Malcolm Gladwell's book Outliers also heavily affected my opinion on it too.
It's where the 10,000 hrs principle came from. You can be an outlier in any field as long as you have the capacity & perform the work/activity for 10,000 hrs.
I remember a pop song being written about it.
Gladwell can be so insightful. We used to talk about chapter 8 from Outliers at the learning center where I taught math and critical thinking. For example, we noticed that addition problems involving 7 tended to be a problem for students whose dominant learning sense was auditory. The auditory learners doing 7+5 would often give an answer of 13. Because they encoded information best via their ears, the fact that se-ven has two syllables created a “bubble” of uncertainty around 7 in their minds. If they spoke Mandarin where all of the single digit numbers are 1 syllable each, that issue would not have existed.
I'm still waiting for the tipping point to play out regarding Bitcoin.
