Is Investing in Bitcoin a selfish act?

Have you thought about this topic?, I know that everything has two sides...
When you decide to put your money into Bitcoin:
  • You're not financing any traditional business.
  • You’re not directly creating products or services that might benefit society.
  • The profits are solely yours, without apparent benefit to others.
Moreover, investing in Bitcoin often means:
Postponing some benefits for your family; there’s a strong incentive to hold, which could mean delaying things like upgrading your children’s education or moving to a safer neighbourhood.
Reducing reliance on the banking system and diminishing the government’s control over currency, which means less money circulating in traditional financial networks to fuel credit and inflation.
So, is “orange-pilling” the new form of voluntary activism? Could it be that, in separating money from the state, Bitcoin represents a path toward a better society?
What are your thoughts? Is investing in Bitcoin a selfish act, or is it one of the most revolutionary ways to support freedom and innovation?
Are Bitcoiners just looking out for themselves, or is there a deeper purpose to this investment choice?

You are not "investing" in Bitcoin. When you say that it means fiat mindset, It means you will buy BTC only to sell it later for more fiat. That's bullshit crap.
By acquiring BTC you simply store ENERGY.
Bitcoin is ENERGY stored in the most secured and brilliant way.
What people do every day, every minute? People are always in a continuous run for gathering energy, in many different forms: to eat, to store, to trade, to use it as money, to use it as savings. People depend 100% of energy. People are spending also large amounts of resources just for STORING energy.
And then Bitcoin comes and fix all of these problems: Bitcoin is pure storage for energy, secured by mathematical algorithms, something that will be eternal. If you own Bitcoin YOU OWN ENERGY FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.
You could say that when you acquire BTC, you invest in knowledge. because once you start learning about Bitcoin you start accumulating knowledge about multiple things:
That's why I always say: SPEND YOUR SATS WISELY. It's your energy. And you don't know when is needed.

You are saving money for all three. You are saving for future as opposed to forced spending.

I believe bitcoiners are looking out for themselves first, but... I believe that is the first thing we can do before we can help others. Being here demonstrates a certain amount of self love which demonstrates an ability to love period. We all are all one. First we take care of our families and selves. Then we are free to branch our from there. Like the whole mask on the airplane thing. Being on the Bitcoin standard will help us to offer better services and products to others, not the other way around. It's not about hodling. It's about making a new world. And being first isn't selfish, it's just early.

Investing in Bitcoin is providing capital to a huge decentralized network of people who believe in honest money. Just so happens you can do well by contributing to this good. It's both selfish and cooperative.
