i thought it was originally designed to just be a way to transfer digital cash in a decentralized manner but it seems like people don't really care about that part of it and all they care about is what its price is. seems they got the wrong idea of bitcoin.
I mean, most of the people started looking into cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin is to get more money and do some investments. Whether it's from medias, friends or just articles, most of the time they mention it like that. It's difficult to change the mindset of those people if more mainstream medias looking at that kind of perception in the first place.
