I don't know what I don't know but how I see it playing out is that,

they could vilify any native use cases for Bitcoin as being the wild-wild west and regular people who aren't in Bitcoin conversations (like we are) will be non the wiser.  While these same regular people are being pushed towards controlled systems like the "bitcoin dollar", propaganda could make us look like villains for choosing a different system.

While Bitcoin might be inevitable, having the masses blame us for the break down of the fiat system will turn them against native-use cases of Bitcoin rather than embracing these use cases. In that case, no one really case about the wealth of villains. Wealth confiscation might be rampant. 

Just my thoughts. 

 I agree with you! I think most of what you say WILL happen. It's already happening.

I'm just more optimistic we will win because they can't control us.

This may take a generation, I don't know. It depends on how fast the current system self destructs. Which it's doing. OH - and the current "Lords of Finance" (central banks and their leaderships) will at some point BLAME #Bitcoin for their negligence. It's coming!
