Widespread use of cryptocurrency is inevitable. Whether or not it's mainly Bitcoin is irrelevant.
BUT, what comes after all of this? We are so focused on crypto's use being an inevitability and speculating on future value to make money when such profit potential will not last.
Once cryptocurrency is universally
used, it won't make sense to keep it as an investment as the price will stabilize.
After the widespread use of crypto is realized, the ultimate representation of how everything has become digitized (even value), the rest of our lives will also have mostly become digitized.
Being hooked to computer screens and smartphones will turn into being hooked on perfect simulations in virtual reality where everything is cheap and our minds can theoretically live on indefinitely for next to nothing. Value won't even have to be exchanged for the most part as consumerism will be obsolete.

What makes Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies more fun is the volatility, thus a loss today could give a good gain tomorrow is only patience is involved. Thus I don't ever thing the price of Bitcoin can be stabilise as that itself will ruined the beauty I see in Bitcoin.
