I don't follow your logic, but if you think adoption is a bad idea, then your best plan of action is to create your own coin and don't tell anyone else. That way, while everyone else suffers from the curse of adoption, you will still enjoy the benefits of a coin that can be used only by you.
This is a nice answer with a touch of humor. Enjoyed reading it. Thanks, odolvlobo!
Just want to add that we shouldn't be afraid of wider adoption nor of emergence of new altcoins with good qualities. If you believe something is good, it shouldn't be hidden in order to remain good with the lack of pressure or competition. I'm sure Bitcoin will survive any kind of pressure from governmental structures and will win any competition.
