There will ever only be 21 million coins minted. Ever. If you think about it, that means that bitcoin can only go up in value, essentially, forever.
old:
bitcoin will lift the unbanked of the third world from poverty
consumers can rest easy knowing their money is safe from hackers, unlike credit card users at target, home depot, etc
new:
next halving will cause more demand for limited supply
billions of dollars of VC being invested every month
stock market plunging, world wide economic collapse seems imminent. people of the world will use bitcoin as a hedge.
Cut your stock market losses before it's too late, invest in bitcoin! You have been warned since bottom at $275!
Wow where to start with this...How exacty will bitcoin save the poor from terrible income disparity? Bitcoin is not going to do anything to create trillions of dollars worth of weath out of thin air, and probaby no poor peope have bitcoins to start with.
Their money is safe...yeah, tell that to the 800k that was "stolen" from Gox, or any of the other people who have been ripped off, send to the wrong address, etc, with NO consumer protection.
No, the halving will cause a lesser supply, you have no idea there will be any demand at all by then.
Not billions every month, not even close. There have been hundreds of million though over the past couple years.
"Seems imminent" has been said for the last 5 years. We are still in a deep recession, but a collapse doesn't seem likely. War, yes, possibly more civil wars, but collapse, not yet.
But good luck bull troll.
