I agree with you. But I'm also aware that a few hold 80% of the global wealth. And I think they will use that to try and gain control. Be that, arresting people (see India) or "outlawing" or "regulation" or media..... I feel 100% they will TRY.....I also think they will fail. But $$ talk and can make an impact re mass market.
Imagine being told by CNN you could be arrested for eg reading wikileaks..... 'they' are big & powerful and aim to control the mass. for their own benefit.
I have zero BTC (no money to buy any :-( ) but I do have popcorn :-)
