Regarding your concern about ideal currency is quite complicated since there is no bitcoin existence on real life and worldwide governments don't want to support it due to many reasons. Most probably we would see more advance and ideal currency in future which would exist even on real life, but who know about future.
I think that this bitcoin can be an ideal currency in the future, but the question is when? These days, fiat currency is really effective and the most useful currency that the community is using. Fiat currency is not that easy to steal compared to a bitcoin that can be hacked, and lose due to wrong addresses. Also mass adoption is not that easy to acquire especially that's why most of the government in this world is still not legalizing the bitcoin to regulate in their market. Bitcoin can help an economy grow once it is in its peak but we all know that it is very volatile compared to other coins. So in conclusion, I will still choose fiat over bitcoin as a mode of payment in many transactions because digital currency is only useful during this kind of pandemic that doesn't require people to have physical transactions.
