In fairness, cryptocurrencies have become more like gold than pennies. I recently proposed someone pay me in Bitcoin for services rendered, and it immediately seemed like a bad idea. PayPal or Venmo is still where it's at, for better or worse. As far as "impending," well... Maybe if the lightning network proposal happens. Maybe. The other currencies do matter, but Bitcoin remains the granddaddy and has immense inertia. It's hard enough for normal people to acquire Bitcoin, let alone any of the others.
