I don't think we can judge Bitcoin users just from transaction which are made daily because most of them are probably made by BOTS and from Gambling or Lending Platforms & Exchanges of course . so yeah ... It's simply maybe because of the hacks of exchange on the last months (most of them are chinese) .
However for me ... I'am using it today more then last year or ever , I knew Bitcoin last year and started reading about it and wasen't so interessted but got used it to it by time and finally started using it and now I can't stop
