To some degree, Bitcoin is a veblen good. I see it with my friends and family who finally bought btc albeit a fraction, when they could have bought many whole btc's many years ago
When btc crashed to $30K last year, my crypto-curious friends (with the s) and a family member would not buy even as I gave a long explanation that I was buying more to hodl for years like any investment
On the way up (last year), when btc was at ~$50K, at least 3 of them bought btc. Family member bought more than 1 btc to hodl for 5 years. These same people would not add during the dip to low to mid $30K, though
One of the things about BTC is how agile and flexibility is has been in transitioning narratives, pretty resilient.
