Tell me, would this earth still be in existence in 2140? Or would we humans probably destroyed it by then? I mean, look at the way the world is going. Well, it doesn’t even matter because there’s only going to be a super little amount of us who could be alive by then. Some of us have already lived half our lives and would be about maybe 140 - 170 years by then. Even for those birthed right now, they’ll be 115 years at that time, and that’s a lot.
This is another dimension to this discussion that cannot be completed without sounder either too religious or too scientific (Like in the case of global warming/climate change). Since we cannot know if the world will be in existence then or not, it will just make sense we do not go that direction.

On what it will look like when all 21 million bitcoin have been mined, I do not see much difference, it will just be setting the fee either from the sender side or the miner side and it will be based on market competition, another case of demand and supply market mechanism. This will not be the end of bitcoin but there will definitely be some panic at the beginning before a common ground is established. Like many people already commented, none of us active now will be there when it will happen.

Absolutely. Bitcoin's resilience against FUD and FOMO showcases its core strength as a decentralized store of value. Looking ahead to 2140, the year of the last Bitcoin's mining, prompts reflection on the importance of long-term financial planning. Investing in Bitcoin now may offer significant benefits given its scarcity and growing adoption, making it worth considering regardless of age or concerns.

Now those who are involved with Bitcoin or have a proper idea or understanding about Bitcoin are basically no one below eighteen years then in 2140 everyone will be over 140 years old that means we may not be alive on earth even if there is an idea about Bitcoin at that time. Or those who survive will have amnesia and will lose all amnesia that has been revealed to people who know too much about Bitcoin.

I agree. Adding to what you say, we don’t even know what technology will be in existence by then. What if Bitcoin will have its turn till a new innovation comes to place? It’s Just the same way we thought something else was the best before Bitcoin was created. From Bitcoin to Ethereum, and other Altcoins that has brought some idea somehow. Who knows what tech will be next.
Yes, it's possible Bitcoin won't remain popular for an entire century or even more, because the technology is in constant development and upgrades tend to be introduced in shorter intervals of time the more we advance in time and as technology gets widely adopted by more people than before. I think it's a fact Bitcoin will still exist for all these years coming ahead, but the possibility of existing without the interest and attention it has today from many people, is one of the predictable scenarios.

I can imagine some Bitcoins left to be mined, and rewards per block being too low, while miners who were active on this industry before already moving themselves to another sectors which will be profitable in the future. Probably sectors which don't even exist by now, but which will be discovered or created in the following decades.

If humans have success exploring the universe above us, I think that will be a sector of interest from many human entrepreneurs and businessmen.

* What's your excuse for not investing in owning Bitcoin now?
This hits to those that still waiting for the dip. As they waited for it for a long time, they have gone out of their plans and have missed a lot because of their wait and plan of buying at a certain low price of Bitcoin.
If they've just listened to the folks that have told them to DCA while waiting, then, they won't be left behind on this bull run and they're also celebrating with us. But the problem with them is they are not able to secure themselves some bits by DCAing but instead, they choose to be patient but that patience of theirs didn't go into fruition because it isn't used at all.

Every single one of us on this forum right now are millionaires. The amount of Bitcoins we own right now is worth millions by 2140. The truth is that none of us would be able to spend the money on goods and services since 2140 is outside our life expectancy.

By 2140, none of us will be alive to witness the event of the last halving and for those that will probably make it till then which I strongly doubt, they would be praying to be better off dead than alive because the existence in the world will be like hell to them and they will wish they’re not still alive by then. Even if they have a lot of bitcoin saved till then, they can’t enjoy it again as enjoyment comes with an healthy and strong body and soul for it.
Thinking that the amount of bitcoin everyone holds now will be a very huge value in the future just reflects how optimistic bitcoin holders are and also praying for a better future for bitcoin to be at its peak after every four years and continue to win globally as an acceptable and tradable currency of exchange.

Without a doubt, you are correct. The age is huge, who could hit his or her chest and say that they pray to be alive and see 2140? By then, none of the people in this forum will be alive. Even a newborn will only be about 115 or 116 at that point, talk more about people who are already above 30. You know there comes an age when you will be wishing to die because you are too old to do anything on your own, sit in one place for a years, we might even get tired of living in this world. We all are going to be dead by then, so those who can see the year are not yet born. We are no meant to live forever, we won't be around to see what happens, so that will be a different story by then.


