I would do much love this to be true and this scenario to actually happen.

I hope it will happen.

That is, Bitcoin wins, governments cannot finance wars with printed money, Bitcoin cannot be taken by force, so, as a result, there are no more wars.

But I worry it will not happen. Look, let's simplify and think game theory model.

Let's say there are two countries.

One of them if peaceful, respects human rights, freedom, protects it's citizens, adopts Bitcoin standard, has low taxes, and prosperity. People are affluent and comfortable.

But the neighbor country has a million people army, poor people willing to die, and does not hesitate to use force.

What happens? Who wins?

Even if the peaceful country has technical superiority, better airplanes, but the other country has a million army and thousands of tanks, what happens?

I don't know.

The history tells me that empires will fight for their spheres of influence.

By diplomacy, propaganda, bluff, soft power, and kinetic war.

I doubt this will end.

And I even worry that the country that does not invest in defense, will be invaded. Which may mean that taxes to fund the military are needed. Or be a vassal state, exploited by the powers.

I'd like to be wrong.

Anyway.
