Bitcoin Forum

In 20 years, people will either be saying “Remember when you could buy bitcoin for only 3500?” or “Remember when everyone lost their minds and spent millions on useless internet money?”

One day cryptos might boom in such a way that basically everyone who didn't invest in them will become poor

  It is not like this I am sure price will rise bigger and no one wise gona lose because we invest for growing our money so it is our responsibility to have patience and hold until it rises, after 100 years I am sure price of bitcoin will be at sky high, don’t even think negative about it is the most promising investment ever, be positive and it is long time who knows maybe till then crypto will be the only currency all over the world.

It already happened imo. 2017, or the previous bull run already happened. Nobody even imagined that Bitcoin could go to $19k when it was less than $1.

So I believe we will see another run, especially after institution started to capitalize this opportunity to present their crypto product.

I'm confused. Your thread title says "100 or 1000 years from now", which are extremely different things.
Then you start your post by saying :


So, which time period are we even speculating about?
This doesn't belong in Trading Discussion, from what I can tell.

Long time will definitely make a change that is so great, by looking at things that exist then we can ensure a revolution will occur and that includes a financial system. My prediction is that crypto will become a major financial system in the future.

100 years and 1000 years? And then your original post is 20 years? I am confused. If 100 ~ 1000 years is what we are talking about. Then I think financial systems will really progress, maybe with a more powerful kind of bitcoin using quantum tech. 100 years is a huge number and of course 1000 though  ::)

If it’s 100 years from now, for sure I’m totally dead that time and enjoying my life in heaven.  :D

If it’s 20 years from now, well i’m living as a multi-millionaire that time because of cryptocurrency and I know the future will still be great even if we don’t reach that moment. Cryptocurrency will grow and we will notice this one every year.

People wouldn't have idea what fiat is as people will fully embrace the Blockchain technology for their daily transactions. Another thing, our human kind at that time could be able to travel at speed of light and be able to recycle its energy while travelling that will make them be able to reach another universe to finally find the life at habitable zone.

Discussing what will happen in the next 100 or 1000 years is just a wild imagination as it will be useless discussion because wont have the time to argue what we have predicted now LOL.
20 years to go is the most reasonable time frame to discuss. I dont even understand why this topic belongs to trading discussion, while we will only say some pure speculation on what will happen with bitcoin in the next 20 years.

That will be too far if you ask about 20 years, 100 years, 1000 years from now because we don't know if we are still alive or not. I never think about what will happen in the future, but I will do my best from day by day, so I can make a bright future especially to give something as my legacy. As the Beatles said, I am not a dreamer, but I am trying to make my future better than now.

100 years is already a lot of time, think about it we did went to moon 50 years ago and ever since those days (even though we didn't went back to moon because we didn't find anything valuable there) we have built a space station on space, literally a station where people live on space. Now we are moving towards going to mars and even colonize mars because it is a planet that could be turned to liveable one like earth.

Now think about what could happen economically in 100 years if thats what we have achieved in SPACE exploration in half that time. Of course many many things will change, I doubt even dollar/euro type fiat would exist in 100 years so bitcoin would probably be gone as well, something much better than both of them would exist. However, 1000 is beyond our even wildest imaginations so there is no chance we could ever hope to even dream what will happen in a thousand years.

I imagine that paper money will die out, everything's moving to digital and we already can pay with cards, so it's not really a stretch.
Crypto will likely become mainstream, down the line.

Oh my god you are thinking too much 100 yeard and 1000 years is very far and we are not know what's the cryptocurrency status because we are dead on that year. But our kids and generation can really answer that. But I think cryptocyrrency is still alive because I know many people will stop the dump once the market dump that's the cycle of the cryptocurrency after dumo they pump.

I am not at all bothered what would happen in 100 years or 1000 years from now. I am only concerned what would happen in one or two decades time. I believe in a decades time crypto would become main financial system in the world.

over thinking about the future of cryptocurrency is also giving the tension and there is some distraction with your one way so it will give the the pressure of getting quicker income for investment very short paragraph time I think ok it will not be right idea to think about so much longer for the future prediction.

