The government will never stop printing money, nor would you want that. Bitcoin's are great for online use, but are traceable (more so than current money). Hence, the government does not mind us using them.
Bitcoin's being used in stores is a complete possibility, but dollars will always be accepted (at least for the next several decades or longer). The current economic system is only sustainable will a currency the government can control. Although I dislike the idea that the government can "print money" unless the economy takes a pretty large pivot (which will take decades) at a gradual rate there will be major issues. If the change into cryptocurrencies is to fast we will see a MAJOR depression.
I would also speculate that the government will come out with it's own form of cryptocurrancy soon enough.
