I really had this question in my mind and wanted to ask was that one of the core principle and aim of Bitcoin is providing equal services and treat people equally without discrimination. But If we look at it from the perspective of "Power" it is creating a new generation of people who hold power I.e the early adaptors of Bitcoin (whales) who hold significant economic influence because they accumulated Bitcoin was undervalued.
So is it really solving the problem of inequality or Creating a new generation of people who hold power and shifting the inequality into a new form?( New Elites?)
Would love to hear your thoughts.
Whales do exist, but let's not forget that they aren't the elite chosen by the system, but rather ordinary people like us who took risks in the early days.
Bitcoin doesn't close its doors to anyone. Anyone, from anywhere, can participate without discrimination. This is the difference from the old system, which was full of privilege.
So, in my opinion, Bitcoin isn't creating a new elite; instead, it's dismantling old monopolies and opening up equal opportunities for everyone.
