Title: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: marshall2020 on October 07, 2019, 07:21:58 PM I read an article today on https://gizmodo.com What's Going to Happen With Bitcoin?
Some experts posted their views. Here's my little non-expert view So what will happen to bitcoin? Bitcoin's creators have been clear that they intend this to become a currency of the future and not a speculative investment at a time when the rest of the world was struggling with stock market crashes in 2008. As noted elsewhere, It's also part of a worldwide trend toward digital money so it will continue and will survive. The fact that the Bitcoin protocol has been around for a while means that it will continue to evolve. You bet. This is one reason Bitcoin could easily become a global currency while staying true to its original intentions. However, to what extent the cryptocurrency will evolve as a payment system depends on global acceptance. But what about Google's claim to have reached quantum supremacy? History has shown us that the will of the people and the masses can never be suppressed by any new tech. Where there's a will there will always be a way. What do you all think? Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: AverageGlabella on October 07, 2019, 10:11:08 PM What does Google reaching "Supremacy" have anything to do with Bitcoin? The quantum computer they are developing will not effect Bitcoin anymore than it will effect the banks of the world. Anyone claiming anything different is scare mongering and has a lack of knowledge about quantum computers and specifically the one that Google is developing. The Google quantum computer is not designed to mine Bitcoin or break the algorithm which Bitcoin uses. Even if we were to assume that the quantum computer could break the algorithm or mine Bitcoin then this would be the only quantum computer in the world that is capable of doing it and a change in algorithm which is quantum resistant would prevent any issues on that side and the difficulty of Bitcoin would be adjusted only slightly with one quantum computer in existence capable of shifting the network computation balance.
Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Darooghe on October 07, 2019, 10:41:33 PM The much bigger concern is breaking military and commercial encryption that doesn't hash public keys. Bitcoin addresses are naturally quantum resistant because the public keys are hashed several times to create the addresses, and the hashing function is not endangered by quantum computing yet.
While an attacker could use a quantum computer to derive your private key from your public key, your public keys are not revealed until your bitcoins are spent. As long as addresses are not reused, the only time your bitcoins would be vulnerable is the brief window between the time your transaction is broadcast to the network (revealing your public key) and the time it is confirmed by a miner. This is one of the reasons why modern wallets issue change to brand-new bitcoin addresses with new keys. Once you send bitcoins out of an address, you ought to never put bitcoins back into that address ever again. If you do, then the attacker might already know your private key and could forge a transaction to steal those newly-added bitcoins. Best practice is to use a new randomly-generated address every time you receive bitcoins, and let your wallet application manage all of those addresses for you. In summary, Addresses that have not been previously used in spending transactions, burned bitcoins, and unintentionally lost bitcoins, are not vulnerable to quantum computer attacks.

It would probably have to be built into the existing system to only allow single use addresses and a way of doing this automatically in the wallet software. I would think that by the time quantum computers are becoming a threat we would have already figured out most of the concerns right now. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Wexnident on October 08, 2019, 12:24:51 AM I read an article today on https://gizmodo.com What's Going to Happen With Bitcoin? Bitcoin would naturally imo what people want itnto be. A leading digital currency in the age filled with block chain technology. As the forefather of coins, it has the best potential to improve itself since most of the community would develop it rather than create something else. Some experts posted their views. Here's my little non-expert view So what will happen to bitcoin?

Quantum supremacy doesn't necessarily mean only they would reach it. The community would soon counter their supremacy and achieve an equal standing with them, preventing the crash of digital currency. Besides, with them announcing supremacy right now already informs the community that we should move to create preventions or alternatives to counter it. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin?

There's an importance of digital currency in this world, like it can provide security and privacy to your money. There's a time that bitcoin will go ups and downs, but it will always survive because of its ability to control our market. Bitcoin can really excel and become more useful in the world as the global currency. Cryptocurrency will extent depends on the countries that values it as a money to. There's a lot of countries who accepts bitcoin in their market. Maybe in the future, more countries will now adapt the bitcoin as their digital money when they comprehend its importance and value in the market. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin?

