From all of the anti-bitcoin arguments against it not being a proper currency that i've heard (and trust me i've read TONS) im yet to see a single one that justifies such claim. Every single claims end up being a critique of how it lacks intrinsic value or how it lacks a proper marketcap to be less volatile, both already refuted.
Ok. Let me ask why do we want it to be a currency? Maybe you are looking for credibility? But if all the arguments or critique have already been refuted in your opinion why is bitcoin still only used for gambling and speculative trading and not as a currency?
What's stopping it if it's such a panacea?In my opinion, the only thing
stopping it slowing it down and mass adoption, is making it easier for the mass to use.
We are in the right direction with hardware wallets and cards.
Once those become easier to use by anyone, then mass adoption will slowly take place.
And yes, it will be seen as and called a currency (by the mass) then.
