I think this is still far from your imagination in 2018 which is the dark history of crypto currency as an example is ethereum, in 2019 ethereum created a new hardfork and it has not had a positive impact on ethereum prices now.
This shows us, that the price is not regulated by development of technology that accelerate demand, as it works on stable markets. Unfortunately, the price is still regulated by speculators and whales. Let's hope that people's awareness will increase and in 2019 and they will not react only to the price movements, but also to such events as Ethereum hardfork.
