I'm asking why Bitcoin hasn't been scaled to a point where it can be used more widely, which involves technicalities with the Blockchain design.
Bitcoin adoption has increased over the years. The currency has become a key player in the global economic and political space. However, some conditions have slowed the speed of adoption..Price volatility could be one of the reasons why many people are not using it as a medium of exchange. Unfavorable government policies such as bans, fines, and other restrictions have also affected the spread of the use of Bitcoin.
Whether or not the technology could help offer a better alternative to the status-quo certainly is a matter of both technical and subjective debate.
Bitcoin was not created to replace fiat. Rather, it is meant to be a viable alternative, and it Is achieving that gradually. If not for this periodic attack of the mempool by ordinals, Bitcoin transactions is cheaper than fiat transactions.
