Bitcoin was a great experiment... but it arguably failed.
Nobody really ever used it for normal things.
The one attempt at actually attempting to take a first step to fix scaling issues collapsed due to governance issues.
It never worked as a reliable store of value or means of reasonably transferring funds.
Really cool project but it was an experiment. We can still learn from failed experiments to make even better new ones...
