First, I wouldn't call bitcoin user base community. It is like saying the dollar user community.
Bitcoin users meetups, non-profit organizations dedicated to supporting bitcoin, bitcoin related community, miner consenus and voting, are not evidence of a "bitcoin userbase community"?
Please, that's because the hacker / DIY community took to it first.
Would you say investment clubs are dollar user communities?
What would you call a group of people that have banded together, all owning stock in a very specific company, trying to increase usage of that company so it can remain in business and their stock values can remain where they are or grow?

"First, I wouldn't call bitcoin user base community. It is like saying the dollar user community."
The dollar is not modeled to meet a specific philosphy or technical implementation nor does it have the same degree of novelty. There most certainly is an enthusiast community for Bitcoin.

Secondly, it is definitely not true that everyone in the bitcoin userbase focuses on the exchange rate. There are lots of people with different and varying goals.
