Is Bitcoin just for the rich?

[CageMabok]

No, Bitcoin isn’t just for the rich. Anyone can buy a small amount, even with just $1. It’s used by everyday people around the world—especially in places with weak banking systems or high inflation. While the rich may invest big, Bitcoin was created to give everyone more financial freedom.

Bitcoin wasn't created for a select few or for the wealthy alone. Digital assets like Bitcoin are meant for everyone, regardless of social status or wealth. Therefore, anyone can buy Bitcoin without exception, as long as they believe it's the best asset in the world. However, on local exchanges, you must have a minimum of $10 to purchase Bitcoin, as that is the minimum amount that can be used for a single transaction. However, I haven't checked whether $1 is available on global exchanges, as I rarely buy Bitcoin in such small amounts.

Actually, I will say something different in this case, Bitcoin is not for anyone, rich or poor, but for those people who want their financial freedom and who know how to use it properly. And at this stage, it doesn't matter whether they are rich or poor, Bitcoin will be for everyone.

Because Bitcoin is definitely not for those people who think that investing in Bitcoin will make them rich overnight or that they have to buy a whole Bitcoin to invest in Bitcoin. Those who are basically intelligent will continue to invest in Bitcoin regularly, even if it is a small amount, with a long-term strategy, and Bitcoin is mainly for such people.

It's important for us to first understand what Bitcoin is and how we can get benefit from it before proceeding with it. The price of Bitcoin today is 117k, it was not at that level from day one of it's inception. The rich people can further increase their wealth and poor people can better their financial conditions by rightly investing into Bitcoin. We recently saw a case where whale(s) are selling there Bitcoins at price of 110k while their purchase price was less then a dollar. Bitcoin can benefit you regardless of whether you are rich or poor provided you know how to invest in it.

It's a misconception that make people to say that bitcoin is not meant for everyone, bitcoin is being created as intercontinental currency that will help and also reduce the stress of sending money across another country, but people could not understand the basics things that is related to bitcoin and some major important of bitcoin before they started to condenm of bitcoin, I know very well that it's recently that people started to invest in Bitcoin and started having the passion to invest, because they have realised that bitcoin is an asset, so for me bitcoin is a very big asset and I believe that bitcoin investment is something we are supposed know

Bitcoin was never created for the rich, from the first day it was launched till date, Bitcoin has always been for anyone who understands what it represents. The idea that Bitcoin is just for the wealthy comes from a surface-level look at the current price of one whole coin. But what many people don’t realize is that Bitcoin is divisible so you don’t have to buy a whole BTC before you can own it. You can start your Bitcoin journey with as little as $100 and continue to grow your portfolio from their. From the knowledge I've been able to gather about Bitcoin, I strongly maintain that it wasn’t built for the elites rather it was created as an alternative to systems controlled by them. One of the financial feats Bitcoin achieved if you ask me is that it recovered the financial power that was controlled by the governments and elites and distributed it back to individuals across the globe.

Some of the richest beneficiaries of the Satoshi Nakamoto's innovation today came in when Bitcoin was still seen as "play money." It wasn't riches that gave them access rather it was early belief and understanding. So instead of asking “is Bitcoin for the rich?” the better question  I think should be "do I understand what Bitcoin really stands for?”. Because once you do, you’ll see that Bitcoin is for the patient, the curious, the intentional, the informed and not just the rich.

I would like to fully agree with your opinion. Because it's more important to know how to actually use Bitcoin than who Bitcoin is for.

Because as you said, big whales invested in Bitcoin at $1 and sold it at 110k, similarly you will see many people who bought Bitcoin at 110k and sold it at a loss at a much lower price. The difference here is mainly the actual use of Bitcoin, currently many people will invest due to FOMO and later they will sell it due to FUD and face losses. So I will again say bitcoin is for those who know it's use cases.

It's a misconception that make people to say that bitcoin is not meant for everyone, bitcoin is being created as intercontinental currency that will help and also reduce the stress of sending money across another country, but people could not understand the basics things that is related to bitcoin and some major important of bitcoin before they started to condenm of bitcoin, I know very well that it's recently that people started to invest in Bitcoin and started having the passion to invest, because they have realised that bitcoin is an asset, so for me bitcoin is a very big asset and I believe that bitcoin investment is something we are supposed know

Sometimes the initial benchmark for some people, especially those who do not know how bitcoin works, including how to collect bitcoin, they see the current price benchmark which always makes a reference where when the price is high, it is certain that it is only for those who have a lot or in the sense that now the rich.

But in the end when we know how bitcoin works and more or less know about the ins and outs that exist in bitcoin of course we will not consider this as one of the assets that is only intended for those who are rich but for all those who want to have it.

So by looking at this, it is not wrong that some people always say bitcoin is too expensive or so on because their mindset is still the same where the benchmark is only at the price. Although it is also not to blame because it purely comes from thoughts that do not know about bitcoin.

Certainly no. It creates an opportunity both for the poor and the rich, so you can’t tell that the rich have all the chances to get richer while the poor stay being poor all throughout its existence. With bitcoin, there’s always an opportunity to get rich in the future, but take note, there is no get rich quick but it’s always a long, working process.

However, we can’t deny the fact that these rich people gain more advantage when it comes to buying and accumulating good amount of bitcoin. But it’s not the amount of bitcoin that will greatly matter, but it’s on how long you’ll be able to hold them while waiting for the perfect price to sell.

Someone said that Bitcoin is for the rich, but that's not completely true. It might feel like Bitcoin is for the rich due to the media focuses on celebrities and billionaires buying and benefiting from Bitcoin. This creates a perception that Bitcoin is a rich person's asset. Even during network congestion, fees can spike making small transactions very expensive. But let's not forget that Bitcoin is neutral, it can empower the rich or help lift the poor, it actually depends on how communities adopt it. So understand that Bitcoin is for everyone, you can buy tiny fractions, not until you afford a whole Bitcoin.

Referring Bitcoin as an asset only for the rich is kind of funny, because this is a statement only people who has little or know knowledge about Bitcoin could make, forgetting the fact that though a one full Bitcoin could be expensive (i.e $117,000 per BTC), it still doesn't mean it's tiny fractions can't be bought. Because Bitcoin can actually be divided into tiny fractions known as "Satoshi". And Sats equals to 0.00000001 BTC, and for those who can not afford to buy a full 1 BTC can possibly buy at few Satoshi, like 10,000 Sats, which is equivalent to 0.0001 BTC or $11.