I don't know what happened in next 100 years but it will be so much development in this world especially in the form of money made up easily with so many easy access by everyone in this world without any devices in their hand possibly the cryptocurrency be accepted by every single cities in the world is possible also.

Theres only two things that can happen on next 20 years time. No man can predict the future or foreseen the things on whats head.So making presumptions is still valid but
we cant say on what would happen either Bitcoin would still exist into those days or would just simply being replaced by other better altcoin or just simply entire crypto market
is already dead into those times.No one knows.

In 100 years’ time, I would not be alive to tell the story, and it’s way too long to even talk about 100 years, everything may have disappeared if the creator of the universe decided it time to wipe it off, so mate, lets dwell in the present for now and if we have to talk about the future of cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin which will always have a bright future, we can talk about a decade.

From 10 years’ time now, I know bitcoin would have eating deep into our financially institution and become a full part of our life, by that time, we would have completely be using it as a store value, so the 100 years you talked about would just be same way we have been using it and the whole world might have solely depend on it as the only second alternative to fiat.

We do not know if the earth will survive 100 years. So the only thing you could discuss is Cryptos? The only thing I can think about is that with the way illusions are created, it is possible that after some decades we will see everyone living life which will be either robotic or fake. Also people will have limited sources but a lot of money which will not be able to fill their hunger or desire. So I am thinking only that instead of about Cryptos. So try focus on today and use your money to invest right and to think straight.
 

In my opinion I think it's absolutely useless to waste your time thinking about what will happen 100 years from now since you know for sure you will be dead until then and it wouldn't matter for you anymore. Just focus on the present and hope that the future will be good for everyone,there is no point in overthinking this kind of things about what is going to happen with the world in the future.

It is certain that people do regret for not taking an action or step towards a certain thing in the future. They can also be happy for not plunging into the decision too in the future but in this instance, since bitcoin (I believe) will still be around, people who either reminisce when price was cheaper.

However, I think this topic is speculative and belongs to speculation section. Thank you.

People who didn't invest in them will become poor? Seriously? Crypto isn't the only industry where you can invest money on  you know. And yeah, early adopters usually get the bulk of profit but that still depends on their plan with their assets. And by the way, 1000 years from now we may not have anything we're having today, not even bitcoin.

It is welcome here in the forum and speculation is also a part of this forum, well if we talk about the post I must say it is so long time so till then I think we will be no more, but our generation will be able to live totally in digital era and then I am sure bitcoin will be so high and it will be become the only currency that will be highly acceptable all over the world, I can see that great era of digitals.

Speaking about 20 years, ELON MUSK would have probably set humans on Mars and guess what, having a cryptocurrency on Mars would be much fun after getting it colonized. If it did not happen in 20, it will surely happen in 100 or may be 1000 years but for now, it is better to focus on the market if you are here for making some money. And crypto is going to stay for long so if you are planning to hodl for 20 years, good luck.

The main question is whether you will still be alive in these years you have called, unless that of twenty years and who told you that people who don’t invest in cryptocurrency are poor people? There are lots of things that are far much better than cryptocurrency and even less risky and those who are into it are packing a lot of money daily.

So, don’t say that those who didn’t invest are going to poor. Even you yourself doesn’t know your future with crypto, there’ are people who invest in cryptocurrency but haven’t achieved anything from it and are even getting poorer.

Take it easy, everything will go up in the course of time, we just wait for that to happen, I don't like a little when speculating for a very long time, while we just stare in the next few years to realize everything you give is inappropriate .

Strongly disagree with that, not everyone will succeed in the crypto world because in other ways it can still be profitable, do not take such a view because it is very illogical, only a patient person might be able to realize wealth.

20 years, 100 years and 1.000 years, that's going to be 3 different timezones, with very different possibilities. Most of us still going to live in 20 years from now. I think most money will have gone digital in 20 years from now. Fiat will most likely still be there, but Bitcoins will have become a store of wealth for people with money.
100 years from now, I think the world will be lead by a small elite, and democracy, as we know it now, will have been abolished. 1.000 years from now, I think we will have been through several world wars, who knows what will be left after that.

