For most of us, the mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto and the cypherpunk roots of Bitcoin are deeply fascinating. But I wonder—will the next generation even care about these stories?

Imagine someone born in 2030. For them, Bitcoin might just be another “internet money,” without any myth or romance attached to it.

👉 Does losing the origin story weaken Bitcoin’s cultural value, or does it not matter as long as the protocol works?

I think part of Bitcoin’s magic is its mysterious birth, but over time, maybe the narrative will shift toward practicality only. Curious what others here think.
Something that has a significant positive impact on people will never be lost or forgotten, people will continue to talk about it, and I believe Bitcoin is like that. So, I don't think there is any reason for Bitcoin to be forgotten, especially historically. Moreover, we know that Bitcoin has a bright future for years to come, this is due to the various positive impacts it has already had, and we can already feel it. I remember Bitcoin initially receiving negative press, but over time, it has become a part of many people lives, including companies, institutions, and countries, with adoption already spreading worldwide. Therefore, I am fully confident that Bitcoin will become increasingly global and unforgettable.

At this moment, Bitcoin may not be considered completely and globally yet, but with widespread adoption, especially in superpowers country, it will boost its image even further, and one thing I believe will happen in the future is that Bitcoin will become legal tender in some countries, or even all countries.
