200 sats \ 4 replies \ @0xbitcoiner 28 Sep \ on: What will governments look like when the world is on a Bitcoin standard? AskSN

The government ain't got no place in the Bitcoin standard. The minute they catch a whiff of losing their money power, they'll just straight up ban the whole thing.

We're talking about after that phase. What's next? No governments anywhere? 8 billion homesteads and citadels?

I can't even imagine a world without a government. They're way too powerful and people to dumb to just let themselves disappear. We can talk about some utopian world, but that's a whole other level, we'd be talking pure fantasy.

I'm not saying the world is a utopia, but if bitcoin survives its fight with governments, what's next? It's not an easy question to answer. That's why it's fun.

If Bitcoin actually beats the government, which I think is pretty much impossible, thoug, my guess is they'll just stick to being regulators, which is what they should've been doing anyway.