It's hard to speculate but we could make our own predictions based on our own belief. As for me, cryptocurrency could go more just as it did before. Who would have thought that it could bloom that way in just a span of years? I'm sure that it could strike higher in the years to come.

in descriptive world the chances of predicting the next day will not be possible for everyone so predicting the next hundred years will not been possible at any point of time and we don't need to think about that this will be the way to get the prophet so you need to go with the flow is correct area.

In my country the average life span of a common man is around 60 years. By this time what's the need of analyzing the years that we won't exist until some form of magic happens. Maybe after years people gets moved to cryptocurrency usage in higher percentage as each and everything around us have got digitized by now. One thing I'm sure, people will be roaming all around for food, water and basic needs as agriculture is getting shrunk.

Hard to speculate the price for the next 100 years and I don’t want to bother myself thinking for that time since I know, it will be hard for me to enjoy the price at that moment since we are also getting older every year. I’m confident with this market that it will deliver a good prices, and a better technology because of this the price of the top coins will also follow, the next 20yrs will also be good.

I don't think that we have to think about that long I mean why would we bother we wouldn't live for that long anyway .
Let's just enjoy our life,our time don't overthink it you would only stress yourself about it.
But I think crypto would still be used at that time and I think that we would no longer use cash everything would be digital .

A century would be a lot different. I guess people will say "remember we use bitcoins and altcoins then?" because at that time i know someone will make another more automated mode of payment. Maybe a chip implanted on the hand or maybe some facial or fingerprint recignitions.

I think facial payment backup with a digital chip, in your phone, watch or whatever you carry with you, will be used as payment in stores. I also think that bitcoin price will be much higher than it is today, and will be used as a store of value in an inflated fiat world.

This question asked by OP is very important and with your last sentence that concludes as : "But I think crypto would still be used at that time and I think that we would no longer use cash everything would be digital .
", should guide us to our lives after death. That is to say, after we have laboured to invest and acquire some coins now, some of those coins would worth much dollars in the future, then we need to secure our addresses very well and passwords too.

It will be nice to disclose to a trusted third party too just Incase unforeseen circumstances happens.

Things will be definite until it is already in the past and the future is uncertain for nobody could tell what will happen. It could go either way, you will became poor because you never invest in crypto now or you go broke because you invest in a bubble bursting. The safe way for me is to adjust/adapt what the current situation bring and work our way around it.

It is same like if we have no guaranty that how much we would live but still we do work and earn money for our future and may be we die tomorrow, So same here in bitcoin, we have no guaranty that bitcoin will live long life, but now it is popular crypto currency and we rely on it that in future bitcoin will be given us huge profit. However bitcoin is successful coin that's why hopefully in future it will be.

In 100 or even 1000 years I will be gone but I am leaving a huge amount of bitcoins to give as inheritance to my family. Oh, what a relief that I have secured their future for many generations to come. How I wish it would come true.

It is naive to predict the future and foresee what can happen in 100 or even in 1000 years. Most of us (if not all) do not know what can happen to them tomorrow. We do depend on many things.

Why should wait for until 100 years and i think most of us will died before reach 100 years and if we talking about bitcoin or the price movement i think we don't have to wait until that year and possibly for next 10 years everybody will regretting their decissions why not buy bitcoin at present time because i'm sure on 2029 bitcoin price will higher than now

Even if I know that in 20 years the meteorite will collapse on the earth, and Bitcoin will disappear in 10 years, anyway, today I will invest in crypto. There are many reasons and one of them is the potential income that you can get here. While there is a chance it should be used.

Lol, I love of your approach of seeing this, and I don’t think it should be a wish any longer, it is already a done deal, bitcoin has come to stay and come few years’ time, even the government and banks will come running to the solution the cryptocurrency has brought to our financial institution, and in those years’ time, Bitcoin would have become a part and parcel of every living should on this earth.

So many people who are just selling off their coin now, I see them as people eating their future today, so to all ye investors out there, don’t eat your future today because of lack of patience, invest for the future of your children and care more about what tomorrow holds than you selfish ambition of now.

In order for people to invest in Bitcoin for the long term, they need to understand it first, which the far majority of the them unfortunately don't. For them it's just an interesting short term bet.

But then again, people are free to do whatever they want with their coins. I strongly believe that those who are selling right now to lock in 10-20% profits will end up buying back their coins at way higher levels.

