I agree with your point,but the countries that impose bans over cryptocurrency,usually aren't banning the cryptocurrencies(the blockchains).This means that it's not illegal to own cryptocurrencies.
They are banning cryptocurrency mining and (in some cases) crypto trading.
No blockchain has ever been banned in any country in the world.
It has been said many times that governments aren't hostile towards blockchain technology.They can be hostile towards crypto mining and crypto trading on unregulated platforms(that end up being scams).
Internet phone software was a technology,cryptocurrencies are an asset/medium or exchange.
We have to distinguish the technology from the financial asset.

Are you talking about the post-pandemic era?
I actually expect the global economy to recover pretty fast after the pandemic is over.There will be high levels of inflation,but sometimes inflation can a serve as a booster of the economic activity.I'm sure that the central banks will find a way to put inflation under control.
What will happen to Bitcoin?Well,I think that Bitcoin is still bullish in the long term.It doesn't matter if the global economy begins a new era of rapid economic growth or we face a sudden economic collapse after the pandemic.
In both cases Bitcoin will be a desirable financial asset.

Everything in the universe has a beginning and ending.Nothing lasts forever.
Thinking that Bitcoin will last FOREVER is simply naive.We can't be sure about how long the human civilization will survive.Will it continue for the next 100 years or 5000 years,or maybe 100000 years.
Technology is getting obsolete way faster than before.17 years ago,a company like Myspace was dominating the social media.Myspace is gone now and Facebook and Instagram are dominating social media.
Bitcoin can be replaced by a better payment system,if such system occurs.

It's a pain in the a$$ to have 10 bank accounts and to use some of them for your crypto purchases.
Therefore,I decided to never buy Bitcoins from platforms like Coinbase or Binance.
I don't want my bank accounts being blocked for some stupid reason,like buying Bitcoins.
Perhaps I will use services like Localbitcoins and Paxful.The fees are higher,but the process of buying Bitcoins isn't so direct.
Binance will become FCA regulated sooner or later.I don't like them,but at least they are trying to comply with the laws and regulations,just like every big company.

We can't be sure about the global population in 2140.It might be 14 billion,but it might go below 7 billion.
Elon Musk was talking about a possible decrease of the global population in the next few decades.
Other digital currencies won't assist Bitcoin.They will compete against Bitcoin for a bigger market share.
Bitcoin was not meant to be equally distributed among all the people in the world.Why do crypto newbies keep asking that question? 

This is feminist propaganda and nothing else.
Is anyone or anything stopping women from trading cryptocurrencies or having a Bitcoin wallet?I don't think so.
The cryptocurrency industry is male dominated,because men are usually more tech savvy and more interested into financial stuff.Women are more than welcome in the cryptocurrency world,but it's not our problem,that the vast majority of women don't express any interest in digital finance and blockchain technology.

How do you define the term "practical value"?
If you think that there is such thing as "practical value",then what about "theoretical value"?
I assume that by practical value,you mean utility.Bitcoin is not a utility token and it never will be.
What do you mean by "storage value"?Simply storing Bitcoins in your wallet doesn't mean that their value will increase.Bitcoin is not a bank deposit or a savings account.
The value of BTC is defined by limited supply and increasing demand.BTC value=scarcity.

The current Bitcoin price fluctuates between 31K and 35K USD.I wouldn't call this a big fluctuation.Actually,the Bitcoin market is pretty calm right now.Only the total newbies would freak out,when the Bitcoin price drops by 5-10%. A real trader has a plan or a strategy.A newbie trader simply follows trends and gets surprised every time,when the trend shifts to an unexpected direction.
A real trader cannot be overwhelmed by price fluctuations.The problem is that almost all cryptocurrency traders aren't real traders.They are just amateurs and wannabe traders,who are pretending to be professional traders.

I guess that the decrease of mining difficulty will decrease the transaction fees for a while.
This can potentially boost the transaction volume so more people will move the Bitcoins,that are sitting in their wallets,instead of HODLing them forever.After all,owning Bitcoins means spending them for goods and services,not waiting for the Bitcoin price to hit 1M USD somewhere around 2038 and selling those BTC for fiat.   Satoshi would be disappointed,if all the bitcoiners are simply waiting and HODLing.
However,I don't believe that a new FOMO phase will start anytime soon.

I don't think that the departure of Bezos has anything to do with the global 15% tax initiative.
He's just tired and wants to focus on other projects.
I also don't think that the Amazon business model will change.Letting people and companies re-sell cheap stuff imported from China?Sounds like a great business model to me,unless Alibaba steps in and starts competing with Amazon.
Was Amazon even profitable after all those years?Is Amazon a giant tech bubble,that is about to pop?

