I agree that bitcoin is definitely in trouble if there's a powerful totalitarian world government that can unilaterally hack anything, stop any internet service via backdoors and packet manipulation, potentially break double SHA-256 encryption and send invincible commandos into any location without any kind of repercussions.
- smallmancontrov 3y agoThe US has done most of the things you are laughing off, lol. It's not common for a superpower to deploy its strength. Most of the time you would be right to laugh off the suggestion that it would. Most issues are pretty minor on this scale and internet tough guy rhetoric tends to overestimate the importance of every stupid thing. However, the BTC maximalist scenario is not minor on this scale. It's up there with oil. If it comes for the USD, there will be a fight. I would bet on BTC today (and have). I would not bet on it to win this fight.
- cupcakecommons 3y agoWhat about my post suggests I'm laughing anything off? I'm agreeing with you.
