Let us not lie to ourselves about no one can stop Bitcoin adoption. The only reason why Bitcoin adoption is increasing and still doing well in the market is that the governments somehow supported it.
If the whole government of the world wages wars against the use, investment, and mining of Bitcoin worldwide there's a high chance that Bitcoin can be stopped. This is the reason why some crypto enthusiasts once were working on having land/environment that will be only for the crypto enthusiast.
Please be informed that during the early days of Bitcoin, it is not supported by the government, instead government are somehow hostile to it. It was just recently when (probably) the government noticed that they cannot stop Bitcoin from propagating that they act accordingly to the point of regulating centralized exchanges and other centralized crypto services in order to take advantage and control (at least) cryptocurrency. So I believe, even without government support, Bitcoin will continue to grow.
They may not support Bitcoin in the early days but they are not totally hostile to it if they do they would have created rules and regulations against its using trading and investment.
I will say it again, the government can stop Bitcoin if they want to. A simple ban on mining it, using trading or investing in it, and a severe penalty for anyone guilty of it is enough to do some damage to the Bitcoin market. I will say it the reason why this didn't happen because there are some celebrities and government who like Bitcoin although they may not step forward to say it to the public.

I think the reason why bitcoin is still increasing and growing stronger isn’t the government. Rather it’s the people. The people that adapt and use bitcoin are the only reason why bitcoin is increasing in popularity and getting adopted on a daily basis.
The government were all against bitcoin in its early years and discouraged their citizens from using it. So they didn’t somehow support it. I think they’ve envisaged the future and they see bitcoin in it so they’ve decided to tag along rather unwillingly. Lest we forget, the government is only there cause of the people. If the people decide to use bitcoin, can the government actually fight the people? No they can’t.
Yes, Bitcoin is increasing and going strong because of its decentralization and support of the people but I think you're missing the fact or blind by Bitcoin's potential which doesn't cross-check that if all the government of the world is hostile against Bitcoin and place a ban with the inclusion of jail penalty for anyone that mine, buy, trading and hold Bitcoin the story will be different.
Do you think most crypto P2P trading executed on Binance and other CEX exchanges is something that's not known to the government? Ask people from China how things was after their government ban crypto.

The existence of bitcoin does not need government support, but we also need to ensure that they will not be hostile and all will not join forces against bitcoin for it to continue to exist and thrive. I still believe that if governments work together, stopping bitcoin will not be so difficult but with what's going on lately, they no longer intend to prevent it, but instead, they want to control it and profit from it. The government has realized the profit they will make from the huge taxes on the market.
This is my point and they didn't achieve the one voice to work against it and thanks to countries that supported Bitcoin that's why they switch regulations but they are still debating on it
