I’m really not looking forward to the “greedy crypto bro” narratives that will continue rolling out over the next several years. Sure, some Bitcoiners will become fabulously wealthy (and already have) and may spend their Bitcoin on 100 Lambos.
But for me, and many of us, it’s more simple. The system screwed us and generations in a way that we’re simply trying to have a better savings to pay for our overpriced college degrees, afford a house, and afford a comfortable life and support our family. Period! Bitcoin is helping me do that.
Should even more wealth and purchasing power occur, I look forward to being able to give back, as far as time and resources, as possible to my community and those in need.
And for many who may be low and working class in America, just finding whatever little savings you have to chip into owning Bitcoin. Over time it will give them the power to say No. No to staying in abusive households/relationships, no to the abusive landlord or work situation, no to a job you hate, no to government support that is tedious and cumbersome and not all that helpful anyway, and so much more. It also gives you the power to say Yes to investing your time and energy in things you want, and what brings you joy in this oh so short time we have on this earth.
