I am not anti-government, in fact we do not need to mention anti-government bitcoin, because the government is in charge. in my country the government has not been able to control bitcoin and it is still illegal. if the government stops access to bitcoin, I'm sure the government is already thinking about the best for the country and its people.

I have realized that almost every body is anti government when it comes to bitcoin and be decentralized or not being controlled by government.  Grin

Avtually i am not anti government. If we talk about bitcoin not being controlled by government, it depend on each government. Not every single government will do it.

Bitcoin is not controlled by the government. Government doesn't not get tax from it. Because be decentralized with bitcoin. People are not much interested to give tax to government. For this reason, they are anti government.
if indeed bitcoin progressed and applied tax in each country then we still have to follow it. if for now I do see that bitcoin has not been implemented among the government, because the government alone can not monitor anyone bitcoin users.

This sound strange, that people are against the government because those people have elected their governments. At least in civilized countries.
It's true that majority of governments and central banks would like to have the control over Bitcoin although I think they realize this is not possible so they are trying to estsblish at least some form of regulation. Some users see that as a centralization and control that is why they are against it. But governments can't destroy Bitcoin and after all this time I don't think they are still trying.

It seems to me that the percentage of people who do not trust their government is higher than 80%. Why is the government not people? There are only millionaires or bankers. They put a lot of money in their election campaign. Do you think that they do it gratis? Lol. I don't believe them. They all go into power with the purpose of enrichment. They do it at our expense. Therefore, I am against any government intervention in cryptocurrency circulation.

Well you have to consider that bitcoin's features bring a lot more convenience to regular people than regular banks. Banks are ran by governments and for the longest time, people didn't have any choice. Now with the emergence of btc we all have a choice

In order to understand this in the proper way, you can do the following mental experiment: replace the government with a random guy. He takes half of your money and spends it to whatever he likes. Some of it is good, but some is very bad. You tell him that he cannot do bad things with your money, but he ignores you and increases the bad to good ratio to wrong direction. What would you do?

Governments are generally not in support of something they cannot control and bitcoin is just one of those things  and  for them to entertain it whereas they have their own centralized currency has become a big problem for them.

I am not an anti-governement but mine goes too far, being involved in almost everything we are doing, and always telling you what is good for you, what is bad, what you should eat or drink, how you should educate your children ...
I'm really fed up with people knowing better than myself what is good or not for me.
Governement is normally elected to handle regalian functions: it shouldn't care about my personnal life, noways !  

Also considering the government takes about 80% of my incomes and definitely spoil it with unefficient expenses , Bitcoin is a good way to recover my lost freedom.

People don't want bitcoin to be controlled and regulated by central authorities as they feel it would be against crypto-users interest. It is a propaganda created by some people without thinking the cons of a decentralized economy.
Lets have some patience and see what steps central authorities are planning to take in order to regulate Bitcoin or crypto-market, then only we can decide these regulation policies are good or bad for crypto-users

Being decentralized and not controlled by government doesn't means that we are anti government. We are just enjoying the freedom of earning income solely for ourselves, without thinking that the salary for the overtime work just goes to the pocket of some bad officials. But it is just fine if the taxes that we pay is really for the development of the economy of a country.
It's my take too that decentralization does not translate to anti government, but people over the ages have been disappointed and frustrated by centralized ways of doing things and because that favors the governments, they let them hang in and the people had no other choice. The advent of Bitcoin however speaks volume of what people truly want and any responsible and progressive minded government should respect that if it's as they claim that they're there to protect the interests of the people.

Well, I don't think people here or people in the crypto world are really anti-government.
Maybe we should put it as people who want privacy, who are already so much tired of the current outdated system we have.
Not to mention the unbearable and extremely high taxes that the government puts on almost everything. I think it is just right to  hate the government. Amd besides, it isn't just in crypto but about everything. People will always hate amy government. That is just how people roll.

I don't think it's about anti government, it's the opposite, it's for the government, bitcoin is a form of monetary system that works pretty good for the last 9 years, so arguably you can say if a government relies on this monetary system rather than having their own, this government will be smaller and more efficient, think of it as out sourcing the monetary control back to the public, which is good, because then government can focus on other important aspects like education/health/infrastructure... in the same way you can say it will make banks more efficient, no need for layers over layers over layers, all of us can have access to the base layer and transact without any permission, banks in crypto era will become more like a utility providers, and this our primary focus on CommerceBlock to provide the blockchain infrastructure for the utility providers of the future.

I'm personally not anti government, the system itself is good but the people that run it are not. I just really hate banks. Basically banks incentivize to make as many loans as possible, that's how they make a lot of money but there is a problem with this.

''Not only are banks not incentivized to prevent an over-reliance on debt and credit, but, in the absence of regulation, the financial sector is heavily incentivized to push the economy into more, and more risky, borrowing and lending.''

Personally what I think what's wrong with banks is that they are too big to fail, meaning the public, us, are the ones who end up subsidizing the risk the banks do take.

Really anything that's too big is usually bad, big corporations are also just as bad because they are already so big that they don't need to innovate or compete with someone else, they can just buy out the competition and crush them.

Funny example with youtube and google. Have you seen how they forced everyone to have a google+ account to still use youtube? No one liked that but they were still able to pull it off because they are so big that you have to accept, that's the problem.

The main reason for the popularity of bitcoin is that the government has no control over it. It's not because all the owners of bitcoins are criminals. People are tired of lying politicians. They don't trust these liars and bitcoin gave them the opportunity to minimize the dependence on government. That's why no one wants to lose their freedom.

Yeah... But I must mention that there is not every single goverment well working. Some are good for economy, other for people and the rest are just usefull. It mainly depends on where do you live etc. Goverment is needed in every country but by the same way that picked goverment should be smart and helpful what is usually neglected. Bitcoin an crypto in general avoid in certain case the goverment or law. But to be honest only in theory in the highly developed and modern countries.

Because that is whole point of bitcoin, if we wanted to use a coin created by a government we will use fiat and be done with it, bitcoin is something different, that is why it most of the time it is compared to gold since gold is just a substance of the universe and does not belong to any government, bitcoin is just a bunch of data that does not belong to any government either and we want it to remain that way.
