it's not that only the rich will have access, it's that day to day usage isn't necessary on bitcoin. the dollar or usdc is fine for small transactions.
yes, you needs money to make BTC useful. that's it's purpose.
you don't need btc if you don't have larger amounts of money to store.
You keep saying "not for daily transactions". I never said anything about daily transactions, we have layer 2 for that.
My point is that if someone wants to save in BTC they shouldn't have to pay a weeks wages to have the security of layer 1.
I mean if it's cheaper to run a node than to do a transaction once a month something seems off.
