all of your example are agency or industry that have build somethings commercialized and exchanges by fiat currency... now we are talking about the sostituion of the fiat currency (government) with another system where the government cannot put their hands over... i am pretty sure that the government isn't be happy of this and will block all the ways (like facebook's coin).
@tybiboune
the value depend totally by the folks... if there is guys that spend 1.000$ for an iphone the next year the new models will cost 1.100$... but if nobody bought it for 1.000$ the price will decrease... the value is important but is a objective and subjective things at the same time... i will never buy an iphone, for example, for 6M upx or 3M upx now because i feel to believe in this project that i will prefer hold my coins today for will buy more tomorrow.
my mind is in contrast, I believe in projects and ideas but I have no vision of where they will be in the future ... this at the same time excites me.
You've got a good point about the governments' opposition to this trend... And the facebook example is a very good one, because facebook was to become probably the most potentially spread crypto ever, with the current app adoption. That's probably why govts jumped on every possibility to shut it down before it's even born (let's not be naive, if those big partners suddenly decided to get out, I'm pretty sure that's because of governments' pressure on them.)
The same way as the US govt used pressure on the US big companies to force them stop doing commerce with China is quite a blatant proof of that control.
If the governments continue that way, how do you see the future of all cryptocurrencies projects that are not backed and supported by banks / govts already? And anonymous, moreover... Aren't we in a huge bottleneck?
I mean... as soon as uPlexa gets the worldwide spread potential adoption it deserves, the govts will probably decide to act as they did with facebook's libra. If they force Google & Microsoft to "block" everything uplexa-related, those big industries will have no choice but bending.
How do you see a future for this?
i want reply at your question with another question... How you can stop something that cannot be stopped because you don't know who there is behind? the most important or maybe the fundamental force of BTC is this... nobody know who is behind and nobody can be multed, taxed, arrested or killed for stop it... one of the more important state or governments will can denied BTC on his country but this will sign the growth of the others. all the others project for survive must agreed the therms of his existance with the governments... sad story tonight, maybe too many beers.
