Bitcoin isn't just an investment; it's becoming an exit door!

My curiosity would be; would we see Global Bitcoin adoption from developed economies, or from struggling economies?

It will happen, but not now.
If I'm not mistaken, several developed countries have already done so with Bitcoin. Surely they realize what Bitcoin has to offer for the future. I think that in the future, countries that have been known to be harsh on anything related to Bitcoin will change their approach, even if not directly and openly.
The reason they recognize Bitcoin's potential is that, until now, they haven't been able to do what countries that have legalized Bitcoin have done because of their own unpreparedness—because all of this isn't as simple as flipping a switch.

In the future the struggling economies will adopt it on higher rate while developed economies bring the capital in to cultivate the entire ecosystem.
The struggling economies people will adopt bitcoin out of their need because their currency is falling down and it can become the true essence of banking the unbanked.

But for now global adoption heavily coming from developed nation with good economy because they consider bitcoin as the digital gold, thus a tool to hedge.

In the future, both developed and underdeveloped countries will meet in the center almost equally, having bitcoin as the source of connection. Those struggling economies might be in a bad shape right now, but wait until they fully realized the potentials of bitcoin, and eventually adopt bitcoin, their success may be seen in fast pace. However, for developed countries, they have seen first the potentials of bitcoin and adopt it, they will take the lead towards influencing other countries to be with bitcoin as well.

I don't think Bitcoin was made only for countries with failing economies. In my own opinion, that kind of understanding is wrong. Because Bitcoin doesn't discriminate whether you're rich or poor, whether you have a job or not, as long as you decide to buy it, whether a small or large amount, you can own any amount of Bitcoin.

That's what's great about Bitcoin and what sets it far apart from other assets. With gold, can you buy $10 worth? With diamonds, can you buy that same amount? Same with silver, real estate, and others—right? You can't. Only with Bitcoin can we do that.

Bitcoin has not pointed out any comparison, so its actually created for both. But if we analyze it well, bitcoin is made to see such growth and progress. The failing economy will recover and prosper while the developed economy will take the lead towards a more developed and established economy.

Bitcoin is made equally for everyone. But those who first notice its potentials and take advantage on it first will definitely experience and reap their success while others have chose to delayed it because they doubted first the potentials of what bitcoin can do for them. Its like they need to see the results first before taking such risk with bitcoin.

Both, but for different reasons. The path will be two-pronged: rapid, necessity-driven adoption in fragile economies proving its utility as a tool, and slower, institutional adoption in stable ones validating it as an asset. The former might actually pull the latter along faster.

BTC can be an exit door, but in bad economies people also sprint into traps (shitcoins, “fixed returns,” fake brokers). I learned that the hard way and started reading anything I could on investment scam patterns, this summary nailed a bunch of the red flags I actually saw: https://trustracer.com/online-safety/investment-scams/

So yeah, BTC helps, but education might be the real adoption catalyst.

When Bitcoin is spoken of, it is spoken from a perspective the perspective of a country with a stable currency and economy.

In reality when countries like Argentina and Nigeria are looked at, it can be deduced that Bitcoin has become more of a survival, not just a speculation.

In these economies, it isn't just an investment, it has become an exit door from the failing economies, fiscal policies and failing currencies.

It obviously an exit strategy or exit door as you may call it, why is the price of gold hitting ATH, it's because of hyper-inflation or even stagflation ravaging various country's economy, now investors are using gold as an exit door, and so it's when it comes to Bitcoin for anyone or country that embraced it. Bitcoin will mostly act as a reserve currency or a store of value in my perspective, and it will indeed be a strategic exit door when various economies are bleeding.

You're right but it's a two-tier system for stable economies, its a volatile investment. For failing ones its a critical piece of infrastructure that duality is whats playing out. The price action reflects both the fear in some places and the greed in others. The exit door is real for those who need it most.

And now, many more countries are preparing for it, whether in the research, planning, regulation, or even just starting to move forward. However, more and more countries are opening up to cryptocurrency, especially Bitcoin, as a form of legalization, at least as an investment asset or similar. It's not easy to make crypto adoption widespread and widely accepted, therefore, there are specific stages to further introduce Bitcoin or crypto as a whole to the public in language that is easily understood.

They're looking to it as an investment and they're going to have as much as they can.

As they have now understood that owning a chunk percentage from its total supply, that gives them power to influence the market.

And also giving them the investment that's designed as deflationary currency which is the opposite of what fiat gets, inflation.

I think any struggling economy that picks up Bitcoin at a cheap price will not be a struggling economy when bigger countries start buying it all up.

[Asuspawer09]

I mean Bitcoin can be since its a investment for everyone the structure of having limited supply of 21 million and its supply and demand market making it really suitable for investment not just for individuals but even for the countries or govenrment they already see its importance, see already see a lot of country making a lot of plans in cryptocurrency not just Bitcoin having some kind of cryptocurrency reserve, and probably hoping that it is going to be a good investment for there country.

Bitcoin is already recognize and the blockchain technology is already being integrated on a many countries, here in my countries there are a lot of crypto projects, and even that government they wanted to integrate blockchain technology to track transactions in the government so that they could track the corrupt officials, and the transactions is going to be transparent and people can see where the taxes and funds is going to be spend since there are already a huge scandal of corruption here that is why trust is needed to be gain again, people dont trust the government anymore here in my country because of the recent flood control project where billions is lost.

Bitcoin is convenient first and foremost because of how easy and fast it is to buy and sell, which is not the case with gold or real estate. That said, I would still diversify my investments across several assets, because putting everything into a single option, even one as strong as bitcoin, always carries risks that could complicate access to or ownership of your investment.

I guess most of us are going all in on bitcoin hoping to make huge profits and quickly improve our lives. But yes, putting everything into a single option is very risky, especially with a volatile asset like bitcoin.

We need to be realistic that investing always involves risk, and the higher the potential return, the greater the risk. Diversification is essential, and this applies to all investments, including Bitcoin.

Putting all your eggs in one basket is risky and not a wise idea, no matter how promising or strong the asset may be.

Think about this:  when bitcoin was released 1 $US could buy what it takes $1.51 to purchase today - so 16 years the dollar, which is supposedly a stable currency, lost a lot of purchasing power.  Think about when the Fed with its mandate for "price stability" was created one ounce of gold was $20.  Today 1 ounce of gold is around $4502.  

Everyone, everywhere, can use it as an exit or at least to protect some of their wealth.  

The Fed as all central banks have has completely and utterly failed at their mandate.  Yet politicians keep crowing about "Fed independence" when they've screwed up for 112 years, 2 days and counting.  Hard money like bitcoin (or PMs in the past) is critical to preventing war, promoting growth, and preserving the lives of people by protecting the value they create.

And that of course ignores the value you'd have had if you had purchased and held.  That is just the dollar (as did the Euro etc) losing value day after day, year after year.
