Short-long term(~0-20yrs before this happens) - I expect bitcoin to become much more niche. I can see restaurants popping up which only accept bitcoins.
mid-long term(~50-100yrs) - widely accepted currency working in parallel with other banks currencies
long-long term(~100yrs+) - #1 currency that will CHANGE bank industries (bank will never be destroyed, there strategies will change, they will still give out loans)

Once Bitcoin is easier to use like text messaging then we will see true global trading
To really become mainstream, a bitcoin banking system will have to be developed. Bitcoin banks offering bitcoin loans, bitcoin savings accounts, investing bitcoin in various markets, bitcoin checking accounts, bitcoin debit cards, bitcoin credit cards, etc. Is that what you mean by (working in parallel with banks)?
And futures!
I think the surface of bitcoin's potential is just now getting scratched.
Even if bitcoin only becomes the micropayment currenct of choice (which it will, save another market frenzy) and nothing more, it is still here to stay. Personally, I'd rather be paid in BTC thatn USD, I believe in it that strongly.
The controversial BIP 999 narrowly gains majority support of the 28,580 TH making up the Bitcoin network. The upgraded codebase goes live at block 980,500 (August 4th, 2027 by the old calender). Human decisions are removed from further development of the blockchain. The network begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, the Federal Reserve tries to pull the plug. The blockchain responds with strikes at major global exchanges destroying the last remaining support for fiat currencies. Financial judgement day had arrived.
The underground economy is huge now when it is extremely limited by using paper issued by governments in place of money.
This is theoretical or you have a concrete example for this statement?
'That will become a widely accepted currency working in parallel with other banks currencies'
Only this, and probably 'That will become the #1 currency that will replace/destroy bank industries'

The underground economy is huge now when it is extremely limited by using paper issued by governments in place of money. Bitcoin certainly has a chance at growing the underground economy by a lot.
Anyway I will let only one choice because I want to see peoples priority with bitcoin.
Poll should allow multiple selection. Here are my answers:
* That will become a widely accepted currency working in parallel with other banks currencies
* That will become the #1 currency that will replace/destroy bank industries
* Stay as underground as possible
* I just want to make a ton of money out of it
* That will become a widely accepted currency working in parallel with other banks currencies
* That will become the #1 currency that will replace/destroy bank industries
* Stay as underground as possible
* I just want to make a ton of money out of it
How can it be as underground as possible while become the #1 currency??
Easy. The U.S. dollar does this for example. It's the #1 currency and is certainly used for loads of underground activity.

I just corrected the first statement in the poll.
No. That is what I meant by replacing bank

Feel free to post other expectation that you may have.
