Bitcoin becoming more and more the financial backbone...

And the network expands... Some old techs may remember this line:

The best network is the kind that no user knows they are using.

Whether bitcoin is used knowingly or not, the uses for just transferring "money" is far greater for us humans than anything else. This universe transacts in energy, and everything is built on top of that.

This provable understanding is what causes the hidden momentum to continue with bitcoin.
