It might seem obvious but people nowadays miss the fact you can use bitcoin to buy stuff. That ""hodl!"" mentality was not that strong back in 2013 when I first came across that ""magic internet money"".I don't know how it feels buying two pizzas for $35m but I have bought quite a lot of games through humble bundle and seeing them to not look great deals after all is not that great. But if we really need to see that mass adoption coming anytime soon we need to push for merchant adoption. We need people getting paid in bitcoin and people willing to pay in bitcoin. Stop yelling a misspelled word made by an a drunk autistic ""trader"" from 2013.

The reason why the word HODL became very famous is that the fact that bitcoins value have increased tremendously. The super volatility of bitcoin destroyed the main feature of bitcoin as a currency and was treated like a stock or commodity. People are flocking in bitcoins but without plans to use it to purchase things but rather to profit.
