Secretly we all know this bullmarket in crypto is not going to last.

Some day.. it could be next week, it could be next month, maybe even next year, but this bubble is going to pop. There are just too much currencies, tokens and ICO's out there. The real underlying value underneath is just non-existent in some cases. Zero. A lot of crypto's will go down in flames. 🔥 The good thing is that ones the dust settles down there will be survivors. Strong survivors. They will arise from the ashes. It all boils down to use cases. There is room for a just few players per use case. Let's dive in and find out which ones are likely to survive the hype and stay around long term.
