This is a lie and the position of a bigot and maximalist, it doesn't reflect the actual reality. I ignore such statements immediately I see them.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=21702.msg272976#msg272976

Then I asked my self: What if one day, the world wakes up and Bitcoin is not just an asset anymore but the global reserve currency?
Not just some side thing to hold, but the real deal, the main way countries keep their value, pay off debts, and even do business with each other.
I also look forward to that day, I will be very happy. Unfortunately, it will not happen, the government wants control, and Bitcoin will not allow them. The best is the proposed strategic reserve. Have you ever wondered why "strategic" is added in that reserve?Not just some side thing to hold, but the real deal, the main way countries keep their value, pay off debts, and even do business with each other.
