Priceless!
…but totally wrong. It neither is money, nor is it the only cryptocurrency that tried to obtain that status - others were successful!
Let’s see what happens around the coinbase reward halving in approximately 40 weeks from now.
Seriously - where does this person live? In fairy wonder land?
Governments control fiat exit gateways. Governments require taxes to be paid in fiat. That way they control even Bitcoin.
Still Bitcoin could grow, because there was an increasing fear to miss the train.
But I bet governments will start to get interested in using blockchain based transactions (or other open ledger transactions that might come) even for tax payments in the future, because it’s possible to track transactions in difference to fiat! Governments will tolerate that tech to a certain degree (allow tax payments) to track user behaviour and transactions (that can’t be tracked when cash is used). This tolerance is required to make people use Bitcoin or alike when paying for stuff instead of using cash.
Obviously schemes which don’t have pseudonymous transactions and offer privacy will not be tolerated and supported by governments!
I feel pity with this blind belief.
