Many are already using it as a crutch in writing, music, art, and other creative fields. Some will take your approach and use it as a tool for growth, but I suspect most won’t develop their skills as deeply as they might have without it. Over time, they will become dependent on it, even for basic tasks. I hope that’s not the case, but the early signs aren’t promising.

It also leads to dependency and skill atrophy (and is generally very derivative by nature). I find uninspiring overall.

Same here. 2008 made me realise the system was irreparably busted. Banks getting bailed out at the public's expense made me so angry. I started boring people with my concerns about a crisis of confidence coming for fiat currencies, not for some years, but very possibly in my lifetime. Even so, life got in the way of me studying Bitcoin properly, and realising that it was the best alternative humanity has. Very lucky we have it.

Their fees are a % of the ETF's assets under management each year, so they make money either way, but BTC price going up makes them more. E.g. $1bn assets, 0.2% p.a. fee = $2m p.a. . Suppose there's then noone buying or selling, but BTC price doubles, then assets would increase to $2bn and ETF issuer would get $4m p.a.

It's that key narrative that's drilled into people from childhood. "If prices don't go up people won't spend and we're all doomed". This belief is so ingrained and strong it will need some serious shocks to break it.

The drowning out of good initiatives by the ETF train is a shame. People think ETFs will be great for price, but in the long term they might actually hinder BTC's move to base money for economies as could just be seen as another alternative asset class. I'm hoping that a decent number of ETF investors will learn about it and realise the benefits of self custody, and its wider utility.