I think that you are wrong about this.
1.The concept of a currency,which is not created and owned by the government exists way before Bitcoin.
2.Paypal(digital currency) existed years before Bitcoin was created.
3.What do you mean by "everything changed"?Nothing has changed after the birth of Bitcoin.Fiat still dominates the world of finance and it will continue to dominate in the upcoming several decades.
Bitcoin changed the lives of a few million people around the globe,but that doesn't mean that BTC "changed everything".

I trust the banks in my country and I also trust Bitcoin,which means that I trust my self and my BTC wallet.
I certainly don't trust cryptocurrency exchange platforms and crypto casinos.
Bank deposits in my country are guaranteed by the government to a certain amount(100K euro),so my money are safe,even when the bank goes bankrupt.I'm not sure about whether or not my bank will try to scam me.So far I've never been scammed by any bank.I can't say the same about crypto exchange platforms or crypto casinos.

At this point,we are just speculating about what will happen to Bitcoin in "insert random year of the future"?
Satoshi was wrong about this.Thinking that it's going to be either one outcome or the other and nothing in between.I think that the Bitcoin transaction volume in 2029 is going to be a little bit higher than 2021,but nothing drastic.
We don't know what does Satoshi meant by "very large transaction volume"?Is the current transaction volume of Bitcoin very large or is it medium?

To be honest,I don't care about what will happen to Bitcoin in 100 years.
Bitcoin might upgrade and turn into Bitcoin 2.0 or Bitcoin 4.0 after several decades,or it might be dethroned by a better altcoin or a new technology.
I don't believe that anyone would wasting be energy to mine Bitcoins on the Moon or Mars.Electricity that is produced on the Moon or Mars would be very expensive,so mining won't be profitable and also I don't think that the people,who will colonize the Moon and Mars would need cryptocurrencies to pay for goods and services.

Не разбирам въпроса.Какво значи “крипто акаунти виртуални IBAN“?
Искаш нещо средно между банкова сметка с IBAN и акаунт за търговия с криптовалути ли?
Защо подобни акаунти да се купуват и продават?По принцип акаунт или сметка може да се отвори безплатно.

I cryptocoin is just a tool and cannot be "compliant with federal regulations and laws".
I guess that this congressmen is talking about companies,that operate in the cryptocurrency industry.
Most of the cryptocoins/crypto companies are already complaint with federal regulations and laws.
Only privacy coins like Monero will face some problems with the law.


Anyone involved in anonymous crypto transactions will be suspected for criminal conspiracy.What?
This is means that everyone is guilty,until he/she proves his/her innocence.I guess that USA will throw the presumption of innocence into the garbage.This is a violation of basic human rights.

This is a clickbait article with a misleading title.
The Vietnamese prime minister wants the central bank of Vietnam to launch a blockchain-based cryptocurrency-which means anther central bank digital currency(CBDC).CBDC have nothing to do with crypto.They are just mimicking cryptocurrencies,while staying centralized and fully controlled by the government/central bank.
This doesn't mean that Vietnam is becoming open towards cryptocurrencies or "turning into crypto".
I don't expect Vietnam to become crypto friendly,as long as China remains hostile towards the crypto industry.Those two countries are connected by the same ideology.

The People's bank of China can't compete with the Federal reserve,when it comes to quantitative easing.
The Federal Reserve can print unlimited money,while PBOC have to rely on it's currency reserves,in order to inject fresh money inside the Chinese economy and financial sector.
I don't really believe that Chinese economy will suffer after the pandemic is over.I actually think that it will be quite the opposite.The global economy will recover from the pandemic,which means that the global demand for Chinese goods will increase.

People,who are comparing cryptocurrencies to the early internet and usually comparing the dotcom bubble with the cryptocurrency price bubbles.They are simply comparing market price trends and patterns,not the technology.
Blockchain technology couldn't exist without internet,so comparing blockchain technology and internet is like comparing an egg to a chicken.
Internet is the foundation and the blockchain technology is one of the additional layers of technology over that foundation.

OP,your post seems like a bunch of BS.
Bitcoin is the ONLY thing that humans cannot control?The ONLY THING?What about the weather,mother nature and the universe?Can humans control everything in the universe?
Humans can control the BTC blockchain,if there's consensus.
Humans can control the Bitcoin price(to a certain extend).This has been proven many times before.
Bitcoin is not some kind of deity or a monster.It's a system,which is created by humans and controlled by humans.BTC is not a supernatural force.
