I understand that this is a long game and that we are very early in the adoption phase. In fact, I don’t think hyperbitcoinization will happen during my lifetime. The existing power establishment will fight us and throw everything at us in an attempt to kill bitcoin. I still think bitcoin will likely come out on top in the end.

But I don’t believe in absolutes and guarantees. I believe the survival of bitcoin relies on its adopters / users. If the majority of bitcoin adopters grow complacent, it will not help bitcoin win. Saying bitcoin will win while ignoring privacy and self sovereignty will not help bitcoin succeed.
