---The most significant thing in Bitcoin is decentralization and protection. It is these things, as I would like to think, that give Bitcoin its ubiquity and force
That is why Bitcoin is anti-mainstream, many of the innovations it provides can overcome various problems in the current financial system. multi-functional can be used as an investment tool, trading commodity, and alternative payment, although its adoption is still limited. With all these benefits, users can get security, confidentiality, and transaction transparency. Very effective, even though there are some obstacles that are afraid of many people such as high volatility. Doesn't everything have a risk? as long as we are able to adapt, we can certainly minimize the risk.
A lot of people are hesitant with bitcoin because of the usual reasoning of volatility and aside from that the duration/fee of transaction. But if they will use other alts like maybe xrp or doge as payment, they won't complain much about the volatility and tx duration. But the problem is, btc is the most popular crypto up until this day, so it is hard to introduce other coins to the mainstream consumption. But if more and more people will patronize the usage of btc as payment, I guess those volatility factors will not be a question anymore from the users.
