Someone said that Bitcoin is for the rich, but that's not completely true. It might feel like Bitcoin is for the rich due to the media focuses on celebrities and billionaires buying and benefiting from Bitcoin. This creates a perception that Bitcoin is a rich person's asset. Even during network congestion, fees can spike making small transactions very expensive. But let's not forget that Bitcoin is neutral, it can empower the rich or help lift the poor, it actually depends on how communities adopt it. So understand that Bitcoin is for everyone, you can buy tiny fractions, not until you afford a whole Bitcoin.
If someone says that Bitcoin is only for the rich, I think that's just a perception of the people who judge it. Often, the media only highlights wealthy individuals like billionaires or celebrities when they buy large amounts of Bitcoin, giving people the impression of exclusivity. Furthermore, during times of network congestion, transaction fees can be very high, making even small transactions seem unreasonable.
But in my opinion, and perhaps most people's, Bitcoin is neutral, meaning anyone can own it—whether it's the wealthy seeking to protect their assets or the lower classes needing a way to store value without fear of inflation. The rules remain the same: you don't have to buy a full 1 BTC; you can start with a very small fraction, even thousands of satoshis. So, it's clear that Bitcoin isn't just for the rich, but for everyone, depending on how the community or individual adopts it.
