....and if you look at purely digital stuff, like apps, it's even faster. Whatsapp, Instagram, others reached huge markets in a very short time.
I can see a very simple way for Bitcoin to reach 4 Bn users in months: just have a major social media platform integrate it seamlessly in its app. Copy Nostr and add zaps to Twitter, Whatsapp or Telegram.
In the time it takes to update the userbase to the new features in the app, you have onboarded hundreds of millions of users.
