A lot of very powerful people won't be too happy if that happens.
They will do everything in their power to stop it.
Or they will move their assets into bitcoin, and be powerful bitcoiners.
People who get their power from setting monetary policy, running large fiscal deficits which are tackled by depreciating the currency, etc wont benefit even if they move their assets into bitcoin. Bitcoin will remove their power and we will have a true, free market economy.
