The problem is that the big part of cryptoadopters are some kind of "investors", "traders", profit-hunters. It has nothing to do with BITCOIN.
You are particularly wrong on this. The general way of looking at cryptocurrency is that it is synonymous with Bitcoin. And if you throw your support to cryptocurrency, you are in effect throwing your support to Bitcoin more than anything else. If you have been doing some rounds here reading threads, you will feel that that the overall emotion is that they are building up their portfolio with Bitcoin having more than 50% dominance.
With this, the future of HODL is not only bright; it is getting stronger and stronger. The demand of Bitcoin is getting high and hard. Scarcity is growing every minute of the day.
