you can't confuse me that the government aren't buying Bitcoin too, since they knew that this is the real power back to the people, something they really can't control, I'm guessing the only option they have is to join?
Government is a fixed word that will always be there and used to refer to people that are in power, these people who are in the government are not the same, always changing, and apart from the established general opinion most of the government have concerning bitcoins, they have their own personal opinions that do not always align with the opinion established by the government they work under. There is every possibility that people in government while affirming the general government stance on bitcoins, quietly have done their research and know that bitcoin is good and what they should find a way to get.
