With bitcoin taking a hit lately, its important to remember the bigger picture and its overall promise. Here are my thoughts on why bitcoin is here to stay, and why it's going to be huge:

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

It is a good argument and I am all for bitcoins success, but I don't think it will last forever in that another coin will take over that has better properties.  There are constant examples in technology how the initial leader with what seemed a huge lead was over taken by an upstart with a better model.  And while bitcoin is gaining widespread adaption, it still has nearly a 0% market share.  Lots of time and room for a challenger to overtake still yet.

Sure it is a speculation!
All talks about bitcoin future are speculations Cheesy

We cannot say nothing for sure. Isn't ? (for english mates: Innit? xD)

but author of this article did very good job as he did research informations and dig inside of them.

Smiley as you know.

Even if I don't agree with everything what he wrote, it was very interesting at all.

Cheers!

Of course Bitcoin is here to stay. Once the Emperor takes over, Bitcoin will be renamed to "Credits". And he needs them to build a spacestation as huge as the moon. And he will name it "Planetkiller".
