I think it’s a problem if you have to point to a poorly functioning country and go “see? Bitcoin works!” Meanwhile the poor locals need to somehow get enough technology and understand Bitcoin. And in developed countries, no one really wants it or only buy it to speculate, not to actually make transactions.

Bitcoin ATMs used to be on the rise where I live many years ago. And I could make purchases. Now they are all gone.

Seems like the people adopting crypto don’t have many choices.
