Theory of Bitcoin
Theory of Bitcoin is a mildly navel-gazing space for inquiring into what makes Bitcoin work as a currency, why it's a better currency than the others, and what we in a community can do to help make it better.

What today's landmark Federal Reserve speech means for money: As the dollar is devalued, Bitcoin will shine as a hedge against inflation and alternative reserve currency.
What is an actual, reasonable, and informed perspective on the likelihood and nature of America making Bitcoin, and crypto-currency in general, illegal?
Bitcoin as of recent ruling a few months ago is now considered 100% legal/valid/acceptable currency in Canada. True or False? If true, what is the ruling, and where can I find it? TIA

The Bitcoin blockchain size is 253GB now, what does this mean when cryptocurrency in general become mainstream, replacing traditional currency?
I unknowingly kept the blockchain on my computer the whole time, until realizing it today and deleted it, freeing half the size of one of my hard drives. This makes me think of what it means for the future. Crypto is not mainstream at all, but suppose that in 5 years it replaces traditional currency in some countries, the amount of transactions will skyrocket. An average person will not longer have the resources to either check the blockchain, or store it locally. Would it defeat the purpose that people will have to trust a few "centralized" 3rd parties to store and validate the blockchain? I think those parties are highly likely to be owned or controlled by governments. Would they just become "banks" like today?

In a world where Bitcoin is the currency, and a pandemic happens, the stock market crumbles, and we need the equivalent of $2 trillion dollars, what do we do?
Not saying that creating $2 trillion is a good idea, I am very against it. But the world would want to function the same (I guess) hence this hypothetical scenario.
