The younger generations will be bitching about how they hate everything we do.

The central banks will be destroyed, all the 1% will be humiliated for the whole world to see.
After that we will fix the whole world so that everyone will be equal, and we use all the ex-rich bastards to do all the nasty work!

The world will become awesome that's what
A bunch of rich anarchists leading the world towards a libertarian free state with strong innovation and minimum government and strong internet freedom ^_^.
Basically the same cryto anarchists that created Bitcoin building more stuff in reality.

For a minute there I thought you were serious

I was kidding ^_^ but yah it did sound a bit serious not really sure what a bunch of rich anarchists would do

Wiki says this though
In an anarcho-capitalist society, law enforcement, courts, and all other security services would be operated by privately funded competitors rather than centrally through compulsory taxation. Money, along with all other goods and services, would be privately and competitively provided in an open market. Therefore, personal and economic activities under anarcho-capitalism would be regulated by victim-based dispute resolution organizations under tort and contract law, rather than by statute through centrally determined punishment under political monopolies.

Won't change a whole lot, but things will change.

First off, people that come into money don't usually end up keeping it.

Second, look at the Republican party right now. Continually at odds about what political stances are important, so the only "power" they've been able to muster is the power to stop some things (and even there they couldn't stop ObamaCare even though they all agreed on it). And then look at our bitcoin forums where all of these "early adopters" hang out. Do you see a lot of consensus?

How many posts are there for making mining "fare" for the little guys, basically saying they don't REALLY want a free market. Or blaming Coinbase for the loss of coins when someone compromised the victims computer. They're basically saying they want FDIC insurance.

As Ron Paul says, (paraphrased) "We won't get rid of big government overnight, but we might be able to shrink it a little bit at a time." That's what I hope for. First step, un-fund the warmongering!

What happens when *WE* are the wealthy elite?

"WE" being the early early bitcoin adopters. The pioneers. Back when this forum was full of hackers, libertarians and anarcho-capitalists. What happens when bitcoin wins, and the wealthy elite hold very anti-establishment, anti-state points of view?
