 It's a race against time. If the Bitcoin Spot ETFs can accumulate enough to push us towards hyperbitcoinization before the UNIT launches, it won't have a chance to succeed because people around the world will recognize the singularity and move their chess pieces accordingly.  But if they launch UNIT and then defend it's value with guns in the same way that the US defends the US Dollar, it will restart the wars of the 20th century with 21st century weapons. 
 They don't need to use guns. The market will simply adopt whatever China uses, and so will you if you want to buy anything created in China.  
 That's true.
