How can we get steem to be universally accepted and used in transactions the way bitcoin is? If we can do that... sky is the limit for it as well...

That would be amazing!

It seems to me that making steem easier to buy than bitcoin without sacrificing bitcoin's once spent no recourse would do the job, and, of course, getting many businesses to accept steem.
