I am sure I am not the first one for whom this thought crystalized so clearly, and I think Michael Saylor did say something along these lines...
If there was a time machine which could take you into the future, but only you and none of the other things including your cash, your gold, your smartphone/computer, and not even Bitcoin. But then you realize that all you have to do is take yourself into the future while your Bitcoin will travel into the future all by itself, and will be there waiting for you.
Just something I felt like sharing with others.
Uniquely, Bitcoin arrives first, which makes Bitcoin have to wait for you in the future.
This is the same as saying that no stupid person is really stupid if he has a brain that is used to think.
2012 until now has arrived in almost the middle of 2025. How many years have it been and how much learning can be used as capital. If you still don't know how the action should be done.
A classic comparison is that people without brains buy gold to get rich. People with brains who are used to thinking buy gold so as not to be poor.
As the years pass, people think that buying gold can make a profit, even though fiat has no price.
So what about Bitcoin. Yes, think for yourself.
