Don't get me wrong, I love bitcoin dearly. In saying this I don't see bitcoin as the most used cryptocurrency going forward, I think it is more likely a big organization that is Pro-decentralization creates and heavily advertises a worldwide cryptocurrency based on bitcoin with that becoming instantly extremely popular and eventually overtaking it in popularity based on its "Fairer" start etc.
there will never be a "fair" commodity that is scarce as wsell
nothing can stop wealthy millionaires or billionaires buying more than the average joe
and so it would be a waste of time to strip the early whales because there would just be new whales
most of the people who had btc back in 2009 are probably already cashed out all or most of it ,with the exception of
the satoshi coins from that era that have never moved and might never move at all .........
I agree to an extent. Fair is not the right word for the situation but I will use it anyway as I can't think of a better word. If a new currency came and the wealthy became whales wouldnt this be "Fairer" than the lucky couple of people who stumbled across bitcoin early?
I'd agree with what you are saying if bitcoin popularity encompassed a financial revolution redefining who is rich in the world. I don't see this as happening atleast in the next 5 years meaning to me it IS fair that the rich will have more BTC as that is how our current system works.
If the rich and the powerful in this world really wanted btc already they would just buy it all up....
Some Russian Billionaires could snap it all up and the needs from the start of bitcoin would cum in their shorts and dump whatever they're holding.... (if that hasn't already happened)
Try not to forget that some people cashed out their entire stack when btc hit $1, $10 etc and still ended up millionaires..
There is probably not many people left from 2009 when btc were 3 for a penny who haven't cashed already
