Due to Bitcoin's supply issuance schedule, it's fair to say that those who buy bitcoin early achieve (exponentially) outsized gains.

Based on what we've seen so far, adoption looks something like: cryptographers -> early adopters -> suits/elite -> the masses

Given that the exponential nature of adoption and returns, doesn't Bitcoin further increase wealth equality? So that the elite are even richer than the everyone else?

To be a bit more specific, what I'm envisaging is the new world to include three groups of people, the elite (aka "the 1%" of the old world), the early adopters (aka "the 1%" of the new world) and the masses (the remaining 98% of people).

Before bitcoin maybe top 2% of people owned 80% of the wealth. But after bitcoin, perhaps top 2% would own 95% of the wealth (approx only to illustrate point).    

Thoughts?

Bitcoin making huge changes to the world economy.Still it was not controlled by any government including the United states.United States only legalize the cryptocurrency and get some taxes from it.Partially they approved the cryptocurrency.Nearly 70 percentage of people in United States had invested in cryptocurrency.If anything influenced the U.S economy,it will surely had his influence on World economy.
