100mil will be enough because 99% of normies will never care. They are too comfortable in their invisible prison cells and don't want to climb the learning curve. For most, Bitcoin will always be just one more investment instrument, handled by a regulated entity. Especially now, when Travel Rule and AML freezes make non-custodial UTXOs scarier by the day.

That was my view as well until yesterday. But then I saw in the Boltz telegram group that people are checking UTXOs they receive in a swap against chainanalysis bots like @BitOK_AML_bot. Because exchanges use the same services for AML and freeze such deposits. I won't send my UTXOs to CEXes, but most normies will sooner or later.
