Not sure that I would call it adoption but it surely gave Bitcoin A LOT of publicity in terms of being a currency/asset that requires zero permission. It's just unfortunate that a lot of people had to realize it only when in times like this — like they had to literally see it with their own eyes instead of just realizing it through studying it.
it's really sad to see many people who study bitcoin but never want to see the good side. they say bitcoin does not have regulation, prices are not stable etc blah blah blah, but look at how easy it is provided to anyone when transacting with bitcoin.....
