In our current capitalist economy, most people spend majority of their life just working and saving for their retirements.

That's not something I disagree with. I do that. But via traditional means (I generate something of value and get wealth in return), not solely by using my wealth to generate more wealth.
I hate bitcoin because you can only participate (and become more wealthy) if you're already fortunate/privileged enough to be wealthy. It's just another thing that helps increase the divide between rich and poor.

Hasn't this always been the case, for all of humanity's existence?

Everything bad is because of [buzzword that represents everything bad about the current social order].
Do lefties have a "not real capitalism" meme like the "not real communism" meme for righties?
