How can the Bitcoin community use crypto to further social equality, not just promote the culture of greed. Its starting to seem like believing in bitcoin is like believing in money, ultimately meaningless.

Existence of bitcoin does not obligate anyone to turn from self-interested individuals to selfless world changing martyrs. Similarly, people who benefited from taking a risk and betting on bitcoin do not owe their time and life to the world. Not everyone had gobs of cash to buy bitcoin, some people put in what they earned with hard work and it paid off.

I'm going to take care of me and my own first. If/when its enough to never work for money again, I may work on some projects that are beneficial to society and only if they are also self-fulfilling. There is no altruism in the world. Even doing a good deed for someone who can never repay you makes you feel better. You buy the good feeling like you buy a pair of shoes.
