You could actually use bitcoin essentially as the payment "rails" for a transaction, so that people don't hold bitcoin and immediately then convert back into local currency, and therefore get around the price changes. Companies like coinbase already allow merchants to do this. Also, bitcoin prices will stabilize over time & as more people use the currency.
