So, anyway Nostriches....putting aside all of this, it's pretty obvious that we're winning.

We might be winning but the war is far from over. So in the case of WW3 do we coordinate a worldwide Nostriche/Bitcoiner migration and we all move to Texas? where is the safest place to be for bitcoiners? Is there a citadel yet?
I don't think we need to worry too much about a doomsday scenario just yet. On another note, i also doubt the US will be the first to widely adopt Bitcoin, i am thinking about the other 180+ countries where a shift is more likely to happen within the next 10-15 years if not sooner.

Depends on where the fronts are. Assuming the US opens one with China in the Pacific, I’ll be getting out of Aus. Not because I think there will be guerilla warfare on the streets on Melbourne, but because we are entirely beholden to the fuckwits in the US Government and will send troops wherever they demand. Who knows what that looks like..
Vietnam/Thailand if feasible. El Salvador is the most citadel like so I want to visit there soon. Texas, Florida, Wyoming (despite the Feds) also options.
I like the way you think
This is killing the altcoins .... they can't shift money this easy....
At the moment we're winning but the battle hasn't really begun. Govs have not put max pressure yet. Imagine when they make it illegal for app stores to to host btc wallet or nostr clients and when they force ISPs to blacklist all know relays. It's not the end, for sure, but it restricts a lot the captive audience because the truth is most people don't give a fuck about sovereignty. People whose well being crucially depends on sovereignty tools, like it may be in Africa, Latam or parts of Asia will stretch to keep connected, but I'm really not sure about the Western world.
With that said, every day that passes where we are able to build more stuff, we are definitely stronger. The longer we remain under the radar, the better the odds
Any decentralization will win in the end
