If all the government decides to declare bitcoin a forbidden coin to use and there making it a crime with high capital punishment for illicit users , and then maybe adopts another coin as legal.
the ban on the use of bitcoin by some countries will not destroy bitcoin, because bitcoin is global and cannot be limited by some countries. so the biggest possibility that makes bitcoin worthless is the destruction of internet connections around the world.

It could happen only on the condition that no country accepts it and make it ban in their respective country. So this will discourage the people to use it and hardly anyone would be using which will make this coin worthless on a greater extent.
bitcoin can be worthless if the request for bitcoin no longer exists, or if the internet connection around the world dies and maybe if the world goes on a nuclear war that causes all internal connections in the world to be destroyed. but all these possibilities are very small to be able to happen, so bitcoin will probably remain in a very long time. 
All that matters is how much someone is willing to pay for something. Bitcoin may be useless for someone but incredibly useful for someone without a bank.
I laugh at all the people that call bitcoin worthless but I'm sure they wouldn't say no to some free bitcoins if some were given to them.
Right.We all have different views towards bitcoin and for me,i never think of bitcoin becoming worthless today and even in the years to come.Bitcoin may have lot of negative impact for those people who don't like it but there are also thousands of people who have benefited bitcoin and have been very useful in their own lives.Bitcoin will not lose its value but instead,it will bound to a more development and may lead to a mass adoption in the future. I laugh at all the people that call bitcoin worthless but I'm sure they wouldn't say no to some free bitcoins if some were given to them.

so is it possible that bitcoin can become worthless
I will just answer with what the biggest bears I've heard on BTC say, which is that BTC will likely hold a base worth of $100 or so even at worst. Its a reliable token and secure with a network of confirmation, even those who dislike the whole idea acknowledge this will mean it continues in some use no matter what
Currency failure generally occurs due to the type of hyperinflation, and there is always the potential for technical failure, currency competition, political issues and so on. As the main basic rule, there is no currency that can be considered very safe from failure and difficult times. so is it possible that bitcoin can become worthless?
in my opinion bitcoin or crypto currency is worthless maybe it could happen with the prohibition of the government in one country to access crypto currencies and there is no interest and more investors who use the crypto currency
Yes it's possible for bitcoin to become worthless, if someday the bitcoin price dropped to under $10, i'm sure people will stop using bitcoin anymore.
Are you sure about that? bitcoin still has value if it ever goes down to $10. And you know what? people will not stop using it because the demand will rise and its going to be an opportunity for everyone to avail cheaper bitcoins.
I think it's very impossible for a bitcoin to have a price value of 10$ unless something there's a replacement. Even the price value of bitcoin is 10$, most of the people will invest a lot on it but I don't think they will have a bigger profit because it will only happen when the era of bitcoin will come to an end. Basically, it will be non-sense if they buy a lot of bitcoin when it becomes cheaper, I know there's something huge that will come and replace it.

Anything can become worthless, fiat, bitcoin, gold etc. Its just the chances are less with certain things (which I think btc falls in that small chance category.)
I think this never will happen, bitcoin is a new way to store secure your investment, and in future bitcoin will be used for a lot of things, and will worth much, much more then is now.
I think if everyone thinks bitcoin is a coin that fails and is worthless then bitcoin is no longer valuable, but is it possible with so many people who believe in bitcoin. I think more about bitcoin will still be the main one.
All that matters is how much someone is willing to pay for something. Bitcoin may be useless for someone but incredibly useful for someone without a bank.

yep it possible to become useless , when bitcoin get hacked or something like bug/error on the script that make you get lot of bitcoin while mining it
everything might happen without our expectations. especially if the bitcoin is already worthless, it is likely that the bitcoin enthusiasts will certainly back down. but personally I still believe that the development of bitcoin will continue to progress, even though it takes time.

Trust is lost and many people talk badly, negative news where it will be the beginning of a downward trend of public trust in bitcoin, and make them not invest and ultimately have no value
maybe,, it can be worthless. as time go by, people will find new technology. and maybe, someday, they will find new like currency so bitcoin will be replaced by that one, it can be new coin or something new.
the different price in a day can make it worthless. people will find new coin that have high probability's advantages.
Even when better technology strike the market, it won't affect the growth of bitcoin. In someone's perspective the tech behind ethereum is much more progressive than bitcoin's. But, till date we haven't got any defeat of bitcoin through the same. In this way bitcoin usage will continue even when more advanced technologies exists.the different price in a day can make it worthless. people will find new coin that have high probability's advantages.
What most of the the people don`t understand is that with bitcoin everything is possible. That rise from 0 to here was impossible, but bitcoin made it somehow. When you start your question with "Can" can this happen, or that, with crypto answer in most cases is "it`s possible to happen under right circumstances". And it`s all about that, under a right circumstances anything can happen, bitcoin can even worth more than a million dollars for single bitcoin. Anything is possible, so be open for anything, expect everything, be ready for that.
Yes, bitcoin can be an alternative for import or export of a country, because bitcoin has a global exchange rate, so hyper inflation will not occur. for the people themselves, bitcoin can also be very valuable when in the long-term hodl and the price goes up.

As the main basic rule, there is no currency that can be considered very safe from failure and difficult times. so is it possible that bitcoin can become worthless?
The answer is yes. Because of inflation and it's volatility, it has a higher chance to drop to zero value and be worthless. But because of the mass adoptation from crypto enthusiasts these chances of being worthless has been minimized.
the adoptation of cryptocurrency can prevent the bitcoin to be worthless, in fact if people are continuously using cryptocurrency in different ways it will helps sustaining it worth, and even the bitcoin is on its 10 years of existence it is still on development,over the years it has a great changes and people are continuously using it.
