I think that bitcoin is waiting for crash. The longer Bitcoin exists, the harder it becomes to "mine," that is, to create new coins. Without miners, the Bitcoin network will collapse. The threshold of the mining entrance is already too high for the average person, because giant warehouses in China produce huge amounts of bitcoins. In most countries, the cost of electricity required to produce bitcoins will be higher than the cost of a digital currency, which makes it meaningless even to try to extract it.
