There is nothing wrong in investing in government controlled investment provided you invested in the right sector and getting something good out of your investment, before btc becomes a thing, this same government controlled investment has made several people billionaires in their own respective ways, it all depends on your understanding and where you choose to put your money, just like government controlled investment, btc investment is not without flaws as well, even though the space is not heavily controlled it hasn't stop people from losing money to scammers, you can't deny the fact that an unregulated space as this is not crawling with all manners of scammers, at this point, this space is all about survival for the fittest and that's something some people are not willing to go through, people are more interested in secured investment regardless if it is controlled or not.

Government controlled investments have made several people billionaires? I am not sure I have the slightest idea which type of government controlled investments you are talking about, but if you are talking about bonds, the only way to become a billionaire is if you put $990 million into a bond and wait at least 1.5 years or so. Other than that what do you understand under the term government controlled?

You wouldn't blame the masses much because over the years government owned investment gave out huge ROI and had made many big players multimillionaires over the years so coming to invest in a decentralized system without government approval would possibly a huge challenge in the cryto industry.

In addition to high ROI, the government also promises very small risks as long as investors believe in them. but that's how the government controls the finances of those who invest in them. The government deliberately shows a fake sense of security and comfort so that people do not want to invest in other assets, especially crypto.

Many people do not understand why they are should have funds in government insured investments. Lets say you have 500000. Depending on your age. 400k safe 100k risky age 65 300k safe 200k risky age 55 200k safe 300k risky age 45 100k safe 400k risky age 35 50 k safe 450k risky age 25 so if you are in safe bonds right now you are losing 2% to inflation which sucks but the money is there and you know it will be there. so if my wife has a safe 401k with:400k and i have 100 k in crypto. I have zero fear about the crypto. also we are 64 and 65 so having a large safe number is more appropriate. now at 25 or 30 government bonds look bad which is why an investor that is young will do much lower % in a safe investment.

For a business.controlled by the government, the.security will be tighter.and the risk.will tend.to be lighter.than for a business.that is.not controlled.by the government, but the profits.will be less because it.has a low risk.while a business.without a government escort.is at risk.is much larger, therefore.many people invest.more in.businesses controlled.by the government with less risk

Just think about it a little. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) You know that whatever happens with your government controlled investment, you will have a safety net from that government. History has shown us how governments have bailed out Banks and/or injected millions or even Billions of tax payers money into economies to protect it. You sound very naive and under-informed on how the world works. Governments should just be the centralized workings that keep a country running - making laws, organizing taxes to support vital services, maintaining emergency services, etc. They use a centrally pooled group of funds from various taxes to achieve those aims and should be able to do it much more efficiently (because of the larger scale) than smaller regional equivalents could provide. Money is just a store of value that can be traded for goods and services in countries that accept that currency. I don't know why you think Bitcoin, which has no government centralized support, would ever be eligible to receive any funds from any government. Would you suggest that people who invest in gold are somehow compensated when the price drops? The whole idea is absurd.

Following the government to deposit money in banks will make the value of the currency will not increase and a little profit every year and not to mention if the country is experiencing high inflation, some people store it in gold and land assets but if they know bitcoin it will provide high profits.

Probably people are afraid to ask questions and will go with anything thrown at them.
Afaik in reality there are always alternatives which offer better options but we still believe government controlled investments are the best choice but this is far from being true. Our governments have painted this picture which has convinced many of us that we cant do without them but bitcoin is the answer to financial freedom

Yes but maybe they bet on the fact that nobody is going to ask a question? I mean Steve Wozniak alone could ask so many critical questions, but he doesn't. Does he not do it because he wants to not acknowledge all the things that happened without his input? Is that a personal issue?

Compared with cryptocurrencies, they believe in the government more and feel that the government is their support. If their investment is deceived, they believe that the government will help them, and the percentage of government financial system collapse is very small, but these can only be applied to some powerful ones Country, but if it is a small country, the government will not care about this kind of thing. Anyway, I still trust Bitcoin a little more.
In reality it never happens. Governments often change the policy and no one can do anything about it. Government deceive the people yet people still have confidence in them.

In reality it never happens. Governments often change the policy and no one can do anything about it. Government deceive the people yet people still have confidence in them. The government can change the policies, even deceive the majority of the people but the businesses and the people cannot put pressure on this system when the sky they live in is under the strictness of the government, sometimes truth and falsehood are mixed formulas in life, people sometimes also don't adapt to investments from the government but the common slogan in this relationship is still economy and safety. The government may not contribute much and take advantage of us but they are responsible for safety and we are in charge of making money to share with them

those who feel comfortable investing in government-controlled investments because these investments are monitored and legalized by the government, if there is a problem that can harm investors, there will be a person in charge from the government, maybe from there they judge that government-managed investments are very good. But there is a good side if we invest in Bitcoin, namely we can get very large profits from Bitcoin if there is a very fast price increase or a very high price increase.
There is no trust issue if the investments are coming from the government approved agencies or if it's supported by the government. And in that case, there's no need to worry upon investing with those typical investments. As for bitcoin, it is not a government backed investment but the returns are greater than those. While people have a lot of choices but to invest to investments that they prefer including bitcoin, there's no government that will help them with its price because it is decentralized.

They believe that government-controlled investments are safe and reliable, the government can provide security for funds. Bitcoin is an emerging digital currency. It is decentralized, not subject to government supervision and control, and its price fluctuates greatly, which poses great risks. Some countries are still suppressing Bitcoin and the government prohibits its use, so those who don’t understand will be afraid of Bitcoin, and they will choose government investment.

Yes, everyone may prefer something that looks more real, such as a business controlled by the government in particular, because the business has a lower level of risk even though the profit earned is less than the capital they invest in an investment, I think so. that's why people are more interested in getting into business controlled by the government

The decentralized nature of Bitcoin is not subject to government supervision and restriction. It also has market fluctuations and unstable prices. Investing in Bitcoin to obtain high profits will inevitably bear risks. They believe that government-controlled investment is relatively stable, safe and reliable. When there is investment risk, the government will also bear it.

Investing in government assets are mainly driven by the mentally of investors which is associated with old generations or as they are called as" boomers". I think the situation has changed a lot with the current millennial generation who doesn't like the idea of centralization that's why millennials created decentralized finance

I think you will find out that it was also Boomers who created much of the technology and infrastructure behind "decentralized finance". And if you are talking about defi,,, a lot of it is created by centralized corporates. The real defi is still the people working behind Bitcoin. Millennials only know how to follow, in general. Just take the example of crypto investors and speculators on Twitter to understand.

When something is backed by the government, automatically it gains the trust of people. Investments are always risk involved, at times firms shut and move without any settlement to the investors. If this is backed up by the government, the firms can't simply run away. This is why common people feel comfortable investing on government controlled investments.

As far as authorities go, governments are the big dogs and so investment backed by them is perceived to be safer than others.
