Topic: In what situation would Bitcoin die? - page 50. (Read 101822 times)
Lack of investors i guess, is the situation that can possibly end bitcoin. I am just thinking of the situation wherein there's no investor, how can bitcoin can facilitate. And inability to process transaction of bitcoin, with that, bitcoin can stop.
if all the governments of all the world joint hands together to banned bitcoins ,then only would bitcoin can come to an end.otherwise it is not gonna happen no where soon. because of its decentralization and no technology could beat because it is the first of its kind.
Yes. If everybody dont want bitcoin anymore thats is the time i think that we wouldnt see bitcoin again. If no one wants it , it will be the start that the bitcoin will shutdown if no one wants it anymore but the fact that bitcoin has a many users now and many people wants it thats good. 
If everyone stops using it or if in some way becomes wothless, these are the two situations I think of that could make bitcoin die. But I don't know what could cause something like this, people get used to bitcoin and all benefits that it gives and demand is geting biger all the time.
Even if it is quite hard to say when it would happened I also think that if people will no longer use Bitcoin as an option for trading or in other word will not support it it may become a current without value in the future if it will happen. We all know that Bitcoin is aligned through the development of technology where it can brought by the support of the number of people who are open on using Bitcoin as an option for daily transactions and investments. But for now as soon as people know that Bitcoin has a future and open opportunity it is a good thing for Bitcoin because it is the moment where it will continue its development rather than to stop.
if all the governments of all the world joint hands together to banned bitcoins ,then only would bitcoin can come to an end.otherwise it is not gonna happen no where soon. because of its decentralization and no technology could beat because it is the first of its kind.
0ne important ting will make btc die is no demand... if no demand, btc will become worthless.
However, it is hard to happen since there are a bit amount of loyal bitcoin users. Therefore, even when most of the people abandon bitcoin, they will still use bitcoin till the end of the world. Moreover, bitcoin is used by hackers in the underworld before it is officially used by all levels of people around the planet hero member

I dont know if what year bitcoin will die but i ithink if in the futute have a new technology ,cryptocurrency much better and high than bitcoin i think that is the one reason that bitcoin will die and if many people dont use use or invest in bitcoin.
Agree. But also problem could be in the law of every government. If the largest states join against the Crypto-currency, I think it would have bad consequences. Mind you, bitcoin halving and limit make it more bullish in future.
for fast die. all communities dump bitcoin coin. pretty sure bitcoin will die in a second. hack can still be block or fix. but communities how they wanna fix it. if all dump being made.no one wanna buy it. absolutely die.

How and why would the end of bitcoin (and any other cryptocurrency) occur? Value decrease? Legality issues? Different technology/ideas to supersede it?
quick death = network hackslower death = multiple forks, like whats going on now
Yes one of the case would be if network is being hacked or something fishy done due to which the ledger does not respond or cannot track it. Another thing will be if multiple powerful countries think that bitcoin is causing the problem to the economy due to the illegal activities done and they decide to ban it than this may lead to the crash of the prices which include countries like Japan, US. China etc.

Bitcoin has successfully overcome many critical issues like Mt.Gox hacked,price falls,BU,and now recently BCC.No altcoin today has the potential to replace bitcoin.So,its quite clear that bitcoin would not get destroyed by such factors.But it is said that quantum computers in future would be a big threat to bitcoin.It is said that quantum computers are moving closer to reality and many governments are investing in it.It is said that quantum computer will undermine the cryptography surrounding bitcoin's private and public keys.By this way,it will be able to read private keys of a bitcoin holder thus getting access to his bitcoins.It would be a huge threat to bitcoin.Already,many cryptographers are working to create quantum proof technologies so that bitcoin would be protected from such attacks.

Maybe if there' be continuous decrease of its demand for some reason. If the demand will fall continuously, the market value of Bitcoin will be totally low. And if this happen, maybe the end of Bitcoin will occur. But at the current state of Bitcoin on its demand and market value, it is quite impossiblr to happen, and in fact, tere are more people that are now interested to Bitcoin. Actually it this situation is not THAT impossible. If governments of few biggest countries signed a treaty, some kind of deal that they want to ban bitcoin, the price would fall to the ground and bitcoin would basically die. For now, bitcoin is not such a big threat to government but in the future it might become.
I have a different opinion. It is not that simple and easy and governments are aware of the threat that bitcoins impose on their power of control. I can bet many of the government authorities themselves are involved in crypto currency secretly. Bitcoin will not die until Internet dies. Other than that, nobody has the strength to stop the unstoppable. Bitcoins is a storm and will crush everyone who gets in its way. Bitcoins are cool!

Inventing new technology, crypto will not kill the mighty bitcoin come on. Bitcoin being dead is like everyone stops using bitcoin. And that is never going to happen. Bitcoin users will never let that happen. Because if a new crypto better than bitcoin comes it will not get much popularity until people start using it. And even if they use it and that new thing gets higher than bitcoin even then people will use it and it will not die just like other coins lower than bitcoin.

If it will be banned to most of the countries for an intance that it is used on illegal activities. If it would be illegal, the demand will drop, even if there'll be still people that use it. There'll be more people to be afraid of using it because of being illegal. If the demand will fall, it will negatively affect its market value if I'm not mistaken.Legal problems won't kill bitcoin, they can only damage bitcoin's value. If there is such thing exists in the world to kill bitcoin, it's the bitcoin itself. Think about technical problems and a huge bug inside bitcoin. It would die immediately.

I think bitcoin will only "die" if it is overpowered by other cryptocurrency. Therefore cryptocurrency will be still their. If other cryptocurrency upgrade their features, bitcoin will need to upgrade too. If bitcoin doesn't make any move, it will probably affect the rate of users of bitcoin and subsequently die.
Only possible scenarios that I could think of would be the end of money (which is unlikely), higher technology that would make blockchain tech obsolete, big change in economic and financial zeitgeist all over the world, and possibly non usage by all.
I think we are too long way for that ,bitcoins is not totally at its existence and it might be our future money in online as internet is also growing, i only think how about the poor ones who can't afford to buy a cellphone so that they can use bitcoins and any others in the society.Maybe we can see it will die if the biggest authority in this world which is the government will totally ban bitcoin.
That is something we can't do anything with because they have the power to do it.

when no one use bitcoin, include price of bitcoin drop and alt coin price grow up. and when bitcoin die it will replace by other coin that have more people interested.
yeah without people using bitcoin, bitcoin will not stay like now and people will be leave bitcoin if suddenly the price is drop like the first time launched. i don't know with the other coins, but i think there will be another coins which have many benefits to people will be the leader and lead the crypto currency world.
Yes if people will stop using bitcoin then the price will go down and then it will die but I think people will stop using bitcoin since we can use bitcoin to make transaction easy.
