That's right, Satoshi didn't ask the SEC or the EU if they would allow him to invent Bitcoin and release it on the Internet, but let us ask ourselves one hypothetical question - what would it be like if the world's most powerful countries said NO from the beginning and banned everything related to Bitcoin?
What would the world be like in which Bitcoin is illegal, there are no crypto exchanges, there is no one who can legally accept Bitcoin as a means of payment, there are no hardware wallets... I don’t think most of us would be on this forum today, maybe because we wouldn’t even know Bitcoin exists, and maybe because it would cost a few hundred dollars, which wouldn’t interest most people.
We may disagree with banks, governments, presidents, and all the possible agencies that exist, but the fact is that Bitcoin owes its success to the fact that they have not used their power to stop it on the road to success.
