There are newer cryptocurrencies than BTC with better technology. However we often insist that BTC is "king" because of its "first mover advantage" and its greater adaption. But then USD has far far greater adaption than BTC.

Shouldn't we value more technology than adaption? Isn't it natural that in the end other cryptocurrencies with better technology will prevail?

If people value the technology, they will adopt it... It's not happening because people don't value techonology at all, what they're interested in is getting rich quick.

Don't generalized it, A lot of people still value technology. Bitcoin is in the digital world in which technology plays a huge part of it, Bitcoin's system would surely upgrade in time. Adaptation would be always a part of this world, if a person decided not to adapt, most likely he/she will be left out. Technology will not wait for a person to adapt.
