It isnt like other technologies haven't taken similar routes. We just expect everything to happen right now because we're so spoiled.\n\nHere are some things that took longer for mass adoption than Bitcoin has even existed for. You've probably heard of some of them:\n\nElectricity\nFlushing toilets\nAutomobiles\nCommercial internet\nTelephones\nRadio\nTV\nFax\n\nInfrastructure was probably a hangup for most of those. And I think the current issue is an infrastructure one too. Except there's already an existing infrastructure that half the world can access. They don't yet realize there's a better option. Other people are, just not those you think should be.\n\nIt's also pretty common for new technologies to have fluctuations in adoption rates. And you're presupposing that \"adoption\" means what you think it should mean. My point is that it may not be and may shift.\n\nI'm just trying to put aside my bullish biases. When I do, I see similarities to other things and admittedly don't like the implication. But that doesn't mean it's cope or untrue. And there's no law that says adoption must go my way at the pace I think it should. It's being used, whether or not I like how."}
