I don't see the reason why bitcoin is the only one given as an example in this "cashless world". I am not a holder, but BCH seems to be able to do exactly the same thing, without needing anything added (like the LN for btc). Surely, btc is more popular, but that doesn't mean it is the most viable option ever.
And I don't see the reason why the only one option we are thinking are digital currencies since there are a lot of other things besides that. One of the first one to be used when we say "cashless society" is cards, and I think it is happening since a lot of rich people don't really carry money with them but just bring credit cards with them. Digital currencies are still not ready to be a replacement for being a country's currency, there are still a lot of improvements that needs to be done and also not all people will accept digital currencies that easily to be used in their every day lives.

In my own views the future of bitcoin will be more brighter and valuable ...because at this moment on... it will known to a lot of people not just in a one country but many and if the campaign of it is continue with the unity of each and everyone of the member it will grow higher in the future.
Well you are wishing bitcoin to be more brighter and valuable but I am wishing for it to be improved because if bitcoin is still not improving the next few years, other crypto currencies will be reigning over it in terms of the price and it will be the dark days of bitcoin just like in the past when it dumps back to $200.

So many people are against bitcoin more or less because bitcoin is not stable to the point that it would scare them if they invest large amount of money and the value will not inflate. they are scared that they will just waste their time on efforts they don't know if they got something in return.
A lot of people are being scared to the feature of bitcoin which is volatility which is also the one attracting them. Here is the thing, you know that digital currencies, especially bitcoin are volatile, so why do you still want to invest in it if you do not want to lose your money? People take on risk to earn money here, and if you do not want to take on the volatility or the risk it has, then do not waste your time and money here.

I'm just like those people before that didnt expecting that bitcoin will be too expensive like now. I have a chance to buy one bitcoin just in 200$ before but i didn't believe to the bitcoin that time. I thought that bitcoin will not going to last longer and it will become scam after having many investors on it.
A years past the bitcoin price rised to 500$ and im thinking that time if i will going to give it a try to invest some money on it. But like before i didnt believe to bitcoin again. The negavity are still on my body thinking that bitcoin will be down sooner.
Until this year i got a chance to have bitcoin in 3000$ dollar but i didnt take this opportunity again i feel that im really so stupid when it reached 5000$.
Do you think guys bitcoin will reach 8000$ next year? i really want to give it a try now. So many opportunity i wasted and i will not going to let it happen now.
I think you didn't lost the oportunity but you won't earn as much as people who made investments when it was that cheap. As long as bitcoin is there, I think the opportunity is still there, it is still not lost. And as we can see, you are still determined to invest in these digital currency so all I can say is that there are still some fire burning in you, and as long as it is there, the opportunity, is not only there but it will be there you just need to continue what you are doing.

This question is depend upon in promoting the bitcoon. Many people think that bitcoin is like a scam. So the bitcoin companies must promote the bitcoin proper by educating the people so they can know that this simple business is not a scam rather a helpful one in our life.
"bitcoin companies", huh? You do know that bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency so I there are no third parties that are involved. And why do we need to promote bitcoin? There are a lot of people who are now knew bitcoin is in existence, they can just spread the word to the people close to them and if the people knew it is best to invest in it, I think they will be also telling it to their friends too. People may refer to it as a scam but they just did not know what bitcoin is and just stating things they do not know.

It's always satisfying to listen to the benefits of this 2.0 lol currency. And in addition to saying that btc does not suffer of the inflation in contrast to fiat currencies, it must also be remembered that it may also be subject to deflation...
Bitcoin for now is better than cash because the value of bitcoin is so high. Now a days more of people using bitcoin. If you have bitcoin right now you used it to buy things. That will be efficient if that is what's happening, but mostly, bitcoin is not used as a payment to things that you can buy since bitcoin is not that still popular. The value of bitcoin may be so high, but that doesn't mean that Bitcoin is greater than Fiats or cash. Fiats are still used because it is good for the country unlike bitcoin. Bitcoin is still volatile unlike cash that is stable, so I think in terms of buying things that I need or I want, I will be using cash, but in terms of making an investment, I will go with bitcoin.

I think because it is not internationally recognized and some countries think it is a fake coin and just a bubble will go away with time
I do not know why can you said that but bitcoin is really popular in many countries today. It was triggered by the volatility of bitcoin, well, who will not be attracted to the quick or fast changing of the price and with a short period of time, you can see your profit without any hard work but I think you just need to a lot of patience. Bitcoin is the original digital currency, people will not be taking it as a fake coin unless that individual do not know what a digital currency is. They are talking about bitcoin but the truth is, did not even know what really is it and what is the purpose of this currency. Also, bitcoin may be bubble, but I think it is a bubble that will not be popped soon.

Mining bitcoin is not worth it pero di ko naman sinasuggest na wag kayo bumili, may iba pa namang mga currencies na pwede mong imine na may ganitong algo, you can just search those crpyto currencies.

The love really exist, real love is what we are. We feel broken after our one true love broke up with us. It is rather desire, fear of losing the feeling of love.
Love does exist but you will never know the true meaning of it, especially the "true" love you are saying. You can't even define the love that you are talking about even the dictionaries, they can't really describe the true meaning of it because it is really complicated. You just know you love someone but you can never tell why, or you might say that you love someone even though you don't really know if it is really love or just lust.

Still now bitcoin can't get opportunities to get all countries legalization.What do you think, can bitcoin do this?Please tell your own opinions.
Not all since a lot of the governments of every country are having a thought of bitcoin being a threat to the economy in the future. But I think it will still be good since people will be still using bitcoin unless the crypto currency was banned in that certain place or country. There are some countries that are starting to regulate bitcoin, it may be a start for them but the others already banned bitcoin.

