Your pure understanding about Bitcoin is quiet more difference between you and ordinary-man's understanding just as few people have said here and i want to see it as a choice for people to choose whether to buy and hold or to start involving their daily activities with bitcoin like using it for rent a building, or pay rent, transaction, tuition fees, name it all. Until they have a clear understanding on how it works then i don't think they will be open to jump into BTC mostly what happened last year; many of them jump into the market having the mind that it will hit to $100k but it was rather went down which led most of them to panic and pulled out from the market. At this point is not a thing of comparism but it takes gradual processes so let watch how it goes before the year ends.
