I'm not reading it that way either. Where exactly does the OP say Bitcoin should be
bridging the gap between rich and poor? It might be just me but I cant see that.
The point of the OP is that the rich will always have an advantage over the
poor in Bitcoin but its the case with everything.
I think it is implied contextually because the previous topic and this one are about Bitcoin.
tell me how will the poor catch up, how will the poor get to such height, how can they afford to overcome fear when there is little experience. It is very challenging for the poor investors to succeed in the Bitcoin market, potentially whitening the wealth gap.
Here you can see that the user is asking these questions and then he is specifically mentioning Bitcoin. He wants Bitcoin to somehow save the poor, or well alternatively the poor to use Bitcoin to save themselves.
