So far, bitcoin is only recognized as a commodity, asset or investment and I don't think they will change that anytime soon and encourage people to gradually use it as a currency. The simple reason is that governments will never accept a currency that they do not control.

Yes that is true but with enough demand they will most likely just want to accept it and regulate it instead of ban it and have people secretly use it instead which would be worse for them. Not to mention that accepting bitcoin would mean tax for them aka more money:

But if using bitcoin as currency is also taxed, do you think people will still continue to use it while with fiat money they don't need to pay extra taxes and transaction fees for any transaction?

Also, I also dont believe the demand for using Bitcoin as a currency will increase over time. Many people still deny, but to me, the goal of turning bitcoin into a currency has long failed when 99% of people participating in bitcoin are for profit. All have only one purpose, which is to accumulate as many bitcoins as possible because that is the way to get the most profit. Or everyone advises each other to hold as long as possible, no one advises to use bitcoin as currency, payment method...How can bitcoin become a payment method when no one wants to spend it?

To put it bluntly, the barriers preventing Bitcoin from becoming a currency and payment method come not only from governments but also from us, the bitcoin investors. Those who only use it as a speculative asset to get rich, no one wants to spend it.

If big stores like Amazon will accept Bitcoin payments, that will be cool because I have most of my money collected in Bitcoins and I convert them in USD every time I need some cash to pay for things, so if I'm able to pay with Bitcoin, that will save me some fees and speed up the purchasing process. One of the biggest benefit of Bitcoin for me is that I can't shop on some websites because they require billing to match shipping and such a thing doesn't exist in the banking system of my country, so I'm unable to purchase from some popular websites and Bitcoin fixes this problem.

I am not in the United states, I am way far away from America and in my country to use Fiat as payment is even limited, imagine you want to buy an expensive gadget that worth $6000 and your spending limit on every bank account can't exceed $3000 per month.

If BTC payment become a thing then it will make a lot of sense, I can decide to spend $10,000 per day if I want or can.

I'm not in the USA but I am a regular customer of Amazon and other US stores caues I can ship them from the USA to my country via freight forwarder companies. Btw you don't have to worry about the limit, you can call the bank, tell them your situation and you and your bank will find a solution. In my country, you can pay a more for special Visa card and then your limit will significantly increase.

As for now, it's totally true - most want to hodl, not to use their BTCs, and to get even more for the years to come, while not shaking out what's already on their bags.

To change this up is to give people more incentive to use BTC for what it really is, a currency, and an alternative.

Though I wonder what may bring such a big shift in perception..

The GENIUS act bill that was passed yesterday by Trump has everything to do with USDT and other stable coins, I get it but at least now things are looking more smoother for crypto payment? I believe that using the likes of stable coins and Bitcoin to pay online will now be more possible?

What do you think? Or am I getting way ahead of myself? I so much look forward for BTC payment option on large online stores like Amazon, because I can't find anything else that's easier for payment online than this.

I am not in the United states, I am way far away from America and in my country to use Fiat as payment is even limited, imagine you want to buy an expensive gadget that worth $6000 and your spending limit on every bank account can't exceed $3000 per month.

If BTC payment become a thing then it will make a lot of sense, I can decide to spend $10,000 per day if I want or can.

Aside from other qualities of Bitcoin, the two major things that make it more attractive and unique than every other crypto and fiat currency out there are its security and scarcity.From the year 2024-2025, Bitcoin has taken a new direction in its level of adoption and recognition more than what we've ever had before, particularly from the institutional perspective.

Definitely we're going to see a move into a clearer phase of adoption where Bitcoin will likely be recognised as a currency for global payment system, where fiat currencies will only have its use on the local side and this is why we see the US is positioning itself before many other countries begin to follow suit.

I do think it will be a race between CBDCs and BTC, not even a race - but a coexistence of the two.

We would all know which one is better, of course Cool
