Use your Bitcoin. We saturated the curious and early adopters. Now bring the utility.
Great article by Roy Sheinfeld.
I would add this:
1. In western countries "better saving tech" is also great utility
2. Cross border remittances are great utility
3. Big yes to connecting creators (musicians, writers..) with consumers more directly w/o middleman. This has great potential. In these segments the middlemans are taking too much. But also we can connect creators and consumers more directly - fountain.fm is not just for consuming podcasts but also for communicating with the podcasts. Let's spread this model to other intustries.
4. Big strength of Bitcoin comes from the fact that it cannot be easily confiscated or devalued. But this is something people don't appreciate until it's too late. Paradoxically people in coconut countries has advantage here because they more clearly understand the issues with fiat money.
