Banks probably have a worse reputation right now than at any other point in history. People only put up with them because they don't think there's an alternative. They don't need to "wake up and realise" anything, they just need to see something that works and provides a practical benefit and that's what we're working towards.
Also most people don't give a crap about anything important, which is why everything is celebrity gossip and reality tv these days. That doesn't mean we should stop doing what we're doing and it doesn't mean we aren't going to see a surge in use in the future.
Your post also assumes the global economy getting better, but not all of us see that happening. Since banks now have their dirty little fingers in so many pies, all it takes is for a few markets to take a downturn and they're suddenly in deep financial trouble. If more bail-ins like Cyprus happen, you can bet people won't be prepared to tolerate that and will be looking for a way out.
Even if banks have a worse reputation right now than any other point in history, banks in general still has a better reputation than bitcoin. The current bitcoin doesn't provide a practical benefit for the majority of the people.
people don't give a crap about centralization either, you are really naive if you think otherwise, they just use banks to store money because they are accustomed to it there is no other reasons, the humanity is lazy animal, they want everything ready, don't like big change and other lazy things like that.
bitcoin success isn't a thing that a man can achieve, it need time/adoption and the fix of numerous weaknesses(like 51%, various unknown bugs in the client, ecc...)
No, they don't give about centralization. I never said they did. You're falling into the logical fallacy of assuming the converse is always true.
Your point that humans are lazy is exactly the point I was trying to make.
I don't think bitcoins are 'delusional to "decentralized" hype'. Sure it is a benefit to most here but that's not the only selling point. I think you have to admit it really has the potential at least to shake up the current banking system or payment processors. There's also a multitude of uses for it as an alternative currency and remittance tool.
I also agree that it's not the only selling point. In fact, I would say it is the biggest disadvantage and obstacle in an otherwise great technology.
Look, I think you guys are misunderstanding my point. I'm not saying bitcoin will fail. I'm saying if people keep thinking that bitcoin will succeed without anyone doing anything because decentralization is so freaking amazing, they're being delusional. For bitcoin to succeed, there needs to be thousands or tens of thousands of people working hard to make it more usable, more secure, and bring benefit to the average person. It won't succeed just because it's decentralized, and there is a long and tough road ahead. It's not hard for banks/governments to make the media write negatively about decentralization and telling people they need banks and the government, and given how stupid/lazy normal people sheep are, they'll just believe it without researching anything themselves.
It's a really tough road, and we should be doing all we can to get it going, to make it go mainstream, if we really believe in this technology. Because it's not going to that by itself.
