    How does this currency pan out if the government institutes a "great firewall", like another country we know?
    With btc the power is transferred back to private control instead of gov run presses. I wouldn't imagine the gov will appreciate losing that control. Does something stop them from just...taking that control back at some point? What good is a currency if your access to it can be controlled?

      @Cole-Con O The best investment advice is to put your money into things that change the way people live for the better. Bitcoin will be the reserve currency of the cyberspace, so hold that long term. Ethereum is interesting so buy a little of that. Otherwise, inflation goes up every year, so capital injection will always occur in many assets, and the rich will usually invest in things that change the way people live for the better, so that will raise the price too. Buy in and hold. Buy every dip. The majority of things are not to invest in, just a few. Look at what each company etc is doing, ignore what they say. ie. Cardano is like ethereal but open source, so that seems cool, which is why it's rising, but in actions, nothing much is happening and they are still too slow etc. so don't buy that. That's all

      The block size is supposed to stay small to ensure decentralisation, and Blockstream exists to help make Bitcoin available everywhere at high speed. Different chains also exist with various fee structures (ie. long term investors vs traders).
