Topic: Will such a view be wrong in 2018? (Read 155 times)

Medicine and AI that's related to crypto or just a mere thing about it alone? These projects has been existing since the millennium age has started. Optimistic in a way that medicines would be not like herbs anymore and it's upgraded to capsules and sort of AI which has been in news lately during 2017.

You mentioned medicine and AI. Is this a thread for exciting new technologies other than blockchain/crypto?    

That's a very interesting topic. Elon Musk could be one of the pioneers considered on the forefront of new and exciting tech. Between Space X, Solar City, Tesla Motors and his other ventures he's done exciting work there.

Awhile ago, there was a documentary on ViceTV where viruses like rabies were genetically engineered to be harmless. It turns out some viruses like rabies target and kill cancer cells. Injecting a cancer positive patient with a virus which was rendered "harmless" was thought to be a promising cancer treatment. Unfortunately, I think all of the patients who had their cancer treated and put into remission in the documentary later died. But still, the results before that point looked very good, if I remember right.

I've seen the US military propose bringing back battleship sized vessels for the US navy. They've also proposed robotic, radio controlled, drone submarines armed with nuclear missiles, if I'm remembering right. Then the US military also wants to utilize lasers and railguns. I guess those might be considered some of the "extraordinary" new projects in development you're referring to?

CRISPR and gene editing could be the most exciting thing I've seen in medicine for awhile.

I still think AI is overrated.

Someone reply to my post, we can get a good convo going.  

There would be lots of potential projects that we would able to encounter this year knowing that technology is on fast pace which means any sector would potential enhance even more not only on medical or on AI but we should still consider some areas too. I'm expecting that I would see some project wont really be common unlike on what we are seeing today. We are all hoping for the same thing specially on investors side which we do really seek up for good long term project not only on benefiting our bankroll but also benefit humankind as well.

In terms of markets, these new technologies will push the world to be more modern. We may see a lot of development in third and second world countries in terms of technological advancement. With that comes a new push for cyrpto as well. People will start developing using blockchain technologies, but that can mean that more altcoins start popping up too. Even though each altcoin may have a specialized use, we'll be seeing something quite similar to the dot com boom. Tons of coins but only a few survive -- not all start up can be a Microsoft or an Apple. So with that, there may be more competition for Bitcoin, but it may last long due to it's current highest market cap standing.

I think that the market has already grown very large(670B$ makret cap) and people expects it to grow even further this year.

I believe that many people are going to br disappointed because the market cap's growth potential is not as high as it was at the beginning of the year.

2018 is going to be the real test of bitcoin, if it is a bubble then it is going to be the year when it's explode.

Will you make it a little more clear, please? What projects are you talking about? Of course we know that Science and Technology is progressing year by year and we always expect even more extraordinary inventions to be introduced, but i'm not sure if what are the projects which are you saying can make 2018 an extraordinary year.

I think 2018 will be an extraordinary, medical and AI would be nice, because there are many projects already in development, such projects do you optimistic? To talk about the idea!
