I see the following uses for cryptocurrency:
- Turning my "being good with computers" / learning about it early on the internet into money
- Buying illegal stuff on the darknet (which I didn't do yet)
- Speculating / Gambling
- Transferring wealth across borders while avoiding high conversion fees
While these are typical money functions, they are all fringe activities. I don't see myself ever using bitcoin as a replacement for Euros - that is for receiving my salary, for buying things (that I can get legally), for investing or saving.
One reason is I don't share the crypto-idealists idea of an anarcho-capitalist utopia...
