Bitcoin of course has far greater fundamentals, but it is still, after all, an experiment unfolding with no real end result in view. But yes, every day that passes without the dream crashing down around us in one day closer to that point of no return.
In that way we can think of everything being an experiment or at least a work in progress. This is even more so with respect to money as there have been many flavors of it which were tried throughout history. Now we have fiat which is not backed up by anything but a kind word and a gun as Al Capone once put it. But everything being an experiment doesn't really make any difference as we are living today no matter when this experiment is going to end, if ever, and how exactly. So, in a sense, anything we do can be considered experimenting, not just bitcoin alone.
