How long could bitcoin last?

[nagobinga]

In my opinion, bitcoin will end in 2050 and will be a lot of enthusiasts as it is getting popular and getting better from year to year.

I think bitcoin will last until nobody buys it again, and nobody uses it. But now there are still many who use bitcoin even increases.

[attentionSicker]

As long as there is users of Bitcoin, and as long as Internet connection is available, I think Bitcoin will last for many years and also it will become even more famous and used worldwide. The price will increase surely and that's will encourage so many people to deal with Bitcoin in the future.

I agree, and in addition to that, as long as there is a huge need of bitcoin on online market for faster transactions, there's no reason to stop it. Bitcoin may be fully functional in the near future.

As of right now, the bitcoin price is expected to keep going up in the next 20 years. But can it last that long? I believe it's possible. But can't it crash at a random time? Like the price going down hard.

The life of bitcoin depends on the trust of the people. Bitcoin is basically based on trust. Right now people are trusting bitcoin and so there is nothing really worth worrying. Investors and miners have always been behind the success of bitcoin. Right now even large names and banks are also rooting for the further rising of bitcoin's price. There is still no death of this invention in sight.

Compared to new ICOs, and new alt coins, Bitcoin is old technology. There are newer cryptocurrencies that have better tech and faster transaction times, and better features. Although Bitcoin might have some problems with a congested blockchain and a bigger fee for transaction now. Bitcoin won't last forever, that is for sure, but for 20-30 years, I think that Bitcoin could survive that long. I don't think that fiat currencies will over take Bitcoin but instead, other altcoins or icos would overtake Bitcoin.

A lot of countries have legalized Bitcoin these days, and it seems like every week a new country is hopping on the bandwagon. This week it was South Korea, and last week it was India. Bitcoin may be going mainstream soon.

No one can predict the life span of bitcoin in the market but as long as many users invest and used bitcoin it will continue to circulate in the market. If the value of bitcoin maintain in a good position for sure many will be interested in investing and more people will be using it...who knows maybe bitcoin will replace the currency we are using now and became the only currency in the world  ...but still it's unpredictable and we can only hold for that hope...

Bitcoin might live longer than I do. Since it is still in its early days, and development is an ongoing thing, chances are it will be able to weather storms and obstacles and be adopted by more countries, or become an investment vehicle renowned the world over. Nice to think about the price 30 or 50 years from now.

yes bitcoin could last if there are still people who use bitcoin and it's price is high or expensive. if the government decided to shutdown bitcoin maybe that's the last thing that you will use bitcoin, so i hope that won't happen. i hope bitcoin will be legalize by the government so that it's price started to be stable.

I believe bitcoin will live long like few decades because this kind of business gives opportunity to esrn money even you are in home only and I think those people earn a lot of profit or money in bitcoin did not want bitcoin decrease or die so they still buying bitcoin so the price will becomr stable and many people for sure earn a lot of money if bitcoin live long and bitcoin will help many people in the future.

Already bitcoin has face d many critical issues like BU,etc and it still survives.Despite actions taken by governments and banks to destroy bitcoin,still it exists.I hope that it would exist for long time giving financial freedom to thousands of people.But it has to overcome the quantum computing which is expected to be introduced after twenty years.

[AmiranAbdul]

I believe that in the next 20 years bitcoin will still exist and develop. Now many people do not know about it and for this it takes a long time to become a resident of the whole population.

As long as there is internet, there's bitcoin. People do not spend bitcoin, hence convert it to a currency they have then spend the cash for buying or paying products and services. The bitcoin then returns again to the internet, waiting to be earned by others and the cycle goes on and on

[Kronos21]

The popularity of bitcoin is growing is true, but that's not a guarantee that bitcoin price will grow steadily. When your earnings in bitcoins the growth rates is not a problem, but when you need to buy bitcoin for Fiat, you just might not have that amount of money and it can stop the growth of prices.

[Inkdatar]

As long there is users bitcoin will exists in the upcoming years. Though we cannot predict what may be the outcome of bitcoin we can tell it has a future. It has a future in the sense that it has a big impact to users with its benefits offer.

I agree with that because every currency are long lasting and as I can see with the bitcoin the bitcoin, the bitcoin has a big future because I think this is the future of the currency the digital one because the change is inevitable and I hope that bitcoin will continue to pump after the segwit I hope it will be a successful one.

It is indeed hard to speculate that how long Bitcoin will stay. But unless a better technology than Blockchain is invented, Bitcoin will remain safe. Bitcoin is strong not only because of its use cases but also because of its underlying technology. Blockchain is like a revolution so does the Bitcoin. For now I don't see any indicator of threat to Bitcoin. But future is unpredictable.

NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING goes up in a straight line forever. Remember this.

[omonuyak]

The cryptocurrency market of which bitcoin is a pioneer are the currencies of this generation and next. Bitcoin will raise in values and break the strength of fiat currencies. We can see how the advert of cryptocurrency has helped shaping the future of money and because of this either it fell in values with speed or not we can relay on it acceptability worldwide to see that it will continue rising for now.

There is no specific date until when will bitcoin be here.  For me it will last up to the end of time.  There would be no expiration with bitcoins.  The factor always is the most important one, computer, internet collection, and most importantly the curioisity.  As long as everyone supports bitcoin it will never end.

Definitely, No one knows until when will bitcoin last. We can only assume, as what are we experiencing right now, I can say that it'll be more years to come for our community here. The emerge of BTC to people became faster and bigger. There are more people nowadays that knows about what Bitcoin is. For this instance, It'll be more investors that'll invest to Bitcoin which is good for Bitcoin community. Bitcoin is not even on its peak, so In my opinion it'll be a long way for all of us here.

Your question was not complete or it is not referring into specific question. I don't know if your asking about the existence of bitcoin or asking about the price value of bitcoin. But let me answer them both, as long as there is bitcoin community in this industry bitcoin would last forever and also the value of bitcoin continuously growing it will really last.
