I joined the BTC movement late, around 2013/2014 (no, I don't have tons of BTC, don't waste time trying to scam me) and I remember the excitement when there were new ways to spend your BTC. Maybe a new store accepting BTC, maybe a new way to sell your stuff for BTC, etc.
Nowadays all the talks are about storing your BTC and hope they go high like crazy. I get it, but that's a pyramid scheme, it's not a digital money revolution.
What solution do you have and why do you seem so cynical about the progress that bitcoin is making. Not everyone has a large amount of bitcoin but some people are trying to get bitcoin by any means now because they realize that bitcoin is the best. If not save then buying something with bitcoin is not seen as familiar in most countries so it takes time.
If you understand pyramid schemes well then explain how it all ties in. Because we know pyramid schemes are one of the most common forms of fraud and where does that relate to bitcoin?
