Not gonna happen. Everyday facebook grows making millions and millions without making a decrease of their worth. Bitcoin dove a couple of times in a month.
Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

The name Bitcoin might become bigger than facebook but the people that invest in it might drop some because of the volatility of the market.

Volatility will decrease when volume increases. As more people demand it, volatility will go down (and price up).

Well it really depends on what you mean by 'bigger'. If you're referring to adoption (the number of people that uses Bitcoin) then sure, in some years I can totally see Bitcoin being overwhelmingly bigger than Facebook. Bitcoin is just money and can be used by everyone whereas FB will only ever appeal to a small portion of the world.

Facebook is already being challenged for market share of new users from Twitter, Instagram, whatsapp, snapchat. http://bgr.com/2014/01/16/facebook-teens-leaving-service-11-million/
Social media can change quickly. Facebook could end up looking like old college yearbooks.

Suppose it will go like that, what happens next? What happens to the people that are using FB?

not possible. But if in a year facebook will drop its popularity rate then bitcoin will be much bigger. but as long as fb is still working great, there will be no competition.

Couldnt happen. When facebook is gone and other surfaces it will still be bigger than bitcoin. Maybe it (bitcoin) will be bigger than fb in some other countries but not all over the world.

So bitcoin in terms of investors and investment will beat facebook in few years.

I believe Bitcoin will have a larger impact than Facebook when all is said and done: economically, sociopolitically, philanthropically etc...just that we're still several years from seeing this come to fruition.  When it does reach mass network effect, Bitcoin can be used for elections and the voting process, used for large scale charitable movements, used for large scale fundraising for a grass roots cause, used as a global payment and money transmitter and remitter.  There's some signs of this happening, but not quite the scale I'm talking about.

Facebook is global, is the largest multinational social media website, is on practically every PC, MAC, phone, tablet, and portable device.

Bitcoin can and I believe will get there, but to dethrone Facebook, will take a truly global revolution in the way everyone sees it.  Someone mentions Facebook, you already know what that person is talking about.  "Oh that's the site where you see everyone's vacation pictures".  "Everyone shares their favorite pages and likes and dislikes and pokes with imaginary gifts, before going on their virtual farm".  "Everyone at school is on it, we see their spring break pics all the time."  "Aww, isn't that cutest baby ever, look at the video of her crawl!"

Bitcoin still isn't common speak, still isn't on that level where a 9 or 10 year old can describe pretty much what it's all about.  If we get there, it'll be once we have soccer mom's talking about their Bitcoin savings, several Mom and Pop stores selling everything in the store in Bitcoin, and the immigrant worker working hard sending money back home to Central America, South America, Europe, Asia etc in Bitcoin....we still have a ways to go.

Bitcoin has potential to be used by more people than Facebook. Money uses everyone but not everyone need Facebook Smiley

While Bitcoin has many advantages over fiat (on internet), we have to see if Bitcoin become preffered way to use money on internet.

Facebook actually owns instagram so any "market share" taken by instagram is still had by facebook. I believe the same is true for whsatsapp as well.

And money is much more relevant than that stupid website. Widely using bitcoin would create a lot of wealth, because of its advantages over fiat money. It's much more efficient, secure, etc.
