For early adopters it was easy to get more than 1 bitcoin doing small work or giving service for bitcoin. There were many bounty hunters who have promoted ICO during crypto boom and have made more than a bitcoin for free.

Most of the early investors and developers still have massive bitcoin holdings which is not good for mass adoption and price growth.

Owning one bitcoin might seems really exciting but if you are small investor you will always have a fear of lossing too much during massive dump and if you try to time the market you will end up lossing more.
