I think this will stay for ever.
It's now already more than 5 years and still alive, why should it stop in the (near) future.
The price will go up and down, but that is with everything on the market so.
Some other coins will disappear, but bitcoin will stay forever i think.

So, all the coins will eventually be mined, right? (What year was it again? I forgot...) And the only incentive to mine will be the fees.
How much would the fees be? They must be rather big to give enough incentive to mine...

Approximately 2141 when last fraction of bitcoin reward hits the chain... After that purely transaction fees. @ that time fees are most likely to be mandatory and Bitcoin will have much higher conversion value.


but it will continue to be in existence even after that. So will last much more.

Have a doubt we still be needing him at that time.

How Long Will Bitcoin Endure?

How long?
How long can it hold its price?
How long can it stand its value?
Is the end near?
Or will it just be remembered in the statue?


It will last till 2140 when all the coins are mined then probably die , we can't see that tho , since we will be all dead by then
i am sure by then there will be powerful machines to mine bitcoin easily no matter the difficulty.

How long does it take to "get to the moon"?

I hope it lasts that long with that much success.

There will allways be mining the fees, and it will probably still be profitable, believing that the price should be much higher.
I doubt fees will be mandatory, because once again, if the price becomes insane, even a fraction of bitcoin for fees would be too much.
I believe bitcoin will last for a long time, but also, that it will be replaced by something better in the future, or it will itself be dramaticaly changed to be better.

The are too many big players and too much money involved to have Bitcoin disappear.

I guess it will last for more 4-5 years but I am not sure if it will have a bright future as of now. It has definitely gained more popularity over these years but it would be good if it can last for longer than 5 years  Smiley

There's no such thing as a post-bitcoin world. It's either bitcoin or apocalypse.
If Bitcoin fails it means we either failed to find a system that's post-fiat or another crypto got success.

Is the end near?

bitcoin will exists as long as i live as i will always have the blockchain.

The blockchain won't be very useful if the miners cease and you're the only person using it. The blockchain will slowly fizzle away if something superior comes along.

Bitcoin analysts says that Bitcoin price will have an imminent slump in days to come.
I see these kinds of posts on a regular basis, and I have to wonder whether any of the posters actually believe it, or are just trolling/pumping/dumping.

On the remote possibility that you actually believe what you're posting, let me point out that if any "analyst" could accurately predict that the price was going to go up or down, they would become very rich very quick.  The price is what the price is, and reflects the sum total of all expectations of rise/fall. 

Some are trolling, some are just niave, and some are just looking for any sort of clues about what will happen.

Until the internet is gone. There is no reason why bitcoin won't last or be around. Its value is unpredictable  but it will continue to be widely used. There was a document someone had posted on here where a gentleman suggested that bitcoin could potentially see 50 million users on the network by the end of 2015.



Again I think the only way bitcoin will die is if something else comes along that is far better and people will abandon bitcoin en mass.

Forever until me die  Grin Grin
