An uncensorable store of value/currency is like an amphibious vehicle for most: pretty cool but they are never going to need one.

The problem isn’t that people are never going to need “An uncensorable store of value/currency”

the problem is that bitcoin is simply video game money masquerading as “An uncensorable store of value/currency”
