probably not , because the halving block reward is getting closer and closer which should be by the end of the next year , so there is a huge chance that the price will rise like hell . maybe multiply if the demand stays the same . and if it rise it will be better .

Everyday we see more people are becoming familiar with bitcoin and it will not die also I think the less fluctuation is more useful for bitcoin since it can attract more investing.

I dont think there are many company that use bitcoin as their payment, may be some of them use bitcoin but mostly they dont even care about bitcoin problems since they strong in fiat. If bitcoin has been used by many company I am sure the price will go to the moon in next year and everybody will start to invest in bitcoin for sure

You saw how IBM used it for advertising their Cloud services in Brazil. Lot of projects are worked on and lots are already alive. But as normal they dont attract as much interest as they would 2 years ago.

One important reason they do not use it is the fluctuations of bitcoin prices, so they do not want to sell something in 500$ and by decreasing price their bitcoin becomes 400$, I think that's why stagnant state is good for developing bitcoin.

Didn't quite get what are you talking about. You think IBM is worried about Bitcoin price fluctuation? They probably woudn't notice price change even if Bitcoin would've gotten to $1000.

Most companies tend to avoid fluctuations. Companies will sell most of their BTC holding if price were to drop significantly If bitcoin has been used by many company I am sure the price will go to the moon in next year and everybody will start to invest in bitcoin for sure
All big companies are aware of Bitcoin and will use it as it will fit them.
Most companies do aware of it but the fact is that BTC is not actually usefull in most of the companies sale as most people still dont have any knowledge yet of BTC . This will hinder their sale if they were to only accept BTC, that is why most companies that accept BTC accept FIAT as well, this makes BTC not usefull as things could be purchase with FIAT rather than BTC. Also that Microsoft do accept BTC for some sale but it has yet make any significant effect so it is not a guarantee that if a big company was to accept BTC then it will make a significant effect

Time will come, we are just still 10+ years from that tho. Some have found a niche and are making great BTC only, namely amagimetals, they went BTC only and the business is going smooth.

But with the acceptance from them bitcoin price will be sure going higher than usual and about bitcoin knowledge they can get it with the time goes by. That means their company can either choose to pay them with fiat or bitcoin. That should be work by then I think it will be easy to make Microsoft to take that thing, but there are some people that wont believe it because of lacking information about bitcoin, thats why they need to accept it and learn with the time goes by

I think you are talking about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LIX1ot9peIIt was great, 50000 USD giveaway, basically 234 BTC giveaway, pretty crazy. Big opportunity to get 1 BTC as a newbie if you were there.

Actually good thing about famous companies accepting BTC is that it serve as a proof that BTC is not dead yet ( which is a common thought to most people ) People tend to avoid things that are not real , in this case it will be "virtual" . Most people actually aware of BTC but they lost interest of it because they tend to think that this is not real and perhaps something like "poker chip/play money"

I don't believe bitcoin is dead because the technology will always pave the way for new ideas but it certainly has lost the buzz and lustre it had before this year broke out. I think there is competition also emerging from new digital coins that might also be tough to compete with in the future but it isn't dead not at the moment just perhaps not very profitable to mine as it used to be in the early days.
Same here. I don't think it is dead or dying in the coming future and yes as you said bitcoin will definitely face the competition from the new entrants in coming future but it will not make it dead the only thing we need is the more usage of bitcoin from the people and the adoption from society.