I must admit though, I was tempted to sell some coins around $5300 to have some more fiat ready in case the price tanks, but didn't proceed because I do prefer to wait and transferred the coins to my cold wallets instead.

None of us here can't say what would happen 100 or 1000 years from now.
And what are you trying to emphasize to your topic here also? For me the important matter for now
is how to get profit in this business industry cryptocurrency. Just like what happen now in the price value of
bitcoin. It is so far so good even some of the altcoins too are pumping their prices in the market.

Even many of us still incorrectly predict the price of bitcoin within a few months ? lol how we predict crypto conditions or the state of the world in the next 1000 years, no one can imagine and predict it, its full of mystery

20 years, 100 years or even 1000 years. Cryptocurrency will be cryptos and will survive for longer than expected. And I think there will be more developments after so many years of survival. We had to invest bitcoin while the iron is hot. I mean, we should take advantage of the popularity and while the price is at the dip.

It depends on many factors to invest. in the investment field, even though we know it's a potential coin, we still can't buy it anymore. because we had a lot of losses before and we are in crisis. no one will be able to keep the mind to go on. therefore, there are many unsuccessful traders because their minds and strategies are not clear.

I accept the first part of the conversation that the price will move higher with more investment coming into bitcoin and with time we will reach a point where the price will be stable and it will take a long time, but that does not mean that the price would be a million dollars per coin and the rest of the people who invested in something else will end up in a loosing position, i am not sure what theory you are talking about, with zero investment the end result is null and not negative  :P.

100 years is a long time from now and by then a lot of things can and will happen that will change our prospective of things, i mean in the past of only a couple of months in 2017 bitcoin went from 6k to almost 20k and that made everyone in the world talking about it, and that least to not only the rise of bitcoin but also the rise of investment in the ICOs, and that draw the attention of many governments from who they were to strict towards regulating it and going as far as banning some crypto in their countries and other either accepted it into their society or just stayed neutral toward it, i mean a 100 years a go the world was still in the industrial era and we were still using steam powered machines, so a 100 years from now we could enter a new era where we don't even use money or who knows what sort of new technology will take over, but it is estimated that a 100 years from now all 21 million bitcoin will be mined and that will have an impact on it and how people look at, and i am sure that it will have an impact on the whole cryptocrrency overall if it still stands by then.

there is no need for the next 100 years of bitcoin predictions in 2019, there will be the emergence of a security token ecosystem, it is one way to consider the potential of security tokens, securities in the form of tokens, and token offering security by evaluating its predecessors, namely utility tokens and ICO, the economy of the token utility that most ICOs make uses the ERC-20, working as a means of incentives / rewards for customers. Utility tokens are not at all forms of equity in the underlying ICO project. Therefore, utility tokens in general have been considered as equity in the underlying ICO project, with token holders assuming the ICO project will run smoothly and ultimately will benefit them such as dividends .

There is only one question out of that two questions will be asked soon. There are no people know what will happen in the future but since we are already here, I will be biased on the positive one. This is also the same scenario with the Internet back way back '90s, a lot of people don't believe that internet will not work in the future but look, internet can be our necessity now.

Who people who sre born todat for sure already die after 100 years and even the market is very high we cannot feel. We cannot know what is possible value for the altcoins so we don't have any Ides for that but there id only two possible maybe crypto are very low or high.

First of all will the human nature will exist until that?

For sure the prices will increase huge from now but I don't think the current system will be good enough to handle the development we made after 1000 years with the current technology.

It is actually possible for BTC to become a million dollars in future which has been predicted by great analyst for future, bitcoin was once $1, which is not 5000, which means we have 5000x on it, imagine another 500x on it within the next 30 years, and bitcoin reaching that value would have also move other coins too higher in value, which means those who still invested in other coins too have still not lost.

It is possible for people who never paid attention to BTC now to regret even if they are engaged in other things that are fetching them money, but no matter what they invested in then, the profit can never be as much as what Bitcoin would give in some years’ time.

I think 20 years form now I can see a wild growth in bitcoin. What more with that 100 years to 1000 years. But, sorry for us we can't witness that growth but at least we witness the beginning of what they were to enjoy.

