This is the year where all the money sloshing around drys up with increasing interest rates, and startups need to focus on being profitable from day one (or burn up the founders savings), rather than raising money from the market. That means different products get developed.

If this happens expect layoffs from tech companies that "doing well" but keeping their profits low.

During a record year of questionable ICO's (itself creating a vacuum for the non-questionable variety)?

You're definitely going against the wind with that bet.

ICOs are a different beast.
