Bitcoin has already proven itself as decentralized money, where it is not subject to and cannot be interfered with by anyone. Even when more parties tried to sink it with various claims that it's a Ponzi scheme, that it would die, that it's the biggest scam, even completely banned it, and many other claims, Bitcoin still grew significantly. In fact, now institutions that once rejected it are starting to take notice of Bitcoin, and countries are starting to prepare regulations to benefit from Bitcoin. This is all a legacy that people will continue to remember enough: that there is one decentralized currency that dares to be an alternative to the traditional financial system.
The fiat currency system that we now rely on to conduct our financial activities is completely problematic. Where people have no freedom, where people have no control. The economy of a country is run by the government or a few powerful people in the country. No matter how much someone stands on this system and makes false information against Bitcoin or makes statements to weaken Bitcoin, Bitcoin will naturally become popular with time . There was no marketing for Bitcoin, no one spread any positivity related to Bitcoin. The way Bitcoin was created with the rules and regulations that were in the beginning are still now . And this is why people are so interested in Bitcoin.
To me the most interesting legacy of Bitcoin is that Bitcoin did not wait for anyone to convince it. Some said it was a scam, bubble, wanted to ban , ignored it but Bitcoin's network rules are fixed. Since there is no central authority, there has been no change based on anyone's reaction.
Over time those people, that popular media have also spoken positively about Bitcoin. And what I think is popularity is increasing among people or people's trust is increasing so institutions are adopting Bitcoin . People are gradually realizing their freedom, the popularity of Bitcoin is increasing worldwide. So institutions are investing in Bitcoin and holding it thinking about the future.
