The big question is who co-opts whom?
Does the fiat system co-opt Bitcoin or is it sucked into the black hole.
I’m betting on the black hole.
I think a Bitcoin standard is a win. This is an economic fight.
My Bitcoin will not be captured but there are people who will use captured Bitcoin. Look at how many people use Coinbase and Binance. Now imagine the biggest banks in the worlf offer those services to customers. Now imagine Visa settles Bitcoin denominated payments.
The network will not be captured. It is the individuals which can be. But that is always their choice, and even captured individuals denominating wealth against Bitcoin is a massive win. In fact, it will promote more freedom over time. Watch it happen.
