In my opinion: Government is obsessed that they generate little or no money despite thousands of transactions happening everyday on bitcoin blockchain. Miners get the reward. If government can mine bitcoin it's the only means they can generate money from bitcoin. They can only regulate the institutions that work in line with bitcoin such as exchanges, businesses, etc. Scarcity is another reason government is working hard to control bitcoin so that they can handle huge amount of bitcoin when the 21 million bitcoins have been Mined. Can they get taxes from Bitcoin network?

It's inevitable that government will really intervene. As well as the big financial institutions. I'm half biased on this development because just like what others have said, it's really not intended to be like that.

But as bitcoin grows, we have to embrace developments like this in a positive manner. Before, it was thought and asked like what if the governments start to become interested in bitcoin. Now that we're here, I think it's unlikely that we have to turn back and return.

Lol who told you that Satoshi did not anticipate those government actions towards bitcoin? Satoshi is a Mindful person his Views in situation is far from what is the present meaning he knew this all coming and this same reason why he does not want to be on the front .
he hide His identity so he can protect his life and His family.
Satoshi Nakamoto knows all of these are coming , and He is ready how to face the situation .

Yes, bitcoin purpose is to develop decentralized currency and improve medium of exchange globally. It was also created to reduced unemployment in the world labour market so that many graduate will not be lack of job opportunity in the world. It was also created to eliminate delay in the world transaction and to bring fast and safe to people transaction in the world.

Bitcoin has developed many countries that adopted decentralized currency and they are more better than those countries that rejected bitcoin some years ago in their country. Satoshi created bitcoin to help people who cannot help themselves to grow well in the community and to leave the condition of poverty in the community.

Why the heck then some countries are considering legalizing bitcoin as a legal tender while others have already done this if no one wants bitcoin to be P2P currency but rather wants to use it for obtaining short-time gains in fiat money that constantly is depreciating and losing trust? Even more, you know what, I don't care how Satoshi envisioned bitcoin because once he left the project for the community, his view and his writings became irrelevant and obsolete. If I want to use bitcoin as an investment I will do that because no one in this world can hamper me from doing whatever I want with the private keys I myself generated and funded. But if I want to exchange my bitcoin for goods or services in a P2P transaction, I will find like-minded people who are ready to transact and can't be stopped from transacting in a decentralized currency.

I think that what happens is that in every speculative market the great whales will always emerge and as long as there are people with other visions those who have the most money are those who handle the most power, this is not only present here but in everything, we probably live where to There is a business model for everything, and everyone wants to win, very few remain with the interest of being enthusiastic or of being a Pro Technological person and/or that supports everything that has to do with progress, everything adds to the usual interest to win.

Bitcoin is a form of money that no government or bank can control. It is a digital currency that can be transferred over the internet directly between two people without going through any financial institutions .It serves as an alternative to fiat as form of digital money.Bitcoin can also be used to purchase goods and services. And lastly, it also use for investment.

Bitcoin has also a lot of advantages. It gives you a full control of over your money. With bitcoin, you are the bank. No government or bank can decide to freeze your account or stop you from receiving payment.

I personally believe what you’re mentioning is the exactly what Satoshi had in mind for its main purpose, an electronic payment system.  I’m not sure the fact that its being used for goods and services is not something he wasn’t expecting or wanting it to be used for.  I’m sure he had planned for it being used for all sorts of things.
