cryptocurrency started but the real work was done in 2009 by Satoshi and with bitcoin. the time between 1983 and 2009 there were no significant work done!

There was an ICO some time ago, Electroneum, promising mass adoption for the mobile user. Basicly what they said were that they would come up with a mobile payment solution that would be both easy for the merchant and the buyer. They are still working hard, and partering with alot of good parties, but getting alot of users is really really hard....

I personally like PARKGENE project, is a convenient and secure way to find parking, connect drivers, individuals and businesses. PARKGENE’s decentralized technology  will  supply  new  parking  spots  in  already crowded  cities,  which  now  remain  unutilized,  by  enabling  not  only  peer-to-peer but also the seamless integration of all existing parking technology. P2P  parking  can  double  available  spots  in  cities,  making  it  faster  to  find  parking
and ten times cheaper, compared to professional parking operators. The GENE token is used as a means of payment, to pay for parking. Drivers use the GENE token to pay parking spot owners. In the Parkgene, organic demand of GENE token is works for future of the project, so no worries about dump the price of GENE token. That's why I personally like Parkgene.. But ICO is ended, you can purchase GENE token at BTC-Alpha, GetBTC, Bitpaction..

the real question is mass adoption of what and by whom?

the focus of altcoins is on certain type of people and that is speculators and nobody else. and that is why they are pump and dumps and will never reach anything in real world. the speculators are only interested in making an investment which gives them some return on their money. in other words they are interested in money not in any of these projects!
and why would they be interested in a project that has no real world application? you named ICOs, can you show us some old ICOs that are currently doing something they promised for real in the real world?

One thing to also keep in mind, however, is that tech doesn't come quick. Ari Paul had an interesting quote on twitter that sums it up nicely.

People consistently and massively underestimate how long it takes to engineer new uses in cryptocurrency.  Bitcoin was built on 30+ years of work and still had major bugs after 4 years.  Lightning Network took 3 years from draft paper to barebones deployment.

Developers and investors need to recognize how long and hard it is to develop something new (most roadmaps are currently comically optimistic), but we also shouldn't turn pessimistic purely due to impatience.  It's happening....it just takes time.

The fact that a project isn't live yet, or a use case isn't implemented yet, is not evidence that it never will be.  Keep up the good work devs.

I think by mass adoptiom he means the projects that will link cryptos to traditional assets and economy and while doing that bringing the traditional money to crypto resulting in mass adoption, the projects he has listed are more of tokenization and fund management platforms that can bring the normal investor to crypto, so the TS is quite right these projects can bring loads of money from traditional markets to crypto and hence mass adoption.

I really like the way you laid things out.  Great work!

In my opinion, I think Polymath and FIC both have a great future.  The potential markets for both projects are insanely high.  I'm already holding a bit of Poly in my port and I'm thinking of picking up some FIC in the ICO.  It starts this Monday.
