 I understand the fear of capture, but my point is the following: no one wants to lose money; I mean, the interest in a functional currency is natural and spontaneous. If Bitcoin is indeed a good or the best currency, then Bitcoin "takes care of itself," in the sense that massive interest will come naturally. Well, what if it needs attention and care to be a good money? Well, then this a problem, in my view.  
 Of course, Bitcoin may already be taking care of itself, but that is not the issue.
