Bitcoin is not just for speculative gambling Nation state-linked companies are already settling their transactions in Bitcoin. Sure, they're using Bitcoin only as an intermediary, not as the end settlement unit of account, but this takes Bitcoin's utility far beyond gambling. Just because Bitcoin isn't replacing gold as money, doesn't mean that it's a failure. Just because Bitcoin bitcoin collapsed below 100K, doesn't mean it won't come back higher (liquidity cycles suggest it will). Extremes are better for engagement, but reality is very inclusive.
