How many kilos of sugar do you think you will be able to buy with 1 BTC in 2045? What is your best guess? Today you buy some 600 Kg of sugar with 1 BTC... http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/groceries/index.jsp?bmUID=1389296816517 |
{ Imagine a sequence of bits generated from the first decimal place of the square roots of whole integers that are irrational numbers. If the decimal falls between 0 and 5, it's considered bit 0, and if it falls between 5 and 10, it's considered bit 1. This sequence from a simple integer count of contiguous irrationals and their logical decimal expansion of the first decimal place is called the 'main irrational stream.' Our goal is to design a physical and optical computing system system that can detect when this stream starts matching a specific pattern of a given size of bits. bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=166760.0 } Satoshi did use a friend class in C++ and put a comment on the code saying: "This is why people hate C++".

I think substantially more, because sugar will be considered a narcotic in most Western countries.  |

I'm going to say 178 667 kg of sugar in the year 2045 with one bitcoin. This is only true if btc continues to be the dominant cryptocurrency which is anyone's guess in 31 years.

I think by the time we reach 2045, there won't be any sugar left in the world. Sugar will have been totally been replaced by designer sweeteners that are not as damaging to your health. Maybe sugar will still be grown as a source for fuel, bio ethanol, like they do big scale in Brasil, but chanches are even that will be obolete by 2045, because we should have cracked hydrogen fusion energy by that time.

0 (zero). SHA-256 will be cracked much sooner than 2045.

Nuh-uh... according to the TV show Almost Human, set in the 2100s, bitcoin will still be around. |

I thought you couldn't crack SHA-256 even if you had all the energy of the Sun? My prediction is: 1 Kg Sugar = 0.001 BTC in year 2045. Pure sugar will have been declared an illegal substance and you will not be able to buy it. In 2045, a bitcoin will be worth at least 1 million dollars. Put it together and I come up with the above numbers. |
