I'm not sure you are me are using the same definition of simple. Typing 16 digits plus four digits on the front and three digits from the back of a card in your pocket is incredibly simple. I just described it in one short declarative sentence. In addition it is mildly tedious, and slightly inconvenient. But extremely simple it remains. In contrast, bitcoin requires typing in an extremely long and essentially random sequence of alphanumeric characters. Except that it doesn't you say? Because an app can automate it? Oh wait. |

Except you forgot: you have to type the expiration date, the cardholder's name, and sometimes the full billing address. I will repeat again: typing the CC billing info is not simple enough and this is the number one reason e-commerce sales conducted on mobile are not as high as sales conducted on the desktop.

No. It sounds like you have never made a Bitcoin purchase. Typically the merchant's site launches your local wallet app via a "bitcoin:" URI pre-populated with an address and an amount -> click OK to confirm transaction -> done.
