how can government regulate bitcoin if shops start accepting it? Not saying they can’t but i’m just curious what this would mean.

It would not be the first time store decide to accept an unofficial currency

the us government creates an insane global appetite for us dollars. they regulate the exchange points, and it’s almost the same thing.

The US government definitely does not regulate the guy downtown who exchanges my dollars for pesos, except in the sense that they could place economic sanctions on him if they decided he was a "terrorist" or something.
