I stand with Ukraine.
In one of the topics I read "If bitcoin will reach $10.000, fiat currency has become worthless"
Do you agree with this statement?

Voted - NO. And I'm glad I'm not alone here thinking so.

First of, I do think the price of Bitcoin will be around $10k in ten years or so. But I don't think that fiat will be worthless if that happens. In many cases you can't bit fiat for its convenience.

I highly doubt that fiat will be worthless once the price of Bitcoin becomes $10,000, assuming worthless means nobody would use it anymore. When BTC reaches $10k, there will still be people will still be using fiat to trade.

Every fiat money have their own value which is according to the market value of the country currency in international market and share market. If bitcoin rate reaches to 10000$ that will be good for all. We can’t say it will replace all fiat currencies from the world. May be bitcoin will act as a ruling currency of the world like USD in now.

It is like having an old car and when its price increases, will fiat be worthless? Of course not, it gives only profit to those that hold bitcoin until $10k

If fiat currency be worthless than btc price will be ∞ , not 10k.

no, you don't need fiat to measure the value of bitcoin, it's just a convenience, that we are using it, you cna measure it by its purchasing power

like it was done in the past with barter, it would require some time in the beginning, but it's doable

BTC willl not reach $10.000, because BTC mining is going up worldwide and therefore, price will not go so high.  Grin

this is no sense, because with the halving the mienrs will not dump so much, actually their dumping pressure is not that significant for the market

what is really matter is the demand not the supply

Gosh, the price is where supply meets demand. To say supply doesn't matter ignores literally half the price equation.

the supply is always the same, because there basically the same people that are dumping and manipulate the market

the demand on the other hand can grow to unbelievable level or remain the same, or diminish, demand is the key factor

only with a bigger demand a better price cna be achieved, with a lower supply you will not have a better value than the current one

Supply is not always the same. The supply changes just as quickly and easily as demand. Both are equally important to price. When the government was selling off the Silk Road coins, it wasn't lack of demand that was pushing price down, it was a glut of sudden supply. The whole point of Bitcoin is to limit supply, that's just as important to price as demand.

that was a case because those coin were confiscated or seized or whatever, but usually there are only the same people that dump in the market, the demand is what matter more, and what will make bitcoin skyrocket

i'm talking abotu aa demand that is not here at the moment, the demand that will come from average joe, now for example we are not increasing because of the demand...

an example whyt he demand matter more, if bitcoin were used directly instead of dumped, the supply would be pointless, if not for trading, and the demand would be the only great factor

this will be true when the acceptance will be big enuogh, and again this is only possible with higher demand which will call an huge aodption

Where supply comes from is irrelevant. It doesn't matter that those coins were seized. It only matters that they suddenly became part of the active supply. 

As for your example, if bitcoins weren't dumped, and only traded for goods/services, the active supply would be less and the price would be higher. That's still supply-side, not demand.

If it comes to it we wont see it for shure perhaos our grandchild will

Governments will keep on using fiat as they can inflate the debt away. So when they issue debt, it will be fiat debt.

not to think that by raising the prices and people immediately run and need to use bitcoin as a basis, but primarily, I think about addition in the habit when running to the last detail as the argument to the usual conditions and this is a very long wait, I take that walking along with fiat and inventing bitcoin for any additional functions as may be fit, because e is not constrained by some conditions, though, but in the medium term we see quite parallel for the familiar and the new

Fiat will always needed since bitcoins value is determined by usd/eur.
So how big bitcoin will go doesn't mean it will outcompete with fiat.

Do you agree with this statement?
No.I completely disagree with this statement.Fiat would not become useless unless almost everyone on this planet start using bitcoin.In present scenario you need to convert your btc to fiat in order to buy most goods and services because you can't buy them with bitcoin.Price of bitcoin has no bearing on it replacing fiat

Kind of a trick question because fiat is already worthless.  It used to be backed by gold and is no longer, as well as being printed and printed.  If Bitcoin is 10,000 it means it is on the way to becoming global currency.

The value of fiat drops most of the time due to inflation. That is the reason why bitcoin is popular. Otherwise, I will not use bitcoin.

Comparing BTC which is equal to 10000 USD, USD will be worthless. But still people will be using USD, unless and until BTC is accepted globally or atleast oil giant countries accept BTC for their petrol.
Fiat does not have to lose all of its current value for Bitcoin to spike, its the same as why oil can be so low and the currencies of the world have no had a major spike in value. It was just that the demand for oil was filled, and there was an excess available.

Bitcoin can easily spike to $10,000 or more if there are enough people that want to buy into it. This can be the overall increase in Bitcoin's value, this can be because people have read something on a large and reputable news source that is telling them to buy into Bitcoin.

As long as there is a demand for Bitcoin, there will be value for it.

Because bitcoin is deflative and always appreciate in value, people would still prefer spending fiat money and hold bitcoin, they serve totally different purpose

it depend how high is the price, and how many someone have, someone with 10k coins at 10k each i'm sure will spend them without thinking, there is no need to hold anymore at that point

Of course tehre is a need to hold at that point. Are you really going to trust the dollar that much to sell all of your Bitcoin at any given point in time? Specially as the future paints us a very uncertain fate for fiat currencies and stocks in general... I don't think it's a good idea to sell all your Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the only way to have wealth outside of the system.

i said spending not dumping for fiat, i mean he spend his bitcoin directly, which i'm sure at 10k per coins will be utterly possible for almost everyone
