Is adopting RISC-V now will provide an early adoption advantage in the future?

Yes, provided it takes off like ARM does currently. On one hand the work being done on ARM right now is helping displace the x86-64 monoculture, on the other hand it might leave no niche for RISC-V to fill.

Place your bets wisely.

RISC-V has the "no royalties to Arm Ltd" niche locked up at least.

ARM helps RISC-V a huge amount. A lot of the software porting for RISC-V is much, much easier because of the effort ARM has already pulled in. The same goes for other things like ARM Platform.

RISC-V already has lots of niches and its a open standard. Ill be fine.

I feel like RISC-V is already successful in low end niches.
