I wonder why the bitcoin community does not evolve Bitcoin. I'm talking about major changes :

Reducing volatility
Why is it still impossible for me to pay with bitcoin in 99,99% of supermarkets, restaurants, gas stations
Make concessions to meet certain laws

Bitcoin is magnificent creation, but il must evolve and make concessions to reach a wider community.

volatility is not controlled by code. but by the people buying and selling coin
99% of places in your town dont accept bitcoin, maybe because you have not successfully asked the places in your town to accept bitcoin. so try to think about a nice way to mention the benefits of bitcoin and convince them to accept bitcoin.

remember you are the community. your friends family, merchants in your town are the potential growth. so go talk to them.

Reducing volatility

The more people start using it the less volatile the price will become.

How can you be sure of that ? Are there any argument to prove it?
Take the example of currencies like USD or Euro. There are 100 millions people who use them and yet there is need for a central bank to make the regulation.

Because not all merchants have adopted it yet. Just 2 years ago the idea that so many mainstream business would start accepting bitcoin was viewed by a lot of people as insane, so give it some time. There's still a long road ahead.

I agree with you. But why not be more proactive : What does the community do to make it easier for businesses to have a payment terminal for bitcoin for exemple.
