So, I get the argument that Bitcoin will stay something niche for most people, similar to Linux. I think that's certainly the case currently.

We can build bridges between fiat and Bitcoin, but like proton or wine, they will always add friction.

What do you think is needed to overcome this nicheness? Would it actually be bad if Bitcoin stays less user facing and more relevant in the backgroundy, like Linux?

Linux doesn't allow me to circumvent foreign exchange fees.

Cashu. Send money as easy as a link. Real money, like gold backed money. Not everyone carried around gold, but everyone carried around money or promises based on it.

The "Just run your own BTC server" crowd underestimate the pleasurr principal it not even knowing how a mouse works. People have all the world info in their hand, yet watch tiktok.
