Let me ask you a question. If you are really disappointed by all the chearl-eading for the suits and government shills entering the bitcoin space how exactly did you think bitcoin becoming used more widely would go?
- Did you think people would suddenly start valuing hard money?
- Did you think people would just stop believing in political power systems?
- Did you think suits would suddenly care about sovereignty?
- Did you expect greed to lose to moral purity?
I'm not trying to pick any fights. I just never hear many principled bitcoiners outline how they think bitcoin becomes the standard money for the world.
There's a lot of "bitcoin fixes this" but little on what the middle stages look like.
My answer is I have no clue. But I can tell you I don't see people suddenly becoming skeptical of the existing system and open to bitcoin. Greed and the utility of it as a savings vehicle seems far more likely for the US. Those in more oppressed places likely value the peer to peer aspects of it more.
