If Bitcoin fails..

[colinistheman]

That money does not need to grow on trees in the future 

Yes, I've learned that money does not grow on trees. It grows in computers.

I learned greed is basic characteristic of social people.

this made me lol. the sad truth is funny sometimes

[FeedTheDolphins]

I do not think that Bitcoin fail. But I know that I learned new interesting things like new ASCI HW, some of the Linux and some trading skills.
I have a different view of encryption and security now.
All thank`s Bitcoin and people around 

The part about Bitcoin failing is more of a thought experiment though.  The OP is pretty much asking what you've got out of your Bitcoin experience, which is a pretty interesting premise.  I guess I'll go with the generic response and say that I got an enthusiasm in investing, but I would never really want an investment job on Wallstreet.

Bitcoin is a recent phenomenon in which the funds are converted from one currency to another currency, and distributed via the internet. A virtual bank, its popularity has increased because there is no physical location where the funds can be entangled in a complicated affair, and there is no way for people to browse the tax funds easily. On the other hand, the money will be virtual (virtual), thereby disappeared with the internet.

bitcoin is a money, you can buy with bitcoin, so you dont affraid if you have much bitcoin because you can use it an any country :/

[CoinCidental]

Even if it fails (which I don't think it will), I'll still be able to walk away with some very basic knowledge economics, trading and cryptography.

What have you learned from Bitcoin?

its 2 damn big to fail now
theres too much at stake

[CoinCidental]

I learned that no currency, crypto or real, can prevail if people who hold it only want to make some quick money by selling them outat high price. If all people in bitcoin community think it this way, bitcoin is merely a gambling.

its already bigger than that .......these pissy  day traders spreading fud will be pushed out soon and market manipulation for the small timers will be a thing of the past ....does gold or silver or anything else  ever fail  just because people are always buying or selling it in the hope of making a profit ?

thats not to say it wont still happen .......but it will take huge amounts of wealth to swing  the price in any direction

the bitcoin network is already the most powerful computer network on the planet ......thats pretty amazing when most people still dont even  know what a bitcoin is

early days yet friend ..........we are strong and getting stronger

[Sindelar1938]

That peer to peer is almost always superior to central systems

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, the first. In some countries, Bitcoin are illegal.

IF bitcoin fails i'll wait for Crypto 2.0
And bitcoin make me learn about economic, trading & cryptography

[thejaytiesto]

Bitcoin will not fail. We are on TV. The Winklevis and old money is coming. Brace yourselves.

There is no reasons to it's fail but if it's fail (i don't think so) don't worry.At least learned about movement of basic trading and cryptography from bitcoin.

I will also be proud of being part of greatest monetary experiment.

[Nerazzura]

Bitcoin failed. Bitcoin value fell close to zero. Can you imagine this scenario? This scenario may seem unlikely, but it's likely that we have to consider it. A plausible reason for this to happen would be a mistake in the Bitcoin protocol or current cryptographic failure in the future. Of course, in this sad scenario 1 milliBTC is $ 0.

[Cypherious]

I learned market investments can be crucial :/

...it will be because at some point, the innovation stopped or otherwise became impossible.

[ChuckBuck]

Since, we're still 200+ points above zero, hundreds of millions of money continuously poured in by angel and VC investors, support by the NYSE, new regulated exchanges popping up...

Yea, if Bitcoin fails, it won't be in 2015, that's for sure.  Would take something truly catastrophic.

[CoinCidental]

...it will be because at some point, the innovation stopped or otherwise became impossible.

the credit card was invented in the 1950's
65 years later we still have them in our pockets

i think btc has plenty of innovation and future yet lol
this is just the tip of the iceberg......

Those were charge cards. Actual credit cards began in the 60's and didn't gain much traction until the 70's. I tend to think of Bitcoin 2.0 as the next generation of credit cards. Credit is suffering because of security. Bitcoin is a steroid injection for security.
