Bitcoin can not replace fiat

[Theb]

Yes true, currently bitcoin is the best investment because the users is increased so the price will increase, but I agree that bitcoin is never change or replace fiat money, because the government will protect fiat money.

in fact in present condition bitcoin is not in position to replace fiat, because majority of people are still using fiat as their main currency therefore i do not think that is possible in next some decades to replace fiat.

you never know when it happens,they will just announce it suddenly,like they do when happens hyper inflation,so keep bitcoin till that time,it will help you retire wisely and soon

We just need to keep fighting for it. We do not know what will happen tomorrow, government might bump their minds that bitcoin can really help the entire country so they gonna use it as primary currency, though it takes time to happen and need more studies but who knows.

Nope Bitcoin is not the best investment there is maybe when it was price under 100$ it is but right now I would stay away putting my money in Bitcoin at its current price range. Right now there are dozens of good stocks you can buy that has a good growth into it. Growth stocks are way more safer compared to Bitcoin. Because the margin of safety is big eith companies growing their businesses.

With all of the evidence and the government has seen about that thing. Or it will be realized by the goverment later. But it looks like they're driven by the bank itself. It's really bad.

It was never meant to replace fiat, just to be good enough as an alternative in case fiat fails (Cyprus, Greece, Ukraine, India, etc)

The possibility of it is good enough. I do believe that time will come bitcoin will be access by all maybe it takes time but if we support it all through out then for sure it will be. It is all about us, the reason why it will be implemented. Let the government see it worth and make it as one currency. But the govt. has to see that by using bitcoin, their own economy does not suffer.

yes there is no doubt about this as everything is possible in this world about i think it will take such a long time. may be decades, as still majority of the people are still using fiat as their main currency. but now the interest of the people is increasing to use online currency for trading,

That's what, and I do not intend to feed false illusions on the account of the future bitcoins. Fiat is a currency to which all people are accustomed and suitable for the convenience of using them, unlike bitkoin. Therefore Bitkoin will remain the leader only in his field.

That's correct, we have to be very realistic here because fiat will never be replace by anything, it's the money that government has regulated an bitcoin is not regulated yet. Bitcoin is only define as a payment system so it's stays that way and will never get the power fiat has enjoyed.

Maybe there is a possibility on long term, who knows? Fiat can fail, become worthless when people see how many advantages there are when using Crypto Currencies. People like fiat yet because they want to have the money on their own hands and they don't trust to have all their money only in virtual world like Bitcoin. I think to defeat government fiat, Crypto Currencies need to have a "paper", physical coin also.

If bitcoin have paper or physical coins is certainly not a crypto again. Because Crypto is a digital currency, which means only used digitally and does not have a physical form. I'm not sure there will be physical coins of bitcoin because if it happens for sure it will be a paper or physical coins are very fluctuating. And I think it's impossible fiat become worthless except in a state of war or a very bad economy, and it will definitely be back to normal again. I am sure in the future people will use bitcoin because ease and profits, but I think it does not mean that will replace fiat. I still believe bitcoin will be a very good alternative to fiat, not replace.

For now I think bitcoin can't replace fiat for sure but we never knoe about the future. If only government can take control of bitcoin, I think bitcoin will replace it for sure. But until now there is no one that control bitcoin price for sure so for now fiat is still dependable for overall activity

Bitcoin for replacing the fiat is very impossible because the one that government like is the currency that they can control and can manipulate to generate income from being the leader. I don't think bitcoin will be like that currency because bitcoin is decentralized and it can't be controlled by other people as well as the government.

[LeGaulois]

I think we would need a major change in the mind of people. Because we are so used to use fiat since we are born and it is the only thing we know. So making bitcoin as an official currency surely won't be enough. And the time needed to accept it can be very long. You can take the exemple of the euro currency, up to know there are people, mainly senior, still facing problem or confused about the value of things, as compared to the old currency. Most of people still convert to thei old currency to see how things cost. Using as the only internationnal currency can be worste considering the time to see it adopted, and maybe will never happen

I somewhat disagree with this point of view

In many countries, and especially those where local currencies are not very stable overall, people often calculate prices in some other, let's call it "hard" currency (in most cases it is the ever green ever present US dollar). And the prices of many expensive items such as houses, automobiles or apartments are set directly in some other foreign currency. No one is forcing all these people to do so apart from economic (financial) situation in their countries. As the proverb goes, necessity is the mother of invention, so I don't think the issues you raise in your post are really important

[hankyulpark]

The primary goal of BTC originally was to replace fiat currencies? As I recall, BTC creator(s) was looking for the freedom to not rely on a Central Bank as the "keeper" of BTC value. The ability to let the market decide its worth and applications, without governmental control.
Is this enough to replace a fiat currency? I don't think so because our world isn't developed enough yet to go totally digital on currencies.

I agree with you. In fact, only a small percentage of the world's population knows about the cryptocurrency. Therefore, the crypto currency will not soon catch up with the popularity of Fiat. And hardly ever replace the Fiat

It is not really able to make it, that is the fact with bitcoin. And bitcoin will always be treated as an investment by most of the people, though many of us are already using it as an online currency. But there would be one day that the fiat will be upgraded into something that has the same idea with bitcoin and other crypto's.

Yes, bitcoins are now considered by many people as investments. This is due to the fact that the price of bitcoin is growing. In the long term, it can grow several times.
Few people use bitcoins to buy everyday products

Actually as of now in most of the countries, we can't buy any everyday products using bitcoins directly because they are not so popular in mainstream business yet. Bitcoins are more popular in the gambling industry. But for investment purpose, it is quite good because of its high price fluctuations we can make some profits regularly.

Popularity in other aspect will just come on the right time, it so happen that gambling is suitable for bitcoin supporters because it's easy
and fast to gamble. With the progressing bitcoin gambling industry, it will raise awareness to those gamblers who are still using fiat as of now
if they know and convince that it's a legitimate asset they will eventually adopt in the future.

They're converting it into the fiat balance through the local exchange site/ international exchange site. The limited access for using bitcoin in our community will make them all try to get on the another way.

Because the bitcoin is the first. A lot of the gambling site is focusing on the bitcoin betting.
Your second word just refers to the trading method.

And if you are aware of the price now, the price is increasing and in line with this progress. Bitcoin still doesn't have the chance to replace fiat. We know it that government will not recognize bitcoin as their main currency but they can recognize it as another form of asset or investment which will help their economy to boost.

Well if you already consider bitcoin as an investment then you should be well aware of it's potential as an alternative currency to fiat. But then that's just about it. Alternative. It can't really replace the fiat system and it doesn't really need to. Fiat can survive even with the emergence of btc

[Oatmeal]

There are some possibilities that bitcoin can replace fiat, in some countries especially European countries do believe that in the near future bitcoin will be used by all people. In fact a place in Europe use bitcoin as the sign of exchange on some material things they buy such as in grocery stores, food and drinks in some bars. And there are some experts who believes that there is a big chance that bitcoin can replace fiat it is because bitcoin is flexible I mean by flexible is that it has more advantages that fiat money such as Privacy protection, free to transfer and hold and freedom to transact and many more.

[Cherylstar86]

We cannot replace fiat with bitcoin because it has a fluctuated price in the market and I don't think it can be recognized by business owners who wanted stable income, specially nowadays competition is still an outbreak. So don't be discourage because bitcoin still can be a source of sustainable fiat cash, that can be use for your daily life spending on important things which you really needed.
