The Xitter replies are all rainbows and butterflies which I think is completely naive, it’s Bitcoiners imagining their own lens and the beauty they could bring to the world rather than how the world has changed around them. Having thought a bit about the game theory of this let me put forth another perspective:

- There are hundreds of Bitcoin Billionaires

- Thousands of Hundred Millionaires

- These will be early adopters who often are quite anarchist and not fans of the state

- Their wealth is LIQUID, not like the wealthy people in the fiat system whose wealth is permissioned/illiquid

- They can now privately fund armed forces at a scale none of us have ever seen

- The world will bifurcate into Bitcoin friendly/enemy dynamics and Bitcoiners had better find themselves in a friendly jurisdiction

- US Gov will seek to 6102 companies at some point

- Assassinations/killings will be much more common

- Politicians going after Bitcoin or Bitcoiners face a completely different threat model

- Bitcoin custodians are sitting on Trillion dollar honeypots

- They are now the biggest targets on earth with their corn one irreversible block away from giving an activist organisation nation state level wealth

- Leftist organisations will be targeting Bitcoin first for taxes, then for confiscation/redistribution

- Hacks and fraud will increase exponentially

- Fiat backed by Bitcoin will be seen as a trump card to save the US empire

- No more Bitcoin conferences

- No one wears Bitcoin merch

- Square has announced Lightning payments are coming soon™️

- Peter Schiff still says it’s going to zero
