Every time Bitcoin takes a massive hit, the obituaries start rolling in, provoking a Reddit Civil War,especially across crypto forums... So, it got me thinking. When a patient is in the ICU, there are machines keeping vital functions alive, for example: a ventilator, heart monitors or IV lines. They are different systems all working together to keep the patient going. Bitcoin seems to have something similar. Even during the worst crashes, there are still completely different groups of people who continue to use it for completely different reasons.
For example: some distrust governments, some see it as digital gold, some value the ability to move wealth globally without relying on traditiopnal financial infrastructure, and also, some are fascinated by the idea of a decentralized monetary network.
Interesting is that most of these groups don't even agree with each other, but together they create something interesting. If one source of demand weakens, another often remains, that's why Bitcoin has survived so many moments that seemned fatal at the time., but maybe the real question isn't whether Bitcoin can die, maybe it s what Bitcoin´s death would actually look like.
