Internet was expensive when it came out. Remember when it used to be pay by the hour and tied up your landline? I had internet through the University and had to kick people out of my apartment because they would sit at my computer forever.
Everyone I knew in high school wanted a cellphone but couldn't afford it. Same with desktop computers. Same with space travel. Everyone wanted that that stuff but it was expensive.
Bitcoin isn't hard or expensive to get. But still nobody wants it.

Tens of billions of dollars are tied up in it, and it's impossible to trivially create new Bitcoin. So... pretty much exactly the opposite of what you're arguing.
