I think Bitcoins will collapse government control on economy and people in
a big way:

-Bitcoin is not created by any central bank or any government. By using
bitcoin, people are saying no to Government control on money...

-Bitcoin does not rely on banks for storage or transfer. Most of government
control over money comes through government power over banks. In most
countries governments can peek into your bank accounts, it you are not
paying taxes or something they just freeze your accounts and seize your
money. Not so with bitcoins.

-If governments cannot control money being used in their country, and the
money flow through bank transactions and taxes, there is no way government
can actually control anything that matters. A government who does not have
the power to tax people is no government at all.

Therefore common use of cryptocurrencies like bitcoin will be the end of
the state, central banks, etc.

Welcome to free market anarchy! Long live Agorism! :D
