No it will never be a reserved coin because it can't be access by anyone. It will be inconvenience for someone who doesn't know what bitcoin is. It might be an alternative but it will not become a reserved coin in the future.

That's certainly true, mate. There are still areas in the world where the Internet cannot be accessed. As such, Bitcoin cannot be used by people within those areas, since it largely depends on the Internet to work as intended. Recently, it has been announced that offline Bitcoin transactions could be performed by using the goTenna device and the Samourai Wallet. If this becomes highly successful and popular, then Bitcoin could reach areas that lack Internet access.

Even if the Internet would become accessible by the whole world, Bitcoin simply cannot achieve the status of a reserve currency because of many reasons that were mentioned previously. That means, that Fiat currency (like the USD) will still dominate the world, while cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum would only serve their purpose as alternative currencies. Nonetheless, anything could happen as our world is changing in a fast pace. Just my thoughts Grin
