According to the CSV data available from http://gs.statcounter.com/browser-version-market-share new Firefox versions tend to dominate just 1-2 months after release. https://imgur.com/a/xzvAU4t

Firefox 52 may be around for a while - it's the last LTS before extensions were broken by Quantum, and it's also the last release that runs on XP and Vista.
It seems that ff esr60 will be the only esr in august: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/
That's a minimum, but I haven't heard any noise from Mozilla about pushing it any further. Either way I'm sure some third party will pick it up and it will live forever. The only question is the % of people who switch.
As you can see in the graph, it's hovering around 0.5% of all browsers and ~10% of FF usage.
