I think that in the past few years or so, people have deviated from the intended use of bitcoin and what truly it stands for and why it was originally created, and i think that a large portion of the user base only view it as an investment and way to make money and to profit from, and they really don't care about the fact that it changes a lot of systems that have gotten more and more corrupt over the years, and it really gives the power back to the people, and that is the idea that people should really take in consideration when investing in bitcoin in order for it to succeed.

This is a process that must be experienced in the development of Bitcoin. Most people now come to buy Bitcoin, not because they have seen its tremendous changes to human beings, but because they just want to make money through it. However, when more and more people participate, it will continue to push up the consensus of Bitcoin. What is really crucial is that a group of people who truly recognize Bitcoin are required to preach to Bitcoin and to promote the deep thinking of Bitcoin.

It is very nice to have freedom of thought. But freedom of thought is just the first step. I think it is easy to have it. I can think of anything in my mind, even the most radical of things. But then what am I to do with these thoughts when the society around me is not open to it?

This is the same with Bitcoin. It is a great technology. We have so much vision with it. We are imagining the future world with it being the main currency. But if we get out of our minds and look at the reality, Bitcoin still has a way to go in terms of being accepted as it is.

Our freedom of thought does not translate to freedom of action. And this is where we should all be focusing. We should all be free to use Bitcoin in the open.

Yes, freedom of thought is only the first step. Only when we first liberate our minds can we free our hearts. Accompany Bitcoin to create unlimited possibilities.

Before the birth of Bitcoin, we never thought that private individuals could issue currency, nor did we think that digital currency could truly be used as a payment medium, let alone the rationality of the existence of legal currency. But when Bitcoin was born, everything changed.

Private money as a concept existed long before Bitcoin, I know that Hayek envisioned them, but maybe there are even earlier examples. And digital payments have existed long before Bitcoin too.

We began to doubt the monetary exploitation of us by government agencies. We began to think about the irrationality of various centralized financial institutions. We started fighting for our currency independence. We began to use Bitcoin to protect our wealth from inflation. We began to think about all kinds of injustices in society.

It didn't start with Bitcoin, ever since the fiat system was established, there were people who opposed it.

Bitcoin is in many ways revolutionary, but it's no the first in literally everything it does.

Thank you for pointing out the problem, your language is more accurate. What I want to express here is that Bitcoin has indeed created a currency recognized by the world in practical action, and it has been widely recognized and applied. Bitcoin has inspired our minds, let us free our thinking, and make all impossible possible.
