On point 4, when do these “huge uses” start to appear?

Bitcoin’s been around for what… 13 years now? Seems to be speculators, scammers, money launderers, and phishing/hacking rings still.

Everything that tries to accept bitcoin for payment seems to stop doing so relatively quickly.

It’s intentionally deflationary so anyone who holds a bitcoin is incentivized to hold it, not use it.

Just bizarre.

Companies are holding BTC instead of treasuries, nations are issuing Bitcoin bonds, millions of people are buying in as governments print themselves into sinkholes..

Where is the use case?

Bitcoin already proved its use case years ago, it already won. The only question now is how far can it go.
