IMHO, #BTC needs to find a way to stabilize and/or decouple from fiat currencies in order to successfully become a truly successful currency.
It's so hard for regular BTC hodlers, let alone normies, to justify spending Bitcoin knowing that they could wake up tomorrow with another $10,000 pizza situation. Sadly, that volatility is a real albatross on the usage aspect.
Even the #Bitcoin people that I know openly say things like "Spend fiat, save BTC." Which doesn't really help adoption or growth, unfortunately.
