You can also print some paper wallets and smell on them Wink With the right printer you could also print them on the same paper as USD Cheesy
A paper wallet somewhat replaces the smell of cash.
Our cash is all plastice here anyway so not heaps of difference in our cash to a laminated paper wallet.

Exactly my thought, you can make paper wallets to look similar to money by design also, if you are such a fiat fan.
Claiming that this is a major flaw is dumb at the least.

Yea but bitcoin is not tangible, you can draw a 5 bitcoin note but that would not be bitcoin, just a simple drawing.

Well, one thing we got to understand is that bitcoin is just another form of money. A lot of the times that's not our first knowledge of bitcoin when we use it, but it's simply a more easier and digital money. I understand what you mean when you say you can't "smell" bitcoin, because not many consume or use it. It's just a matter of time before bitocoin goes bigger into the society where people are going to encounter bitcoin and have it just like a regular currency.

It's true that the lack of phisycal money  is something different from fiat and difficult to assimilate for normal people, but I think bitcoin has a bunch of advantages over fiat
