bitcoin is maintained by core developers, would Bitcoin die a natural death if the developers no longer exist? Or if they stop maintaining/developing/upgrading the system?

bitcoin is not a physical machine to age as it works and need "maintaining"! it can continue to work as it is for may years without any issues. all the things you see are "additions" and although they have helped bitcoin's future but none of them were necessary for its survival.

besides, did you think there are only a handful of programmers in the world?

oh, and by the way stop centralizing bitcoin

Those developments we do see are just really add ups which isnt really necessary at all same as you said because bitcoin can still live without those updates or further developments and thinking off that bitcoin is an open-source thing which anyone could really access it but controlling it would really be an impossible thing.Bitcoin wont die as long theres a community support on it.We can really make such questions because curiosity would really be on our minds specially when we are still new on bitcoin but rather on asking better to read up bitcoin wiki Cool
