1000 years from now there will be a very harsh class distinction between those whose family's were "lucky" enough to invest in bitcoin, and then peons that fight for for smidgens. It's the peons that will be contributing to the economy with real goods and services. while a few lucky lottery winners contribute nothing to the economy.
Yep those 10 uber reach people will definetly be a big thing for other 10B. For sure 10B people will be poor only becuase 10 people have zillion $ worth of bitcoin. We should do everything we can to stop them from being rich. We all have to be equilly poor.
You have to read about all those rich families over last 2 millenia. Which of them are rich now? there is no amount of wealth that will last more than 10 generations. Your son will have 4 kids, 2 wifes. Ex wife will take half rest will be split by 4 for each son. Add a factor of 10 into calculation (or 30 for 1000 years). Each new generation will have less respect for money untill its all gone. I'm not worried that after 1000 years the successors of the current btc buyers will be too rich. In fact in 1000 years most of this wealth will be lost (by not storing private key well enought).
And inflation does not make things equal. We don't have equallity now. We have poor people, we have uber rich people.
