You'd be surprised how practically possible it is to live without bank accounts in certain parts of Latin America (and not only), if you're pragmatic about it. Bitrefill, debit cards you can charge, tons of exchange places that accept both bitcoin and (much much more) usdt, and most important of all: countries where cash transactions remain the norm. A huge reason it seems so bad in much of Europe is because cash is slowly being softbanned.

Sure, but then you force a person to flee their country. You impact lives, families… not as easy at it seems. We cannot settle on the status quo. We need to keep fighting. This is not enough.
Real world experience also in countries like El Salvador shows that living on a bitcoin standard is still a dream.
I've lived in El Salvador for 3 years, mostly on bitcoin. It's not just a dream. To me the actual unrealistic thing is to try to push bitcoin adoption in jurisdictions where there is very little motivation. You have to "read the room", so to speak.
Also accepting the status quo is risky. What if the IMF crushes down on El Salvador (like they are doing apparently). I do not want to live a life escaping these guys jumping from country to country. We need to stand up and fight everywhere in the world for adoption. They need to fear us not viceversa.
Bitrefill: could be shut down, forced to KYC.
Debit cards: 99% KYC, 1% at risk to be shut down with your money on it
Places accepting bitcoin: as said, not many, unless willing to relocate, but mixed feedbacks from those who tried.
Cash: you need to have a job where you can earn cash in an economical world fighting it like hell.
IMHO the lever is increasing the number of places accepting bitcoin and people spending bitcoin. This is in our hands.
All the other ways out will be too fragile.
