Yes I think the conversion could go many ways from here, but a touch point is in the aggregate. The scope of the problem is quite large. We changed the infrastructure, but not the people so nothing changed.

Imagine how many people today use the phrase "turn on" or "turn off" yet they are pressing buttons, not turning a dial. Likewise, how many people today "dial phone numbers" when, again, there is no dial. They're tapping zones on a touch screen coordinate grid.

We changed the infrastructure so that people like me have a good tool. It's at the very least a momentary advantage. But yes the people matter more. Bitcoin is only as good as the people using it. The republic called the United States failed miserably because they simply created a new government just like the old one. Bitcoin is a voluntary republic, and those who follow a fork of it that becomes involuntary and government money, well, they follow the same route as the people who put their faith into the United States instead of into freedom and logic themselves.
