I have only gained good things from cryptocurrencies (they have changed my life for the better), however, I am frustrated at those who are in for money, and only money. They hurt themselves as well as cryptocurrencies future. I am sad that I still can't use bitcoin to purchase the things I want, as it isn't used as a payment currency/method. I am sad that there are big financial institutions that want (and do their best) to wipe the crypto world out, and instead of working together as a crypto-community to thrive, we are fighting, arguing, and scamming each other. Where I live, the government relentlessly tightens and destroys our financial livesI was lucky to have found salvation in cryptocurrencies when others struggled.
We need to show the world that we are not just a bunch of wanna-be millionaires, that we actually care.
Well we cannot really blame the people who just join and promote bitcoin as a source of income because like you they just also found bitcoin as a saver in financial status. However I somehow agree to you that people should change. Change the way they think about bitcoin. They must see that it is also and firsly a digital currency before being an asset. People need to change for the better so don't fear the change because it will lead to the betterness.
I agree, but we still cannot change and force everyone to change their understanding and thoughts about bitcoin and its potentials. But it still good to know that there are still some people with different understanding about bitcoin.
