iirc, it's miners that process Bitcoin transactions, so if the miners all quit there's no infrastructure left to allow for the exchange of Bitcoins
Yeah but the miners will not all quit all of a sudden. If many quit but there are still enough left, the remainder will enjoy higher profits since they'll crack more blocks (iirc miners compete for blocks)
