for me, I use bitcoin or other cryptocurrency just for investment or trading. For investment, I usually buy BTC and will hold it for 5-10 years, but this way is very risky because the price of bitcoin tends to be unstable.
in my own country there is also a bitcoin ATM, the way the ATM works is we send the bitcoin we have and the money(Fiat) will come out of the machine. besides that there are also many restaurants that accept the bitcoin payment method.
yes I agree with your statement, many out there people just stay quiet but want the price of bitcoin to always be high and keep rising. so if you want bitcoin to remain stable and keep rising you should often promote bitcoin to others.
i think the price right now not recovering cause if you see now the bitcoin price falls again to $3,578.71 (22 December 2019). so this bitcoin or cryptocurrency has a volatile price, sometime it go up and sometime it go down in just a few days.
as long as there is still a request for the purchase of bitcoin in my opinion it will not end, even though the price of bitcoin is now falling, it remains relaxed because bitcoin also often experiences things like this. just keep spreading good news about bitcoin
maybe there are some people who don't accept bitcoin because they see that bitcoin has a price that is easy to change, besides that bitcoin is still illegal in some big countries so maybe having bitcoin will be very risky according to them
because people still don't know about bitcoin fully, besides there are also some who know about bitcoin but are afraid to invest or buy bitcoin because of the ever-changing value
