So it’s a fungible store of value that cannot be turned into useful currency.

Lovely.

So everyone just needs to buy enough bitcoin until every business randomly decides to start accepting bitcoin?

Can you provide any examples in history of a similar non-government currency having to wait for such a circumstance? Or a government one that wasn’t just waiting for a predetermined switch over date?

Why do you need to turn it into dollars or euros for it to be useful currency? Just transact directly.
