Control over the internet is strengthening every year. If things continue in the direction they are going, without any pushback from the people - I.E. the beginning of said fixing - bitcoin will be gone as soon as they realize the level of threat it poses to them.

I'm not saying everything needs to be fixed immediately, but if it doesn't start soon, particularly with stopping the buildout of surveillance and censorship online, it never will. Literally never, bar a disaster throwing humanity back to the pre-digital age or further.
