I think it'd be a problem if Bitcoin becomes user friendly, because if it's decentralized it just cannot be.

You're on your own. There's no Bitcoin worker who is obliged to help you with your wallets. You are free to create, deposit to, withdraw or sign from and use an address in any way you'd like - even share the private key to it, if you will. You're just free to educate yourself and, if you're interested, to join the network. Computers aren't user-friendly either. Yet, they're being sold every year "like hot bread" (a Romanian saying).

Let it happen naturally; let the interested ones educate themselves & join us and the non-interested ones stay away.

I get what you are saying but I'm not sure I see the connection. How does it being decentralized have an effect on how user-friendly it is? I suppose in concept, Bitcoin being decentralized means each user is responsible for the managing of their own wallet/other services, but in my opinion, those wallets and trade services are quite easy to use, and over the past years it has become increasingly cleaner and simple to use. It's definitely true that the concept of bitcoin and how it works is not simple, and does require you to learn and do research on your own. But once you understand how bitcoin works, actually going about sending and receiving btc, for example, is quite simple and in my opinion, far more simple than traditional means of sending and receiving money, especially large amounts. I could be standing next to someone and offer to exchange bitcoin and all I would need to do is scan their bitcoin wallet QR code. Last time I checked, TD Bank would have a much more complicated process Cheesy
