 The US government basically owns (it can seize it if it wants to?) the #Bitcoin of MicroStrategy, Coinbase, all the ETFs, its own stack and more. 

This is very concerning.

What have I got wrong?

 Nothing. It's what early Bitcoiners (those now in Monero) criticise.

Bitcoin is not a danger for the state. It's now a viable away to extend USD longevity.

 You are correct.

The situation is even more concerning, though.

The POTUS and the US Congress own every single American pleb. 

The Bitcoin plebs may "own" and control their satoshis, but they are themselves fully owned by the property owners. 

The 536 slave owners own "their" money, children, stocks, pension, house, guns and socks. 

Fuck.

"Your" life is a privilege granted by the lawmakers. 

All privileges can be removed.

 Well hopefully Bitcoin will fix that

But I fear they are going to do their very best to not let that happen
