Have you ever been concerned about Bitcoin's longevity in the mainstream world as a decentralized cryptocurrency? While BTC has been going strong since 2009, there exist the possibility that it could vanish from existence sometime in the future. After all, we know that nothing lasts forever.

My guess is that once governments start circulating their own digital currencies, they will try to crackdown on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as we know them. It's no secret that the entire crypto space is largely dependent on centralized infrastructure (centralized exchanges, centralized wallet services, etc). People will not want to use something that's considered "illegal" by worldwide governments. While it'll still be possible to continue using Bitcoin regardless of government bans, regulations, etc, not many people will support it (only libertarians, geeks, anarchists, etc.). By that time, it'll be nearly impossible to get access to Bitcoin with Fiat currency or even exchange Bitcoin to Fiat (as the government crackdown will make all centralized exchanges to cease their operations).

Considering that governments want to stay in power, they'll do anything to force people to use their Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) instead of any other alternative payment system. If that happens, Bitcoin will be doomed.

Do you think that we're close for Bitcoin's End Game to happen? Will it ever happen? What are your thoughts? Huh
I am also concerned that this time will come in the future, knowing that most of the governments wants to have a control over the digital assets that will be use in their respected country. Once the digital payment will fully replace fiat someday, there is a big chance that what you have said will turn into reality.

Once almost all the governments will unite in banning or exchange crypto currencies into their local digital currency, the crypto users will surely face difficulty in cashing out their money from crypto currencies. Once it will happen, the era of crypto currencies will likely to fade slowly but if all the governments will not prohibit the usage of crypto currencies then crypto will be part in the future modernization.

Many people right now are using the cryptocurrency for their transactions because we all know that the crypto is one of the fastest and trusted transaction that's why many people today now are using this to transfer their funds to make more earning and today there are some countries accepting the use of it and that was a great news to all of us because the market price of the bitcoin will go up rapidly again because they are now allowing to use of it, still there are some countries does not want to accept the use of bitcoin because they are afraid all the things may happen with the use of it because they think it is not secured. But to the other country allowed it there are some instance because they need to limit all of the transactions to avoid having a large amount of data and funds transfer to an unknown device or user, still, it was huge if the bitcoin will end soon, many people will affect on that and their earnings. We are looking forward to making more profit with the use of bitcoin and I think it is not the end we are just heading to the future.

One thing is sure that there is no endgame for Bitcoin. And if there is, then we are The Avengers. Everyone thinks the Governments are inevitable, like Thanos but we have The Hulk.. Wink

Bitcoin's increasing usage and adoption through regulation has already led it to giving shape to a knowledge based economy in developed countries and amongst the more tech savvy users. I think this will continue as it is impossible to stop the idea of every person being his own bank.

Let's be frank to ourselves, the government of the world have some stash of Bitcoin on their confers like that of the United States of America, though they often go by auctions in mist cases. How can someone who have tasted a nice food turn down the same food just because of envy? Though its possible but very rare to happen.

My take is: Bitcoin will stay with the world and be use for reserve for all potential government in the future. Banning Bitcoin will add more injuries to the current crisis on world economy. Am not seeing the possibility of Bitcoin abandonment.
And why would the countries that adopted bitcoin will throw the opportunity they have in this market?and just recently Bitcoin is unbanned in India in which one to the biggest country that people invested in this market.

Counting South Korea also now boarding Bitcoin  to their economy so we are seeing much bigger support this coming days.
 
Bitcoin will continue to grow and will never die even how many countries are denying this.

What does one have to do with the other??

Governments don't seem to care much about BTC. They are regulating it like a commodity and regulating the shit tokens like securities i.e. stocks. At the end of the day Bitcoin will probably end up like any other Wall Street traded commodity. Gold, platinum, crude oil, coffee, and so on and so forth.

I agree that we do not know what may happen but if the government is wanting to drop Bitcoin down, I guess they've done that earlier and never letting Bitcoin exist longer than 4 to 6 years.

I guess we will be really seeing Bitcoin side by side with each country's digital currencies. Though I don't see Bitcoin being a payment method but a asset with a huge price in the future. With digital currency as a mainstream currency, Bitcoin will be used and transactions will explode and that might be the reason why government would want to take down Bitcoin. We have technologies that can or might take down the system, saying this, still, we don't know what can happen.

I guess bitcoin will not going end soon because bitcoin still not too popular in all countries and we know that not all countries accept bitcoin, so bitcoin still have a chance to grow more than now. Related to the government, we don't know what will they do with bitcoin, and if they want to launch their own crypto, we also don't know what will happen later. Bitcoin can get ban from the government, and that will easy for them to do that, but I am not sure if they really want to ban bitcoin.

If they force people to use their currency still, I think that will be a big problem in their country, especially if their people know and use bitcoin personally. There will be a demonstration from people that will happen in that country because they will reject their government not to use bitcoin.

But that is only a possibility of what might happen, and we don't know for sure.

