The most real reason that can collapse bitcoin is the rate of increase in the size of the blockchain.

Definitely not, the blockchain is just a database. There are companies with databases that are 1000 times the size.

Disk space is extremely cheap and it would cost only about $500-$1000 per year to upgrade.
