Good points, people are constantly looking right now for the next rocket to the top 10 - 20.

Something like raiblocks I could see how it would be interesting in certain aspects because it seemed to grab the attention of the people who were tired of the BTC/BCH conflict (in my opinion).

The only thing that I can really say about Vechain (because it is outside my circle of competence) is that not everything needs a blockchain, just like not everything needs to be 3Dprinted. Something like this is probably where Vechain will get some most of the attention and a few years down the line(5-10) some company will actually implement it.

On a side note, what is stopping any company from taking the code from GitHub and using it internally, and testing and implementing it without actually using whatever the original crypto was?

"Thanks for taking out all the nasty bugs, we'll take it from here!"

With something like bitcoin, I see it not working because there is the risk no one will accept the new alt, but with something like Vechain tha is not as in need of general support?

(Not that any of that will actually mean anything while the bubble is still building).
