Very interesting, however there could be some black swans waiting in the midst. The intentional sabotage of the blockchain by some rather unsavory characters has proven to be a serious problem.

Also the implosion of a company such as Tether, and subsequently Bitfinex, would cause a SERIOUS collapse in the market. They are developing a site called Ethfinex which will run on the Ethereum network... The US govt is investigating them meanwhile and they have yet to provide a full audit of their reserve funds. If you ask me this is the biggest skeleton in the closet right now.
