Frankly, I don't think they need bitcoin any more than bitcoin needs them. I think they both need each other because bitcoin wouldn't be as popular as it is today if it was banned by the government and they need bitcoin because they want profits, they want taxes.

Over the past 16 years, bitcoin has been able to grow and become popular without the support of any president or government. But you shouldn't deny the fact that the US government has never issued a ban on bitcoin and thanks to that, bitcoin has been able to develop freely until now. But if they banned bitcoin like China did, do you think bitcoin would become as popular as it is today? I believe you also know how serious the consequences would be if the United States banned bitcoin, so we should not deceive ourselves and deny the role of the government in the development of bitcoin.

Mixers and Monero may not be as big as bitcoin but they also had their heyday in the past when there was no government interference or ban. But what about now? They have almost no future with the government ban, so don't underestimate their power when this world is under their control.
