Bitcoin was strong as when it born and becoming more and more strong as day by day.

Reason is difficulty level. Mining is used to generate bitcoins. But now a days mining is so hard due to block heights and difficulty level.

So imagine a thing that is too hard to generate how much secure it is.

Its already stated that Bitcoin is  safe by universal law.

Already there are many layers of protection.

Bitcoin is pretty strong if you ask me but it has the potential to become allot stronger in the future. This is only the beginning of Bitcoin.
I am sure that in the future it will become allot more popular then it is right now.

It is indeed an estimate that would probably be true, because now I've also noticed that the growth of the bitcoin has been very good and give a wonderful effect for the life of the majority of users of the bitcoin. Many users of the bitcoin benefit greatly by using bitcoin or trading. This is the reason that bitcoin is going to have a very long time and it could beat its existing currency

Pretty strong and persistent I would say, There where many attacks and negative criticism on bitcoin from as soon as it started till now and it had easily maintained it's status and kept growing up until now, Bitcoin fills a need for the users and I think it would persist as long as it keeps doing that.

Yes bitcoin has a very strong core. If we get more positive news instead of negative then perhaps we could so big who could know. If the hacking fiasco's didn't happen then we would be sitting above 1k  + for sure but these problems killed the faith of some investors and people so that's why we are a little below. I'm sure with time bitcoin or any digital currency like this will grow more on the people as the newer generations get older.

Yup scams are creating negative impression in the minds of new investors who are looking to invest their money in bitcoins, but the price rise clearly indicates that people have shown their trust in bitcoins.

It is very strong and you can't just hack it and script kiddies wont be able to acces it just like that so in that term it's pretty strong.
But ofcourse every security you can potentially penetrate there is always a way to unlock a door. We have seen it happen in the past but the same could happen to your bank getting hacked. It might be less likely because that would be easier to get caught with though.

Banks are safer and stronger in compare to bitcoin wallet, as if your banks account gets hack or if your money is stolen then there is always an opportunity to recover your money but same doesn't goes with bicoin.

We know that in other country Bitcoin might be strong. It is because they adopted the system of bitcoin as well. Perhaps to enjoy their citizens the all advantages of bitcoins has of how is it useful.

I don't think that there are many countries where bitcoin is strong, as if you go through different threads on this forum then you will find that everyone is complaining that bitcoin is not yet popular in their countries.

I agree scam can cause negative impression in the minds of the new investors and also in the bitcoin , just talking about bitcoin then other says that there are lot of scams on it blah blah. But it is cause by the creators of the investment sites or any about double your bitcoin in a day.

People invest their fiat in real life investments and even loose sometimes, but they never blame fiat for  that and continue to use it, then why they are discriminating bitcoin I don't understand.

I disagree with this, what you describe may seem to make banks more reliable, but what protects you from the banks? Nothing, if Banks or governments want to seize your accounts they can do it with impunity, bitcoin protects you from that because of its decentralized nature, so what you think makes bitcoin weak, in fact makes it stronger.

Yes, bitcoin is more stronger when you are considering it against bank system. What the practice we are following are right now is not at all protected or guaranteed for our ownership of our own wealth. We are still having only partial ownership with the money what we have in our bank. Bitcoin esrases this tradition and giving us full freedom and authority with our own wealth.

So how safe is it to store bitcoins in a site like coinbase?
I don't have very much at all but should I need to have offline storage if I just have a little bit of money put into bitcoin?

Bitcoin is already pretty strong but it has the potential to become even bigger, better and stronger in the future. They will need to attract more people to go out and make use of Bitcoin.
If that is not going to happen then I think that Bitcoin is not going to be as big as people think.

It depends on how long we support the bitcoin.  How long we will use it will be the answer on how strong it is.  It is strong if there were many people continuously buying, trading, investing, earning, and using bitcoins.  We know how bitcoin as before and how it is doing right now.  It become the most popular and most used cryptocurrency in the world.

are you are seriously asking if bitcoin can be hacked with a calculator? If I misunderstood please correct me, If I understood correctly will be no, unless that calculator is a super computer exceeding the size of the current bitcoin network.
I think bitcoin already proved itself to be a strong and reliable network, I don't think it can be hacked by any method known till now and if there is a bug, it will just get fixed.

Paypal will face tough competition from bitcoins in future but that doesn't mean that it will simply disappear, people who are satisfied with Paypal will continue to use it even bitcoin gains more popularity.

Not with the bitcoin itself since Paypal is a company and not a currency.

The competition will be on a company that will use purely bitcoin as payment method to all online transaction.
