It's difficult, although btc is decentralized when the government labeles it an asset you are within the realm of the government box. You gotta play by house rules. I guess in a way it becomes centralized with a very powerful overlord. Perhaps this will stop the whales from manipulating it if they in fact are (they probably are, those bastards look at pennies of movement as hundreds of thousands of dollars) whether new regulation will allow btc to grow or crush it remains to be seen. Don't think btc will make u rich cause we just don't know
True, though many people here in might say that it is decentralized and anonymous and cannot be controlled by the government, the fact is that small portion is controlled by government indirectly as one needs to follows the rules laid by one’s government whether they are against crypto currencies or in their favour. Government can manipulate the prices and cause panic sell if the news of ban or illegal crypto currencies in released. And indeed bitcoin and other cryptos can be labelled as asset, cause they can never be a currency till on decentralized platform and are volatile.
Its merely a store of value for many people as well as government. So invest, pay taxes, trade and stay happy that’s all, don’t expect it to be a currency.
