This I don't understand.
I think she was trying to say that this generation wasn't around when electricity was invented, when the first cars were created, when shells were used as money, etc. But we are here now to see the evolution of Bitcoin.
OK, if one was around when there was the gold rush or when the first Bitcoin blocks were mined easily and cheap, I would understand to be seen as a loss. But for the first cars or the electricity... nothing really big to monetize (unless I am missing something).