That is a mouthwatering offer, anything is possible in BTC, but it will really take time for Bitcoin to really react to such price, it would not have been too difficult, if the system was strictly take as a long term investment, or people are just in it for store value, at least we know then that every investor’s money put in will always have a positive effect on the price as quick as possible.

The only challenge is that the gradual slow growth will continue as people keep taking profit by selling some parts off and as people who have their money in it , takes part to settle their daily needs while new investors will be keeping it in balance.

I am a cryptocurrencies enthusiast and having trading for more than three years I can said that we should expect more good days to come and we are going to see more good price and development in cryptocurrencies market.  I think we can makes money by investing now that it very cheap.

In 100 years or 1000 years we are gone dead but crypto is still a mystery until then, cause the development of investment every 100 years there must be something new starting from gold silver to foreign currency oil and others. Still a mystery.

I don't think someone will still be alive to be able to tell that line since we are gonna die at that time. A millennium will be a different era and different time, do you think Bitcoin would still exist at that time? lol When i come to think about the future about 1000 years i would just laugh since we can't even witness the changes at that time. Let your grandchildren suffer the stress of speculating and thinking the same as you did. :P

We really cannot predict the future. Remember, the decentralized market always has a weakness that is without government control and the market will be difficult to achieve capitalization of hundreds of trillions of dollars. Anyway, let positive thoughts lead you.

Positive give us positive for the cryptocurrency. Your definitely right it's hard to predict what's the future things happen in the cryptocurrency.  Always be take care of the cryptocurrency and maybe the crypto will live long  and they have good value for each coin.

LOL. maybe we were dead at that time.  :D
the farthest thing I think about is the development of the blockchain that has been accepted by the community, and of course it has many benefits whether it's for technological development, and others. this has many benefits, even today. however, I think that the utilization is not 100% optimal.

life does not predict anything but I think if in 100 years everything will be better, everything will grow and everyone in the world knows bitcoin.
I hope in the future bitcoin will cost over $ 20000 and all other types of alts will grow like bitcoins

To be honest and very much frank,  there is no person in the world who xan really predict what will happen in the near future. I mean i can give you gurantee that no once can predict upto the mark also.
And who knows what would have been happened in the future? Maybe more Bitcoins be created by satoshis or it just become banned? Or maybe it can be any country's national currency. 😂
And as far the price prediction,  i will just stay away from that part and eagerly waiting for other members to post about this.

Lol! I think this line is an exaggeration   :D.
What if they have not invested simply because they have investments other than bitcoin and they just decided not to be involved in cryptocurrency? Though your speculation can also be true but I don’t think everyone who did not invest will become poor and what if everyone did, will there be enough to make everyone millionaire or billionaire in the whole world?

It is a hypothetical question, we don't need to bother what would happen in 100 or 1000 years time. We should only be concerned
what would happen in 10 to 30 years time. I firmly believe there wouldn't be any cryptocurrency in 100 years now on. It would be replaced by
a new and more advanced currency.

There's no real assumptions as we don't know what life awaits us tomorrow, that's the nearest future ahead of us so I don't bothered to worry much, all I can say is I'll be happy if i'll be seeing another tomorrow of my life and this industry still moving forward, worrying will just stress you up and nothing will be certain, only left is speculations and everybody's opinions according to what they predict but all above that, there's no one who can say what will be the situations after some years.

Hard to speculate but the potentials that cryptocurrency can bring is unparalleled compared to any discoveries made into our payment structure. The introduction of the blockchain technology not only revolutionzed on privacy and transactions but also gave rise to various opportunities to people around the globe.

The problem with cryptocurrencies revolve around its legal status and acceptance to most countries. With its positive effects also bring its negative effects especially when considering its anonymity factor on its transactions. Some individuals use it for illicit means which created a stigma among people. But overall, I believe that the positive merits overwhelmingly outweighs all its negative implications.

Right, at this moment, we can not predict a price of cryptos in this much less many years from now, one thing i can believe is decentrallize token will soon be regulated by government  and give us higher chane to use cryptos safer and more profitable to entire crypto world, cryptos is too young so i guess the government will need more time to give use new methods to keep our investment safer and more useful in many years from now.

