Apathy and volatility

fear of technology
Complexity and its digital nature, amongst other reasons... 🥲
Easy on ramps to Bitcoin and the understanding to spread Bitcoin through use…
People needs to use Bitcoin without knowing they use Bitcoin. Like they use TCP/IP without knowing they use it.
We needs apps and services that looks like what they are using today with banks and cards.
Anyone must be able to show up in any shop and restaurant anywhere in the world, get the amount to pay on a terminal, pass a card or their phone on the terminal, and it's paid (+PIN or biometric unlock for amount above a chosen limit).
No need to ask : can I pay in Bitcoin ? do you support Lightning/Liquid ? What is it in sats ? Which app is compatible ?...
You show up, need to pay, 99% of the time it works without asking questions. Not being able to pay in Bitcoin should be the rare exception like today the cash only place or card only place (depending on your country).
CCCCCAPITAL gain taxes -- Bitcoin will never be "money" until people can use it to buy a cup of coffee without having to account for it on their taxes.
I will fight you if you think otherwise. Back 10 years ago you could have said "oh well you can't use it for retail, because 10 minute transactions, etc etc." No more. Lightning zaps show how this works.
It's ready for everyday transactions today, TECHNICALLY but not LEGALLY
