The price wasn't Satoshi's initial purpose for Bitcoins creation. But then Bitcoin is growing and adoption is increasing. We can see how it has advanced in the past years creating more reasons for investors to buy more and hold for the long term. So we can't actually say that Bitcoins purpose is fixed only to being an alternative p2p solution to financial issues. But it's wide range of adaptability has given it more purpose. So whether an investor want to get rich for investing in Bitcoin or use it as a payment method or any other purpose, there's nothing to be worried about. So long it still serve it's purpose then it's fine.

For those who have profited a lot from bitcoin and own a lot of bitcoin , it is understandable that their interest in bitcoin is 50-50. But for poor people , people who don't have a lot of money , I don't think they will be interested in technology instead they will focus more on profits  . Even if they don't make a profit from bitcoin, they will no longer be interested in using it . I still think people are attracted to the profits that bitcoin can bring rather than its technology because money is the most important thing in our society today.

By the way, are you sure that you will never sell your bitcoins and hold them forever ? How will you spend for your daily needs when there is no fiat and fiat is still the main currency of this world? I'm really skeptical when someone says they don't care about the value of bitcoin and only care about the technology.

You have used the word HALVING, this is not related to price where as BULL RUN or HODL may be seen in the context of bitcoin price.
If you ask me, i like the bitcoin ecosystem. The way you can make decentralize payments without the use of banks, transfer money from one part of the world to another without the help of any payment gateway and in the cheapest fastest way, all these things make my interest in bitcoin and it is not only the price.

By the way, those who like bitcoin only because of its price, then that's nothing harm in it. When the world's authorities and governments can print money, become rich and enjoy, why can't we celebrate on having a currency that can make us rich too. 

In the early years of Bitcoin's invention, no one believed that Bitcoin would even go so high, even people said it was a scam or a bubble, nothing more. As much as Bitcoin has benefited all its investors so far, the utility and importance of Bitcoin have become very high but the purpose for which Bitcoin was invented by Satoshi is indeed now almost changing or disappearing. There are many traders, including me, who see Bitcoin as a future investment, invest in Bitcoin, and hold it for a long time because everyone knows that Bitcoin has grown so far, and will develop more than this in the future.

And it is not wrong because every person is trying to earn money, so if any cryptocurrency from which he is getting money, instead of taking it as an investment for daily use, then I don't see any downsides, just a bit afraid of the market going down, if the market goes down, there is a good risk of loss, but still many people are taking it as a future investment and I hope that it will give a lot of profit to its users.

Yes, this pretty much sums it up.

Cash is king when it comes to anonymous payments.

Sure, you can still in theory trace individual bills with their serial number, but it is much more difficult than following a transaction in Bitcoin.

The thing is that Bitcoin transactions are pseudonymous, and well, that not always means it is you. It could be someone else in your behalf, or it could be your money being transferred by an exchange, etc.

It's not as simple to track down Bitcoin transactions either...

How is using a credit card or bank transactions much safer when they have more of your information than in bitcoin. A lot of people are found because of their credit card activities. Your name is in display and they will know when and where you used it for. The bank even asks you to fill out papers asking for your address and whatnot.
If you are looking for a payment method that will not leave any traces behind then cash is the ideal one however it is extremely inconvenient as you'd have to physically bring the cash from point a to point b.

Bitcoin is a digital cash that was created primarily for p2p transactions between two parties, so basically it's an alternative currency. But we can't deny that most people now hodl it for profit purposes to make more money, so it has gained the reputation of being an asset that is a store of value. Aside from hodling Bitcoin for profit purpose, the technology is also fascinating, belonging to a global community that is increasing everyday and most importantly the freedom and privacy that comes with holding Bitcoin are as noteworthy as making profits with it.

People owning property and gold for two purposes, the one is they need land to build home and also for investment purpose same in case of gold while in bitcoin’s case everyone is buying just for investment purpose so they will get good profit and meet their financial expenses. Bitcoin will give you daily profit if you do trading while gold and property is for long term investment. So there is no comparison between bitcoin and property or gold.

Everyone’s interest depends on botcoin’s price the reason is that when bitcoin at its lowest price then traders are in loss and they start quitting trading in bitcoin and they will enter again in the market when they see the market turning green again. When price is high more people start using bitcoin and it’s services and when price is low them people start holding them for future!
