#[2] can you answer this question? It would be chaos right?

It depends on the details. Would it be completely replacing all currencies worldwide?

Yes, let's go with that since the Crypto community wants this dominance

The transition would be total chaos, but I’m not sure how it would look after. Deflation and economic stagnation would be an issue.

Most of the bitcoin is already mined and owned by someone so how it’d be distributed is a mystery.

But if people are constantly draining from the pool at a global scale to buy goods and services, the pool value must decrease right?

Hmm not necessarily.

It depends on the number of people (adoption). When the adoption is big enough, the Bitcoin currency will act as unit of account (along with other features it already has).

When it happens, the prices will be measured in sats, not in fiat, and it will tend to deflate a bit in a pretty predictable timeframe.

But we are not there just yet. ☺️
