Perhaps.... in Central Europe, or rather in the affluent Western world, the pain is often not great enough to move individuals to action. Over the last 25 or 30 years, the majority of the population has been driven out of their minds. "Daddy state will take care of everything". These people may pay a high price for their ignorance. I say perhaps.... because this cart will be dragged through the mud for a very long time before it really breaks.

Very true!
The ones already having debt/mortgages will move very late, or maybe never.
The mindset shift certainly will take quite some time.
But I still think it will accelerate over time. And faster than we think.
The people who do understand Bitcoin and were able to get rid of the thoughts/mindsets like „you have to have to own real estate“ demonstrate this shift already.
Their results will speak for themselves. Others will see it and follow suit.
That’s the basic thesis.
The underlying question is: How do we really want to live our lives?
Answering this question honestly to ourselves and ourselves alone is a really difficult thing to do. And it is even more difficult to act on it consistently.
That’s an option Bitcoiners can choose more easily.
Buy Bitcoin, hold long enough.
Then decide if you want to keep renting or buy a house at some point.