Let's focus on the present, I don't really know how to answer questions about the future like the OP's topic. We don't even know what will happen after a night of sleep, so how can we discuss what will happen 100 years later?

Nowadays, bitcoin is becoming a trend, a topic discussed all over the world and I am really happy to be a pioneer in the bitcoin revolution. Bitcoin is doing very well and outperforming other assets, but frankly, we have no guarantees that it can last the next 10 years, let alone the next 100. So let's enjoy the present and don't worry too much about the things we definitely won't experience.

We should do well to start teaching the younger ones or our offsprings or those we care for, about BTC and cryptocurrencies in general so that they can be fully equipped and engaged in it before we get old, tired and die with the knowledge and a wallet of coins.

Yes. I strongly support your statement above and of course it also aims well for those of our next generation, where later our children will no longer have to bother looking for basic information in using BTC, especially for basic things.

If bitcoin really becomes popular and used globally, then we don't need to worry too much about educating our children about bitcoin. Because then the government and educational institutions will do it and do it even better than us. Additionally, educating children about bitcoin too early is not necessarily a good thing because it is not something that should be a top priority at their age.

*I'm sure none of us here, and anybody alive today for that matter, would still be breathing in 2140, so there's no point asking for our age by then. We'd all be long dead already.

Certainly, there are probably thousands of viewers who invest in smart ways in BTC because they know Bitcoin is not just a form of investment but will gradually become a changer of the current financial system.

Yes. The lifespan of life for the present is not the same age as the people before us and on average at the age of 69 we are old, frail and even have a call home (death).

The future is unpredictable, we don't even know how long bitcoin will last, so don't be too hasty in asserting anything. Even our own lifespan cannot be controlled or predicted, so do not try to predict things beyond your ability. For me, let's focus and live well for the present and the near future, don't waste time thinking about things that haven't happen centuries away from us.

OLD! Keep it rental. You know what I am in to so you can get in to it too.

Drugs. And I don't need a fan boy to train. Balling feels cheaper than respect.

You better level before you get leveled. Lallalah.

 I am not gonna forget how you made me goofy rich and pay you back. Systematic mood."

I know how you code now. Incremental.

Shit fun bro.

I'm never gonna duck right when you shoot

Cause I know that when you shot, it comes the bull

I've been staying on my lane, the safe lane

Holding onto you, till my death bed

Probably gonna give you to my kids, but I lost my keys

Now I'm a holder in the grave, getting richer in my long sleep.

That's a very good question you have there, I think this is absolutely what everyone should be asking themselves and then leave it to be bothering us in order to push us buy bitcoin now. Most of us might not be here to see that future where the last bitcoin will be mined, so we shouldn't be having fear of what will happen and what not to happen in future.

I calculated my age with the year mentioned above I realised that I might be able to meet the last having by God's grace because it's not up to a 100 years and I usually have this convection of reaching up to a 100 years but it's not guaranteed we all know that but anyways I will keep buying bitcoin at least now matter small because it will definitely not finish in my time so I have no fear for purchasing.

I don't need to beat around the bush further because what I want you to know that perhaps you haven't thought to sit and give a careful consideration about, before being bothered about any FUD and FOMO Or the mere thoughts of investing in BTC is this;
* how old would you be by 2140?
* What's your excuse for not investing in owning Bitcoin now?

Well, as someone still relatively young, I don't anticipate being alive by then, considering I'm currently 24. When you add 24 to 115, it equals 139 or 140. I doubt I'll still be alive by then, and even if I am, I may not understand or see value in investing in anything at that point. Just for the record, I'd probably be the oldest by then if I'm still around. So Bitcoin may not hold much significance for me at that time. it may be more relevant to my children, grandchildren, or even great-grandchildren.

