To th3 first question, the latter is more true than the former. We live in an anarchy in which the strong gangs have already won.
To the second, neither, but I'm an outlier on this. Bitcoin is great, but Bitcoin is destined for collapse. Explanations of this are in my pu lic bookmarks.
> My belief is that small governments are good and necessary things, and governments will not allow themselves to lose revenue in any significant amount, so bitcoin can't grow much larger unless it embraces KYC
Your assumption here is that governments are omnipotent. We live in an andversarial game with governments. It must be this way or it won't stay small for long. The goal has to be to take it's power, because it's goal is absolute power.
