I'm not nearly as knowledgeable as I want to be but even with the little bits that I'm dabbling in, I'm beginning to notice the "going and coming" fees of transferring MY coin from one wallet to another. I'm not even talking about the risk you take in exchanges or finding legit buyers.
There's a saying, "A Snowball's chance in hell..." I'm in that group. I like the underdog who works for the greater good even if there is some sacrifices that need to be made.
This made me laugh because it is very fitting with the analogy of Animal Farm. Snowball's chances of succeeding were very slim when it came to fighting off Napoleon. As @guiltyparties wrote..."people better start voting with their wallets" if they want this experiment to succeed with Satoshi's original plan in mind, not to mention the moral reasons that many began mining for in the first place.
Have I mentioned how much I love smart people? XOXOX
