You know, people didn't think they needed computers back in the past... And I think that this situation with Bitcoin really can change only if we continue spreading a word about Bitcoin, pointing out to its advantages (for example, c'mon, if you want to send money to another part of the world at a low cost, it is really a good stuff), and showing that Bitcoins is something people should pay attention to, cause it can then be late for them, there will be a breaking point when Bitcoin becomes really widespread.
Everything unknown frightens people.
My point is not to give up, because, by driving btc adoption we can steadily raise the price of Bitcoin, at least, provided there are no considerable stresses in the industry.
