Possibly, but the thing about this whole "young people will drive bitcoin adoption" thing is that "younger people", millennials specifically don't have enough money to spend on bitcoins, let alone spend on anything no matter how we want to or how much of a tech-savvy we are. But I guess it depends on the person and his/her priorities.
Good point. But about asking their parents for initial investment?
As I parent I'm willing to give my children some money for the purpose of putting it in a investment, it doesn't matter if its crypto or in stock market. As long as their purpose is to learn how to make money then I'm with them 100%.
