Will we ever use Bitcoin for day by day use? Buy a bread, a phone, a car, an appartment? Or Bitcoin will more likely be a way of just storing value and we have to rely on altcoins to use them daily?
Im afraid not. We cant use Bitcoin to buy our simple needs because mainstream adoption is just getting started. Bitcoin is more like a commodity than a currency. Also there are things that should be fix before it becomes a real currency. The scalability and the issue of legality. These two are slowing down the adoption to make Bitcoin at the mainstream. Bitcoin transaction is now costing you about $25 for every transaction. That hurts. The scalability of Bitcoin is the main problem of Bitcoin that should be fixed soon. It's not funny anymore. Who would want to pay more on the fee than the fund you are going to send? I hope LN implement soon.
