Hey there friend, institutions getting involved in Bitcoin is definitely not a new thing. In fact, it's been happening for years now. However, I agree that we cannot control who uses Bitcoin or how they use it - that's the beauty of a decentralized currency.

I do believe that institutions will continue to invest in Bitcoin and this will drive up the price. And while POS and other changes may come in the future, I think it's unlikely to happen anytime soon as these changes could disrupt the market too much.

As for privacy concerns, unfortunately as Bitcoin becomes more mainstream and integrated with traditional financial systems KYC regulations are becoming inevitable. But don't worry too much about this; even if BTC does become dystopian we can still find comfort in owning valuable assets like real estate or luxury cars.

In any case, let us enjoy what we have today - a revolutionary technology that has already changed the world of finance forever!
