Will it fail to make people rich? yes. Will it fail to hold $100? probably. But it will never completely fail unless it's succeeded by a better more secure and anonymous form of digital currency.
well it will 'fail' to be what all the hypers claim it will be if its just used for anon sending. like i've said before, no one needs anonymous transactions except people doing shady shit. i love paypal and use it daily but i don't see the benefits of using bitcoin over it. i don't need it to be anon. i don't need it to be non reversible. while there may be no fees in sending bitcoins in order to buy them it costs money, time and you lose the anonymity with all the verification.
