Y'all already know all the other keys are in 2^128, thinking otherwise is a waste of time.
I think human create bitcoin. (bitcoin create by human, not god) so human can possible crack bitcoin. possible in future (but now for now)
science, research project will be not give up (if can solve bitcoin, they will be got bit-name and famous right) PhD etc.
some part will be continue crack bitcoin and give some news to surprise when crack it done
it not waste of time.
I believe bitcoin just starter and on early stats or just proof of concept on first generation. (so next generation bitcoin will be perfect and powerful more than now)
money can not destroy bitcoin and bitcoin value never zero
only way can destroy bitcoin is crack private key
some government possible to try crack bitcoin (may be)
I think future bitcoin original will be upgrade or change network when quantum computer is coming
of Course bitcoin may be change to quantum bitcoin or gigabit bitcoin or high enough can not crack for 50 year
sorry for of topic
may be can see Pollard's kangaroo ECDLP solver + plus new technic or mix other algorithm to solve brute-forcing better
