What has to happen will happen. Remember the quote (wrongly attributed to Gandhi): "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win". Cryptocurrencies are now between the "then they laugh at you" and the "then they fight you" stage.
In the next 2 or 3 years there will be more and more noise about cryptos. And yes, a lot of the disadvantages of Bitcoin itself are going to be shown, and other Cryptocurrencies are going to displace it. There will always be people naysaying Cryptocurrencies, but at the end, they will be massively adopted.
