Topic: I see it, I feel it, I know it and it will live forever. - page 3. (Read 701 times)

Bitcoin will not last forever just like human, that's what I know, and besides we don't know what will happen to tomorrow, all we know is that it could exist long and we didn't until when because at any moment it could disappear at the unexpected situation.

Though I am not saying I don't like Bitcoin to exist forever, but of course we need to accept the fact of reality just a preparation if ever happen, and there is nothing wrong if we prepare, isn't right?

Bitcoin's existence really depends on whether there are users and supporters of it. If there is a community of people who believe and use Bitcoin, then the possibility of it existing in the future is very likely.

But the price of Bitcoin can create a barrier for everyday use. If the price increases significantly, it could make the use of Bitcoin in small transactions unfeasible.

Interestingly, people who have been involved in the cryptocurrency market for a long time often feel like they are pioneers and somewhat "discovered" the potential of Bitcoin. Sharing these experiences can really create excitement and lovely interaction.

our belief and concern for bitcoin should also be able to think logically, to be honest I also believe bitcoin will lead me to success in the future with the amount of investment I have, but we will not know what will happen in the next second, can it's just that the results will not be as expected, so we must be able to accept it wisely so that our survival can go well. it's the same as beginners who think trading is very easy, after they trade it turns out they don't match expectations, so they have to be able to improve themselves

Let's be real here, in time another more powerful cryptocurrency will take bitcoin's place at the top of the market cap ladder and beat it. It's all a matter of when at this point. Bitcoin is great and all that and I'm pretty sure it would stay relevant for as long as this industry persists, but at the same time the realist in me couldn't bring myself to think that bitcoin will remain at the top forever since we're getting to some sort of a singularity in this industry where things are becoming more and more advanced and people are becoming more and more invested in this industry that for the most part, profit no longer becomes their primary driver for staying here. And with that in mind I see potential in other more utility-heavy and useful cryptocurrencies to take its spot from the top.

Even if we are to assume that something is extremely original, legitimate, and has a tendency to last a long time, you and your friends should be aware that nothing lasts forever. Nothing is ever guaranteed to last forever, as is already common knowledge. Consider the life that you live. Have you been promised tomorrow? However, you have been hoping to see and survive till the following day. The same logic should apply to bitcoin. We continue to wish that bitcoin would last through the following day. That has been our belief and concern toward bitcoin

It is highly possible because of how the developer designs the Bitcoin mining scheme.  Aside from that Bitcoin as of now is being adopted by companies and institutions.  But surely we cannot say that Bitcoin will last forever because it is a natural law that nothing will last forever.

Someone also states that blockchain can possibly last forever but we really don't know if there will be an invention that will make blockchain technology obsolete, so we shouldn't be too optimistic about Bitcoin and blockchain lasting forever, instead, let us just enjoy the benefits we have while Bitcoin is dominating the crypto sphere. 

Don't get too optimistic, it might cause you some disappointments at some point in the future when a prolonged bear season worse than 2018 will happen.
And it really doesn't matter whether bitcoin lives forever or not, because you are not, we are not. So, one cannot live an infinite lifetime to witness this. One thing is quite sure about now, is that bitcoin will most probably still exist through our whole lifetime. Everyone here in this community might be dead, but bitcoin will still co-exist with other currencies used in the market.

I really like your thoughts on Bitcoin. You are right that we have high hopes for Bitcoin but there are still people who don't think Bitcoin is good for future. It is true that even those who criticize Bitcoin do not have complete knowledge about it.You did well to educate yourself about Bitcoin. There is no doubt that Bitcoin is the most useful and profitable of all crypto currencies. People who have full knowledge and awareness about Bitcoin should try to attract people who don't know about Bitcoin. We need to discourage people who spread negative news about Bitcoin. No one can deny the potential of Bitcoin and I think it is an excellent option for investment.

There were other cryptocurrencies before Bitcoin and many of them disappeared into oblivion, while others were shot down by government. So don't get your hopes too high or be over confident that Bitcoin would last forever. Since Bitcoin came into limelight, it has pushed through to cement itself as the world's number one cryptocurrency but that doesn't mean it would last for ever. Bitcoin is 14 years old and I hope it is still standing many years or centuries to come. But If there's anything I have learnt about digital asset is to give room for a little bit of uncertainty.

How come you can make predictions for future so certainly that it will remain there forever? We can say about few years ahead but not for lifelong as there might come some other technology that can vanish all these digital payments so when it will not be used much then it will not be there simple.Being optimistic is good but making such statements without any certain base also doesn't make up any sense.

the indisputable cyclical character of "Birth, Growth, Decay, Death" as applied to a wide variety of phenomena. Bitcoin, the digital currency, was undoubtedly born, is experiencing growth, and may eventually decline and cease to exist. The same pattern holds true for humans: birth, aging, and death. A car, for example, which you brought up, does have a date of manufacture, and it does drive and drive and drive until... it doesn't drive anymore.

The replacement of traditional currencies with digital alternatives like Bitcoin is currently underway, perhaps not as quickly as some might like. It's incredibly slow. True, nothing remains the same over time, but just because Bitcoin could theoretically perish doesn't mean it won't transform into something else. It may develop in ways we can't foresee at this time. It's possible that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will die out in the long run, but wouldn't it be a wonderful, organic development? We may not survive to see the changes taking place in the planet, after all.

