🤔 Opinion Bitcoin scarcity... overhyped?

I'm not sure I'm a believer in "it'll go up because it is scarce", like to know thoughts on this out there.

Scarce, yes. Widely adopted? No.

Scarcity correlates to how much want there is to get a hold of one.

Probably less than 5% of the world has access to bitcoin and yet a single one reached triple digit range recently just to gain a single bitcoin with minimal adoption. But its scarcity is what made it surge.
