I have been planning to create this thread for more than three months but today I decided to drop the thread.
When I was a little child, Missionaries like Jehovah Witness Brethren and other Pentecostal Church preachers who was preaching the Holy Bible says, time will come in the whole world that everyone will use ONE CURRENCY and anyone who refused to use that currency can not buy things in any store. And the way BITCOIN is, it is accepting by the whole world. And Bitcoin is growing step by step.

First of all, I don't believe that they're preaching with those statements above especially with Jehovah's Witnesses because what I have noticed is that they're preaching the good news in the God's Kingdom based on the Bible. There's no specific sentence in the Bible that say we're going to use one currency.

Anyway, If the time will come that we the whole world use one currency, I don't believe it's Bitcoin. Because what I have observed is that the government usually hates Bitcoin since they can't control it and they don't know who the person really is who made a transaction. If they're trying to hold a group of people who are hiding for buying foods, Bitcoin is their life saver.

If you remember what happens to WikiLeaks before, the government blocks them for receiving a donations from visa and mastercard, because this is what they can control. That's why WikiLeaks find ways for receiving a donations that can't be controlled by the government, and that is Bitcoin.

Bitcoin was made for us against the government who are trying to stop us from doing things they don't want to.

So if ever the world is going to use one currency, I believe it's not Bitcoin.

I find your stance intriguing, yet I am compelled to disagree. While Bitcoin's decentralized nature challenges governmental control, this is exactly where its beauty lies. Bitcoin symbolizes our strive towards cooperative independence, marking a creative disruption in our financial system. Take the WikiLeaks instance. Bitcoin proved to be an effective tool against censorship, ensuring financial freedom. This isnt about undermining the government but advocating for the individual's rights.

Government's apprehension towards Bitcoin is not a fatal flaw but an indicator of its disruptive potential. Yes, Bitcoin's creator is unknown, and transactions are anonymous, but isnt that part of its appeal? Admittedly, the journey towards a single global currency is filled with roadblocks, skepticism, and pessimism. Bitcoin, however, has already transformed the way we view money. So, even if the future universal currency isn't Bitcoin, it will be something that inherits Bitcoin's spirit of decentralization and freedom. After all, the future isnt something to be predicted - it's something to be achieved.
