This can result in lower fees and more stability, which actually makes it a more convenient payment option and more likely to be used by businesses like Overstock and Steam which began accepting Bitcoin during a more plateaued period.
The writer also makes a bold assumption about the usage of BTC in poorer countries:

The writer also makes a bold assumption about the usage of BTC in poorer countries:
will a Bitcoin crash take down these poor countries’ banking infrastructure and economies altogether? Somewhat unlikely, but I wouldn’t keep my money in an African bank, would you?
