I think the beautiful thing about bitcoin is that no matter how hard the governments try to stamp it out of existance or regulate it, all attempts have failed and will fail. You can't stop the bitcoin train!
It was time to take the concept of money out of the hands of the corrupt bankers and politicians! And we did so, or at least, Satoshi Nakamoto did. The governments had too much power over us and had to be taken down a peg.
