This is true. What also is missing is a good rhetoric. My initial excitement about Bitcoin continues, and the reasons persist, but there aren't very convincing arguments put forward for people alien to hardcore computing or economy, and I realize that I can't put into words why the concept is very convincing for me. It's just that the humanity needs it, and there are a multitude of reasons why. As with a lot of free projects, we would all be better off if everyone used it, but the scene lacks coherence and simple introduction.

I think that we must act quickly before Google/Apple/Amazon/Microsoft/Facebook launches a competing block chain (after having mined a few million themselves) and pushes their own version of secure cash to ~500 million users in one fell swoop.

The WeUseCoins video is great, as it's professionally done and coherent enough to get a good overview of Bitcoin. But we really need new videos & a better bitcoin.org that eases the newbie into the material without simply saying "it's in the wiki."
