Very interesting post made by @BigGuy recently on behalf of VPA in their subforum.
It has predictions for 2019 from scientists, Industry Leaders, Advocates and more

So lets have a look at those predictions for 2019 
Regulation is likely to be a biggie, both here and in the US. Gottlieb's rumblings might turn into online or flavour bans across the pond. I assume our DoH will get the regs finalised in 2019. I don't know what those will entail but I'll predict that everybody will announce the apocalypse when it is released. Then six months later, we'll all have adapted and life goes on unchanged. People will accept the regs or will find ways to skirt them. Pretty much like Gauteng toll roads or Eskom load shedding, come to think of it. It changes our lives but it's not the apocalypse.
I predict there will be more movement in nicotine development. By year end, we'll have the choice of traditional nic, nic salts and something else. Although what that something else will be is anybody's guess. I'm guessing it might be a middle ground that is higher potency/less throat hit than traditional nic but can also be vaped safely at higher wattages than nic salts?
There will be more movement towards closed systems and less interoperability between different brands. It's the capitalist way. Every tech company tries to lock you into their ecosystem (Apple, Microsoft, Samsung, Nintendo, etc). Until now, it's really only been JUUL and the nascent pod market in vaping. But it's a trend that will increase.
The one-shot market will continue to grow but it will be a case of the rich getting richer and the poor dropping out. So there will be some market rationalisation even if overall sales increase. This, too, is the capitalist way.
There will be more lawsuits against vaping manufacturers. But only the big ones who can afford payouts. Again - capitalism. We'll also see the first use of the term "big vaping" by the media. JUUL are already getting into that zone.
I might finally get around to dropping a recipe. No promises but you never know, it could happen.
I think @RichJB won 2019. You are pretty much spot on
He's got less than 3 weeks left for that last one. I know he got close at one stage.
@RichJB was involved in the comp against the aussies - so technically he has some stuff out this year.... progress...lol
Baby steps.
A new Reload DL RTA. *fingers crossed emoji*
