I hate to say it, but the government would more likely then say: “hey there’s a few $billion in btc we can go after now.”

Yes, my 2 biggest fears are

1.Some type of hack, although the way it works, this seems highly highly unlikely and would require an unrealistic amount of computing power, maybe something that could happen down the line if quantum computing became a thing, bitcoin still could fork around it, but it would be a catastrophe

2. The governments play, they could just institute a huge capital gains tax on crypto specifically and then we would really need to use btc to buy coffee, which doesn't work...yet

However the higher the market cap, the more influence there will be against this. Also Janet just said this week that "investors should be careful speculating on things like btc"..doesnt sound like fighting words to me. They have also put in place some crypto supporters.
