Very very few of the people who use Bitcoin will actually properly understand all the technical details of it, but that doesn't mean it can't be a valuable asset. I still think that general public don't even grasp the basic concept of Bitcoin either though.
There is a lot of mystery still surrounding Bitcoin for the average Joe. That is why a lot of people still associate Bitcoin with 'ponzi scheme' and other bad things, simply because they don't understand it. It's hard for people to get their head around the idea that a virtual commodity can actually be worth real world 'money'. But times are changing fast, its the same principle that the original implementation of the Internet had, everybody thought that this will never catch on and never be big, but now look at us.
Give it 10 years, the Bitcoin ecosystem will be a VERY different thing and people will have started to get their head around how Bitcoin works even at the most basic level, I think this is the time where will be see a very big re-rate in terms of the price and market value as a whole.
