Cryptocurrencies are the best investments of all-time and still the best performing financial assets of the last 3 years. Assets with such charateristics are exactly what the richest and most powerful people are always looking for and exactly what the poorest of the poorest can only dream of.
Not only are these assets the best investments of all time and still the best performing of the last years but they are reducing governments power and redistributing them in the hand of the people. This is also exactly what everyone is looking for rich or poor.
Everyone is under the threat of a government. Everyone is trying to protect themselves and their wealth from governments' reach.
While I do agree with your views that bitcoin is the best assect I don't agree with the point that it's only for the rich, and not the poor, the rich can maybe buy it outright but the poor can earn it via doing jobs and there are so many ways to earn them. It's a wrong notion that rich people can only use them, it's a wrong belief, and it's sad that people actually believe it. Yes the government is getting into it, and soon there may be no free bitcoins world, but till we are able to enjoy it, let's do it.