A nice open ending you got there. At first when I read those phrases of the two possible endings of bitcoin, I struck my head because I was overthinking that hard. Even though I overthought just now, I'm more certain that bitcoin will be our future and I'm very optimistic on what I'm doing.

I'm so sorry I think your topic has been in the wrong place, especially when you write it 100 to the next 1000 years but what you mentioned is only the next 20 years. This is clearly not a discussion of trade. sorry if I'm wrong but that's what I see ;D

I agree with you, there I no purpose of bothering what will happen 100 years from now since all the users of this forum will probably be long dead by then. Even if we think about what's going to happen 10 years from now it's impossible to predict something the way technology is evolving right now.

First of all, change our subject title. You said in your post 20 years but in the title its 100 or 1000 years. Which is which dude??

Anyway, I invested in Bitcoin because I believe that it will go high again like what happened in 2017 where the price went up by almost 2000%. Nobody expected that to happen and its the same now. Nobody can say when the next bull run will happen but one thing is for sure. It will really happen but nobody knows when it will be.

People are starting to embrace digital currencies already and we are in the digital era right now. Lets use also digital currency too. Many establishments are starting to accept cryptocurrencies as another way of payment. Regulation and adoptions must be done in order for the price of Bitcoin to rise again.

I think and for sure 100 years from now bitcoin will successfully reach the goal as new form of money  and i hope before I die bitcoin will use in the worldwide as new form of money replace fiat.
Talking botcoin 1000 year from now is very unsubstantial to discuss  it because people lives i too short we didn't seen what will happen for that long year for bitcoin future.

Well if we are going to look at it's historical past, bitcoin is a good hold for many years. Just look at what happen to early adopters, in 2017 then made a fortune buy just holding bitcoins in the last 5-7 years.

So there's a big possibility that bitcoin could be worth in the next 100 years or so. Remember that bitcoin is scarce and once all the coins are almost mine, there will be more demand that will push the price even further.

Same here. I am passionate about my coins and that the future is going to be more bullish. This is a small rise like we had one big rise in 2017. Market works in a cycle. Recessions and revivals will   keep on repeating thereby giving value to cryptocurrency. Another reason why I like crypto is because of the prospect of profit that will be there to the crypto lovers as the circle expands.

Can you please do something very important for me, where you have edit button if you can create any, please click on it, go to places where you have bitcoin on your post, delete it and replace it with altcoins. You should be talking about altcoins and not bitcoin.

I can see you don’t have any bitcoin, would you permit me to introduce BTC to you. BTC started about 10 years ago or so, and since then, it has passed through the worst situation that is more than we are seeing now, so many criticism, and many more, but I believe you can see how strong it stood out against all odds, there is nothing BTC is passing through now that is new to it, it will always be very reliable and more reliable one than it is now.

Bitcoin come 5 years’ time will not be what you are talking about now, it would have virtually touched one third of the world’s population and experience community growth by almost 10x.

over time the growth of digital currencies will be increasingly recognized by the public, most likely the value will increase in the next 20 years. the next generation will feel this modern technology, and of course they will crave to buy cryptocurrency at a low price because in the future cryptocurrency value is very valuable.
for people who can't invest in cryptocurrency, they will definitely regret it later.

Surely crypto currency is really good for us, it has bright future, growth is so fast in crypto currency, 100 and 1000 years is so long time till then I am sure bitcoin will be crypto currency will be at top, even now I can see crypto currency is getting better day by day, so those who are not investing now a day will regret being late.

The future is unpredictable, so, we all cannot predict into the future of cryptocurrency. What will happen in next minute, we cannot say; talkless of that of 100 and 1000 years to come, which is certainly a long journey into the future.  Let us stay positive and we will be reaping the result of our positivity, in cryptocurrency before the 100 and 1000 years comes.

what will happen 100 years from now?? is that I have died ...
I think this is too far to predict because 100 years to come is very far away, no matter how we will not feel it. and it will not have any effect on us who live today.
so it will be better if the time span is not too far away, for example 10 to 20 years ahead, so that we who discuss it may still be able to feel the prediction.

