My theory as someone long Bitcoin? Nostalgia. Why were cars some of the best investments one could have made in the 1960s? Because people today associate these cars with intense memories of their youth.

Making and losing your first fortune trading Bitcoins should have a similar effect on the retirees of 2050.

Nostalgia works on things you can see, smell, touch; they have form.

Bitcoin seems too abstract to be collectable in that sense
