> I think if it survives, the crypto community is in for a reckoning much like 2000. Bitcoin will be the Yahoo (a brand that survives, but does not create new value, and stagnates) and all the alt-coins are the Pets.com etc of the era. Poof, gone, vanished.

Even as a crypto enthusiast, I agree with this general sentiment. (My 2¢ is Ethereum will emerge as the Amazon.)
