Agreed. Just after I saw the topic I thought exactly the same.
Honestly I'm a little surprised that newbie said that. Generally all newbies have very optimistic thoughts about bitcoin usage over the globe Cheesy

Bitcoin's price should to jump so fast and deeply to people use it in daily life. Currently everyone concentrated on its trading in search of fast profit due to sharply unstable price.

Exactly. Most newbies talk positive about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies due to their lack of knowledge among the space. Of course, not all newbies are the same, but the majority only believes on Bitcoin as a speculative instrument or as a tool for making profit. The high volatility of Bitcoin makes it difficult to be used as a currency daily. Only with regulations across the crypto market, Bitcoin's price could be stabilized.

Also, fees need to stay as low as possible for transactions to be practical within the mainstream world. Transaction confirmation times is another thing to have into consideration when using Bitcoin as a currency. If we want to attract as many people as we'd like, we need to show them the benefits of Bitcoin relative to traditional Fiat currency. Most people are afraid because of scams and hacks, but proper education will allow them to use Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies wisely.

With this, people would get to use Bitcoin as a currency. Otherwise, it will be considered as an asset and a speculative instrument that's only useful for making profit, instead of a real currency for the mainstream world. Just my opinion
