Nobody uses Bitcoin that way--everybody uses the very centralized and very identified brokerages like Binance to actually buy and sell it. The libertarian fantasies of "currency without governments" never materialized nor will it.

Bitcoin will always be just another speculation instrument because it's too slow and too expensive to used for any other purpose. The reason is this useless religious garbage called "blockchain".
