I want to know how Bitcoin came into existence and where it will be headed in the coming future. Please share your perspectives. :)

In short, Satoshi Nakamoto had sex with the banking system, and then, after nine months, the bitcoin was born.

If you want to read about it in more details, I would recommend the books of Andreas M. Antonopoulos. By the way, you can find a free version of Mastering Bitcoin book in his github repo: https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook


Unfortunately, I doubt there are Nostradamuses here.

Bitcointalk community is necessary for only technical questions, or ones which are subject to personal opinions.
Inquiries like these;
can easily be answered with a google search or a forum search.
As for Global adoption should be in the future of the Bitcoin network. And the blockchain technology would be explored more in the future as more upstarts spring up.

I think the last evolution is be like Visa or Alipay that being used for all people around the world.

Well, IMO it's going to happen but in very long time because as we know that some country forbid crypto existence because of it's label as " criminal Money "

As far as I remember before Bitcoin was created, there were digital currencies that were similar to it and the prevalence of these digital coins was restricted enough to be used in games. Satoshi may have inspired it and created. My only idea about the future is that Bitcoin is currently a major innovation in the field of economics for many of us.

Yes, very easy to read what's the history of bitcoin. Even wiki has one - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_bitcoin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_bitcoin)
And you can read a lot more. Just use google. We are in the era that every question has corresponding answer.  ;)

the idea for a distributed cryptocurrency goes back to the late 90s cypherpunks mailing lists, particularly wei dai and his project b-money: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Wei_Dai#b-money

bitcoin wasn't the first iteration of cryptocurrency; it was just the first successful one. there were several failed projects that came before it.

some important milestones from its early history: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Category:History

as for the future.........i'd say there are a primarily two possibilities: mass adoption or fading away into obscurity. which path bitcoin takes is still undetermined, hence why people are so polarized about it's future. they either think it's the future or they think it's a passing fad like beanie babies or tulips.
