Square has over 2,000,000 merchants and a CEO that loves Bitcoin. With one click, Square could enable over 2,000,000 businesses to accept BTC

I won't be spending BTC until merchants require me to pay with it. I'd much rather give them my centralized fiat coins for as long as they'll accept em.

Good luck man. You've reached the enlightenment stage. At some point your brain will tell you to venture into other "cryptos" (God I hate that word). Ignore that urge as they offer nothing of value over bitcoin.

I'll be honest I was getting a little worried about this market and it's future until today

affirmed_78

Problem is people are really dumb. Just look at the proliferation of alts. I don't have faith that the general populace will wise up and realize that bitcoin is the only alternative (and not the million other "cryptos"). I'd love to be wrong but for now we're stuck with USD. The price rise has been based on hype just like the dotcom bubble. Sure there are underlying reasons why bitcoin makes sense, but that's not why most people own it. They own it purely as a trading vehicle. And that CERTAINLY goes for the alts, which serve no useful purpose whatsoever, besides being inferior bitcoin copycats.

Since the beginning of 2017 I've been giving people bitcoin.

affirmed_78

It's up to the community to evangelize for bitcoin, explain why it's so important, and explain why altcoins are inferior. My concern is that with all of the garbage altcoins out there, and the complexity of setting up a wallet and storing BTC, people just won't bother with it. Then again maybe BTC is just a niche store of value, on a much smaller scale than gold. I hope that's not the case, but we have to be honest with ourselves.

Automated clearing house. Using this method allows direct transfer of funds from your bank account. Not as quick as a wire but the funds are usually available for trading immediately, you just wait a few days to be able to withdraw them.

Set aside all the technological reasons why BTC is superior, the world would never switch over to Bcash for the simple fact that people hate Roger and Jihan. Most people don't like dictators.

I know there are services than can convert to USD or whatever right at the time of purchase, but usually there's a slight lag so I'm not sure how that works and whether it causes capital gains/losses. Also not sure how it would work with LN because if they accept a LN payment, can that also be converted to USD instantly? I don't know of any LN exchanges, yet.