However, one advantage I'll have by then is the knowledge of Bitcoin. That's why I'm grateful for the exposure I have to Bitcoin now. Whether I live to that period isn't my main concern. I still have many years ahead of me, and the decisions I make today will shape my future. Therefore, I've decided to start investing some money into Bitcoin this year. After making this decision, I've also resolved not to touch those funds for the next 30 years. It's an experiment of sorts, to see how the value of Bitcoin evolves from this year to three decades later. If I'm still alive by then, I'll return to this platform to share my experiences and the worth of Bitcoin from today to that future date.

If the earth will be existing till 2140, I don't think we will still be alive because is very hard these days for people to live above 100 years on earth and, if you see the people that live above 100 years behave like little children.

I guess I will be in 117 old by then if God spears my life till then and nothing will make me come close to BTC investment because, old age will not allow me to view the market price very well like the way am monitoring BTC price every night and day to ensure I don't miss any bull run.

It seems you made a mistake with you calculation Grin. Saying you’ll be 117 years by then means that you are currently 2 years old. Never knew we had 2 years old in the forum Grin.

Yes – this is an undeniable truth. I don't imagine any of us will be able to witness the last block being mined due to age - but mining will continue if miners are still making a profit from the activity. The lower the rewards they get, the fewer miners will be able to survive - meaning there will be fewer miners over time because they are unable to cover expensive operational costs.

Try to focus on the short term, for example the next 50 years – imagine how many mining industries are still surviving because the rewards are getting lower. I'm sure there are a lot of miners who quit because the rewards decrease - that will happen, but I think miners are still around.
I understand what you mean but 50 years isn’t short term. A lot of miners will quit indeed because the rewards would have been halved so many times between now and then.

OP, certainly i wont be alive to see that year. But my investment will, passing from my heirs to their future heirs. I have laid the foundation and my children who would take after me will continue the steps i have taken. There is no joy greater than the fulfillment of your heart desires followed by the assurance that your offspring will do greater than what you have done. I am a proud bitcoiner and crypto enthusiast. I believe that cryptocurrency is the future and i will bring that light to my family so my heir will continue to believe in the advancement of digital technologies and how it can shape the world for good.

Am glad to be part of that change.

The year 2140 is a long time away, and we will not be able to witness when the last bitcoin is mined and mining activity ceases. I can't imagine how things will be by then, but if this forum continues to exist, none of us will return to discuss what we're saying now. What if the world doesn't even exist by then? Rhetorical question, right? Nobody can tell.

Those who own some bitcoin now, no matter how small, and can save until then, implying that they will not be the ones to spend it by then, will be worth more than what we are seeing now as the projected price of bitcoin continues to rise, and no one can predict what will happen to it by that time; all I can hope for is that it becomes widely accepted by then.

I know the role of miners is not only to mine bitcoins but they also play the role of processing transactions on the bitcoin blockchain. But as I emphasized, people continue to mine bitcoin because they still enjoy large profits from mining. But once all the bitcoins are mined, profits will certainly decrease significantly, and maintaining mining machines just to process transactions will not be feasible. Because the cost of mining machines is very expensive, not to mention other additional costs, but if it is as you say then we can use personal computers to process transactions at that time. Then everything is simpler and easier.

Bruh, seriously....
This topic is making my head hurt, we all talk about Bitcoin here and we don't know the basics?

The cost of a mining machine is expensive because it gives you a huge profit!
When the reward goes to zero, then miners live on from fees and if the income is 100$ a day , there will be 100 miners splitting those into 1$ revenue per day and mine with a cheap miner with 4 chips and 4th/s. Bitcoin mining is not a traditional industry, the amount spent of bitcoin minign can go to zero, this doesn't mean suddenly there won't be any miners left, it takes one guy one asic and the chain goes on!

It's expensive now to run gear that will mine you the share of 1 btc because one BTC is worth 70k!
The daily reward is $59,171,021, if the daily reward will be just $59,171 there will simply be 1000x less mining machines!
That's all!

Of course the role of miners may have to only become restricted to fewer tasks of which involves adding blocks of transactions to the Blockchain.


Restricted to...do the same things as they do now?
Do you think that now miners do some magically completely different than just finding blocks?

Who's to say whether the roles of miners will be lesser, if not more?

You have no idea what Bitcoin mining is, right?
