The year of 2140.

You mean youre going to live to 130?, sorry to rain on parade but everyone alive today will be long dead in 2140.

you've been to 2140 have you?

You're saying it's likely that people will live to at least 130 years by 2140?

I think that there's a quite reasonable chance that in the next 50-60 years a cure for aging (or at least a method to drastically reduce the rate of aging) will have been found.  There are some very bright men working on it as we speak.

Do you have a reliable source?

Yes indeed. We are already 3D printing human organs from stem cells and 3 weeks ago scientists modified rat DNA to replenish (anti ageing). If you are in doubt to these claims, I invite you to take a visit to "science alert" http://www.sciencealert.com.au/

That's incredible foresight. That article was written two weeks after our posts 

Also, I'm not convinced. One source (from the future) and it's from a news outlet. If I believed everything that was written in the press I'd have bought a garage for my flying car and be mining my Bitcoins on free electricity from all the fusion reactors that would be available today.

By the time the year 2140 comes around, the last generated coinbase will be about 20 years old.

Here's a question:

Will anyone alive today see the last BTC generated?  It would have to be a newborn living to be about 107, so my guess is "yes".

Here's another question:

Will any BTC user today be alive when the last BTC is generated?  I say no.  A "conscious" user (not one propped up by mommy/daddy for hipster points) would have to be, what, 7 years old? 8 years old?  So a 110-year old in ~2120 will begin using BTC in ~2017.  2017 will see the first BTC user who lives to see the last BTC generated.

You are assuming that humans would only live to 110 in 100 years. This is a very thin assumption, given recent biotechnological acceleration. I'd say, if the humanity does not destroy itself soon, 110 would be an easily reachable age by then, given you have the money to pay for it, which many people here will.

Then my advice would be to put all your BTC into Depends, assisted living centers, bladder control products, and motorized wheel chairs.  Happy times ahead in the 22nd century!!
