How is bitcoin freedom? You can't even buy a cup of coffee with it anymore. The fees cost more than the coffee and if you have to sit around waiting for the transaction to confirm, you might as well purchase another cup or two in advance....Plus, bitcoin chains you to your mobile device....Nah, bitcoin ain't freedom, it's just another way to spend money in secret.
You can actually buy these things in Bitcoin but it might not be available in your country yet. It is also accepted in hotels, airlines, 100k+ stores in Japan ae accepting it ans some stores across the globe. If somehow your country would officially start accepting Bitcoin then it will gain popularity in your area and entrepreneurs to also accept it since they know it is secured and supported by the government. Government's support really is a big factor.
The freedom that the OP is talking is the freedom to your finances which unlike in the bank that questions you especially if you withdraw or deposit a huge sum of money. In Bitcoin, you can transfer it 24/7 that is anytime and anywhere. Regarding transaction fees, well in the past it is little and I hope it will come back to that to enable microtransactions.
I can buy stuff with bitcoin where I am too; however, it's much easier, more efficient, and quicker to use cash. I understand that bitcoin is nice to have if you want to carry large chunks of value around the world, but having cash for daily expenses represents freedom a lot more clearly than bitcoin....And, when it comes down to it, what percentage of the worlds population actually has the problem of having too much cash to fit in a carry on bag for which they would need to use bitcoin?
