There is no such thing as forever in this world and all things will eventually end but there are those which exhibit long-lasting qualities and I am expecting that Bitcoin can be a part of that list. As long as there is a good demand and supply, I think Bitcoin will be doing fine and we will continue appreciating and making Bitcoin popular and widely used. Nobody can be sure of the future. With the way it is right now, Bitcoin could not survive due to scalability problem so let's hope that acceptable solutions can be found for many challenges that Bitcoin is facing. As long as there are people like us who love to use and trade Bitcoin, then this coin is not going to be extinct, definitely!



You must be talking here of the price of Bitcoin, am I correct? In the near and far away future, as long as Bitcoin's demand is increasing its price has the chance to also continue expanding though it is not going to be on a straight line. The history of Bitcoin has been littered with many surprises and unexpected stories so it will be the same for the next 10 more years. There will be small and big dips, crashes, bears, bulls and many things in between. Just continue on hodling and soon you will be rewarded.

I think as long as it will circulate on the market and using as alternate payment method then it will never be extinct and also the price of bitcoin could be much higher in the future since the supply will be lessen and miners too since the difficulty of mining and getting a reward just to get a one bitcoin.

Cryptocurrency is the future payment and most likely to adopt all over the world and we can became paperless money.

We will all become extinct someday. That is the rule no one or nothing is exempted. The earth you are walking on will not even be exempted from it. Bitcoin is a product of a particular age or era in technology, in financial technology to be exact, and as it has a beginning so it will have an end.

If that's just an expression to how long bitcoin would exist, then we can consider it right because bitcoin is still in its early stages. But if it meant literally, that's impossible. There would always be something that would be better than the present. You'll never know, few years from now, there might exist a coin that would, or would not have the blockchain technology, with far more faster transactions, more secured algorithms, and other advancements. We cannot assume that Bitcoin would not pass away, it's just that the time to get to that point is still too long.

I'm sure people where saying that about Sony Walkman's, about analogue TV and lots of other stuff that is now outdated and dead.

Unfortunately, in our current society, everything has a pass by date and especially for technology, with such huge innovations had in the field.

With Bitcoin, I wouldn't see it surviving anymore then 20 years from now - I'm sure blockchain technology would be obselete by then.

It is hard to say that Bitcoin is going to be in this market forever. I think these are baby steps of Bitcoin now and it has a very bright future too. But that doesn't mean Bitcoin will never die out.

Bitcoin is still awaiting for major adoption, while we are confident on it, we are still unsure what the future unfolds. There are also many altcoins there that are trying to replace bitcoin. And if ever bitcoin becomes a normal currency for everybody in this world, there's still the "never say never". Because change is constant. Everything has an end. Super fast computers in year 3000 might make bitcoin nuisance anymore. We never know. Let us just embrace what bitcoin brings today.   

Future updates from this project will be the determining factors whether this coin will last forever or it will be replaced by another one that will be introduced along the way. So far bitcoin still moving positively even we are seeing a lot of sways. End users will be the deciding tool if what would be the future for this
crypto currency, existence will be there as long as users are supporting the chain.

I believe everything is replaceable so time will come it will become extinct. That will happen when something greater than bitcoin will be created. If people find that more useful they will shift using that. Think like this, before smartphones there were telephones but now it slowly disappears and the future generation won't even know it exists.
