Its not that people don't know about cryptocurrency its just that people is not ready to make it their primary payments for everything that they are doing or buying because just like what the first person said it is embedded to the community and for the next century it will still be, its hard to change something that people is comfortable from and has been doing for so many years and honestly i agree with what you have said i would not want to struggle every single day just be because people are not accepting bitcoin as payment. For people who wanted to try living with only using bitcoin lets drop it for now we cant live doing it but its not possible to do so because many years from now maybe most of the essential stores will accept alternative payment like bitcoin.
Several things that make individuals consider investing in Bitcoin apart from government regulations are because volatility is usually considered a bubble and nightmare when the value of an object is too high and then explodes, then drops dramatically. Many voices of someone's overnight loss or stories of people pretending to lose in order to deceive investors.
Even if someone learns that the internet bubble occurs when the internet touches the social side of humans, so is bitcoin today an alternative economic system and a rare asset that brings a new paradigm shift in modern civilization. The final consideration is that fiscal and monetary policy has a bad impact, one of which is the decline in confidence in the value of certain currencies, crypto-assets such as Bitcoin act as an element of democratization and intermediary for new values. So bitcoin can be said to be an agent of change, even though it is outside the system but de facto, bitcoin exists.
