bitcoin in it's current form is not really an advantage in a normal day to day use... Credit Cards and PayPal have their issues yes but it's not like they are that bad that everybody in this world would have to switch to switch to something which requires 30min conformations before completing the TX...

Try to send money from Brasil to Denmark for example... It will take days. Xapo, Bitstamp (with debit card)... solves that in a matter of hours.

ofc if you wire it, it will take for ever...

But with PayPal or a Credit Card it would be there instantly. Ofc the fees are higher and it can be frozen or whatever but tbh. I rarely send money outside of my country and if I do it's not a big issue if a SEPA takes 2 days and I haven't heard of anybody I know that his transaction was frozen...

And if you leave out the substituted Blockreward out, as BTC trasnaction currently would cost like ~30$ ...
