I can’t help but wonder how much of the “available supply” up to this point has been on paper only.
Discussion
Probably a lot but I was reading some numbers and estimates are there are roughly 500M people who own bitcoin and only probably 600k heavy users. Out of a global population of 8B that’s nothing. Where is all the bitcoin? Are we in a echo chamber or are we still really that early?
Both.
If we really are only 6% global penetration then we are still in the innovation stage
Don't look at the entire globe. Most people probably won't touch Bitcoin until they're left with no choice. Look at that adoption chart you just posted on a per country basis. Realistically, Bitcoin organizers inspired by Bitcoin beach are only just now at a per city basis.
"When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world
I found it was difficult to change the world, so I tried to change my nation.
When I found I couldn’t change the nation, I began to focus on my town. I couldn’t change the town and as an older man, I tried to change my family.
Now, as an old man, I realize the only thing I can change is myself, and suddenly I realize that if long ago I had changed myself, I could have made an impact on my family.
My family and I could have made an impact on our town.
Their impact could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world."
