Its interesting to see that by in large, the significant changes that have been happening in Bitcoin over the past few weeks and in the coming months, has almost not registered on the main stream media. This is a clear indication on how early we are in the crypto space becoming mainstream.
Those involved in Crypto have been highly excited, however outside of this small world, the rest have not noticed. I think this goes well for Bitcoin and the ALt-Coins. By the time the public starts getting interested, the fundamental changes to BitCoin will be in place and the scaling issues will be in a better space.
Further, I think that both Bitcoins will endure and prosper especially when the general public starts getting interested.
I expect Bitcoin to be 10 to 20 times current values within the next two years.
