What happens to the value of bitcoin if the dollar goes to 0? Will bitcoin also loose value because the dollar is worthless? yes, there would probably be other things to mind like world war, full panic, no internett and so on. But set these things aside. How much would a sack of potatoes cost, and with what could I buy these potatous witth(gold/bitcoin/chickens/etc.)?

Any ideas? and any ideas on how bitcoin could be independant of the dollar, or other fiat?


I see a lot of good ideas here.

The reason for this thread is to explore if there are some other ways to value bitcoin. Like many of you said, it would probably just hop over to the next largest currency. But do we want the bitcoin to allways be dependant on another currency and its inflatory politics? Many of you also said that the dollar will never go to 0 and there is no reason to worry about this. But every currency in the world is loosing value everyday. Therefore bitcoin is also loosing its value. it may be a stupid question, but would it not be better to have another way to value bitcoin so you could allways buy 1 sack of potatoes for 1 satoshi for exampel?  

maybe if the dollar price is 0 bitcoins will definitely go up crazy a lot and if that happens it's legal bitcoin which will replace fiat money people won't believe in the name paper money because it's clear the value has dropped to 0 but you need to know the money we use every day it loses value every day after I know everything about money no adqa lago baackan gold when money is printed I believe 100% to bitcoin because only 21 million bitcoins exist in the world and are decentralized I'm sure bitcoin will definitely replace paper money but with very long time
