Bitcoin War

[Wexnident]

No, that'd be pretty dumb. I mean, they can just let them do what they want to do, It's not like being anti Bitcoin requires you to destroy every remnant of it from existence, just don't use it, pretty sure it won't affect you. Plus, wars would probably be a last resort kind of thing in situations where it actually makes sense, a fight between pro and anti Bitcoin isn't one of them. If wars were started over stuff like that, we would've had a LOT of wars already just because of the fact that different countries use different fiats (or even different beliefs,religions, etc.)

Do you anticipate a future in which there is a large-scale battle between pro-and anti-Bitcoin nations?


I don't believe that's a very likely scenario, but it's a concept I've had, and I'd want to hear your thoughts on it.

Thanks!

Why would there would be a war between those nation who accept bitcoins and those who do not accept bitcoins ?

This is the internal countires descsion and it has nothing to do with the outside world. However in order to build pressure on those who legalizes bitcoins, the other anti bitcoin nations may try to enforce sactions on them through international monetary department.  Even if there is a war, it wont be a  physical one.

[Ozero]

No, I don't think there will be such a war. It would be pointless. If we have different states where cryptocurrency will be allowed or prohibited, there is no point in fighting between them. The state in which the cryptocurrency is legalized will benefit from its circulation on its territory and it will be practically indifferent to it how the cryptocurrency is treated nearby. Also, the state in which cryptocurrency is prohibited for circulation will not lose anything. I see no point in starting a war with those states that have allowed cryptocurrency. Unrest can be within the state if the people are infringed on the right to use cryptocurrency.

You hear too much about that but you may not search for the other news.
Maybe there is a pro and anti-bitcoin, but that does not mean there is a large-scale battle that can happen.
So far, bitcoin can be traded in many countries and many people already use bitcoin without a problem, although maybe some people can use bitcoin as other people.
But that does not mean we will face a big battle between pro and anti-bitcoin.
So I advise you to calm down and not just trust the source of what you read but search for more information will be better than filtering everything.

Why would countries need to have battle after realizing that crypto (bitcoin) will bring help to their country and economy?

I'm sure they will be adopting this than battling for this.

Bitcoin maybe still in process of acceptance but most of the countries that had realized that is now making their way investing here.

[davis196]

What do you mean by "large scale battle"?Do you mean a real war?No,I don't think so.
Even the so called "pro-Bitcoin" countries aren't that "pro-Bitcoin"(maybe except El Salvador).
They are more like neutral and liberal towards Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies,but that doesn't mean that they actually like Bitcoin/crypto.No country in the world would bother fighting for Bitcoin.
There's always a possibility for the pro-Bitcoin countries to become anti-Bitcoin.
El Salvador turned into a pro-Bitcoin country only because the president of El Salvador is a hardcore Bitcoin maximalist,not because the people of El Salvador are really fascinated of Bitcoin.

[Artemis3]

Not a war, but the pro Bitcoin countries will see increased wealth, such as El Salvador.
If there comes a world crisis, product of the collapse of the USD and other FIATs, this might become more evident. Could it cause some jealously enough to warrant war? I doubt it, but who knows.

Are you thinking that there might be a time when countries go to war because of Bitcoin Neh, that is not happening regardless of how wants to adopt Bitcoin as a legal tender or not or even those that just accept to allow its trade as an asset even if not as a legal tender. I don't think Bitcoin is that type of asset that can lead to that and besides, how many percentage is left to mine anyways that they will want to fight over.

[coupable]

I doubt that such a scenario could happen sooner or later.
According to the human history, wars are made for energy resources including foods. Bitcoin and other forms of symbolic value like bitcoin and paper money are not resources of energy. In addition to the fact that anti-bitcoin nations (if any) won't be that dumb to start a war against those using bitcoin ; at worst scenarios they can apply sanctions but i also doubt it to happen.

[fiulpro]

Countries going in political war is pretty much it for most times and they are generally not going to take it that far for something as trivial as a currency, there can definitely be nations and banks opposing the situations, for example in El Salvador as well, they were refused the loans by banks if they did not go back on their whole bitcoin economy decision. This is the kind of control that might be forced on some nations. But war is quite a bit word. Political, economical things can be very well be solved by simple laws and chats which is quite preferable

Using bitcoin or adopting bitcoin is a choice that can be taken or not. If the cons with bitcoin might just ban it without having to fight because of the pros and cons of bitcoin.
Bitcoin will not be a threat to Fiat. Fiat and Bitcoin can go hand in hand and have their respective functions.
So some developing countries or developed countries can choose what to do. adopt it or not, it depends on each regulation without having to go to war.

