150 years from now, bitcoin will most likely have zero value.
There's far too much happening in the world to assume the shape of it will hold up that long, even if you're the biggest bitcoin bull.
AI/AGI/ASI, quantum and post-quantum computing, WWIII and nuclear war, the space race, etc. And that's just scratching the surface of what might happen.

- Breza 2y agoI imagine life will be very different, but I doubt money won't exist. Just like how different the world is today compared to 150 years ago.
- Breza 2y agoOr an underappreciated risk to Bitcoin: people getting bored with it. That could happen much sooner than 150 years. I agree that it'll likely be worthless in 150 years. We just don't need any massive upheaval for that to happen.
