 As Bitcoin becomes bigger, it starts to hit and break through the "ceiling limits" others have put along the way, I called them layers. It disturbs those layers and so we get a reverb of what those layers are trying to do to either encourage it for personal gain or discourage it for personal gain. These are the layers that the players have squatted on for so long.

For those who've jumped on the Bitcoin rocket, just grab the popcorn, turn around and watch as everyone tried to figure out what to do. It's almost surreal the network effect of this technology. It's how we know it's the next evolutionary step to bring us all together again, because we don't need to do anything extra other than stack.

It's going to be a shitshow for those who refuse to learn this new tech and use it. We've seen it before. They are not left behind. but they don't gain from it, because we won't leave them behind, but they won't help themselves so they stay where they are at, weathering the storm.

As a last note, any government may make Bitcoin illegal but as we've already seen, not all will. And just like the Bitcoin rocket can take people, it can take nations... We just move easily with our wealth to whom is accepting of us.
