Bitcoin can have some meanings for people depending on themselves and their usages. For many people bitcoin is an investment asset just like gold they will hold it in long term to get profit out of it for many other bitcoin can be a key to freedom because they can do any transaction and none can track them ever. In my own idea, using bitcoin you can be free and rich both in same. Some other people believe, sooner or later bitcoin will take fiat's place. Generally, this can have several usage depending on yourself.
Bitcoin makes people both rich and free at same time depending on the user, presently many people are self employed with bitcoin related activities and makes cool cash even more than most companies workers, and also gives people freedom by giving them full access to their money unlike the banks, and also bitcoin gives people privacy allowing users being the only one who can access their wallet and this is why most government hates bitcoin.
