And of course: We may have a population of 8.x billion. But that includes children, the elderly, and people in rural areas who will probably never need Bitcoin. A 100% penetration would be thus in my opinion more close to 2-3 billion: one main user per family.
Maybe even less like that. Anyway, what does penetration even mean here? Owning any amount at all? Owning a significant amount? Using it regardless of how much you own?
at this point in time there are around 56 to 65 million btc addresses with money in them.
This is an irrelevant metric. Most people don't have an address at all, that does not mean that they don't have Bitcoin. I know that it is wrong, but people will use things how they want to use them.
I was already missing trolls like proudhon on the forum. In the end, they manage to generate traffic by talking nonsense, and I think that's something this forum is missing: people who have a pessimistic view of Bitcoin.
Just go to the buttcoin subreddit if you want those people, but sadly you will get banned very soon regardless of how good your arguments are.
