As right now BTC is more of a store of value. The value of it is not high enough to be able to use mainstream for the global market as the money system. For all markets to be based on.
I will accept the fact that bitcoin is more of store of value despite it has other functionality. And the reason I said so is that bitcoin transaction fee is high to be used for frequent transactions expecially using it to buy some minimal things like a $5 or $10 worth of commodity will charge you alot that is why I accept the fact that it is a store of value.
Then talking about the value not high enough to be used as a mainstream, I think you are confused here. Or probably I am the one who is not understanding you. If I may ask, at what value in $$ would you prefer for it to be used as a meanstream in the world market? Because people are already complaining that btc is too expensive to be used as meanstream for global market and you are saying its not enough. The popular USD used globally is just $1 and it is used online as a means of payment why must btc be more than the actual price to be what you desire. Anyways btc will gradually meet your expectations sooner.
Do you think that if ever there becomes more adoption, BTC would be and able to be used for mainstream like a global money? Does the tech work enough that it could handle the global market?
why or why not?
Bitcoin is more than enough to Handle the global markets. Just that mempool will be contested and the transaction fee would be high just as @Dr. Bitcoin strange has predicted.
