Gold will only be supplanted by Bitcoin once the gold on asteroids can be harnessed. Since it is not feasible to deploy mining equipment to an asteroid, we will have to redirect a smaller passing asteroid to impact Earth just offshore where it can be retrieved economically. This can be accomplished by detonating explosives near the asteroid as it approaches Earth. It will require sophisticated rocketry with precise sensor capabilities in order to safely direct the asteroid's path.

Therefore, the entity that controls the world's most advanced rockets in the coming decades can exponentially increase Bitcoin's value by devaluing gold via flooding the supply of it.
