At least we have a choice now, and for sure majority of us haven't heard the word "investment" prior to joining Bitcoin market. Now, everyone is talking about how good "investment" it is as it gives us financial freedom, meaning we make a profit and from that we can start to buy things that before we don't even think that is possible because we don't have the money.

I think the average of us was familiar with investments even before Bitcoin existed - for example investing in gold, forex and so on. I agree that some of us may have never invested in any asset before bitcoin - so they just started with bitcoin and diversified into some other assets. Bitcoin has provided so many returns for its investors so far - but quite a few have made mistakes that have resulted in total losses because of it.

But through Bitcoin, we learn how to save or accumulate it and then wait for the right time to sell and make a lot of profits, rinse and repeat. I do agree that fiat will still be there no matter what, but at least with Bitcoin, we have learn a lot from financial perspectives and we are making some decent profits from it thru holding and investing on it for the long term.

Yes - many of us have studied with bitcoin and may have become reliable holders despite its price volatility. Because of bitcoin many of us have become educated - of course not by force, but anyone who doesn't force themselves to continue to develop will be left behind.
