 Let's imagine a world for a mwnt where we've won and Bitcoin is the defacto global measure of relative value...the governments of the world would work together to craft a narrative and convince the people's that the code can be changed. The majority would role with that change, because...well, since covid we all know why...and Bitcoins hard cap would be increased...sort of.

Because that's where Bitcoiners come in. We'll be the ones left defending the code, the real BTC, while the rest of the world let themselves get dragged through the grinder yet again.

Then, eventually, they'll come back again.

That's how I reckon it'll play out medium term, anyway.