100 years is too far away and we no longer exist in this world. I think this will be a new generation with many different predictions and maybe this market has entered another stage of growth. Anyway, this is a very interesting topic so we can predict the market in the future because I believe that this market will still exist until then and all major countries will accept together cryptocurrency at a certain time makes people always optimistic when investing in this market

In coming 100 years we will surely see one more financial crisis and that will be the time when cryptocurrency will boom and it can also become main steam of currency. So the price can be unimaginable. This can happen in next 10 or 20 years also as we dont have to wait fr 100 years.

True, there is no point in predicting what will happen in the next 100 years because we will not be available at that time to see whether our predictions are correct or not. 10 or 20 years may be a good time span to use. IMO, in the next 10 years the world has been running digitally and most payment systems will run digitally as well and maybe crypto will become one of the payment instruments that will be used.

Every market will come to an end and open another era for humanity. Maybe cryptocurrency will change a lot in payment as well as apply to our daily life but to be considered the official currency, approval of major countries is needed and I think this will be very unlikely . However, based on what is happening, there will certainly be a big change affecting the global economy in 50 years and you should wait until that period.

How can I sure that you will life 100 years from now on? Don't expact to much with your investment, take a profit of you get profit and still holding if you get loss. Indeed, bitcoin has made a new history for this world, before there is no one will know that bitcoin can reach a high price. This is technological development and maybe in a few years a head we will see something that similar with bitcoin but many people will interest to it even some government. So, if you intend to spend money for bitcoin do it now and don't leave it, you have to check the price movement day by day.

That's a funny, nonse question as hell to me. How old is Google, even the internet? Don't compare crypto to fiat money. It is basically a software.

Technology keeps on advancing, but life is very inevitable and it can be hard to tell what may happen in 100 years or so in the field of crypto. Prediction is tricky, it's hard to be right and easy to be wrong. As for me, I don't really think much about what might happen in the future of crypto, it's not going to give me a peace of mind. What I'm up to is on what we all can contribute at present times that could be beneficial for future generation and a legacy that we will leave behind. It takes strong support, and unity for the market to progress and to keep its excellency. Things take time, be patient, but I'm hopeful that in the long run, many people will become well-educated and well aware of what this technology is all about and realize its real essence.

In 100 hundred year time, I believe that blockchain technology and cryptocurrency would have been 100% adopted and would have already solved many problems that would ache led to the financial crisis you talked about; we might not even see such financial crisis in existence.

One of the benefit of cryptocurrency is not to serve as payment processor alone, majority of us have already used it to solve on or two of our financial crisis that would have been left unresolved without cryptocurrency, and as each and every one of us keeps doing this, it will reduce the impact financial crisis will have on the economy in the future, till its uniformly disappears.

We are all die who born this year and last few decades so what ever happens to the cryptocurrency we cannof know that. That is right better for us to predict what happens after few decades because it is really good for us because maybe for sure will still alive after some decades but we need to take care cryptocurrency for the next generation.

I think even bitcoin won't be around in 100 years and definitely not 1000 years. I am super excited about space exploration right now and we have already managed to send multiple rovers to mars so far and I am sure soon we will manage to send people too, if you calculate it properly you do not even have to send someone with full on force of pushing, you can just calculate exactly how much the push/pull atmospheres and worlds have and that way you can leave a spaceship somewhere with zero power and it will slowly go to mars.

You can of course make it faster by pushing it harder with fuel but it will take up too much fuel and is totally unnecessary. Maybe alternative energy will have a say in that regard. If we go to space and manage to build a colony in mars and than other places than crypto will become less useful.

I think that has happened in almost every century long period. The financial crisis in 2008, back in the oil price shock period and in the end of Second World War in 1930. So yeah you can expect a financial crisis in the next 100 years as well. And yes there is possibility of great surge in the market value of cryptocurrency and I think that would be the time when crypto will spread more to places where it is not recognized.

It is a high risk to hold bitcoin for many years you don't know that exactly gonna happends once it drops and your just invest huge money from it. Lot of people selling on there coins for now to avoid lossing money in market situation and condition.

It was a very wrong statement, even when there was no cryptocurrency there were already rich people and poor people. and it does not mean that then there is a system like this, it provides a fooling perspective. In fact, we also see those who invest in large numbers in the end regret it because do some mistakes, like buy when the price is on top.

