very few people seem truly committed to Bitcoin as a currency
You're a silly little man who intentionally doesn't consider all the facts.
You've cherry picked negative aspects and ignored the rest.
That makes everything you just said pointless.  How people do this will always confound me.
You'd think a person speaking would want their words to hold some water.
Yet they speak while knowingly ignoring facts which disprove their words.  Human beings are sad...
The opportunists who are trying to make money off Bitcoin right now are the very organizations which will thrust Bitcoin into the mainstream.
Greed is necessary to get Bitcoin out of the nerd circles and onto the main stage.
Greed doesn't always mean failure.  This is another reason why your viewpoint on reality is lacking.
Once those seeking to make money off mining hardware, merchant services, ATM's, etc have done their work, it will be at that point which those who will appreciate its positive aspects, can be used by billions of humans on earth.
There are over 6 billion people who don't have bank accounts.  And now they will.  For free.
Anyone who poo poo's this is foolish.




Many of those same people don't have access to

The Internet
Computers
Electricity
Food
Water
Shelter

Not really seeing what advantages accrue to people in those circumstances by using Bitcoin.

Well you may soon be in for a big surprise. Bitcoin will change everything in exactly those markets.

(and if $250+ is "really in trouble" ... bring on more trouble please)
