I don't think that the late adapters technically "lose" money by not buying BTC now, or at 1million, but they definitely miss out on the early profits. Once the world is ready to move to BTC standard and the normies join in through banks and institutions that make it easy for them, their $10000 is still $10000 . But early adapters $10000 is anywhere from $100k to $100mil, depending how early you joined. Point is that you still have time for big profits, but the doubters should really wake the F*** up really, like it can't get more obvious than it is now for anyone who either works in finance or in IT industry. I understand if Timmy the carpenter didn't invest, but there is no excuse for Peter the Programmer or Caleb the ... Financier

It makes little sense given how much BTC goes up that more people in poorer countries haven't found ways to adopt BTC, many of them would be a helluva lot better off than they are with the dollars they held. It must be technology asymmetries and or information or just the difficulty threshold with adopting BTC. Strike and other platforms need to get more involved and China needs to get its Binance and or other platforms into the third world.

You are exaggerating people's distrust of dollars. Only a small percentage of people actually really feel threatened by inflation. Sure they whine about it but they don't actually do anything like buying gold, silver or Bitcoin. Bitcoins periodic 80% dip against the dollar makes it unsuitable for saving. If someone can buy Bitcoin, they can buy stable coins (online dollars). If Bitcoin can retain its value against the dollar this cycle and continue to increase in price, then yes, Bitcoin will almost immediately become world reserve currency.
