For me it was quite the opposite. In 2014 I was so angry with the banking system just taking away money from Cypriot pensioners, I wanted to get out of it as soon as possible, and get into a system where I can verify that I'm the owner of the asset. I went to Bitcoin and gold, but later got rid of my gold reserve, as it is manipulated even more heavily than Bitcoin price.