If the governments around the world really want to ban and destroy Bitcoin,then what the hell are they waiting for?I don't think that's the case.Some countries have projects about central bank cryptocurrencies but there's no result and everything is in the very beginning.In most countries,bitcoin is considered a "digital asset".It's not legal tender and an actual currency,but you can trade it.
This topic has been discussed 100 times before.Nobody knows what will happen and nobody can predict the future.I think that bitcoin will survive a global ban,but the BTC price will fall below 1K USD and BTC will be used only in the darknet marketplaces.

As long as there are men who tend to personal freedom and therefore also to financial bitcoin will not die. If men all became unconscious slaves of the system, then bitcoin would cease to be used.
And with this for sure Bitcoin will never die ,because for the past 10 years people entering this market to fin financial freedom and luckily they found it here.
so why would ending comes when there are still seekers outside this market?
and also remember that we are here because of this freedom and until now we are holding our bitcoin in our wallet and no plan going back to old fashion way of banking.

this is not true. the fact that people trade on exchanges and some newcomers use centralized custodial wallets doesn't mean bitcoin relies on centralized infrastructure!
and thins like centralized exchanges are popular and used because they are most convenient right now compared to the alternative and since there is no problem in using them, people don't bother working on any alternatives.

last time i checked there was no such thing as "worldwide government"!

Quote

this would have been true if such theoretical ban came back in 2008 to 2009 not in 2020-2030+ that a very large number of people have already adopted bitcoin and a million dollar industry has been built because of bitcoin.
at this point it is like talking about government banning usage of the internet!

Bitcoin users isn't even 10% of the world's population and you are already thinking of how Bitcoin will end and how the government will create their own digital currency to fight Bitcoin. Let's be honest here, the leading government isn't seeing Bitcoin as a threat right now but as an opportunity that will help their own economy prosper. Look at how Japan us utilizing Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. It's amazing how Bitcoin is getting more used than it was before. Bitcoin will not end for a very long time.

If the society permits themselves to be defeated by the same system, then yes.

People have now been asking questions about the systems a lot more than ever, and if that is not an indication of the growing doubt and lack of trust us people have towards our governments then I don't know what is. We might even reach to a point where civil unrest would be seen everywhere and anywhere if the government and the banks continues to oppress those who.cannot stand up and fend for themselves. Also, this might even prove a strong need for bitcoin should CBDCs or whatever exists, as the latter can obviously be manipulated to the governments specifications as they see fit.

We're yet to see global acceptance of bitcoin, but also digital currencies issued by central banks are also miles away from seeing public acceptance, too.

No I don't believe that Bitcoin is going to end soon and I believe that it would last for long.
Crypto is being legalized in some country and there are so many business that is already accepting it,
So I don't think that it would be gone soon or if it will ever end then I think it would be because of a new crypto has taken over it but for now I don't think that there would be a crypto that could replace it.

Honestly, never thought about it could vanish instantly but I'm on a point where I'll just accept everything that will happen the moment I stayed exposed to cryptocurrency. If Bitcoin or the crypto doesn't last then who are we to control it, as you said nothing lasts forever so let's just enjoy what it has to offer nowadays.

So far I can see a positive outlook as there is recent news about different countries unbanning Bitcoin and even legalizing them, so let us just wait and see and enjoy the rollercoaster ride of crypto.

Indeed this may also be considered a possibility considering its scarce supply. I think for Bitcoin to become truly adopted and be used as global payment. The current system and the government that's controlling the paper money should be destroyed or should cease to exist then we could see tons of people move to Cryptocurrency. Cause only in a crisis will people will start migrating to alternatives.

No I think it is too far from happening,
No I don't believe that nothing last forever did Gold ever lose value? Did Fiat lose value?
Ever since they were created they didn't lose value and up till now we are still using them.

In my opinion, we are still very far from bitcoin's end. It is true, that someday, in the future, bitcoin may be obsolete because of maybe another advanced technology that will be invented. But for now, I don't see it coming for the next 10 years.


That technology is already in the works and is quantum computing. Until that rolls around we'll be seeing regular cryptos as we've seen it up until now. And I think until such tech or maybe something that really is so multi purpose that can take over Bitcoin, I don't see another reason for a big flip like that at least not in the next few years

Let's not forget the fact that nowadays, the Governments are becoming Bitcoin-friendly recently. like, for example, the lifting of the ban by the central bank of India and the promotion made by the Chinese President. This is the indication that they are not going to shut it down, instead, they let it join with their plan on making their own digital currency. they may be a plan to shut down some other coins, but they will have a hard time shutting down bitcoin for over 10 years. that's why they beginning to adopt it now instead of totally banning it.

Bitcoin's value is in its principles, trust earned, ledger and of course its users. Those can be ported to new and exotic systems in the future. By the time we're vegetables it's possible there'll be something called Bitcoin that recognises today's private keys but it won't have any resemblance to what we're using now.
