I think the start of the year will bring more issues, and a continuation of the rough ride we have been experiencing, but development, new dapps and token solutions will continue to progress.

I think we will reach a big part of the smt vision, but without steemit inc or Ned, thanks to people like @fulltimegeek and others.

The price might still go down short term, but we're breaking $25 some time next year:)