Honestly, I got a little concerned with the news from Google that it already achieved the so-called Quantum Supremacy. But then I also thought that I am sure there are ways to protect Bitcoin from this technology so it will not disturb Bitcoin in any way. As someone here stated, if there is a will there is always a way. Sooner or later, wallets will be adopting measures to protect their network and ecosystem from possible incursions and destruction that we presume can come from quantum technology. Actually, quantum computing technology is an exciting development and there are many good uses for that though just like a weapon of war it can also be utilized for something we do not desire in the first place...so it can be a double-edged weapon and the way I see it can have some military and security applications countries may be interested to explore with. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: glendall on October 08, 2019, 03:44:58 AM bitcoin arises indeed to answer all the problems of the world economy, especially in the future,
the economy is now very fragile, the banking system is making everything chaotic, inflation unstoppable, and money ownership uneven, bitcoin appears to eliminate it all, if the government must regulate bitcon and provide regulation, this is a danger because bitcoin will be difficult to move because it is still regulated by the government. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Kelvinid on October 08, 2019, 04:27:45 AM What we would like to see after this long bearish struggle? is to see it regains market dominance. I know and I believe that Bitcoin could face this is a problem and for the crypto believer to patiently wait for its come back. It is gonna be a long fight for Bitcoin but I'd never think that it will drop below 5k even this downtrend will continue until the end of this year.

History has shown us that the will of the people and the masses can never be suppressed by any new tech. Where there's a will there will always be a way. What do you all think? Bitcoin has been around for ten years and has not encountered any problems regarding quantum supremacy. These claims made by people on the account that quantum computers will be a threat to the entire blockchain network and blockchain technology do not really understand what blockchain technology is and how it operates. These claims are just FUDs Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Kyraishi on October 08, 2019, 04:40:31 AM Not sure why google reaching "supremacy" is really meant to affect how BTC works, it's not a deal-breaker and I doubt the computer they make would be used to brute force private keys (we don't even know when the quantum computer will be ready as well).
Larger problem would be to military and government operations if a super-computer could get created, and even if it could break private keys, there are a lot of ways to avoid these issues (eg, using changing addresses). Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: maydna on October 08, 2019, 04:52:27 AM Here is what I thought about bitcoin. Bitcoin will survive in the bear market and will get the bull market soon. The price will rise to the highest price, and that will attract a new investor to come. The claims from Google do not make bitcoin afraid, although we know that Google wants to conquer the internet and real-life, I am sure that bitcoin can handle it. Google still needs more time to develop their project, especially if they're going to join in the crypto world, and there are many things to do from Google before they can convince people to use their product. I don't think that Google can beat bitcoin even if they say that they have reached quantum supremacy which I don't know for sure what is mean.

You have pointed out the best part of why bitcoin has existed in the first place but as you have said we still plenty of obstacles before bitcoin become the future currency. If googles claim will become reality then I am not sure if bitcoin can still adjust to it for it to continue it's goal which is to become the future currency. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Kakmakr on October 08, 2019, 05:22:31 AM Bitcoin's future is not clear, so everything we say now is just pure speculation. As with most technologies and new products, you will always find that competitors enters the market and they try to mimic the original idea. You see this with the 1000s of Alt coins that was developed after Bitcoin was launched.
Will Bitcoin always be the dominant token? The short answer is probably not, because there are very talented developers out there and they can come up with a faster or more efficient solution in the future. ::) Will Bitcoin survive? Yes, because a lot are done by our developers to constantly improve the Bitcoin protocol. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Wind_FURY on October 08, 2019, 05:22:54 AM Too many talking about Bitcoin as a "global currency, the "price", the bears and the bulls, but have forgotten Bitcoin's real value proposition. Censorship-resistance.
I believe that would be something seldom used as a "medium of exchange/global currency for coffee transactions". It would be an opt-out mechanism/hedge against the the banks. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Darker45 on October 08, 2019, 07:57:43 AM Well, Bitcoin has to evolve, as with everything else. That is one law of nature. Either that, or it will become obsolete and will eventually be replaced by a better one. Circumstances differ from one point of time to another and so there will be necessary adjustments. Bitcoin is constantly developing. Adjustments have been made. Transaction fees lower down, confirmation time lessens, blocks increase in size, data removed from transactions, even a layer two network is added, etc. These are necessary adjustments to keep Bitcoin's relevance and to extend its longevity.

History has shown us that the will of the people and the masses can never be suppressed by any new tech. Where there's a will there will always be a way. Quantum computers by Google can be a threat to bitcoin in security if used in a bad way, but Google is aint that cheap and they will not have the intention to attack us I think.What do you all think? The team stating that they built bitcoin to become a currency will be useless if us users/supporters will not help to make a move to develop bitcoin to a legal currency, tons people here see bitcoin as a speculative investment, not a currency. Bitcoin will die off if something will not change from now for sure. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin?

