Are you sure about this? Are you using a bank to buy bitcoin and are you using bitcoin to pay your daily bills? And how many relatives and friends abroad do you have who use bitcoin to transfer money? As long as fiat currency remains the world's official currency, there will be no way for you to survive just owning bitcoin. Not to mention, bitcoin is not free and to own it you need money or a bank account to buy and sell bitcoin.
In addition, banks are not only places to deposit savings and transfer money abroad, but also provide many services such as insurance, mortgages and loans, which are probably their strengths. Can Bitcoin provide lending services to businesses and entrepreneurs? Don't be naive to think that bitcoin can replace the role of banks.
Bitcoin is not used in mainstream, but you can definitely get a job that pays in Bitcoin today.
Are you talking about the signature campaign on our forum? Besides the signature campaign, are there any jobs that pay in bitcoin that any worker can easily find and join? And if you stop participating in signature campaigns, are you sure you'll find another job that accepts bitcoin payments?
You can also pay in Bitcoin for certain things. We are in the process of potentially creating a Bitcoin world.
At the moment there are companies that take your Bitcoin and they process your bills with fiat, so in a way you can live today with Bitcoin only. For example check out this for Australia:

https://ledn.ioYes, there are already some stores that accept bitcoin payments but the question is how many such stores are there and when will we see a world that completely uses bitcoin as a means of payment, 100 years or 1000 years from now?
As I asked before, are you using banks to buy bitcoins and have you ever tried to stop using banks and just use bitcoins for your life?
You gave me a link to a company that accepts bitcoin collateral loans, but do you guarantee that it will be as safe as a bank? And do you realize that this is a private and centralized company, they are using bitcoin as collateral rather than a service provided by bitcoin itself?
