Are you aware of the point of a decentralized blockchain? Of a permissionless system? Bitcoin is both. Anyone (with access to texting) can buy + use bitcoin. That is about as permissionless as you can get.

"use it wisely" ??? What does this even mean? I don't think anyone actually thinks of large bitcoin holders as "the very, very few who can use it wisely."

PS. Bitcoin is not deflationary, it inflates at <2% per year and will continue to inflate until it reaches the 21 million cap. It will never deflate. Ethereum is roughly deflationary. [0]
