WHY SO MANY PEOPLE ARE MISSING OUT ON BITCOIN WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT
Share
It's not that they don't know. It's worse: they think they know. They've heard about Bitcoin on TV. They've seen the headlines, the dizzying rises, the dramatic falls. They've read two or three tweets, maybe an article in a business newspaper. And they've drawn a conclusion: it's not for them. It's too risky. Too unclear. Too speculative. Too volatile. Too technical. Too much of everything. So they miss out.
They don't dig. They don't read the white paper. They don't ask themselves why so many intelligent, free, and uncompromising people devote their entire lives to a project like this. They don't wonder why governments want to ban it, why billionaires want to tame it, why cypherpunks dreamed it up before it even existed.
They only see the price. Not the principle.
They only see the curve. Not the code.
They only see one more asset, not an escape route.
And while they look the other way, while they laugh or scorn or ignore, Bitcoin continues. It doesn't ask their opinion. It doesn't try to convince them. It doesn't market itself. It doesn't exist to please. It exists to resist. It continues to produce a block every ten minutes. Tirelessly. Relentlessly. It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not. It moves forward.
They're missing out because the fiat world has made them passive. Because they've learned to wait to be told what to think. Because they still believe that security comes from the state, that money is a distributed right, that currency is an eternal promise. But the promise has been broken for a long time. They just haven't noticed yet.
They miss out because Bitcoin is demanding. It doesn't pander to ignorance. It doesn't hold your hand. It forces you to read, to understand, to change. It highlights incompetence, helplessness, and dependency. It doesn't ask if you're ready. It tells you: This is how I work. Take it or leave it.
And yet, those who miss out today may be the first to run tomorrow. When the euro collapses a little further. When retirement doesn't come. When the bank refuses a transfer. When savings melt away. When promises burst. They will look at Bitcoin with different eyes. But it will be more expensive. Rarer. More difficult to access. It's not too late. It's never too late. But you have to want to see. You have to unlearn. You have to question what you thought you took for granted. That's why so many people miss out on Bitcoin: they think it's just an investment.
While it is a revolution.
