How do we fight for the right to spend Sats? You mean, the government making it a legal tender?
If that is what you are suggesting, how did it fare in Elsavaldor? Any money imposed on people is as good as Fiat. Nobody deserves to go to prison for refusing to accept Bitcoin.
Bitcoin must be useful enough for people to willingly accept it as a medium of exchange. Is it already useful enough based on its monetary qualities? Yes!!
However, the fact that its value against the predominant global form of trade money (fiat) is still largely volatile, even with a government decree of legal tender, it may still not be preferred.
We need to find a way to integrate Bitcoin as the base asset used as money. Mimic them, and kick them out.

Maybe never as a MoE which is the only way it really succeeds as an alternative to fiat. As a speculative commodity it has already succeeded but in that role it does not replace or even challenge fiats MoE monopoly. Whats needed is more of us to fight for the right to spend sats and that seems a very slow process- maybe it will never happen and Bitcoin will remain as it now largely captured and controlled by the bankers and governments as a harmless KYCed and taxed speculative commodity.
