What if people start using some completely anonymous coin to buy drugs with instead of bitcoin?

bitcoin is perfectly anonymous if used with a mobile phone, you just move on the next location after a transaction

There is already a coin called aliencoin, which I'm sure any aliens out there would prefer to use because it's named after them.  Grin

Should BlackCoin be used by blacks then?
The politically correct use ColoredCoin instead.

Not only is it possible for Bitcoin to go to $0, it is inevitable. Do you think bitcoin will exist in a trillion years time?

Why not? It can change and adapt, whenever humans exists to do so... or aliens Grin

Dollars would be gone centuries before bitcoin goes away.

That's a very good point.

if there is a serious threat to the protocol (hashing algorithm, encryption methods broken, for example), there would eventually be no demand for bitcoins. if no one will buy them from you, the effective price is $0.

That would depend on conflating the conditions of no one remaining in existence to perform a valuation and valuation actually be performed at $0. Like the difference between {} and 0.

It could trade around like a lot of penny stocks.
I am willing to buy $10 worth of bitcoin if it falls to 1cent.  Grin
I am sure there will be lots of people like me, if that ever happens.

yep, lots and lots of support at 1 cent! i will be buying heavily at $1 all the way down to 1 cent if that happens. it'll be worth it, if only for souvenirs! Grin

If it goes to $1, Tim Draper will probably be ready to buy the entire outstanding.  Grin

No, Bitcoin is, and always will be king on these markets. Period.


Oh, yeah, sure. Always. Because trends never change. And innovation never happens.

Every time someone gives away free bitcoins, the price goes to zero for a nanosecond.

I didn't say Bitcoin was SOLELY for illicit purposes, now did I? I implied that AT A WORST CASE SCENARIO, Bitcoin would still have purpose for black market transactions.
So basicly you are saying, it wont go to zero in that case, it will hold in single digits?

They'd have to be worthless to go to 0, so we'd be talking about a complete failure of the technology for whatever reason.  51% attack, bug, unforeseen hack, etc.
Lack of popularity or government bans could cause the price to fall, but no way to 0.

I could see the price of bitcoin going to $0.


I mean, how many people would pay bitcoins for confederate currency?

When I was in Iraq there would be stacks of old Iraqi currency sitting on the shelves. They were practically giving it away.

Fiat currency will be free, no need to pay bitcoins for it. Unless it comes in a cool frame or something...but then you are just paying for the presentation of it.

The going to zero mania is spreading among the speculation forum, but in my opinion they are writing FUD just to buy cheap coins.
