well no. Store of value. ala gold is sufficient.

i mean who buys stuff with actual gold, 5T market cap....why?

People just need a reason to hammer down on Bitcoin. If people end up paying with Bitcoin, they'll find something else to moan about. It's basically the same as with the stability and volatility aspects. If the market bounces up and down too frequently, people want stability. If the market is relatively stable for a week or so, people complain about the market being boring.... Let people talk as much as they want -- history has proven that Bitcoin demolishes people's skeptic thoughts by breaking through newer highs, and that will continue. On top of that, people will gain far more incentive to use Bitcoin for transactions and whatnot once LN is fully deployed. People have been spoiled with how the market has gone up last year, and gained a cocky attitude because of that. And btw, gold has an $8 trillion market cap. Grin
