@travis.woo.trades: I’m not convinced Bitcoin survives forever. Let’s talk about it. I’m interested in owning assets I can leave alone for the next 50 years. Never sell. Let them compound. Never generate taxes. And if I need cash, I can borrow against them instead of liquidating. That’s the framework. And within that framework, I’m not sure Bitcoin makes the cut. Now before people get emotional, I’ve studied Bitcoin deeply. I like Bitcoin. I understand the appeal. But if you ask me whether I’m comfortable holding it untouched for 50 years? I’m not sure. Here’s why. First, there are still major unknowns around future technology. Quantum computing is one example, but it’s bigger than that. The future is uncertain. Second, and more importantly for me, the economics are weird. Gold costs money to mine. But once gold exists, it doesn’t require some giant ongoing global network burning energy forever just to keep existing. Bitcoin does. It costs money to mine it, and it costs money to maintain the network. And eventually, when block rewards get small enough, the network has to rely more and more on transaction fees. That’s where I start asking hard questions. What exactly is paying for this long term? What is the irreplaceable thing we’re getting for the cost? And is the fee generation actually strong enough to support the system at global scale over decades? That’s not a simple question. Maybe Bitcoin survives and proves me wrong. Totally possible. But if I’m choosing something I want to hold for half a century with very high confidence, I need something I feel better about than “probably.” So I’m curious: what asset would you personally trust to hold for the next 50 to 100 years? #bitcoin #investing #wealth #finance #mindset
