The fact that everyone is saying it's already a global currency is enough for us to know that we are already there. The price hit over 100k, and it will probably hit over 200k and even 1 million one day, obviously not right away but one day. This is why I think it's great that we are doing what we wish to do and that will be fine. However, most people are missing a chance that we are seeing this be different, because they are selling and getting out, that is really sad. We are global and will stay global.

To say is one thing. To see facts is another.

It's about the FOMO and the FUD mindsents that change one another every cycle Grin

There is a lot to be done still for BTC to become truly global, imo, not only for p2p area, but as a true alternative to fiat.

Since Bitcoin was created, many believed it could become a universally accepted currency—borderless, fast, and independent from governments. But in reality, can Bitcoin ever be used for everyday purchases? Issues like slow transaction fees, network congestion, volatility, and merchant adoption remain challenges today. While solutions like Lightning Network continue to improve speed and cost, there’s still a long way to go. Do you think Bitcoin will ever function as a global currency, or will it stay more as an investment and store of value?

absolutly why not? Bitcoin is used globally and works in the same structure in every country. however people may argue due to the fluctuation in the price daily it may not be used on a daily basis as a global currency. also the way the platform works in the scalability can be questioned as it is only able to produce a limited amount of transactions per second. so more likely to stay as investment opportunity then global currency unless this changes which we never know.

I feel like if Trump wants this he would make this happen, just a random thought reading this subject.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to "non-custodial"

Yes. 

It is better to have actual examples of usage of bitcoin all over the world and even changing in and out of bitcoin all over the world and even various kinds of transactions for goods and/or services paid in bitcoin.

And sure there may be some locations that it is easier to transfer in and out of bitcoin and other places that have various obstacles, and most likely many of the obstacles are government imposed rather than limitations in the technology.. and surely obstacles interfere with adoption, yet I doubt that governments necessarily need to be involved or even to accept that usage of bitcoin if some individuals choose to transact privately - to the extent that their privacy can be maintained while many governments are employing more and more ways to monitor and control normal people.

Are you delusional? You think that Trump is on the side of financial freedom and/or self-sovereignty?
 
He's on the side of appearing to be on the side that works to get him what he wants, and he does not really want bitcoin to be something that is freely held and used by the people.

Trump probably does not even really know what bitcoin is.  He even says that he doesn't know, but he relies on what others say about it, but that does not mean that Trump wants the people to freely be able to use bitcoin.

1) Self-Custody is a right.  Resist being labelled as: "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k
