No one knows for sure (with any degree of certainty) what the future holds for bitcoin. Having said that, most will agree that the future is bright.
Here are 10 reasons why Bitcoin is strong today and will continue to grow:
1. Bitcoin introduced blockchain technology for the rest of the world to utilize.
2. Bitcoin itself is a protocol that will continually evolve.
3. Acceptance (Bitcoin is only 10 years old!)
4. Much of the developed world where payment systems that enable instantaneous person-to-person payment are not available, would love to adopt Bitcoin.
5. Volatility will minimize as the public at large becomes less sensitive to everything the media spews out and as more users adopt it.
6. As larger corporations start offering Bitcoin as a payment alternative, smaller companies waiting in the shadows will jump on the bandwagon.
7. The market capitalization of Bitcoin indicates that the currency is now too big to collapse (and is backed by the trust of its users).
8. The buying process of Bitcoin will be made much simpler than it is at present by exchanges, corporations, and developers.
9. Bitcoin will be featured regularly in the remittance world and by travelers and travel agencies alike.
10. Bitcoin is universal and globally recognized as a store of value.
Agree? Disagree? What your thoughts on the growth of bitcoin now and in the future?
The point you have noted are very much valid but as we step into the new decade, majority of these points are weak to take bitcoin into the future. The valid for me is the number one point which talks about the blockchain technology which has been reputed to be a solution that is being applied to various projects across the globe even on a large scale that cannot be covered.
Other points, needs to be stepped up really. For volatility, while this is something that attracts most traders into the crypto space, its keeping multinationals and platforms at bay because buying and selling cannot be done on the basis of chance and on a currency that is not known to have some level of stability.
