I mean the reality is that anyone who denies this aspect is either already wealthy, or lying.

Again the other points about Bitcoin are valid and strong, but it was built around human incentives. NgU is not an accident, its programmed in. If it fails to go up over time, it will likely fail because the adoption incentive for the masses is gone.

love the genuine response .... its normal that we have self-interest in almost everything 

"repaid for conviction" is very interesting too

Why are you in Bitcoin? 

Nobody is going to say it, so I will: Number Go Up.

Yes all the other things too, but if the number does not go up in the next 10-15 years I will be very disappointed about it. Bitcoin lets me dream of my future like people do when they talk about winning the lottery. 

I want the revolution, but I'd like to be repaid for my conviction during times like these...So for me, it either goes to zero and I lose it all or NgU and realize these dreams.
