What needs to be said when people ask these questions is “so what if we’re wrong?” Bitcoin is just code, and if we’re wrong about it, “it” being the idea that money (time and energy) should be taken out of the hand of government and given back to the people to do with what they please, then we’re wrong about that piece of code being the answer to the problem this idea was intended to solve.
These questions remind me of the scene in Ready Player One when Artemis confronts Parzival about “not wanting to lose his 💩.” The real issue is that people aren’t ready to lose their life for the potential to actually find their life.
