fiat is good for everyday use so yes, in my opinion we will be using it till 2025 or ever 2030

then we will have digital currency similar to USDT = 1usd
so basically "fiat" but in your phone

Fiat's only benefit right now is that the government is manipulating it to keep it steady in value. However that manipulation, whether to steady the value of a currency or to make the currency drop in value so that more exports can go abroad isn't going to last long.

Bitcoin's decentralisation is key to economic reform in future, in my opinion.

More people will definitely move to bitcoin in the future when they realise that they don't want to be in the grip of government manipulation.

No doubts fiat will dominate for the coming 10-20 years (specially the big 4) but after that perhaps bitcoin , ALTs beside the other online payments gateway as well as paypal , moneybookers ,okpay .. etc will be the only type of payment available to use due to many reason safety and security be the first . time will tell .
Nope i don't think that this happen on that year fiat will never dominate paypal will never use or partnet with bitcoin because bitcoin is digital currency and paypal is company so theres an big chance that paypal will never accept bitcoin.
I have different opinion, I really sure that people will leave fiat soon, becouse use fiat is not profitable. Fiat value is always decrease. So people have to leave fiat then choose bitcoin and gold becouse both are such as safe haven stuff. I didn't believe fiat anymore.

People is not going to leave fiat anytime soon, western fiat that is... but if we look at China, Venezuela, Argentina, India, and all those countries... they are screwed up beyond belief, so they are going to look for ways to move their wealth out of those money eating hellholes. The hyperinflation will guarantee that those 4 countries alone push the price to 5 figures, and that isn't considering the future situation where western fiat currencies fail too, or as physical cash gets moved, bitcoin shines to never imagined highs.
yes that is right to say and the reason is that still not more than 2 percent people of the world are not ye using bitcoin therefore most of the people are still using fiat currency.

Fiat still consider as the safest currency so there is no point for my goverment to forbid fiat usage as it will impact negatively into my country's economic fundamental

As time goes on , bitcoin will make poeple interest more and more because it's value getting higher recently

I don't see any reason for not believing the fiat currency. After all, I receive my salary in fiat. So the biggest chunk of my daily expenses are made in fiat only.

Bitcoin is definitely a magic currency with which you can make a good amount of profit. But that doesn't make bitcoin a legal currency. It is just people are believing in bitcoin and hence the price is sky high.

To make the long story short, I think it all depends on mutual trusts. If a government believes fiat then we have to trust it and if the government says if a particular paper having $10 written on it has the value of $10 then we must trust it. Same with the bitcoin, if people around the world think that bitcoin is worth $1,000+, then we have to consider it a $1,000+ thing. It doesn’t matter if you think bitcoin is worth $1,00,000+ because everyone must believe it at the same time.

You can always convert those fiat into bitcoin and that is not an excuses. Bitcoin is not a magic currency out of nowhere , it is the future and sooner or later people might use it's technology to replace fiat. Im not saying that bitcoin will replace fiat however Im saying that people might turn fiat into a digital currency like bitcoin as well

Sure, I still and always believe in fiat. This has long existed and for long time.

neither bitcoin or gold is profitable nor it is a safe haven, both will only be profitable if you use or invest it wisely.
saying that you're not believing in fiat anymore is just being a hypocrite. fiat can be profitable and can be a safe
haven if you use it wisely.

Why wouldn't I believe in fiat? Afterall this is the currency I use for my day to day expense and also I receive my salary in fiat. So most definitely I believe in fiat and I will continue doing so. Nothing seriously happened for that I have to stop believing fiat.

Bitcoin is an investment to me and nothing else. One thing I know that bitcoin investment will give me a much higher return than any other conventional investment available in the market. So I invest and store bitcoin. But fiat I use for my daily expenses. So I actually believe in both fiat and bitcoin.

That is right. We just use fiat but do not have emotions with that.

I also very much encouraged by the fact that more and more stores have begun to accept Bitcoin. But to live a very hard without fiat currency. It should be for everyone. In the next few years the situation will not change significantly.
well you are right it is very difficult if you live without fiat because by the end of the day our bitcoin we are exchanging it to our own fiat because there are still no stores that accepts bitcoin in our country weell I think next few years bitcoin is getting famous and lot of users and also there are lot of shops that accepts bitcoin and fiat stays fiat

If you try, you can live without a fiat currency. It does not matter whether all stores accept Bitcoin. There will always be someone who can sell you anything for Bitcoins.
What, and pay more? Like double or even triple? Come now, let's get real here.
No one's ever gonna pay more unless they got no choice. Why would I even pay $50 with bitcoin when I could buy the same product for $25 with fiat?
Live without a fiat currency? That's just wishful thinking for now. Are you even prepared to do what you're suggesting?
It's just wasting money. Far as I'm concerned, fiat and bitcoin are both money. I use whichever is more convenient/economical depending on the situation. I'm not gonna strain myself or waste money just so I could say "I only use bitcoin".

I have pretty similar opinion as of you.  Paypal and bitcoin are totally diffirent they can not be campared with each other. nor both of them can replace fiat. I believe in fiat and I think fiat will exist for ever.. it is possible that one day bitcoin may become a fiat.. but fiat will exist .
It is definitely that Bitcoin are different from Paypal but as you can see, Bitcoin is stronger and more effective than any other Fiat currencies on this planet. I do not agree to your opinion. Fiat can not last forever since cryptos have existed. And you are too fool to claim that Bitcoin is Fiat. Fiat is paper which is centralized by the government while Bitcoin is algorithm. They are obviously different

True its really hard when we don't use fiat on our daily living i can't even live without using fiat i don't think fiat will be denominant after 10-20 years fiat will be one will use to exchange our bitcoin i don't think that some of stores will begun accpeting bitcoin less of companies don't want bitcoin to be connected to them.

big companies are afraid to communicate with Bitcoin due to the fact that the situation is not clear to him. I mean legislation. Therefore, Fiat will still be used

their main reason is because their employees are not asking for it! I mean if you go ask your boss to pay you with bitcoin and then a couple of more of you colleagues do the same he is going to do it eventually and the only other issue is going to be taxes that I doubt it can be any trouble more than filling a new form!

I don't think that any employer would give a fuck about their employees opinion in this respect unless their business is half legal (or just illegal) and directly related to Bitcoin, say, they run an exchange, web wallet or mixer. Employers have to pay taxes in fiat, and they should pay wages and salaries (a part of which they pay as taxes) in fiat as well. In other words, most employers are legally bound to pay remuneration in a certain currency...

And no employee asking is ever going to change that

Bitcoin is GOD

All of us here we know the bitcoin advantages compared to fiat but fiat dominates the world something difficult to change. So If we believe to bitcoin we must use bitcoin. That is to buy/sell goods and services in every day transactions. If we use bitcoin only for hoarding then we tacitly agree that we trust only fiat money.
I do not think it should aim to replace fiat because it is impossible. quite become the alternative of fiat was even excellent
because fiat is have the whole world and will continue to be used and I believe in fiat
Before we even think of bitcoin or cryptocurrencies replacing fiat, bitcoin needs to become the dominant online payment, bitcoin casinos are doing a great job promoting bitcoin but we need to displace Paypal first.

The bitcoin will not become a dominant online line payment. If it is 5%, then it is a great achievement.
I disagree, bitcoin right now is small that is true but to deny the potential bitcoin has it’s senseless, the advantages bitcoin has over a payment system like paypal are enormous and not easily beaten, like very low fees no chargebacks, fast transactions with a good enough fee.
