Great piece. Mass adoption of crypto will only happen through the use of blockchains in a valuable way. Projects like Steemit, Verge or Golem have totally different applications. Mass adoption of Golem means something totally different than mass adoption of Steemit. Each project has a potential userbase with a certain maximum size. If the whole scientific world for instance would use Golem to do heavy calculation, but nobody else is using Golem to pay for groceries etc., I would say Golem has reached mass adoption, but crypto in general has not necessarily reached it...
