Can someone please answer my big worry, as i'm really thinking of stopping my mining as it seems futile.
Everywhere you look there's risk. If it's too risky for you back away.
But think about what would happen if govt's decided to put all their processing power to mining bitcoins.
Maybe they will bring a quantum computer to the problem and overnight own all remaining bitcoins. Would that end the age of bitcoin?
Or start a new age?
Let's say they get a huge proportion, then what? Do they sit on them? Then what?
Maybe bitcoin is a govt. psyop. Where's the original developer these days? Maybe the govt. is mining something else while everyone thinks they are mining bitcoins? But what could they be mining? Maybe they just want to give people a reason to buy hardware? Or maybe they want to know
what's possible, collectively, by the masses.
If bitcoins worried them they would have done something by now. Right? The govt. has huge processing power at their disposal and cost doesn't ever seem to be an issue for them. So they could have done something by now. Maybe bitcoin is a proof of concept for something else? Is it something good or something evil?
