democracy promises citizens a government that is of the people, by the people and for the people which means that the people are the key element of what a society that practices a democratic government should be all about.
bitcoin serves same purpose as a currency that is of the people, that is created by a man or group of people that are concerned about the welfare of the people and that is at the same time created to serve the needs of the people and cover for the lapses of the government. a society, individual or government that believes and preaches democracy should natural want to adapt bitcoin since it aligns with her vision.
By default this is how it supposed to be, but the people will not allow for all these, the government have their own targets, they will not allow anything that is going to weak their influence and power over what belongs to other people, some things were easier said than done, they know what the people want, they even understand the fact that they themselves belong to the people, the same way bitcoin is meant for the people, but they don't want to grant this particular freedom because of being selfish and inconsideration.