History has shown us that the will of the people and the masses can never be suppressed by any new tech. Where there's a will there will always be a way. What do you all think? You are trying to generate estimates on a variable that is not yet there. First of all, we should come up with a quantum computer and see the processing power. The estimates made without this are meaningless. In the local section, a friend had made a simple calculation of his own. According to this calculation, the probability of 20 billion quantum computers finding a BTC address in 10,000 years; 0.0000000000139910250239947861121617024005824700676 Even if we increase the probability of 1000 times based on incorrect calculations; then probability reach 0.0000000139910250239947861121617024005824700676 So, do you think this assessment should be taken seriously? [BTW, This calculation made by the friend is based on the claim that quantum computers can perform the operation calculated by the computers in 10,000 years in 300 seconds. Probability values are based only on figures on discourses.] The possibility to detect the Private Key of a Bitcoin address is also taken from: There are exactly 2^160 possible addresses as long as we keep using RIPE-MD160. 2^160 is 1,461,501,637,330,902,918,203,684,832,716,283,019,655,932,542,976. 10.000 yıl süre, 20.000.000.000 toplam kuantum bilgisayar ile bir bitcoin adresini bulma ihtimalimiz : %0.00000000001399102502399478611216170240058247006766 dir öğrenmek isterim.

Maybe we should focus on the long term effect of having a quantum computer, well, there's a small possibility that today's people will afford buying one quantum computer, but soon, if technology will further develop, people might think of ways to bypass the bitcoin's blockchain factorization algorithm. Though, that way how quantum computer computes and solves algorithm is totally different that generic or classical computer, the link for quantum computer to manipulate the algorithm of bitcoin's blockchain is merely impossible at the moment.

Google may reached the quantum supremacy but it is not enough to break the security of Bitcoin. History has shown us that the will of the people and the masses can never be suppressed by any new tech. Where there's a will there will always be a way. What do you all think? People live and keep on developing new Idea. It is the will of people that develops technology so it is reasonable that people will always find a way to beat this technology, Google really is a strong entity in terms of technological advancement and it can change the cashless society like bitcoin in an instant. Im sure that the developer of bitcoin see this one comming most specially if he sees it as a long term existing monetary policy. I don't think so, since google is not a financial institution and does not hold any power over finance decision. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin?

I'm certain, that the paper pieces (I mean cash) won't be necessary for the future, there will be digital money to replace them, yes. Crypto will spread more than now, but maybe with a little more regulations. Anything else - I don't know. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: blckhawk on October 08, 2019, 01:54:50 PM From what I know so far, Google's quantum computer did no threats to bitcoin/crypto. And if it were much powerful, I'm sure Google won't crack private keys put of nowhere. If however, that quantum computer got commercialized, then researchers of cryptography had already been working out on algorithms that may be considered quantum resistant. And if ever that happens, those researchers would also have their own computer to test out different, more complex types of cryptography.
Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Ridwan Fauzi on October 08, 2019, 02:12:02 PM I don't have any idea to give a statement if there is someone who say bitcoin will be a global currency. In one side, I'll be very charmed to see that's happen because I'll be someone who support and part of user who started it from the bottom. But in other side, this thing is really difficult to happen, I mean when there is many countries who use bitcoin and give direction to their citizen to use bitcoin and they will make a decision to burn their currency, yeah it won't be happen in my humble opinion.
But I'll bet there is no project who will be able to overtake the popularity or the price of bitcoin in the future. Many people out there just still believe to it and even they are thinking that the new project is scam and most of them is have centralized system which is mean it is far when we talk cryptocurrency. Because we use cryptocurrency we don't talk about the function of the project itself but the price factor will always be considered by the user. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: alexsandria on October 10, 2019, 09:57:41 AM I dont think that this supremacy will break bitcoin's security. If there will be a time that these quantum computers will bypass the bitcoin's blockchain factorization algorithm, I think the moderators of bitcoin will also make a way for it not to happen. They wouldnt just sit in their computer waiting for that horrific day to come right? Bitcoin hopefully will be the currency of the future.
Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: mascherono on October 10, 2019, 10:03:49 AM Nothing will happen I think. Because bitcoin on its own way. Just need to wait to see the more profit.
Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: dothebeats on October 10, 2019, 10:16:13 AM An entity reaching ‘quantum supremacy’ in today’s technology and hardware means nothing, given that most of our cryptographic algorithms are still quite bulletproof and, in a way, quantum-resistant. Now, I’m not saying that bitcoin is not prone to such attacks in the future, only that it’s too early to come into conclusions and make bold claims. With lots of brillint and active developers still working on improving bitcoin, I don’t think we’re in danger. Bitcoin is still as robust as it can be, and will remain as is in the coming years—or even a decade.

