 The reality is 71 sats is if you gave everyone in the world an equal amount of bitcoin. The truth is bitcoin will be for the rich. Some places with extreme poverty will adopt early and see benefits. But it actually is even more exclusive than the central bank. CBDCS are literally the only way that computer illiterate people can benefit from a totally digital currency. As evil as totalitarian government and surveillance states are. People who don’t use computers really are just that far behind the curve. Anyone can get an app with a debit card. But someone has to use their mind to take advantage of hiding their money in elliptic curve cryptography. It’s not for everyone.
