Discussion
Selling fiat
Exchanging a worthless piece of paper for real money.

Unfortunately there is some government coercion involved, that makes people feel like they have to have it. Additionally, many don’t know that Bitcoin solved the technical problem that led to gold backed dollars in the first place. They’ll come around.
