I don't really get what you're trying to say here, is it about the usage of it or any other reason to consider something? Its true that the purpose of bitcoin was to cut off the middleman in a transaction and reduce transactions fee however as more people try to use bitcoin while the supply is limited, the price tend to rise and its just become another normal way to gain some income. I don't think trading is such an easy way to gain money, its easy when the the trend is still showing upside sign but if you look at it now, most people don't even trade anymore instead they just keep holding to what is on their porftolio now.
