i disagree with this magical thinking about bitcoin alone changing everything
partly, it is going to be because it empowers a lot of good people
but what they do is what will cause the change not the simple existence of bitcoin
they will move their money to places with the weakest governments, and fund campaigns to make them disappear and be replaced with a polycentric legal system, and voluntary, non-aggressive defense, and then after that, the techniques will be replicated in nearby places and the more it grows the more powerful efforts to find, try and convict the criminals will become
because that's really what it's about, criminals run governments, because they are a convenient lever of power, and centralization is why, and this is what has to end
