I just made a thread the other day making a $10,000,000 prediction in 10 years:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4547470.msg41007694#msg41007694

It could be that we have to wait until 2030 but things should start shaping up in 2028 to see massive figures, and we would also should have getting rid of most of the scamcoins so Bitcoin would get all their marketcaps and absorb it making the price higher.

It's not as easy as you think it is. Crypto due to its decentralized nature will always lag behind centralized currency incentives when it comes to usability.

The average joes are perfectly happy with how things work already; what incentive is there for them to shift over to pay with crypto currencies? They don't care about decentralization, they don't care about financial institutions isolating and controlling their finances, etc. They just want to settle payments instantly and without the hassle of keeping an eye on what the value of their currency at that specific time is.

I think this is actually a good thing. Bitcoin's blockchain would literally explode in size if we would ever get to experience mass usage, even with LN. The less mass usage Bitcoin enjoys, the longer people at home can run their nodes without having to worry about disk space upgrades.

If Bitcoin would be the ultimate alternative currency, governments years ago would have done everything to ban the crap out of it. No mass currency usage = freedom for Bitcoin to grow.

I do not really expect that to happen, because I see bitcoin as an investment medium. but I still hope the bitcoin exchange becomes easier. and become a legitimate exchange medium along with fiat currency.

I predict that bitcoin will continue to grow and have a market share that will increase. I am optimistic that bitcoin can provide a very good development, nowadays that it can be said the number of users of digital currency and its specialty bitcoin has begun to increase. Bitcoin has also started to be accepted in some places, although it is still relatively small but I think that is enough to convince the public. Bitcoin will have its own users and in the future we will start a new era in the global financial system.

Well i think it's going to be different from what it is now. 10 years is a long time and enough for the market and coins to evolve. Bitcoin may not even be the top coin if it's still relevant at that time. I'm sure one alt will break away in the future, probably enough to unseat btc

As the days pass, cryptocurrencies will lose one of its most essential features: decentralization.
Many people are ready to sacrifice decentralization in facing for the easy to buy/sell bitcoin.
I expect the price to stabilize and an upward trend in the coming years.
will reduces the high hopes of 200,000 dollars to 20,000 dollars

I think we will see a lot of things being done using smart contracts. We will not have so many middle mens for everything related to money. Because trust will be on the code and on blockchains not on persons or papers. Sell your house, your car, buy food. Everything related to the commerce will use some kind of smart contracts.

[berrygood]

In tean years many things related to blockchain technology and tokens will happen but for bitcoin things will not change much it will be around $1M in 2028 

[aoluain]

I figure it to be valued much much higher in 10 years because of some very positive
and factual points like there will be 2 halvings in in the next 10 years and there will
be further adoption. The longer Bitcoin and legitimate crypto survive the harder it
will be to damage it with FUD and fake news which should result in fewer people
selling out.

The worst scenario will be the situation nowadays, not too much users. For blockchain, it will be implemented everywhere, for cryptocurrencies, i expect to be a surge in its usage but I think that many countries will launch its own local cryptocurrency for a cashless society.

the problems that bitcoin had last year (block size drama, fork drama, high fee drama and spam attack) has opened up room for altcoins to attract a lot of investors but now that the problems have been fixed and the drama has almost gone away that room is being taken away and altcoins are losing all the attractiveness that they had. specially since people used them and got disappointed when they encountered their issues.

bitcoin will be a very good future because bitcoin really helps not in terms of transactions but the economy despite the many shortcomings and will beat the conventional currency but this will be the era of future developments.

Bitcoins will be always always profitable because no matter how hard it drops in the market , people will always have faith and they will invest a huge amount which will make the price to pump again.

The world will finally have a single currency, the Internet will have a single currency. I personally believe it will be Bitcoin. The use of Bitcoin blockchain technology is wide. Some states want to use blockchain technology in new payment systems to better protect user information.
Blockchain unlocks new opportunities in finance, and has such an incredible potential for a decentralized financial system that does not pay inflation. This is my opinion on the Bitcoin technology in the future. And where will the prize be in 10 years?
The price of cryptocurrencies will rise in a slow pace and a similar year 2017 will be repeated. Bitcoin can reach $ 100,000.

10 years IMO is a small time-frame to witness a big overhaul in the financial system. It took us centuries before we parted with our dear gold as a medium of exchange, and with the government who has an established control over finances and the people, it'll be hard for cryptocurrencies to take over. Probably it will co-exist with fiat, just like fiat with gold and other precious metals, but that's it; no overhauling of the system, just an 'innovation' from its state--transitioning to physical to digital but still mandated and controlled by the government.

I do not see bitcoin only as a speculative asset. I like the idea of bitcoin being used as a currency. I hope that in ten years bitcoin will be accepted in all online stores. But this will require upgrading the bitcoin payment verification system. Therefore, consensus between miners and users must be reached.