Probably we all died and the apocalypse will come at that time. 100 or even 1000 years are somehow too far for us to predict, even though someone will say the future will have anything including technology and shit yet the proof not enough justified.

Oh! Would love the idea of crypto booming, but to such extent is just too much and too scary 😓 What about those who are handicap, those who know nothing or never heard of crypto! There will be war if such thing should occur 😵

I think this is really an exaggeration because for sure the government won't allow this to happen.Bitcoin holders will definitely become wealthy people but for those who are non holders of bitcoin,then they will just stay on their own economic status.For sure they also have their own sources of income.

I am sure that everyone on this forum should be above 16 years, which automatically implies that majority of us will not be alive to see what bitcoin would become in 100 years, but at least, it will give us joy to know even in our death that we have laid a foundation down for our generations, will the generation then look back and appreciate us for what we have done down for them through investment?

We don’t have to work for ourselves alone and think whatever we need in crypto should be limited to like 20 years maximum, we need to think beyond our own picket alone and see how we can use it to solve problems of a lifetime generation, except we believe that crypto will not be alive to see the 100 years which I do not believe.

I would not even think so far to 100 years,,, 10 years is impossible to predict. As smart as all the guys were behind Bitcoin, I am sure none of them could predict that BTC would be here today, that crypto would be so big and so controversial. They tried new money many times before BTC and none of them took off the way BTC did.

I am not even sure Bitcoin will be around in 100 years. Maybe it becomes something else, maybe something better replaces it?

 I dont even think that lot of people can hold their bitcoin in 100 years because once bitcoin get bigger for its price they sell it immediately for to win and not to loss for their funds.

If we take into account that it is almost impossible for anyone to predict what the price is going to do during the next day then it is quite problematic to try to predict what it is going to happen in such a long time frame, however since I really believe that cryptocurrencies are going to become successful since countries around the world seem incapable of stopping printing money like crazy then your first scenario is more likely.

But in 100 years I really think that bitcoin is going to be in the history books and the same will be true for the mysterious person that created bitcoin and even after so much time I think they will still try to identify who was the person behind the name of satoshi.

True. No one can exactly predict what will happen in the future. Maybe in 100 years from now, if bitcoin would still be available, then it owns a very expensive price like million or billion per bitcoin or it has already been replace by another virtual currency which is much powerful than bitcoin.

When Gold was first introduced, I am sure there will be so many people by then that would not see the possibility of gold going this far, and many people will say the same thing of not being alive to know what will happen then, but those who took the step to acquire some gold based on what it will becomes in many years to come is what some generations that will never become our again are enjoying now.

100 years is too far for us to know about the future of Bitcoin, but no one knows, we might think BTC will not exist again but end up being like GOLD, we might not be alive again, but what will our future generator remember of us?

I believe that in the next 100 years, Bitcoin would have captured more than 80% of the whole financial market around the world. This would have been accepted worldwide and just think about the ease that would be there for the people in transacting money, storing value etc. This will be incredible to see a single system operating around the world. Wait! What would USD do then is a pint of concern as well.

That is an impossible thing, we cannot know what happened during that time. But it should be noted that when you talk about technology, changes will occur very rapidly. Including changes and revolutions in the financial system in the world. We will reach an era of extraordinary and unexpected sophistication. Cryptocurrencies will become a necessity and there may even be a new technology that will support the needs of the global financial system.

Perhaps it will happen as you say, but by that time we have no longer existed to witness it. I think crypto is changing the lives of many people and can see this as a technological revolution and can be applied very well to our lives. Hopefully it can happen in the next 50 years so we can teach other young people about this market and that generation will change everything related to cryptocurrency.

Nobody can do it even if they plan to give BTC to their children and grandchildren. We do not know what will happen to Bitcoin in 2020 and here the guy asked about such a long period.

The purpose pf the question I think is to understand how long would it take to get cryptocurrency as the main medium of transaction and what could be the prices of crypto coins in the next 100 years from now. I think that it is pretty obvious that cryptocurrency is a digital form of currency and is the need of the day. It has improved the system a lot and maybe in the years to come, it would have spread around the world with prices high and immense implications.
