It will always be transferable. The ability to trade a tiny bit of your long term savings for things of value, without permission is huge. The fact that we don't use it as a currency is more indicative of how we mostly trade. I use bitcoin with people that I trust who provide me things of value. No second thoughts.

It's often not advantageous to use bitcoin right now but the fact that you can is huge. You can set up to receive it anonymously in seconds, that knowledge will spread when it matters.

I think empowering the individual to resist the insidious hidden tax (inflation) is huge. Many will turn to it again & I think an emphasis on long term savings with little to no third party risk will resonate. They can spend it once they control it.

I trade reasonably privately using cash right now. I don't have a MoE problem but without bitcoin, I have a long term SoV problem.

I can see now the increasing abundance was always there, I was just using the wrong denominator. The more my mind prices things in sats, the better I can perceive what is actually happening & make better choices.

Spreading the reality of that abundance by making better choices fills me with excitement & passion.

It may take us centuries, but the people will rise again.
