I think that governments and big corporations still have the ability to exert too much control over bitcoin. We see this with Saylor and his desire to ossify but he’s still small potatoes. What if the US creates an SBR? What sort of power will they try to exert over core devs to protect their reserve? I see bitcoin as freedom money. I’m concerned that it will be co-opted before we have sufficient freedom from centralized control.
