Gonna be an interesting time ahead (new splits from BTC etc.)

A number of bitcoin copies already exist under different names with slight modifications. The there is those ICO's most of which are written from the ground up. For example PIVX is a fork of DASH with some slight modes, like another flavour of Linux.
Some on my watchlist:
https://status.im - mobile operating system with integrated blockchain
https://digibyte.co/about-digibyte - many things but secure encrypted communications with message that self destruct. GCHQ is just going to love them.
Populous: Invoice Finance on the Blockchain - essentially a people bank - very interesting.
https://www.elastic.pw - decentralised super computer - there is another, https://golem.network, but they've publicly stated no operation for some while. Elastic is also a programming language like C that allows you to write you're own models. Truly fascinating. In fact distributed computing on a global scale really does open doors."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
