Can you not buy drugs, hacking tools,  and fake ids with USD?

When I first started buying bitcoin you could literally only use Bitcoin to pay for something another individual person who liked bitcoin would be willing to trade for it. Today you can literally buy anything that Overstock.com sells with bitcoin, anything that Tigerdirect.com sells for bitcoin, anything that new egg.com sells for bitcoin, anything that Microsoft sells for bitcoin, anything that dell sells for bitcoin, Paypal is integrating bitcoin payments and of course there are services like Bitpay that allow ANYTHING i want ANYWHERE to be purchased with bitcoin.

An analogy to what you are doing is someone who 6 years after the internet was invented is arguing that snail mail is more superior to email. For one you don't need to own a computer, most people can't afford computers anyway, let alone how to use them, then you have to get an internet connection with a screaming modem that only runs at dial up speed, so you have to pay for that service every month, then you have to get the email program and figure out how to load it onto your expensive computer you don't know how to use and figure out how to connect to the internet and then once you've done all of that NO BODY ELSE HAS A COMPUTER OR THE INTERNET OR KNOWS HOW TO USE IT!! So who are you going to send your fancy "email" to? Nobody??? YOURSELF!?

Wake up from your dream. The internet was existed for 6 years and nobody uses it. You guys keep up with your propaganda about "emails" I'll continue to put my letters in a real life mailbox! It s so funny. : )


^^^ that's basically what i hear when you talk.

For this argument to be compelling you would have to demonstrate a reasonable justification to assume that the number of sellers who accept bitcoin will not continue to increase and the ability to use bitcoin as a consumer will not continue to become easier. Unless you can provide a good reason why the trend will stop, then you are just blowing smoke.
