Why do so many miss the biggest innovations and most revolutionary technologies sitting right in front of their eyes? Sometimes, like Bitcoin, it is such a drastic change, or solves something so fundamental, that many aren't even aware of the problem. It simply doesn't fit in their worldview. But far more often disruptive technologies are dismissed because they find their first footing in a small, obscure, or purely explorative niche... in other words, they get mistaken as a toy, until they change the world.

“All big things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision. But as that decision is repeated, a habit sprouts and grows stronger.

~ James Clear, Atomic Habits
