Topic: Bitcoin becoming the sovereign currency - page 3. (Read 695 times)

Well expecting surprises might be a good thing but being optimistic all the time calls for being realistic as well. If the value of bitcoin reaches $1 million dollars, the demand for such cryptocurrency would be high and its supply might decrease. Not to mention with that value being that significantly high, investors would actually pull out their investments due to the risk and threat of its value dropping. Its decentralized and high-volatile nature make bitcoin as 'high-risk, high-reward' type of investment wherein you are holding a double-edged sword on your part.


Assuming that bitcoin would be regulated in the future and its value would be less-volatile, the number of investors might pull-out their investments. What makes bitcoin as an opportunity to most investors is its volatile price. Some consider this as a short to mid-term investment since its price may skyrocket at any time- which makes this the perfect tool for risk takers.

Your thinking may become a reality in the future, where the local currency will lose its value and will be replaced by a digital currency such as bitcoin. But initially we also still need a reference paper currency such as dollars or euros to determine the value of bitcoin.

Bitcoin is going to become single largest currency world will ever see in the coming future the growth potential is too huge in the coming days

There were people got lose their bitcoin because they got scammed. Once we are victims it is really hard to on the go into the process of healing. The profit is for everyone but only few that seems are chosen to experience the benefits of bitcoin.

It seems unlikely right now to see bitcoin all of a sudden overtake fiat in terms of daily usage. I think that there is a chance that this scenario will eventually happen, although currently we're definitely not close to that yet.

But you have to understand that bitcoin is a currency. If people feel like that they want to cash out their bitcoins in order to partake in some other venture, they are welcome to do so. People are already using bitcoin to invest in assets, so it's not like it's going to be any drastic changes here.

I don't really understand where your concern is coming from, honestly. There will always be demand for bitcoin, as a store of value. Not always will people want to invest in things or buy things, and even when they do, the bitcoin just ends up on another person's hands. If you're talking about the fact that once adoption hits its peak, there is no more room to grow, then that could be true to some extent. In that scenario, if it ever happens, I would definitely try to seek to invest in other things with more potential since bitcoin's potential by then would be mostly fulfilled, as in your scenario, fiat is already completely worthless. It's completely hypothetical, though.

Have you met people who suffered losses from bitcoin investment? I haven’t. But I saw many who achieved profits.

What bitcoin has done in the past has proven that it is a legitimate place to hold and build wealth (I always like to think of it as gold). the market is ranging between .5-.8 trillion. Experts all have no doubt it will reach 5 trillion, and a lot of experts even say that it could and maybe even will be worth 1 million dollars one day.

So for the purpose of this topic, lets just assume all this is true and here we are 2 years later and bitcoin is lets say 100k.
Everyone is freaking out because they fear the value of the dollar and other paper currencies will go down.

So there has to be a point in this transformation of worldly currency, that the value of bitcoin begins to overall outweigh the dollar in a way that its not worth holding anymore and should be invested into assets because from then on out holding bitcoin would have the value of a lot of dollars but because of that the dollar wouldn't be worth anything...so then at that point what would the bitcoin value even be based upon?

Do you guys think that (assuming everything i say becomes a reality) that it would get to a point where you'd be better off investing your bitcoins into assets because it has no more room to grow since the US dollar (and other paper currencies) at this point has become almost irrelevant?

Just a thought i had today and i thought it was interesting and that i'd share with you guys.

P.S. is there anywhere i can change my user? lol

Bitcoin's volatility is definitely a factor of attraction, but it's actually changing, and will change even more when economical difficulties start knocking on the door, which we aren't all that far away from. Bitcoin is Gold, but then the digital equivalent. It will (and already does) serve as a very easy to access hedge against anything the regular economy exposes you to.

Why would you buy a promise on paper in case of Gold, when you can actually hold billions of Bitcoin without needing to store it elsewhere due to the fact that there is no bulk and whatnot. Buying paper Gold isn't the same as buying actual Gold, and if you buy actual Gold, you need to store it somewhere because you definitely don't want that bulk in your house. It's one of the plenty major advantages Bitcoin has over Gold, and that advantage will translate into capital flowing out of Gold to Bitcoin eventually.

We are in the dumb usage stage. Within 5 years we will see a completely different market and completely different uses of Bitcoin.

Around a few years back people were thinking that bitcoin never reaches 10K and it will be unrealistic. But bitcoin has surprised everyone in just last one year it went up to 20K. This market is not controlled by any institution or government so anything can happen either it can reach to 1 Million or similarly it can go down as well. As a crypto investor, we should be always ready to receive surprises from this market.

Bitcoin, much like any other crypto currency, is an investment in itself. But then again, if the question is growth, once BTC achieved a stable value then it always has room to grow. Plus it has many competitors such as a long list of alt coins out there. Projects will be built around it and of course demands for it will increase. Either way, there is always an improvement.
