In what situation would Bitcoin die?

[carlerha]

Looks like we are running into those direction, making bitcoin a bad investment due to the high fees being charged, i dont know if bitcoin will be able to survice if we reach at some point big fees at any ammounts, because bitcoin were amazing to micro payments, now looking better others altcoins then those, but time will let us know.

bitcoin might not be dead, given bitcoin is one of the best investments that exist for today. other than that bitcoin has a high price for this time, and it probably will always ensure that bitcoin will not die.

yes bitcoin cannot die in any condition or situation. i think it will continue just in a better way, although there are situation that can effect bitcoin up to certain limit but still it cannot cause bitcoin to die, for example the increasing transaction fee can effect bitcoin a lot.

If miners stop mining there there will be no one to confirm the transasction, all will be unconfirmed and pending then people will start to panic and avoid Bitcoin.  Supporters will then be haters and worst everyone will look at other cryptocurrency that performs better than Bitcoin and leave Bitcoin without support.  So Bitcoin will die if miners stop mining it and make the network idle.

It can still be picked up right? It can be unactive, but not dead?

There are many different situations and aspects for bitcpin to die. First one when all bitcoins are mined : Now we all know bitcoin has a supply limit so after all bitcoins are mined people will start selling their coins as price growth will be low and mostly by 2060 it will be over.
Other thing that can happen is countries banning the use of bitcoin or actually holding any coins or in online wallets.

i'm not sure with your statement, even though the whole bitcoin has been mined which estimated in the next 100 years not 50 or 40 years. miner would always needed to proccess the transaction , so it's not the reason bitcoin gonna die, things could make bitcoin die and disappear are when there's no interest in bitcoin due too high fee and too long confirmation proccess for example.

How and why would the end of bitcoin (and any other cryptocurrency) occur? Value decrease? Legality issues? Different technology/ideas to supersede it?

Another crypto overtaking its market cap

That would be the most probable scenario for a "dead Bitcoin", too. No demand, no users, no transactions. Everyone does not use it, it seems impossible. The current deal is unstoppable。The only possibility is that later can not solve the problem of congestion.By that time, it is really dead。

quantum computers mean death of crypto/btc  

I saw this several times, what "quantum computers" means exactly? And how that can be the end of the blockchain? I will search for answers, but I would like to here what community have to say about it.
Bitcoin will not die anytime soon, I doubt that whole world can stay without electricity, fee's are not the same for every wallet, waiting for transaction to confirm will be solved, so I don't see any good reason for bitcoin to die.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_computing
In some theorys, the quantum computing will be threatened bitcoin because he can break the algorithm such as SHA 256 which it is currently used by bitcoin.

looks like the quantum computing still on the theory.

I think there is just a small chance that bitcoin would die. Maybe in the future, bitcoin will face some kind of technical issues that will questiond its credibility but i dont think it will vanish. But anything can happen you know like worldwide natural phenomenon that will lead the uselessness of bitcoin.

[Winner]

If there was a Solar flare or some sort that damaged the communications of the technology within earth then the whole cryptocurrency thing will be useless. I think if that happens then computers and Bitcoins will be just a thing of the past and the people of the next generation won't know what Bitcoin was. Since this is only a guess there wouldn't be anyone friendly to talk to in that setting I would think because people would be trying to do some disturbing things against each other to survive.

I don't think when all bitcoins has been mined it's the end of bitcoin or it will die soon. The cycle will keep on going and bitcoin isn't going to die that way. Total amount of quantity of bitcoin will have a divide portion for the pricing of it and it will be distributed.

Now we all know bitcoin has a supply limit so after all bitcoins are mined people will start selling their coins as price growth will be low and mostly by 2060 it will be over.

I agree with the banning, it can be dead on that particular country but not for the whole bitcoin economy.

i agree,of course bitcoin will die and cannot traded anymore,its happen when something new and bigger comeout,and its better than bitcoin,maybe less fee or faster transaction. bu no one can predict when the bitcoin will die.

[fabianabank]

I mean, I believe that soon the values ​​will not be more accessible to everyone, think how you valued since its inception, it will be a goldmine

[fabianabank]

the time is now to buy and save, cause i think this:
The price will not be cheaper, if we guard something The market will always have some, which prevents bitcoin from dying

this time even if the problem is coming as the length of time the confirmation, the greater the fee, etc, if the problem is not addressed will certainly impact bad for the future of bitcoin and the life of bitcoin itself

if all goverment from around the world is banned btc , mostly impossible

they say there are still alternative ways on how to use it but what if governments focus on it and really serious on banning btc, and prohibits it strictly like war on drugs in a country. So the use of it will be limited and no one will expose it publicly such as in social media.

It is not just about drugs to where bitcoin is being used. There is a lot more. Banning transaction that are dealing with bitcoin and another illegal item or activity wont really help. It will still go on in cash. They wont even minimize it because not everyone is using bitcoin.
Being forgotten will only be the reason for it to "die" (in OP's definition).

This is a good read
Therefore I conclude, Bitcoin is far from dead.
Thank you for the confirmation
