What does mainstream adoption look like?
Will cryptocurrency even ever achieve mainstream adoption? Maybe it will, maybe it will not. Maybe we will see it, maybe we will not. Probably it would need a complete change of mindset. Even from its current users. For example using it directly, instead of selling it for fiat currency. It needs actual use cases, and a way to pay for everyday stuff with it. Maybe it is just/only a fantasy, but it could even replace the traditional monetary system. I think that it is possible, if enough people accept it directly as a payment.
Like @bhoa said, it's too early to judge, crypto is still a baby. crypto started in 2009 it is just 13 years old or there about. When the internet was 13 years old, at the time Facebook was just starting (5years in with a volume of about $300 million on NASDAQ), amazon (57 million) had not become such a huge success...everything was still vague. Call me an optimist though, I still feel we have a long way to go.
There are many other factors to a currency than just buying stuff. This is where most people go wrong.
Cryptocurrency being use case might be for its ability to invest in projects that generate real wealth.
