There's a small % chance that the idea we all had about what Bitcoin would become, doesn't transpire. At least for a long time. Instead, Bitcoin essentially gets narratively controlled for the public, the elite and bankers fool everyone to control most of people's holdings, and Bitcoin replaces S&P portfolios. The banking institution could plausibly keep the price suppressed for long spans through market overselling (to each other, or through opaque markets) so retail fights it out and sells coins to institutions further centralizing holdings.. There's a small chance, say 15-20% that Bitcoin just becomes new Gold for banks mainly. No huge pleb revolution. No millions of node runner etc. This is a real plausibility.
