Is this what "making it" looks like? A higher price tag in exchange for its soul? What's the point if Bitcoin just becomes another toy for the system it was supposed to challenge?

Bitcoin was never a toy for the system. It is still run on a decentralized system and by miners, who maintain the network, in what way is it a toy? You guys are just overthinking and making unnecessary speculations. Even though the level of institutional and government involvement in Bitcoin investment is increasing, and indeed it is quite a concern for us, it is not like we can prevent them from investing their money in Bitcoin, because basically this is a free market where everyone can come in and invest their money. So in the end we can only encourage people to keep HODLing and investing in Bitcoin so that institutions or governments do not get a much bigger share of Bitcoin.
