I think bitcoin makes on sense at all.
A decentralized money means every client holds a central bank -- it's feasible only for a very small scale. The block chain is 10G today. It can grow up to 100...0GB if it wants to get the same position as usd or euro or cny -- obviously it's impossible.
Am I wrong?
I just bought a 64GB SD-Card for $20. Enough for a much bigger blockchain.

Yes, you are wrong.

It's no better than an idiot comapring to current finacial system. It does not support transaction, rollback, tracing, etc.
When more people get involved, it will be a nightmare.
When SHA is hacked, everything is gone.
The rule for wealth is so ridiculous -- btc mining likes lottery. Is this better than rules in today's real world? No, it's just ridiculous.
It's just a new kind of Ponzi scheme. Everyone hope his btc will become more and more expensive so he can get rich without doing anything. I do not think they will succeed.

Am I wrong?

Look into "chain pruning" for reducing the size of the blockchain.

Not having transaction rollbacks is considered a positive attribute.

When SHA is hacked, then we can upgrade to a different algorithm.

It is not a ponzi scheme, you might want to do more research into what a ponzi scheme is. Bitcoin does not pay any interest.

Yes, you are wrong.

Welcome, you have a lot of reading to do my friend. Your observations have been noted and dispelled years ago. Bolck size, SHA, distribution, all have been addressed ad-nauseum. and the ponzi thing... Roll Eyes  Well, you have a lot of reading to do.
