How can we get people to use bitcoin as a real currency and not just a quick way to get cash as a lot of people seem to do? When I say currency, I mean the literal definition of currency as something that is used as a medium of exchange.
Even online, there are only a few stores who are accepting it as payment.
Nobody is ready to use some kind of currency where they wake up the next day and start hearing stories like they have lost their money because the price or value dropped within a minute or so. Nobody is ready for cryptocurrency because they are volatile, and you cant be making use of a currency that is as volatile as it is. So its not safe yet.
