It is not unknown that Milennials are the generation that is apdoting bitcoin, either as a way of investment or to hodl and wait for a future where bitcoin becomes the accepted currency. But what about the generation X.

I like to call them the sleeper generation, because being the last one that fall into the indoctrination of previous generations, hasn't done anything remarkable (good or bad) that makes any difference; this generation I am part of, doen't even has a real name.

I don't believe they have notice that they can lead the gratest difference in todays broken economy, since they are the ones still holding the leading positions in business and politics, making the decitions. With their day-to-day actions they keep the old institutions in power, because they are so use to them and already struggle to  deal with their ways; we could say, they (we) don't know better. And when something like bitcoin come along, and this same institutions tells them its wrong, they temp to believe them.

Maybe if at some point, generation X learn a bit of the origin of the Millenials disconfort, instead of just critizise it as they are told to do so; maybe they will open themselves to the alternative and accept bitcoin, and place their trust in the blockchain and not in some rich bankers; and then maybe, the change will happen at once.

It is maybe nothing but human nature, I can't be sure at the moment, I don't have any psychological or anthropological background to make a statement, but I would like to share a small thought I had this morning.

I was checking in the news than the Brexit party (MEPs) turn backs on Ode to Joy at European parliament. Besides reckoning the immature attitude of these politicians, I did see the pattern politicians are following. It caught my attention that in history, hate has being use by poor leaders to unite people under their flag. To cite some examples:

• Hitler used a racist thought to unite the Germanic tribes under an arian flag, and twisted that thought to promote and excuse a war we all know.
• Trump used a xenophobic idea to unite the economical dissatisfied USA citizens, and used that to pass so many crazy laws and probably win next elections.
• Now, in the UK, Nigel Farage is using a bad settled Brexit situation to induce fear that will probably end up in hate towards de European Union.

So my point is, that these leaders convince people to not achieve a common global goal, probably based on selfishness in order to satisfy their own agenda, and the only way to convince the people that such common goal is not the best option, is to create and promote hate.
