The Future of Bitcoin: Adoption, Projects, and Ethical Considerations
Looking ahead, Michael envisions Bitcoin as not merely a digital currency but as a technological backbone for global financial infrastructure. He advocates for massive adoption among nation-states, banks, and corporations—mixing economic pragmatism with ideological support for sovereignty and individual empowerment.
He emphasizes the importance of building a culture of conservatism among developers to preserve the network’s integrity—favoring stability over rapid change. He warns against attempts to alter fundamental properties like block size or consensus rules without broad consensus, equating such acts to rewriting laws or destabilizing a nation.
