I don't believe so. Governments will just not let us do this. I think that aiming to replace any currency is bad way to take. We need to soften the banks and governments and persuade them that we can coexist, what will happen after that is up to consumers.
But we are still small and fragile,that's why we can't fight the battles that we can't win. We must pick our battles very smart. Or I am afraid we can get smashed.
I think that BTC and fiat will complement each other in the future.
yes, btc and fiat will complement each other and that will be healthy, that way it is more about accessibility and functionality rather than perceived as bitcoin world domination. I don't know which countries you are talking about which disregarded US as a reserve currency, there are so many countries which are not so dependent for that move. A lot of countries depend on US dollar and it definitely affects their end decisions.

On what would the value of bitcoin be based? Like the euro it is a baseless currency with a value dependent on demand.
i believe that it wont change dollar soon maybe for more 30 years as people usually like to have paper money, and they still with banks and dont want bigger reforms
No this replacement will not happen that soon. Before that happens we will see Fiat and cryptos exist side by side. Then cash will vanish and only digital cash will exist. People will realize how transparent and controllable they are. Now they will start to realize that Bitcoin might be safer and less transparent and switch over.
I think the existence of crypto currency and fiat currency existing together has already taken place, except the fact that it is not adopted by the masses. The day such obstacles are overcome are when there is more widespread knowledge and education throughout the world. Bitcoin might not be the most complete currency in the world right now, but I bet it will be if bitcoin's growth rate increases and adoption speed accelerates.

No, bitcoin will not replace dollar soon That day, if bound to come, will come after a few years as there is more chaos in the economic world and people realize how financial institutions are doing no good, and causing much harm than peace. When people will migrate from such financial institutions to bitcoin, that's when such a debate arises. That's when there will be a tough fight but the verdict just can't be presumed.
I doubt it would take 15 years to replace the dollar with Bitcoin. Not sure how they would come to that conclusion because they seem to assume Bitcoin will still be around and hold it's value in 15 years. Even Satoshi himself said that the value of Bitcoin could be zero in the future, so to make an assumption about the time it would take for the dollar to collapse is a bit ignorant.
Satoshi said that either the value could be a million dollars or zero, nothing is for certain. Right now, there is only speculations which could be formed. If people want bitcoin to grow, they should be prepared for the change and they should practice the change. If people don't make sure that btc is a part of their daily life like dollar is, how do they expect such an economic revolution out of nowhere?

How you can imagine,dollar is USA national currency,tell me whatwill be with btc when all 21mln btc will be mined

I think Bitcoin will remain a sort of "secondary" currency for a very long time. The user base (if that's what you want to call it) I think will definitely grow, but to replace the dollar? I think that would be very unlikely, the government handing away their control over currency and some Americans havenever even used the internet before...
I belive the value of bitcoin will go up and the value of other currencies will go down. Both at high speeds. If the governments wait too late they won't be able to afford the attack if their dollars become almost worthless.

Perhaps it could replace all currencies, but since USD is the world reserve, BTC replacing USD is about as far as anyone could dream it would go. but only the future can tell
It is simply impossible that bitcoin can replace any major currency of the world, and that replacing USD is something like watching a dream with open eyes, bitcoin can never be a primary currency and it would be secondary currency for sure no matter what value it is holding.

I do not think that the United State of America change their dollar with another currency. But we will see, all we have to do is to wait 15 years and see what will happen. On the other hand, i am sure that Bitcoin will be more and more used as a currency, but it will stay like that like another optional currency.
No way.
To much goods is closely linked for USD. like gold and oil.
it would require serious political and economic changes

It's not going to do it anytime soon or likely even within 15 years, but it could in our lifetime I reckon. I think more economic instability in certain countries and maybe another financial collapse/crisis will happen soon rather than later and that could bring in many new people to bitcoin which could have a snowball effect.
Why will it not? If in the future bitcoin keeps going up and fiat keeps going down which is what happens when they print more of it on a whim people might wise up. Money should grow over time not devalue and bitcoin could solve this and that's what's great about a deflationary currency.
absolutely not. there is no point in thinking it ever will replace any major fiat currency. just stop thinking/hoping that it will happen. it will not.

I don't think Bitcoin will ever replace the dollar or euro. One of the facts is that it's price is very volatile. But I do think that it will become mainstream one day. 
It has a user base of like 250k people.. It won't be volatile when it has several billion
