Sometimes I think if becoming Legal Tenders in Countries was even the motive of Satoshi?
You being your own bank is what I always represent Bitcoin/Crypto with.
What are your thoughts?
Having the same thought, but considering it as an adaption.
I am not sure if it matters too much about whether satoshi had described with specifics any of the step by step details of how bitcoin adoption would begin to eat into a large variety of social, financial and governmental interactions, because in the end, it seems pretty clear that satoshi contemplated the sound money aspect of bitcoin that involves the Gresham law dynamics in which much of all monetary value largely will end up flowing into one.. which of course is bitcoin and the soundest of the monies.. so the details along the way of how bitcoin gets there were presumed to be a part of that which would be the adoption of bitcoin by bigger and BIGger and BIGGER players.. that's how sound money works....
If satoshi is dead, he is not rolling in his grave regarding these man-made developments that you are trying to suggest to less than natural or some supposed kind of a shock..
In udder wurds, these kinds of nation/institutions/person adoption developments (building network effects) are all part and parcel of the process of eating all the less sound of monies of the world.. little by little, which are all of them.... ... and sure there are a lot of ways that value is being stored in assets, properties, commodities and other various kinds of storage mechanisms that are less efficient than bitcoin.... so in the end, to where is that excess value going to flow? Do I need to ask? The value should flow to the most efficient of the value storage mechanisms, which should largely be bitcoin, even if bitcoin does not end up absorbing all variations of value storage.
Guys, can we get back to the actually proven science and math of bitcoin's failure and its confirmed dismal price future?
There's hopium for you yet!

Even I can't be that nasty! This is as bad as I can get and still live with myself - 50 shades of green

Why not change the color of the syringe, and what self-respecting llama is not going to take his correction injection in the behind?
No need to even appear to enter any orifice.
I can see right through your little ploy Mr Gee!
Homer, why not make it green? Oh! ...and what self respecting person wouldn't want their injection in the buttocks? It's the biggest muscle in the body! It's just a pin cushion for pushin'!
Then one day when I've put a little too much sparkling water in my regular water you're going to be like... "Hey homer, that syringe isn't very realistic-looking. The tip is a little to small. Maybe it should be a little more... I don't know... bulbous?"
All right. I'll play your little game Mr. JJG as long as you realize I only have 120x80 pixels to play with before our little alpaca friend is no longer an avatar.

Ok... fair enough.
Looking good.. looking good..
I will not even venture to make any other kind of request, whether small or otherwise
(at this time.. even though the angle could have been MOAR UPpity).
I will let some other member make some kind of request, if they were to dare to even venture in such direction.
Each person is going to consider those allocations differently including time preferences a regarding how much to spend now and likely other assets/consumption goods to purchase now versus deferred gratification.
It seems the higher profile players are mentioning getting paid in bitcoin lately which is telling.
The more Celeb adopters the better.
I like the fact he pointed out he expects it to be "Generational Wealth".

Yes... the ongoing buying pressure makes a difference, including the multiple additions of newbie normies getting into DCA strategies.. but of course, the bigger celebrities are dealing with both larger amounts, and surely the word gets out when they make their announcements and their descriptions of both their motivations and the particular arrangement that they have made with their employer. The examples are surely adding up... and surely those examples have their own contagion.. like you suggest.
