Bitcoin to some extent can be the product of prestige, since the emission is limited. A work of art of the 21st century. Mona Lisa in the amount of 21 (slightly less in connection with the loss) million units. Each bitcoin is unique and each is unique. Possession will pass to the world of the rich and famous. That is, the bitcoin will suddenly become not the role of a financial instrument, and will become something more than a simple substitute for money. Ever wither away the title of Lord or Sir, but the possession of bitcoins can be a sign of new or old aristocracy. Imagine, somewhere in the year 2350 a conversation between two lords: "His family has already Bitcoin since 2010. So ancient their race cryptoendoliths". Isn't it possible? Why not. So in my opinion Bitcoin is waiting for a new round and a new transformation, this time from the financial instrument into the instrument, but rather a work of financial art.
Or not?