Post by: skarais on October 10, 2019, 10:33:17 AM For some reason, maybe bitcoin is fully suitable to be a legal payment tool. But until now not enough countries have given citizens or residents the right to receive payments with bitcoin.
Apart from colliding with various rules, there are other reasons why this might not be suitable as a means of payment. The involvement of fiat currencies in bitcoin seems inseparable, this is what makes me think that between bitcoin and fiat is better to live together and without being replaced. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: pankajgupta on October 10, 2019, 10:50:47 AM Yes, Bitcoin is the future currency. It is spreading day by day. But due to some of its features like we can't know who is sender and receiver, It's good or bad depending on for what purpose transaction has made.
So, some countries are deciding to ban it. But Bitcoin is a virtual currency, no govt. can ban it if they want it. Bitcoin remain active in use until we want to use it. It will be used for transactions in the future as used now and It's number of users are increasing day by day because of it's decentralized nature. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin?

If they want to compete with bitcoin, then I think that will need more works from Google. Bitcoin could easily become a global currency but we need more time to see it is happening and I don't think that we will see it in a short time. When people want to make bitcoin as a global currency, they will push the governments to accept bitcoin as a new payment system and that will not related to Google or any big company. We still have a long journey to see bitcoin become a global currency and it's not easy to see the government will approve bitcoin.

Good thing is that the price is still holding. However, we need to break through the resistance at the level of $ 9000. The possibility that bulls can take over and lead the market to new highs, exists. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin?

Analyzers tend to call random numbers and "experts" talk about things they don't understand, often calling Bitcoin a bubble of no value. Just do your own research and decide for yourself what will happen to Bitcoin, that's my two cents. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: crossabdd on October 10, 2019, 11:41:27 PM the early history of bitcoin was created was to speed up transactions, without middle men, and reduce transaction fees. because the real money constraint is all three. but because the concept of bitcoin was created through computer mining and has a limited amount, many people see bitcoin as not a digital currency but rather digital gold. so that it is used as a commodity and becomes world trade. for a future. bitcoin remains a pioneer in blockchain technology and has created a new network for better digital money.

We can deny that some experts tell a lie just for their benefits. May some of them call it a bubble and turn into zero value but I'd never think it will bring into that price. Bitcoin makes crypto alive and becomes a valuable coin in the market. Analyzers tend to call random numbers and "experts" talk about things they don't understand, often calling Bitcoin a bubble of no value. Just do your own research and decide for yourself what will happen to Bitcoin, that's my two cents. It may be we have to open our mind, we fill this with positive rather than to fill it with negative thoughts. We are looking into the huge market adoption which could help to sustain Bitcoin's value for the coming years rather than to see deteriorating. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: timerland on October 11, 2019, 12:36:55 AM But what about Google's claim to have reached quantum supremacy? Google may reached the quantum supremacy but it is not enough to break the security of Bitcoin. History has shown us that the will of the people and the masses can never be suppressed by any new tech. Where there's a will there will always be a way. What do you all think? People live and keep on developing new Idea. It is the will of people that develops technology so it is reasonable that people will always find a way to beat this technology, Google really is a strong entity in terms of technological advancement and it can change the cashless society like bitcoin in an instant. Im sure that the developer of bitcoin see this one comming most specially if he sees it as a long term existing monetary policy. I don't think so, since google is not a financial institution and does not hold any power over finance decision. If Google was able to create a computer that was possibly 1,000 - 10,000 times faster then the top computer systems nowadays, maybe we'd have an issue, but right now it's just nothing to worry about. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: Murat on October 11, 2019, 06:04:40 AM I believe that Bitcoin will dominate in the monetary world in the future, So far I have seen regarding this blockchain system that people are getting in touch with this system and they are adopting with Blockchain system day by day. I know a lot of people who don't want to deposit their money in the bank because of privacy and hassle so blockchain would be the best platform for them, it's true that many people are so much worried about the price of Bitcoin, It's too unstable and volatile, people also lost faith in the ICO due to a lot of scam project. whatever the case, I think we are going to lead a life fully techno-based so it Blockchain system will be our main economic platform if regulation and policy will get established.

