Not for the "rich" but for the "risk" takers..

Whatever financial situation we’re in, as long as we can afford to take the risk, Bitcoin is for us.

Most people will say, “Only invest what you can afford to lose,” and yes, that’s the standard. But sometimes, if you truly believe in Bitcoin, you might go beyond the standard, just like CZ, who famously sold his house to buy Bitcoin back then.
You’re absolutely right. Bitcoin isn’t just for the rich or even for the poor, but certainly for risk takers, since whoever that plans to enter bitcoin investment should be aware of its associated risk. But we cannot deny the fact that those rich have definitely more potentials to invest, compared to the poor who still doubt whether to risk their hard-earned money or just resort into looking for a cheaper investment.

However, in the long run, whether you are rich or poor does not matter at all, because what matters most is how you can handle the risk that bitcoin has.

If you learn about BTC, you understand that the risks on it are the smallest out there, and then you decide for yourself what to do next.
