TL;DR -

Why should you care about Bitcoin?

Selfishly you should care because:

It can grow your wealth over time while fiat money devalues
It can protect your privacy and freedoms while fiat systems devolve into surveillance dystopias
It is inevitable anyway so learning about it now can put you ahead of the curve

Morally you should care because:

Bitcoin is clean magic backed by free and peaceful open source code while fiat money is backed by oil, war, and inflation
Bitcoin mining can help save the environment by monetizing a renewable energy overbuild at scale
Bitcoin gives everyone on the planet free access to the fundamental human rights of wealth protection and frictionless value exchange
