I'm not very concerned about the 99% of these startups/cryptocurrencies that will inevitably fail. It's a given that most of them will not be successful.
It would be foolish, however, to assume that there won't be a handful of these startups that go on to actually change the world in a big way. Bitcoin, arguably, is already quite far along in that regard.
I think it's foolish to assume anything right now, one way or the other. If you desire a particular outcome, the best thing you could do right now would be to figure out how you can help make it so.
