We are not out of the general goal that bitcoin was created, you can send bitcoin to anyone at any time at any place if you have data connection but people prefer to save their coins on their wallet because the price of bitcoin is increasing with the chart that I saw but people are making bitcoin transaction daily which is the payment.
Most of the bitcoin transactions that I even notice that people make on a daily basis are not because they are making payment with it but because they are moving it from one wallet to the other. Either one place seems not to be very secure, and they decided to move it to a more secure one, or sometimes it's moving it from a centralized system down to a wallet where they will have full control over it.
