Thing is, #bitcoin is a monetary network/protocol that can serve the interests of your friends, your enemies, your neighbors, governments, countries, large and small businesses, churches, yourself, endowments, pensions, so on etc.

Big players to small, #bitcoin cares not who participates in the network, so long as they don’t violate the rules.

So, while the plebs use it to speculate, or to protect purchasing power over time, or whatever else, massive and small governments alike are free to participate in any way they choose as well.

If the US government decides to stockpile #bitcoin , great. If they don’t, great. In the end, #bitcoin and any prudent user of #bitcoin wins either way.