We are now experiencing the efficient, fast and amazing convergence of technologies which one way or the other greatly contributing to the rise of the cryptocurrencies and making Bitcoin as the King of the Hill so far.
Looking into the future...what do you think will be the scenario involving Bitcoin twenty years from now? Will Bitcoin be worth more than a million or will it ceased to exist? Or will a new crytocurrency replace the supremacy of Bitcoin...?
we know that bitcoin is better from now on but after 20 years i think it will become a super natural crypto currency so there is nothing to think negative about it because bitcoin never fall down forever! 20 years is a long year, a lot of expectations are there when we are talking about the the future of bitcoin. A lot of users are saying that bitcoin is having a good year developing at the same time, but it isn't. The more the people are using it, the more the price pumps and another problem arises. In the next 20 years, I expect bitcoin to be one of the most fastest and cheapest when it comes to transaction. It is one of the main feature of the digital currency, having a cheap fee but these days, the fee is not that cheap.

I think he is saying that in the part of the people who would want a crypto currency as their main currency. I mean bitcoin cannot be a currency since it is not backed up by any banks and governments so fed really need to make own. But as a bitcoin user, I think I will be sticking to bitcoin rather than buying in their crypto currency, I mean bitcoin is decentralized.

Probably just a lot of heavy traffic or ddos-ing, though the forum has just recently switched to Cloudflare so maybe there's some transitional issues with that because it's been on and off and laggy all day for me as well (as have a lot of bitcoin related websites/exchanges).
Yeah, I've noticed that, I've been visiting isitdownrightnow.com and I am seeing a lot of exchangers in the list, thank you for the info though, I will be just reading the thread about it.

I've been getting a lot of Error 502 Bad Gateway quite some time now. I don't know what is happening but I am sure it is not my internet connection. Been struggling to post this topic too, I wonder why.

In curiosity, I know all of these can hack the price of Bitcoin, but the question is, which in your opinion is most likely to happen first?
I think I will go with the government ban, it is happening one by one with every countries still there are some that do not ban them, but it happening now so I think that is a given. The second one is either of the two, but I think that the most possible to happen next is major exchanger hack. It did happen with Mt Gox in the past year so I guess the exchangers are having a lot of things to keep so they are can't be hacked and not affect crypto currencies. And for me that have the lowest possibility from happening is the Block chain hack, it is alive for some time now but it is still doing fine.

Will it hit 20K $ by end of 2017
There is a possibility that it might hit, but also, there is a possibility it won't and for me, I will go with the possibility of it won't. There are a lot of planned forks this month and I think it will be affecting the price pump of bitcoin. We don't know what might happen, and no matter what did, I will be still holding bitcoin, don't have other reasons to sell them for now.

The price will not be the measurement of the legalization of bitcoin in countries maybe in the world. I think it will be how bitcoin will be developed in the near future.
Bitcoin may be used in a lot of countries now but some of them are starting to be threaten by how it is being developed, bitcoin has a possibility of being a global currency, but the question is, is bitcoin ready to be as global currency? I think not. Then for now, we will still be relying on it's conversion to USD. You can use BTC instead of USD, they may not know the exact price but there are a lot of sites you can visit to check how much it is in USD or your country's currency.

Guys napansin ko lang puro bitcoin ang topic and prediction na aabot ng 10k by year end but in my humble opinion malabo mangyari maybe next year 2018 jan or feb mag start ulit siyang lumipad ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Ewan ko lang kung ako lang ba nakakapansin but bitcoin cash and ethereum mukhang malaki ang potential both sila unti unti na tumaataas and konting antay nalang mukhang lilipad na din. Okay na din market cap and volume nila. Ano masasabi niyo guys? Sa tingin ko sa reply kong ito alam mo na mali ang prediction mo sa bitcoin price, and I think alam mo na din kung gaano kabilis ang pagbabago ng presyo ng bitcoin. Napakalaki ng itinaas ng Bitcoin Cash nung nagdump ang bitcoin, pero wala pa din tlaga laban ang BCC sa BTC, well, altcoins will always be altcoins. Pero di ko naman dinadown ang mga altcoins, in fact ayoko na naiiwan ang Eth sa pagtaas ng BTC kasi naapektuhan yung mga altcoin holders, isa na ako dun. I hope makahabol ang ETH sa pagtaas ng bitcoin, kahit 50% lang ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Napaka sikat na ng bitcoin, hindi man siya ganun kaalam sa atin pero dumadami na ang users ng bitcoin lalo na dito sa kontinente natin, which is the biggest continent in the world. Sa tingin ko sa pagsikat ng crypto currency na ito, kelangan na talaga natin na may magpopretekta sa mga transaksyon natin. Gusto ko na mairegulate ang bitcoin. Sang ayon ako sa sinasabi mo. Sa napakabilis ng pagsikat ng bitcoin ngayon sa ating bansa, unti unti na din nating nakikita ang pagtaas ng presyo, ibig sabihin marami na ang gusto at may balak na bumili at kumita ng sarili nilang bitcoin. Kasunod nito syempre ang mga taong nagbabalak ng masama para kumita ng bitcoin, at ito and dahilan kung bakit kailangan natin ng mga taong magsesecure sa mga transactions natin. Kung ireregulate man ng gobyerno ang bitcoin, sa tingin ko napakagandang way ito para ipakita sa iba pang mga Pilipino kung gaano makakatulong ang crypto currency or digital currency na ito. Hindi man mawawala ang negativity ng tao sa gobyerno at iisipin nila na may balak sila dito, sa tingin ko may maganda din itong maiidulot sa atin.
