I am 19 years old Korean. I am little sad because of people's mind here. I think Korea is an advanced country and I think Korea has a higher perception of cryptocurrency than other countries. However, I think Korea is investing(I think almost speculating) more in altcoins (Dogecoin, Ripple, EOS, Quantum, Solana, etc) than Bitcoin. Their investment is around $50,000 (average Korean adult income per year). I don't understand why they spend all their investments on trashy altcoins with the money they can get from saving a year without spending a penny. $50,000 is money that adult men have to save for over 10 years in most countries except developed countries. If Korea focuses more on bitcoin investment, I think there will be a lot of new rich people in 10 years. What do you think? Koreans don't buy bitcoin, thinking there's no difference between bitcoin and altcoins.
You just gave us a glimpse of the answer to your doubts on your comment, if the citizens of your country are not buying as much bitcoin despite the potential it has to grow during the next decade then this tell us they are not really thinking about the next decade, what they want is to obtain profits as soon as they can, and in order to reach that goal altcoins seem to them as the best option, and some of those people will in fact realize their goals, but I expect the majority of them to fail and I think they would have obtained better results by taking a long term approach and invest in bitcoin.
