I’ve seen estimates suggesting that around 200 million people own some bitcoin, but only about 10% of them hold it in self-custody.
If roughly 2.5% of the world’s population has some bitcoin, I assume they, on average, hold only a small portion of their cash in it.
So, I agree—the potential is huge, and bitcoin is accessible to anyone. 🤯
However, even if your savings increase tenfold, there are more efficient ways to build wealth.
My main point is you shouldn’t kidnap bitcoiners—there are wealthier targets out there. 🫥
