It's the people that's using bitcoin as a P2P payment that had created the concern that you're talking about, when more and more people are buying bitcoin, the demand increases and with the demand increasing then it will eventually make the price of bitcoin higher because people are willing to pay to get their hands on bitcoin and maybe you're right that a lot of people have forgotten what it's used for but the function of being a P2P is still there so it's nothing worthy of concern as long as the feature is still there waiting to be used.
