It sure is a dangerous dance. In Protestant circles, where I'm mostly around, people tend to reduce any thoughts about money to the quotation that money is the root of all evil.
Going down the bitcoin rabbit whole has opened my eyes to how much more there is to say and think about this issue.
At the same time, I belong to a Christian community where 'poverty' is one of the virtues being held up high, along with chastity and obedience. So sometimes I even feel insecure about saving in bitcoin cause could cause some conflict of interest.
Being without any wealth frees your mind and your thoughts from being preoccupied with other stuff besides trying to learn to love God and and my neighbor.
