Although I agree with the sentiment, I really think we should be pushing more of a 'you do you' kind of thing.
Possibly you want to hold, I want to trade, and that other person over there wants to get BTC so he can buy stuff.
We should be helping people do what they want with no preconceived notions.
Yes, we can point out the good / bad / ugly of what they may or may not want to do. But beyond that, it's their coin. Do with it as they want.

Absolutely, a person can have the freedom to have his/her own Bitcoin lifestyle and have his/her own attitude/purpose. But I believe it's undeniable that Bitcoin will always be something political, because by its very nature, the way it was technically designed, its features have the ability to weaken and break down political strongholds and many people have not truly understood that. I believe Nayib Bukele did.
Yes, It represents a significant change in the way we think about money and its role in society and Nayib Bukele, president of El Salvador, realized this potential and made history by becoming the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender. Another reason why Bitcoin is not simply an investment is because it has the potential to reshape the current financial system.
My reason Traditional financial institutions have long monopolized the global financial system, creating barriers to entry for many individuals and communities. This means that more people adopting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has the potential to shift the balance of power away from centralized institutions and toward individuals and society.
