Should Bitcoin even have a future?

[Bakemat]

Now that I've gotten your attention, I promise there's a method to my madness. We've all been arguing over Bitcoin XT and (now) Bitcoin Classic while ignoring that there's a real world outside of Bitcointalk and the endless schemes to get more Bitcoin. In the grand scheme of things, it's not even really all that important whether Bitcoin stands a chance of destroying traditional banks as long as Bitcoin or whatever replaces Bitcoin if it stumbles can carve out its own niche. But we're marching toward a world where things are going to be moving pretty fast in matters that don't necessarily have to do with economics and finances, except for maybe who's going to be holding the moneybags. Is it going to be us, or is it going to be the big banks, or is it going to be some Third World tyrant who may have gotten a little too big for his britches and doesn't have a graceful way out? What I'm getting at here is, are we absolutely sure we're making all the right strategic moves to make sure cryptocurrencies have a meaningful, sustainable future instead of just being seen as a funny little gimmick that went the way of Beanie Babies in a few decades? Should we be making alliances with other up-and-coming, innovative technologies to make sure we can achieve our long-term goals? This is something we'll have to consider if we want Bitcoin to have any kind of a future.

As we see the performance of bitcoin now is very awesome the price is very expensive and the value of bitcoin in the industry or economy is still great. But we cannot hide the fact that because of this we cannot say that the bitcoin is stable and have a future wr cannot predict the future only prophet can do it all we do is going with the flow and majipulate the bitcoin as going to good way to not disappear it.

I think that the future bitcoins will grow and shine, because many people use bitkoyn in huge numbers, and the adoption of bitcoins will grow, and bitcoins is acceptable throughout our days, and I hope that bitcoin will have a great future.

[Satish147]

Yes, Definitely bitcoin have future because once lightening network become operational then bitcoin can be used for normal transactions like how Raiden network works for Ethereum.

[haster100]

I believe that time is running, bitcoins should be updated where necessary, and if this is done, it will not stop its future, but I still feel when it is used by all volumes and Harry, problems can begin and security will decrease.

[hydeevanz]

Storing your bitcoin in your wallet can be considered as an investment because your money will increase in the future and you’ll benefit from that. Based on my perceptions, holding your bitcoin is more profitable due to the fact that you won’t need to make and effort because you only need is enough initial capital and it will be easy if you have a fiat in your pocket and if you’re willing to turn your fiat into crypto currency.

I am sure that bitcoin will exist for longer time than we have imagined even when its value will be very low. Blockchain is self stable and self operating platform so there will be nothing like all of sudden bitcoin will disappear.

Bitcoins will always exist depending on the demand in the market. People will always invest in bitcoins if the value is very high and because of that, the community will be keep on growing so it mean, there will be a bright future for bitcoins.

[Dmitry.Vastov]

Yes of course bitcoin has a very bright future. Bitcoin is more convenient and easy to use and for this many people of different age join bitcoin daily. Many things support it to built an unforgettable future. The blockchain software of bitcoin make it special among other currency. Bitcoin provide its user world first uninterrupted money transaction support in which no third party interferes like bank and other and it also charge low transaction cost these things attract more user toward it. Increase market price also  attract investors towards it. In this advanced society everyone wants a safe secure lifestyle and Bitcoin help them to live that kind of lifestyle  . In many institution accepted bitcoin as a fee and in many institutions bitcoin teach as a subject, so these things guide it into a beautiful future.

Bitcoin is the future, "one of the greatest inventions of mankind"
 For some reason I'm sure that the blockchain system is 100% reliable. Even if all who work with bitkoin, suddenly die, it still does not play any role. Bitcoin will stay and work.

[Marucya]

The best way to ensure its survival is to understand all the real reasons why
bitcoin can fail, and start creating real solutions to problems today, before they occur.
Bitcoin has the advantage of a pioneer. This is absolutely the first of its kind crypto currency, which still occupies a large share of the entire market, but also has major shortcomings that can kill it.
This is the problem of scaling bitcoin - with the increase in the number of users, the commission will increase due to the high capacity of the blockchain, if nothing is changed.
I believe that in every twenty years there will be dozens if not hundreds of experimental distributed consensus protocols that will outperform the blockboys on the possibilities of conducting transactions and will be supplemented with systems with artificial intelligence. Artificial Intelligence will very quickly consider all the ideas and come up with systems that could not think of humanity even for a hundred years.

[marmeladko]

The future has all the crypto-currencies, but who will survive will see later

as long as many supporters continue to support in bitcoin it still have a future just maintain on what they have started and continue to upgrade their technology and this project have a great future, and besides theres a lot of coins now that has a good value

If you notice there are a lot of businesses that are adopting with bitcoin and the entire crypto market and they are one of the reasons
why bitcoin has a great future. More will come for sure as the more people will have an idea about bitcoin it will increase their market.
If you have notice that sometimes the price will dump, then that is just a correction, eventually it will rise again and break ATH.

[mr.niwangz]

It's always been said by my friends that the time is coming to know bitcoin because of the system and easy payment methods in the future so there's really a bitcoin ahead of time and it's very worth it.

[Ngelieh@]

very right, because with the bitcoin, everything is easy to get, as long as we are careful and careful. read bitcoin in the banking world can certainly make an example for other banks, because the system and the effectiveness of bitcoin that is felt more easily in accordance with the needs of people in this world.

[ThePresident]

It is the future. Cryptocurrency is the future of payments earnings and LIFE.

[ss890]

Coming at this question after very long and seeing that how the market has evolved into new era is really sarcasm! Im hoping that bitcoin's ability will be now recognised by many people around the world. Many big industries already housed bitcoin into their digital payment system and the progress continues to new levels day by day. Bitcoin has been never about the prices or reaching the high market cap but it was all about the smoother transactions and faster one too. However, segwit2x changed the course of its history ad made it very difficult to transact on daily basis. But I think devs will recognise that sooner and will re-develop the blocks soon. Its matter of time when bitcoin will run with full nodes and speed. Lets hope for the brighter future as we are working with it.

Bitcoin is the future so it seems every day Bitcoin enthusiasts will increase every year and it will increase with time lapse.

[Rosilito]

No and why would it have. And if bitcoin does have a failure then the people who uses it is the probably main reason since bitcoin depends upon the people who uses it. Well I understand what you are pointing out but as I see that idea is kind of hard to happen since bitcoin does not even have a specific people who manages it for it to be use properly as you think. But the idea of yours would be possible if everyone who are using bitcoin would use it as properly as what you think. By that bitcoin would get drive on proper use, and would be use sustainably.

[willliamjames]

A lot of people invest in bitcoin, which allows it to be strengthened in the arena of the world market.Many evil wraps on bitcoins and we do not know that this is a centralized one. Being controlled by powerful people or the nation
