Obviously BTC will prevail. As always just natural laws apply : ) No one can stop the evolution.
As we already have p2p technologies like bitcoin, bittorrent, bitmessage ... The question is what is next?
Fully decentralized bitGOV?

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

Can you explain? I don't understand the concept in relation to government.

I don't think a decentralised government is possible, I think the only reason to have a .gov Bitcoin website would be for someone honest to host another website like Bitcointalk where we all just get together and trade information or goods.

I've pondered this very same question. Why do we bother sending criminals to meet up in DC? Theres only 500, they dont represent us, and the cost to have them do what they do is astronomical. Not to mention with our current government theres a central point of failure. Who would the lobbyists approach if we had a distributed direct democracy.
But theres the rub, who even wants democracy? I myself want liberty.
The most important vote is when we spend our money. Is that governance enough?

Decentralised document storage. Signed with...
Decentralised identity tokens
Will get rid of all third party validation services. Not just government, all such third party services.
Say goodbye to:
Notarised Contracts of all types Passports Professional Witnesses to Last will and testament documents Stamp duty on properties Licenses for anything Birth Certificates Death Certificates
The list is larger than what I can summon up off the top of my head. And the important question is: why? Because decentralised open source software systems that store and validate the things that these old documents are supposed to prove, well, they can do the job better.
A legal solicitor is simply trusted to keep his word about any contract that he enters into, be it the correct contents of a will or the conditions of a Business Contract that they bear witness to. But they are fallible humans: offer that solicitor more money and convincing protection from the consequences of having their reputation put into question, and they may well renege the contract with the original client and choose the stitch up contract from the new malefactor client. Or maybe the solicitor will simply be coerced into reneging in one way or another.
These new systems will not renege, through coercion or temptation (given that they are designed to be secure in this way). Bitcoin is simply one implementation of this new model, but it will not be the last.

. . . To clarify, Writcoin is a protocol that exists to facilitate the creation and exchange of GE coins, the official money of the Empire. Bitcoin Core for Writcoin is a derivative of Bitcoin Core that has been adapted to Writcoin. Earth, being an anarchist despotism (i.e., a despotism wherein laws are privately enforced and which, therefore, constitutes an anarchy), has the clients of Writcoin serve as its heterarchical monetary authority. . . . (Red colorization added for this post.) Licensing, to the general public, the political power of law enforcement is about as decentralized as government gets.