Bitcoin will never compete or replace fiat in the long run so there's no valid reason that everything will end up in a war between pro bitcoin and anti bitcoin. Its only invented as an asset or investment, and if the government accept it, it will be a great option for fiat. But if not, it will always retain as a good investment. Bitcoin as part of cryptocurrencies, may be considered as the biggest financial innovation of the century, but each country has their own view about that so they are free to decide whether to accept it or not.

[famososMuertos]

So we have a marvel-like ending...or DC at its darkest and weirdest. But regardless of that we have them together in a fight for the good.

I do not understand what the conflicting probitcoin countries have to do with those who oppose its use, today we are in the retrograde thinking of wars and confrontations, but I think that in the long term this type of thinking must change for the good of existence, although this somewhat utopian thought is not even seen in the near future when we have the world at the gates of a war due to differences in persistent ideas of individuals and not of groups (the people), nobody in their right mind wants a war.

Based on the foregoing, without a doubt, any principle of success capitalized on hegemony, dominance and control, questions powerful third parties who, by not having that access or losing leadership due to the use of a technology such as bitcoin, consider brute force. But come on, for now that's just a guess in the mind of someone who watches a lot of streaming on disney plus. (imo).

I've never read about a large-scale battle over any kind of currency in history but that doesn't mean it never happened before. Currency are means of exchange and it will difficult to imagine such a scenario. Bitcoin was not built to replace fiat currency in my opinion rather to facilitate p2p txs between parties who don't want government interference.
Bitcoin can not be forced on any nation either now or in the future because it was not built to enjoy government backing.

The whole world is trying their best to move to peace and live in peace. Even the ones that are having problems and war are going into peace accord. I don't think that any body or any government will be interested to fight a war because of bitcoin. Assuming Bitcoin is own by a particular country the war might come as country vs country. Assuming Satoshi is known now it will be possible to be fighting Satoshi and his country men. Now that Bitcoin does not belong to anyone how will the fight happen and who will be fighting against who? There will be nothing like international war because of bitcoin.

The scope of bitcoin is global like no country is the sole owner of this technology. So yes, I don't think bitcoin war will happen. And I don't think Satoshi will finally disclose his identity and side for a particular country. This scenario is unlikely to happen because of so many reasons. Also, humanity is trying to find peace as much as possible. We have other problems like climate change, pollution or hunger to tackle with.

I don't see it happening and it doesn't make sense for countries to go to war because of their stance on Bitcoin and BTC. The fact is that countries can choose to live without using blockchain or cryptocurrency. BTC might be considered scarce due to the limited supply but it's not really a necessity for them unlike resources such as oil.

Yes, countries can never go to war with each other just because of their stance on Bitcoin. The only thing would be between the government and the people, the government in some countries might choose not to accept cryptocurrency, but the people in those countries would fight back and still continue to make use of cryptocurrency even after the government have decided to ban it. Just like we have seen in some countries as of recent.

Take for example in Nigeria when the government banned cryptocurrency in the country, people still continued to make use of it and switched to decentralized exchanges. With the help of decentralized exchanges they were able to continue buying and selling Bitcoin without the government being able to interfere in it.

[Accardo]

You should write fictional story.

I think Op is seeing the future and anything can happen on earth if some of Nostradamus critic stories happened then, I think that something similar to what Op just stated can also come to past if the government starts to notice that the world is heading to a one currency era where the whole world circulates at one currency the cryptocurrency and the whales getting unexpected power. It sounds funny, but fiction always sounds funny but, when it comes to play people will refer back to when it was stated by someone in the forum. Definitely, non of us will be here to testify if such a war later happened on Earth though.

No there is not going to be anything as such, I think every country is free to do whatever pleases them when it comes to accepting Bitcoin or not. I don’t see the reason why any country would pick up a fight or a war against a neighboring country just because they are accepting Bitcoin or they are against it. So, every country is free to decide for themselves, if their government wants cryptocurrency to be legal and allow people to make use of it, then it would be like that for them, and if their government also doesn’t want it to be a legal asset or currency in their country, then it’s also their business.

I don't think too far as you said, because currently the battle is clearly just a discourse to give control that the country needs to be taken into account, but in the future nothing will happen because diplomacy between countries will be able to solve any trivial problems. I don't think this is a global threat to be feared excessively.