Post by: mascherono on October 12, 2019, 02:22:10 PM No doubt bitcoin will grow as early as possible. Though lots of people already invested their money in this project. And obviously there is a high chance of gaining more profits. The is a bad news though which I read in another thread that bitcoin will lose it's popularity. I'm not completely agree with that person. With the passage of time most countries are allowing bitcoin. So there is no doubt that bitcoin will grow more and more.
That matter of joy that I read this article https://all-stocks.net/russian-engineer-used-a-supercomputer-to-mine-bitcoin-at-nuclear-facility/ Let see what happen in the future. LOL!

Post by: Genemind on October 12, 2019, 02:33:51 PM It has been predicted that Bitcoin wouldn't only end up as an investment instrument but rather a currency that would replace fiat in the future. As we can see, there are lots of changes and adoptions that happened to Bitcoin over the years. It isn't impossible for it to reach more. Bitcoin is always unpredictable but it keeps on surprising. If there will be massive adoptions in the future, Bitcoin could really be the digital currency that will change every economic situation.

Post by: jets567 on October 25, 2019, 02:09:15 PM In the local section, a friend had made a simple calculation of his own. According to this calculation, the probability of 20 billion quantum computers finding a BTC address in 10,000 years; 0.0000000000139910250239947861121617024005824700676 Even if we increase the probability of 1000 times based on incorrect calculations; then probability reach 0.0000000139910250239947861121617024005824700676 So, do you think this assessment should be taken seriously? [BTW, This calculation made by the friend is based on the claim that quantum computers can perform the operation calculated by the computers in 10,000 years in 300 seconds. Probability values are based only on figures on discourses.] I'm not good at calculation but this answer makes sense so I think we don't know to worry about quantum computers for now, instead lets help and support Bitcoin's technology to spread more awareness globally and maybe someday we could open the eyes of the people who don't know the true worth of Bitcoin. Cryptocurrency might die but I'm pretty sure that the technology will last forever. Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin?

Post by: lionheart78 on October 25, 2019, 02:29:22 PM No, Bitcoin isn't an option to take place over fiat but an option for us to use as a currency. Have to know that we are currently using this as a currency, not only it becomes applicable in all areas but people appreciate it for fast and easy transaction confirmation. It was considered that some of us purely seeing Bitcoin as an investment alone but sooner or later, either we like it or not, Bitcoin will be used as a currency. Bitcoin is an option to take place over fiat but I am sure government won't choose this option. Being an option does not necessary means you have to choose it. It is there in place the current system failed to work. in my opinion when google succeeded in making quantum computer technology. then the world will follow along with bitcoin and blockchain. maybe later in the future bitcoin developers will work hard to further improve the security system and so it is not easily hacked by quantum computer users. so as long as bitcoin developers and users can increase their security. nothing to worry about.

To become the world digital currency we need more development so that everyone is able to send the transaction in a short period of time and with lower transaction fees, we have low transaction fees now but to become a world digital currency you need more development to be done and if people are holding the money thinking about monetary gain you cannot blame them.Truth is that, majority of those who are holding Bitcoin or investing in it are in it for the money more reason we see constant price prediction.

Title: Re: So what will happen to Bitcoin? Post by: cotton ball on October 29, 2019, 12:20:12 PM I read an article today on https://gizmodo.com What's Going to Happen With Bitcoin? You searching on google without know who give opinion about this article, he is an expert of bitcoin or not, always recheck with article do you read because you know which one good resource for your link and your information, not bad thing happen with bitcoin because many investor trust and loyal with investing on bitcoin and altcoin, they think bitcoin best investment assets for the future.Some experts posted their views. Here's my little non-expert view So what will happen to bitcoin? Bitcoin's creators have been clear that they intend this to become a currency of the future and not a speculative investment at a time when the rest of the world was struggling with stock market crashes in 2008. As noted elsewhere, It's also part of a worldwide trend toward digital money so it will continue and will survive. The fact that the Bitcoin protocol has been around for a while means that it will continue to evolve. You bet. This is one reason Bitcoin could easily become a global currency while staying true to its original intentions. However, to what extent the cryptocurrency will evolve as a payment system depends on global acceptance. But what about Google's claim to have reached quantum supremacy? History has shown us that the will of the people and the masses can never be suppressed by any new tech. Where there's a will there will always be a way. What do you all think?
