consider this similar scenario pls:

man with small penis: it's a failure of 99.9% of women that they prefer other guys

 Actually, it's not a failure of Bitcoin or its users that adoption is still low. It's a failure of the 99.9% who trust in a centralized, manipulable monetary system that Bitcoin aims to replace.

In both cases, it is about personal freedom and self-determination, not acceptance by the masses.

 Let me correct myself, Bitcoin is not trying to replace anything. It simply exists.

 Hmmm…I wonder why Larry fink (blackrock) and Jamie Dimon (JP Morgan) who are 2 of the greatest market manipulators of all time are so interested in a failed asset all of a sudden?🤔🤷🏽‍♂️

I think the ETF interest by some of the most reputable finance players is a pretty strong endorsement of store of value🤔…as for accepted worldwide currency we’ll see?
