What will be our new world currency?

As a Bitcoin user, I really wish that Bitcoin should be new world currency, But really not sure whether its gonna get on the mainstream or not, as the adoption level as required is not at a moment and it would be only done if there is awareness among the society.

I hope bitcoin will be, that would be great.  But some places it just will not happen.

I think pretty much any country gold will hold value easily.  So I'm going with gold, but hoping I'm wrong and it turns out to be BTC.

Any Bitcoiner around the forums will say exactly the same thing ... we all hope that bitcoin will be . but there is a low chance for that so low . I'd say US Dollar for the next 30 years however that dosen't mean Bitcoin failure...

Bitcoin will be around no matter what happens, thats what's good news. No matter how much the dollar lasts for, we all know its ultimate demise: Collapse. Even if they can keep the show running for 30 more years, the decline is a gradual one, which means it doesn't take 30 years for BTC to be the safe haven of a failing economy and us visiting not moon but jupiter.

i also think the us dollar has the best position in this case. bitcoin can be a great alternative for a lot people world wide. we don't need bitcoin to be nr1. it already gave us the freedom of being our own bank.

 USA dollar has chance to stay for sometime,my next candidate is yuan,but chinise will rather  dont want that

 It could be currency backed by gold,will be good ,becouse of stability.Maybesome global currency backed by gold,not owned by any country

[jerowacik]

china with yuan have many population in this world  . i think yuan can be huge in future , but bitcoin  need more time for huge and get trust from people , this is hard . so dump and pump very risk . . .

Wow, that graphic is scary, eh?

It looks like we're due for another "earth quake". We need more people to respond to this...maybe share this with the people who frequent Politics & Society?

I voted for Bitcoin, because I will believe in Bitcoin! Bitcoin is the best currency in the world!

[Outlander]

First is US Dollar for another 30+ years, second is China yuan. I believe Bitcoin has a lot of potential and it still has a long way to go to become a world currency.I think no ppl will choose Zimbabwe dollar, gold is no longer used as currency, and recognized as safe haven of storing value or industrial material.

You could have put Greece up there to be a little current.   Sadly I think they will still  have some effect on zone until someone bails them out.

I do think a "world currency" is a hard thing.  Its not easy to get entire world to accept a form of currency.

BRICS Bank’s 1st loan to be issued in yuan

The BRICS New Development Bank will name its first investment in April next year and the first loan will be issued in yuan not dollar, top officials confirmed.

For the time being, it's going to be the dollar. Other currencies may have more value, but it's the dollar that everything else is compared too. Bitcoin is a bit too niche to be the currency of the world. However, the future currency of the world will probably be an online one similar to bitcoin, because more and more people are just using cards and not physical dollars anyway.

It's all going online, bitcoin may or may not be the currency to really do it.

 I think that the 3 top currencies will be US $, Euro and Bitcoin, as prevalent in digital world.

[n2004al]

There it will be not any new world currency. There will be the currency which has been the currency of the world since its creation. The United States dollar. There are to many reasons for that. But the most important is the faith on it in all the world because of the power and the role that United States have in the world.

Bitcoin maybe it will become one day (with the work of every of us) its privileged child and one day maybe can stay beside of it. It is my hope this.

[g1974ak]

For me the new world currency will be the old one. Us dollar. Maybe bitcoin will have his place on the world of currencies but it will not possible that can be predominant. Then another important currency will be yuan because China are going very well with the economy and with the investment outside China.
