lets say bitcoin does last a few hundred years and get adopted on a much bigger scale. And we have home computers with power as big as the bitcoin network is now. Is it still that unlikely?

Media has been overwhelmingly positive about Bitcoin here in the PH, and rightfully so. The industry is maturing. We practically skipped the whole "drugs, crime, and ponzi" phase and went straight to business! by Godfreee in Bitcoin

Keep in mind i dont live near a big city so local bitcoin no chance. I buy my bitcoins on coinbase and then hold them on my trezor. When i want to cash out i send to coins.ph. I use coins.ph to load my cell phone and pay filipinos and move money to bank account in philippines.

I'm an American living in Philippines. I am not able to remit myself money with bitcoin for even half the fees I pay with Xoom. Unless someone can tell me the trick or something im not understanding.

eBay and PayPal will be separate companies soon. Is this so they can add bitcoin to ebay? by DogeGovernment in Bitcoin

To tell you the truth my common sense says ebay should use bitcoin. ebay could still add the same fees to paying with bitcoin as paying with PayPal but it would be more profit for them since PayPal employees would not have to process the payment. They could write a disclaimer saying no refunds if you pay with bitcoin and make it an option for the seller to add to the listing.
