We lose all bitcoins ((

[DeadJDona]

Good day, all.

I'm a newbie and want to ask a theoretical question

What is we loose ALL bitcoins? Say 1% of users lost their wallets with some sum on it. (hdd crash, etc)

So in 10 years we lose ~10% of all money

100 years => no money?


And the variation of this - wahat if BGates or Brinn or somebody just buy all coins?
Okay, he got 10M, others got nothing

WHAT TO DO?

You can't buy all the coins because they aren't all for sale.

And you're going to make some people very very rich doing that.

Yeah. If you are willing to pay as much as possible to get coins, you will be broke very soon.

if one person sits on ALL the bitcoins i would guess they would loose all their value as no one is able to trade them rendering the one person bankrupt like everyone else
