Not really, the Bitcoin community was the one that made it a financial instrument once Bitcoin went from being called 'a payment system' to 'a store of value'. The community has repeatedly resisted making transfers faster, cheaper or easier due to various reasons(some valid), leading to various forks and altcoins. The general Bitcoin community also celebrates every time a Wall Street firm starts trading in bitcoin, saying that's a way of Bitcoin going mainstream and being accepted as a store of value.
