Bitcoin was not here with us couple of years back but Bitcoin is here so can it survive decades like normal money?
Set yourself back to 2011 or earlier when Bitcoin wasn't even heard by a normie and a pleb. And the same question probably have been asked during that time when there's no noise heard from Bitcoin and it did survived for a decade. Right now, there's more platform, there's louder noise for Bitcoin and that's why it will still survive for the decades to come. Come what may, there are now governments that are looking into investing their resources on it like buying more BTC as their reserve or building their own mining farms for mining BTC.
