I doubt it.  Like I said, most people will never own Bitcoins and they honestly don't need to.  The double-spend problem has been solved. The tech can be duplicated and enhanced in an infinite number of ways now.  At this point, there is nothing unique about Bitcoin other than it was first. Any merchant accepting Bitcoin can easily accept an alternative and they will move to that which consumers deem useful, which means it needs to be available.  And of course, not taxed as property.  That's just a non-starter.
