Bitcoin has turned into the bank you have to go to if you want to buy altcoins

I don't understand what you mean. Could you explain?

There's often no route from fiat --> altcoin, instead you have to go from fiat --> bitcoin --> altcoin

I get it. You can't directly buy altcoins but you can always trade for Bitcoin. So Bitcoin only matters in so much as it helps get the altcoins. Interesting.

Think BIG PICTURE.  These coins are really all about Freedom - the ability to earn and spend how you choose without the .gov's of the world pointing guns at you and telling you what you must do in order to stay out of jail or get a baton cracked upside your head.

Think about that.  Freedom to do what you please with what you earn and what you own.

This is a world wide game changer.  And it has only just begun...

Sincerely I am, Johnny BitcoinSeed .com

Yes, Bitcoin was supposed to be that. Some altcoin may need to fill that role. There is talk of blacklists, the lead dev and major Bitcoin business owners are crawling in bed with government agencies. Bitcoin may have only been the necessary first step to ensure these mistakes are not repeated.
