Now, crypto is a currency people can choose to use. They don't have to. We need to build it as good as possible so that people who choose it, can. And those of us who want and have time and resources, focus on building good showcases, demonstrating that it works. Is rapid adoption that necessary? We need to be able to learn as we scale upwards. Right now, we're in the middle of the development after having learnt that "on-chain isn't the be-all end-all scaling solution". It was a fight getting here, and in the end the big-blockers went and created their own coin, which I think was good for all parties. Has it gone viral already, in a way?
A significant amount of people in some of the most rich countries around the world already know that something called bitcoin exists, it is likely that they do not understand it but at least they know about its existence but they have chosen to not adopt it at the moment and you cannot really make people adopt something if they do not feel a need for it, and that is fine we do not need that bitcoin becomes adopted in a fast way, that will be optimal but it's not necessary.

What we need is that the technology keeps improving to the point people feel they are missing out on bitcoin if they do not adopt it, we do not really need to do anything to try to promote bitcoin because bitcoin is going to promote itself better than whatever we could do.
