How does Bitcoin Ownership work?

What are Bitcoin Receipts?

Just to hold you to a high standard, #s 8-18 aren’t facts. We’re currently “store of value” phase with an emerging “means of exchange”

Mass adoption of the “store of value” utility will lead it to higher “means of exchange” adoption, with emerging “unit of account” utility.

IMO, there is nothing wrong with getting to 1 BTC = 1M USD using primarily the “store of value” utility alone.

I agree with almost all of this. I will say that it’s designed to be a speculative store of value - this is why Satoshi didn’t give us all 21m coins at once. This is why people today hold it.

But as you correctly exclaim - it is so much more than that.
