More and more people are using smartphones thanks to budget friendly mid-rangers, almost anyone can now afford to buy a smartphone.

Mobile payment is becoming more common and it is an opportunity to acquaint people more into using bitcoin . Mobile payment will eventually replace credit cards or at least will make them less mainstream. An example  of this is Apple Pay. Bitcoin smartphone wallet  apps are to use when you have a transaction, you just scan a qr code and the transaction is done though will take some time to be confirmed.
That’s a good point. I hadn’t really thought of that aspect of bitcoin before but it makes sense. I think that since smart phones are indeed becoming more and more a part of our everyday life everywhere in the world this will only help bitcoin.

The point about the QR codes is good too. If people are going to be convinced to use a foreign currency they have to have as many perks and facilities to make that transition as possible.