With what you have explained above using altcoins breaking out from bitcoin as an example, it there means that bitcoin as a coin may come to an end, but there will be another project just like bitcoin or better than bitcoin to replace it.
In this premise, it is right if we conclude that the blockchain and cryptocurrency may last for ever instead of singling out bitcoin. Bitcoin may go, but if there is blockchain, projects will emanate.
The blockchain is something that looks like to last forever in as much there is network coverage (WWW).

I have been in the IT industry for many years and one thing I know is that nothing last forever. Just look at what are happening in the cellphone industry. (Every year new cellphones hit the market with improved features and before you know it, then the latest technology of the year before ..are outdated the year after that)

The Alt coin spinoff from Bitcoin are a typical example of how Crypto currencies are evolving. Bitcoin was once the only option and now we have 1000s of Alt coins in the Crypto currency market. 

You know, despite of how zealous we are with bitcoin, there are still a lot of people around that will criticize bitcoin and even discouraged us not to trust it, simply because they knew nothing about bitcoin but just a big scheme. But instead, I chose to educate myself and now I’ve seen finally how valuable and how useful it is to the people. And I’m one of those bitcoin enthusiasts that will leave a testimony that bitcoin will stay for good because it has a lot of potentials that people should learn to unblock. That’s the reason why we should promote massive learning for bitcoin not because it’s a highly profitable investment at the moment, but because of its undeniable advantages that promotes individual freedom on its users.

Bitcoin like every other currency in the world, has a beginning, and like its written that what ever has a beginning surly will have an end, so bitcoin sure do have an end, but when that end will come is what I believe no body knows or can even predict.

Think about this few facts , the world we all live has a beginning, and you agree with me that the end is coming, even though we don't know when, Human beings have their beginning, and sure have their end, and the end is when death comes for any human being,  A car, no matter how sophisticated has a production date, and after driving that car for several years, a time will come when that car will become so dilapidated that you cant drive it anymore, but will sell it off as scrap so the metals could be used to produce something else.

Paper money(fiat currencies) is dying slowly, while bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are rising slowly as well, a time will come when bitcoin and every other existing cryptocurrencies at that time will also start dying slowly, while another form of currency will arise, that is the true meaning of the phrase "the world is evolving", nothing is static, everything got its time to shine and time to go dim, Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies will surely phase out some day, but the beautiful news is that, we all currently might not be alive then to witness it, because we all must have grown really old and passed away.

I'm amazed how people remember the small things like that and it is hard to have that kind of remembrance if you really don't care about it at the time, but once you have realized that it's something valuable, it would really change you. That's just how much things change. It might not be as valuable at a certain time but it will be soon.

You know, nothing will live forever if the world is destroyed or something

No one can really tell what the future holds. But IMHO, if bitcoin will continue to be relevant and useful to the mankind, then there’s no doubt it will last forever. Besides, we’re not even expecting in the first place that bitcoin will end up reaching more than a decade but look at bitcoin now, its starting to conquer the whole universe with its real utility case and of course as a profitable long term investment. So perhaps if all the countries government will be unbiased towards bitcoin, then bitcoin will surely live and last forever.

Btw, I wonder if @OP is an immortal traversing through time going back and forth between the present, the future, and the past.  Since his title states that, he sees it, feels it and Bitcoin will live forever.  How I wish Bitcoin will live forever but just being mortal and with limited knowledge, I always grasp the idea of being no forever in this world unless @OP can support his statement and prove me wrong. once upon a time cart was pulled by human where the latest and most advanced technology then comes the cart was pulled by tamed animals, then the complex machines and the inventions of motors which make the previous inventions obsolete.  As I stated the technology will render any existing technology obsolete in due time and Bitcoin technology is not an exemption.


True that since Bitcoin is designed to be mined for a century, we might not be around when the last BTC was mined or the changes and upgrades in financial technology occur that will make Bitcoin be replaced by other forms of currency.  I also think that what we are discussing right now is just speculation and vague predictions since no one knows what will really happen in the future.

A useful asset will surely last for a very long time. BTC has use cases that people want, so there will be demand for it, what makes many cryptocurrencies useless and disappear is that they lack usefulness, so without demand the coin is going to collapse.

BTC also has a fixed supply, so the value is going to increase as the supply reduces. The future is a very long time and sometimes it is so hard to predict, but for BTC to lose its demand significantly, it has to be replaced by something much better, but we may not even be around to see such a creation.

they told me some years ago that BTC will not reach 14 years before it will disappear like other coins that disappeared till today that made their investors to regret for their choice, that is what made me to remind them that BTC has crossed 14 years and some months. We knew BTC in the same time but they never believe that it will go a long way to reach $69,000 before the price decreased to $29,456 few months ago in the market.
Yeah, since we are neighbors in the compound and we use to do things that will improve each others financially, materially morally as one family, that is what made me to advice them to invest in BTC in this season by showed them some evidence that will make them to delete that mindset that BTC will not stay long in the community.
