Yeah, the 2018 date apparently comes from Marvel's Runaways Season 1 4, when Alex is going through Geoffrey's office desk and finds and takes his gun. One can see a calendar in there saying 2018.

Ever since 'Homecoming' did that thing where it supposedly takes place 8 years after 'Avengers 1', the need for a concrete timeline has increased. Since the movies come first, there may be more movies to come out before they make a timeline while also taking the shows into consideration of when they take place.
