The reason this article exists is because the price as measured in blood money is 26k. If it were 60k a whole different tune would be playing about how great of an idea it was. Actually imo its better now than at its high because moon boys want little to do with it while people who really understand why it exists use it just fine.
So you are saying that if Bitcoin weren't so volatile, then this would be a good idea? I mean, if my grandma had two wheels she'd be a bicycle.
No, i am saying that even though it is volitile it has people who will use it anyway. I am personally a monero user and i buy some on a monthly basis (id really love to get paid in it) and then pay my bills with it, spend it on things i want, and do it all again next month. I really don't have to concern myself with the price because i am organically using it and will get more in a few weeks no matter what the price does.
