We all know at the moment bitcoin is not a legal currency in the world and it has many political barriers but still it continues to grow for years among general public and the business world so my concern is how far it can go or how far governments and other significant organizations will allow bitcoin to continue its journey without being accepted as a legit currency?

The only concern would be if governments outright ban bitcoin use in their jurisdiction, but even then, these restrictions are hard to uphold because bitcoin itself is decentralised.

This is the great difficulties that many have about Bitcoin. Nowhere in the world is it totally forbidden, meaning no one will ever be arrested for buying or selling Bitcoin today.
