bitcoin is needed for the off-planet economy and here's why:
there will only ever be 21 million bitcoin. for every bitcoin that is mined the computation time increases for each successive bitcoin that is mined.
they will not find more bitcoin in space. there is a functionally infinite amount of resources in our local solar system alone, enough to crash the entire world economy several times over (for a historical parallel look at what happened to gold when the spanish started mining it en masse in the new world).

wrong retard, Bitcoin and fiat is what killed the space age
gold used to be what pushed us out into the frontier, just look at gold rushes into the new world (as you mentioned), California, Australia, Africa, etc. Think that would've happened if there was no gold there? think that would've happened if gold was not money? NO.

now that we have Bitcoin and fiat all that people are doing is sitting at home, collecting fiat welfare and putting it into the crypto casino to get their dopamine rush while the world around them stagnates and fades

and NO, there is not a "functionally infinite amount of resources in our local solar system", do you have any idea how few asteroids there actually are in our solar system? the total mass of all asteroids in our solar system is ONLY 3% OF THE MASS OF THE FUCKING MOON
there is HUNDREDS of times more gold on earth than there is in space, and the deposits we have on earth have higher gold density than asteroids in space
the most common asteroid type are carbonaceous chondrites and they have a gold ppm och 0.1 - 0.23, gold mines on earth have a gold density of 6 ppm, that's 26 TIMES HIGHER GOLD DENSITY ON EARTH THAN 75% OF ALL ASTEROIDS

going into space only becomes valuable when the price of gold goes astronomical ($100,000+/ounce), which it should
then going into space for lucky strikes will be viable but it won't crash the price of gold, not even fucking close

Like sheep to slaughter.

Hundreds of trillions in leverage and you choose to own nothing? Sorry guys, btc is a zero. You are like an underwater cave diver. Taking extraordinary risk. But when the leverage unwinds, you’ll find that crypto is a false chimney and when you desperately swim to the surface for air there will be no way out. Real goods and assets will be bought up and claimed and bad paper assets will blow up in your face. Btc included. You will dump money in, but will not be able to extract value out. People will want hard assets when the leverage unwinds, and those with hard assets will not be letting them go for fiat money or digital nothing stores of value. Just something to think about. Make the money while you can when the cash is sloshing around. But your air supply is quickly running out.

Yeah, what this guy said. Capitalism demands scarce resources to maintain class structure. Humans will invent that scarce resource when material conditions don't create it. Unless we get world wide revolution to establish fully automated luxury space communism (so unlikely its not really worth contemplating) then we should bet on bitcoin or something like it to exist. It's needed for the capital class to reproduce its power structure every generation.

the problem with cryptocurrencies is that they require constant work input in the form of electricity and hash power to stay secure/useable and someone has to pay for that work input, those who use the currency and ideally the cost should be spread out over as many users as possible to make the pain for individual parties as low as possible, preventing capital flight

this is best done through inflating the currency and having a small transaction fee
the freshly minted coins which the miners receive are dumped on the market to finance their operations and the security/useability of the network, this however causes downward pressure on the purchasing power on all who hold the crypto (and by holding it making use of its security) while the transaction fees adds another layer of mining funding from those who make further use of the network through transactions

Bitcoin is currently using this model of inflation and small transaction fees to fund mining operations but once it reaches its hard cap inflation will stop and all of a sudden all mining operation costs will have to come out of the pockets of those who transact, those who simply hold the coin, using its network as a place to store wealth, pay nothing (which is unfair)

problem is that Bitcoin can only handle 7 transactions per second which means the transaction fee will have to be astronomical to provide enough resources for miners to keep the network secure but with astronomical fees, who will transact? no one will transact/very few individuals
so miners will be forced to shut down, causing the hash rate to plummet and making the network susceptible to 51% attacks
as the network becomes more insecure capital will flee leading to a death spiral

People are buying Pokemon cards for hundreds or thousands of dollars yet they're printed on worthless cardboard

Bitcoins are just values on an arbitrary distributed public ledger
But it can be used as truly borderless currency, a store of value, and money that you truly own (a number in your head [private key]) and not something a government can seize at customs, tell your bank to freeze, or take from your house at any time (like anything other asset)

something with the same properties as Bitcoin could over take it one day, but it was first and right now it's the most widespread and secure, and its adoption is still growing

It really is a baby brain take. The internet as we know it has existed for like 30 years. The internet is going to change the history of humanity in ways we can't imagine for millennia. As long as we're online, and the encryption holds, people will always want bitcoin, for centuries. It is a wierd historically important piece of the early internet. It will always have value. Even if it's not used as a currency, hundreds of years from now rich collectors will still be showing off balances and public keys as status symbols like they buy famous art and historical artifacts. Imagine living 30 years after the invention of the printing press and being like "well, guess I shouldnt buy books, nobody is going to want books anymore because they printed too many of them."

Yes, unless the U.S. markets and economy implode (which will happen in the not distant future), it's not even a guess at this point. Bitcoin is an exit from the failing U.S. financial system.

They don't. Even ETH was created as a way to apply smart contracts to BTC, until the market said "no, let's meme it into its own money!" See picrelated, this was the front page of the Ethereum website when Vitalik was first working on it.

Imagine being so stupid that you didn't buy from a non-KYC exchange or a Bitcoin teller machine or even in person at a Bitcoin meetup.

About 80% of my BTC could conceivably be traced to me, although it's unlikely. The other 20% cannot be traced unless they can find the security camera footage from a store that went out of business a few years ago, and watch through it for the half dozen times I walked in and then do facial recognition to figure out who put the money in the BTM. Oy vey!

Yawn. Lightning Network scales to millions of TPS. Sidechains can offload as much volume as anyone wants. The only reason sidechains aren't dominant is because there's no way to run one without a central authority right now; the mathematics for a permissionless sidechain still haven't been worked out -- but with Fully Homomorphic Encryption it's now doable as a distributed network, just HARD.

It's future as a currency is in the back end.
If you learned about how Robinhood and all the other exchanges failed over the WSB frenzy, you'd understand how blockchain makes delivery and settlement more efficient.

Every time you swipe your credit card there's a clearinghouse on the other end, liquidating assets to advance the money to a tab for the merchant and it's settled up weeks later with a grip of fees attached, from every party involved in that transaction.

Bitcoin is much cheaper, faster and flexible than the traditional system.

I understand you though. You are exactly like normalfags. They believe themselves to be the smartest person in the room and will listen to no one. I honestly hope the great reset genocides everyone under 110 IQ at least.

Because they are bad people. The world would be better without 90% of them inhabiting it. That includes you.

Listen up fucking faggots! You know Elon is the creator of PayPal right? You know that recently he mentioned that cryptos have a good chance of becoming the official 'money' right? You know that his company Tesla plans to accept BTC right?

Ok, faggots if you don't get the picture yet, I will let you know that I won't be fucking surprised if Elon comes up with some next level payment service which will support BTC and other cryptos and will make it fucking easy for the average joe to cash in, cash out, send payments, buy/sell stuff for crypto and so on. Holy fuq this board has become really fucking retarded with all those new basedboy GME low iq cunts swarming in.
