Bitcoin’s price and adoption go hand in hand. without growing adoption, we shouldn’t expect sustained price increases. After all, demand (and thus price) is a reflection of real-world usage. But here’s the challenge: Bitcoin can’t compete with fiat for everyday transactions yet. So how do we bridge that gap?
Price is consequence of value and value comes from use cases and utilities of Bitcoin that includes its blockchain security as well.
Price is zero if value is zero and you can see this fact with altcoins that can be very high in short term but in long term after a scam trend gone, shitcoins' prices will return to zero as should be.
Bitcoin success comes with mass adoption and without it, there will be no success like what we witness in 2025.
The Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto imagined about this future many years ago, he is like a time traveller.
Right. Otherwise we couldn't have a finite limit of 21 million coins, because there would always need to be some minimum reward for generating. In a few decades when the reward gets too small, the transaction fee will become the main compensation for nodes. I'm sure that in 20 years there will either be very large transaction volume or no volume.
