Changes to the WCA:
-Kilominx is added as an event on July 1, 2017
-4x4 and 5x5 Blindfolded Average records are added
-WCA accounts actually do something (lol yes don't correct me I know I'm exaggerating)
Cube changes:
-No one cares about new 3x3s anymore, even Chris Tran is out of ideas to improve upon cubes
-Rubik's brand makes an actual speedcube unlike their "revolutionary" stiff, ball-core, blocky garbage "speedcube", but as mentioned previously no one cares
-Moyu Clock hits the market. It has phenomenal corner cutting.
-7x7s are expected to corner-cut 45 degrees and reverse-cut at least 2 cubies to be considered usable.
-President Trump implements a tariff on all cube imports from China. Massive amounts of cubers protest in the streets across the US. Millions sign a petition for this to be changed so that their plastic toys cost $15 instead of $20.
-QiYi comes out with the Kipa, a foot cube tested and approved by Jakub Kipa. Feliks Zemdegs gets it, and after realizing that it is a foot cube, decides to use it for normal solving at Worlds 2019 and gets a 5.84 WR average in the finals.

3x3: Feliks will start using more and more FreeFOP until he uses FreeFOP in about 90% of his solves and 3x3 won't so much improvement (6.2x average) but by 2022 Feliks will get a sub 5.5 official average. Lucas will decide to become CN with would inhibit improvement for a while but will start to improve rapidly after fully transitioning. Lucas will go down to about 10th in the world but would make a comeback to 2nd in 2019. Feliks will also become a master of EO and use CTLSLL in about 50% of his solves without even using ZZ. ZZ-CT will gain popularity while Roux will lose popularity. About 10% of cubes will use some sort of SSC witch will be the main reason Roux will lose popularity. The cubicle.us will make a cube company superior to MoYu/Qiyi and moyu will make mostly collector cubes and qiyi will make mostly budget cubes. A top of the line 3x3 will cost around 25$

Damn, 9 beaten already. With a few more closing in.
New prediction: all of my (2015) predictions are gonna look as funny in 2020 as the 2009 ones do now.

Ooh, I'm excited to see this one!
In 2020, multiblinders will push the limits of fundamental logic.

Pyra single is slower than Skewb atm too. So it's not too outlandish.

No.
My only prediction is that 3x3 ao 5 will be sub 5.5. Edit: Jay will get a random 3.8 and his reaction will be spectacular.

@DanielLin I like that you put names on those predictions, but 3x3 sub 3? and mega sub 30? let alone skewb 0.53 (7 move minimum)? some of these are just unrealistic...

Mega sub30 is one of the more realistic predictions imo, given the UWR is 30 something.

Large Competitions will routinely have over a thousand people attend, 4 day competitions will also become a thing.
around a dozen people will be globally sub 7 on 3x3.
A mass produced Examinx and 17x17 will be out.
Some of the fastest cubers will get paid to go to competitions and there will be some cubing mentors.
I'll still be slow

3x3 average will surely be sub 6.
Stop picking me for 3x3 single. Roux = good for averages. Not singles. And i'll probably be done with cubing by 2020.
Oh yeah, i have 1 more prediction. 2x2 average will be 1.37 by someone from Europe.

No, it's like Justin says, entered results will not be able to be changed, so when Marcin, Mark, Kaijun, or Shivam get a 52/53, the score-card-input-people will make an irreversible typo and my prediction will come true.
E: and Kian will be the one to get the 4.15 in comp
