>what is bitcoin useful for right now
Drugs, ransomware, and maybe web hosting or a remote shell.
>if all my money is tomorrow BTC instead of USD, for instance, how will I survive without converting it back into USD every time I needed to use it?
You won't. Crypto-libertarian dweebs are convinced that someday somebody will accept their Dunning-Krugerrands in exchange for goods and services, but right now the price is so volatile that everyone who owns them won't spend them to pay for milk and bread if it's likely they will be worth twice as much next week as they were this week, and nobody selling real world necessities gives enough of a shit to go out of their way to accept them.
