There's a good point here. Do bitcoiners create competitive products and services? Or are we just waiting for someone to accept our sats?
At least Proton is accepting it for email and VPNs etc. Plus some of their other services. Bitrefill is pretty good... although buying gift cards for things (everything?) may not be practical yet.
Bitcoin imo is pretty darn competitive... but it really takes education to use to its fullest.

Maybe on the digital side. But what about the physical? What bitcoiner is going to get into farming when they have enough purchasing power to retire?
I think it's just going to take a long time. If the volatility goes down, people will be less afraid and willing to accept it as a payment.
