This is true; we are much more than what it should be called early (less than 1.5% of the world population has bitcoins). And it's strange that even after 1.5 decades have passed since Bitcoin's launch, we still have so many fewer adopters.
Ironically, if we combine Bitcoin plus other coins in terms of adopters, it's approximately 7%, which means shitcoins are way more adopted than bitcoins.
What kind of world is this?
The kind that you live in!
Shitcoins aren't way more adopted than Bitcoin. It's a big fat lie. Bitcoin's market cap is the proof of this lie.
Do you have anything to support your numbers for 1.5% or 7%?

In 2024, approximately 562 million people own some type of cryptocurrency, equal to 6.8% of the global population. As the price of bitcoin has more than doubled this year, global crypto ownership has increased by 33% since 2023 alone.

If true, it means about 1.3% of the world's population owns bitcoin

Wow! They surveyed 7000 people around the world and came to conclude these numbers.
Near 7% is quite bullish. But to say that Bitcoin is only owned by less than 1.5% is quite bearish.
Don't you think that a big percentage of shitcoiners also have Bitcoins, less or more?
If true, it means about 1.3% of the world's population owns bitcoin.
This isn't true and can't be true. There is a big number of people who still hold Bitcoins on exchanges. But they aren't counting them.
