Not quite.
Bitcoin is widely adopted in oppressed countries, and has helped their people maintain purchasing power.
Was *is* rich people in the west pretending that bitcoin is for wealthy people. Nope. Bitcoin is for people who need to preserve what little they can. Bitcoin has made a few people rich that saw its importance early. Good for them.
These people weren't the banking elite.
It has helped people in oppressed countries.
