How can you not understand. Bitcoin’s main and only FEATURE is the fact than from all assets in this planet, and possibly from all assets jn this Solar System, it CANNOT be cofniscated and censored. That’s the knly reason it has any value at all, to circumvent controls. All other assets like gold, real estate, emeralds, fiat, stocks… CAN be confiscated. Bitcoin’s only unique selling point is circumvention of controls.

No, but when they can it will be too late, so systems should be transitioning NOW.

I do, I have begun accumulating physical gold, because it will spike to heaven once quantum cracks all systems.

> So...the big fish set up a plan to transition "everyone" to their new Bitcoin 2.0. (Before the supposed "quantum crypto" smashes the punch bowl.) A bunch of the little people are unable or unwilling to transition. On the day the miners stop recognizing the old-crypto wallets & keys, those all become worthless.

But that’s not the case. The should be transitioning NOW, but that’s not happening.

Also, even if it was done quickly, it would cause collapse of value.
