Mythbusting: Why Bitcoin Can Never Go to Zero

in #bitcoin7 years ago (edited)

 A number of commentators, just recently — when Bitcoin has been booming — have come forward with predictions of doom and gloom, warning investors that this new system of money — and investment opportunities — will fall to complete worthlessness. 

From the article this what Nouriel Roubini known as Dr. Doom had to say, 

 As expected Bitcoin now crashes below $6000. Now the $5K handle is reached.  And the US Congressional Hearing on Crypto-Scams is still a day away.  HODL nuts will hold their melting Bitcoins all the way down to ZERO while scammers and whales dump and run... 

Joe Davies backed him up with these naive words

 “I see a decent probability that its price goes to zero.” 

But there were some folks with brains that believed Bitcoin is never going to zero. 

 “When we first pitched my company Lightning Labs, we actually took the word ‘Bitcoin’ out of our deck and our marketing material because it was so much about blockchain. Now, I feel like we’ve entered into a ‘Bitcoin, not blockchain’ world, where people understand the value of cryptocurrency technology and what these can bring. You also have proof-of-work in Bitcoin, you have the public/private key cryptography. There are other things that make Bitcoin special. Somehow, the blockchain part got separated and became a thing.” 
 “We have seen that these technologies are quite robust. Chains do not just disappear, they are resilient and stick around. Many of us spent years proselytizing for these technologies in general and Bitcoin in particular. As a result, it had immense goodwill and brand recognition built around it. So there will always be a community around the brand that will ensure that that chain makes progress.”
