A lot of the time and efforts of a lot of bright people is being invested in bitcoin
That doesn't mean it will be successful of course. It could very easily go pop and become worthless at any time.

Nothing I have seen has made me add more to my holding since my initial purchase way back in the day. But nothing has made me regret that purchase yet. In strict $$ terms, then of course I wish I had caught the highs and lows on the journey so far, but I am happy enough to be along for the ride for now.
Indeed, during Crypto Winter while the speculators and weak hands sold up and vanished back into the woodwork there's been a huge amount of development at technical innovation in the space. Stable coins seem to be emerging as the next big thing. Lightning network is growing very well.That doesn't mean it will be successful of course.
