1 Bitcoin isn't an impossible goal to achieve on the currently price range. There are many people making almost 1 BTC income yearly with an average wage if we compare their fiat wages to the Bitcoin price, including at third world countries, while there are others earning much more than that on the same time period.
The point is that people who have volumous wages don't put too much importance on investments, because they fully rely on the stability of the jobs, while the jobless and minimum wage workers put all their hopes in BTC investment, trying to accumulate at least 1 BTC, dreaming about a life change. Besides Bitcoin, they also go for lottery draws with the same purpose in mind.
Some comfortably recline in their seats, earning 1 BTC without sweating, while others search the cryptocurrency world with optimism. You're right about wealthy earners ignoring Bitcoin's potential. These folks sense no need to diversify, like humans in their affluent bubbles, detached from evolutionary stresses that formerly endangered their life.
For low-wage workers, Bitcoin represents a lifeline, not just a money or investment. It promises equality online, like the internet did. Ironically, lottery ticket buyers, looking for hope, also see possibilities in Bitcoin's decentralization. In a society of huge economic inequality, Bitcoin may be the disruptor we need. However, history shows that every revolution has its drawbacks.
