Today, since bitcoin passed the 24,000$'s mark, it immediately became a trend topic on Twitter, and people took the opportunity to share some news of bitcoin adoption around the world, similar to the one presented in OP. I didn't know, but it was said 770 shops in South Africa already accept bitcoin as payment method. That is a good signal bitcoin isn't being adopted only by investors, but also by merchants and retail sellers.
As fiat currencies get more depreciated, it's likely news like this become more common each new day.
bitcoin will grow more and more, and more people will adopt it, especially when the bitcoin price soars, of course there will be many people who want to own it to make a profit. on the other hand, with so many shops opening payment services with bitcoin, you will feel that the main function of bitcoin will be realized, although we don't know when this will happen in its entirety, what is clear is that more and more users are day by day
