Yes, the accessibility of Bitcoin is very important to its success. A few years ago I toyed with the idea of dividend-yielding investments and a few other things, but with the amount of money I was looking to invest (beans) the fees just wouldn't make it worth it. With bitcoin, it was much easier for me to start out investing teeny tiny amounts of money every week. Then, my tiny investment turned into gigantic amounts of money. Of course, later adopters won't see such a massive ROI, but they can still participate in its appreciation until it reaches a more stable adoption level, and after that, they can participate in sound money which is good for everyone. The barrier to entry is a powerful force as we see in socialist .gov-controlled markets i.e. here in the U.S.
The barrier to entry of bitcoin still involves at least a mobile device and internet, but it is much smaller than many markets currently in existence.
