Seriously, though: having globally accessible, indelible and irrefutable shared ledgers containing balances which cannot be forged, whose operation cannot be stopped by any malicious, busy-body bureaucrat? This is a God-send. It is already the gold-standard for international payments for me, a small computer consultant.
Think of all the poor slobs in Russia who've been steam-rolled by these sanctions, and can no longer sell their software or get paid for their little Apps. Whatever you might think about Russia -- "group punishment" is not cool; these are people like you and me who cannot now feed their families. To them, Bitcoin (and other even more capable cryptocurrencies now in development) is the difference between life and death.
So, it might be worthwhile to ... reflect, if we find ourself agreeing with the obese head banker at BIS or weird Klaus Schwab, when they say they want to control all aspects of personal commerce. They can pound sand -- I'm going to continue to work to move cryptocurrency technology forward.
It's clearly better when instead of bankster elites we would be controlled by some shady scammers sitting in the non-extradition offshore. Truly a revolution in finance.
