I have a question, what will happen if a mining pool overtakes the majority of the total hash in bitcoin network?

No, the bitcoin network just resides along with Internet.  I would say no one controls bitcoin system.
Only some group of people may control the bitcoin prices some times. But that does not mean controlling the total bitcoin ecosystem. In a decentralized environment there is no central power to control bitcoin. it's a free system, exists as per initial protocols by Satoshi.

Donald Trump will soon control all Bitcoin.

The only way he will be able to do that, is if he has the money to buy it or all the mining farms. In my opinion, he will not become the president of the United States, if that is what you are implying. He could not control all Bitcoins, even if he became the president.

Most mining farms are located in China and other countries, not under the control of the United States. So this will not be possible, even if he wanted to own it.  Tongue

Bitcoin is the only currency that isn't controlled by anyone and hence the Government hates it as it's the users who control their own coins whether in a bitcoin bank or bitcoin wallet. They aren't regulated as well nor they are taxed which makes it a users driven currency unlike dollars.
correct.
bitcoin does not have an owner. bitcoin decentralization, so no controller will use bitcoin, so you will be free of tax, if you're using bitcoin Cheesy

There's no one in full control but let's wait if someone/company get a hold of 75% of all bitcoins then probably in control in term of bitcoins value. There's no one that actually controls bitcoin but someone can control its value.

No one supposed to control it but it seems the large Chinese bitcoin community is having an effect on the price due to their numbers.
Yes, the Chinese markets do have a significant impact on the price but even other exchanges affect the price fluctuations. Bitcoin is therefore controlled by a number of factors that alone affect it in a way whether it's miners, developers and end-users.

The people with the highest consensus controls Bitcoin ... Some says about 75%+ = consensus, so for this debate, let's leave it at that. Anyone can

submit changes to the code, but for that to change permanently you need majority consensus from other people willing to run that code. There are a few

developers with commit access, which was handed down by Satoshi.  Roll Eyes

hmmm that's what i think

I think network of bitcoin who control bitcoin  Roll Eyes
What network? miner or somebody else?

as far as i know that bitcoin is decentralized but i feel like bitcoin is controlled by somebody i dont know why

It's not controlled by anyone and hence it's volatile in nature. That's a good thing as well as bad as anyone can open a bitcoin wallet without any verification and this makes it risky as well. The prices are manipulated by exchanges/markets and the coins in a wallet are controlled by the owner of the wallet via a private key.

You control your bitcoins in your wallet, other than that it's "for the people, by the people, of the people"

Miners/developers may have some control over the course of bitcoin? Not sure..
