What should happen for you to say that Bitcoin has taken off?
1 comments

I guess I should clarify that I mean scepticism relative to what early proponents of bitcoin were suggesting would happen. So by taken off I mean things like replacing fiat currency in everyday use for a large number of people.

Edit: Compare to that what Dropbox may have suggested at their launch, something like "we will replace USB thumb drives", which would have sounded very ambitious at the time but was in fact pretty much true, for a large number of people.
