Great post @teamsteem! It also blows me away how little even friends and family understand what our current monetary system actually is (USA).
I really think that what's holding back crypto's from the general public isn't even the fact that people don't want another currency - we use many forms of online payments (PayPal, etc) - it's the barrier and complexity of these coins and ways of purchasing them that's the real draw back in my opinion.
I believe that whoever creates the first and best '1-click' type of UI /UX that takes all the thinking about buying into a coin will be the one to rule the market.
People want and need simplicity in their lives. We're bombarded by so many distractions in a day - the last thing a normal person wants to do is have to deconstruct how buy a coin and the usual in-depth process that's involved in doing that.
If they could pull an Amazon and 1-click it into their shopping cart it would be a different story.
Cryptocurrencies don't need it. They will thrive and opportunist will profit early but in the end I really think they have the power to radically change our society.
