True about buying BTC in the states, but overseas, there are Bitcoin ATM's popping up all over the place. In Venezuela it is practically the only way to buy anything because their currency is fucked. Like I said, the USA is way behind the rest of the world and that's strange because usually we are pretty tech savvy. Also I've made a number of large purchases with BTC with no issues, but I seldom use it to spend. I use it to hold coin from prying eyes. Some of the other coins will be used for spending like Dash, Zcash and etc. Right now the big dogs are sniffing around, Japan just jumped in with both feet, Russia just made crypto legit. When Europe goes to hell in a handbasket with the new nationalism, guess where people will be stashing their monies? Cha-Ching! As far as it being easy to buy and spend, there are plenty of people out there worldwide having no problems figuring it out. Eventually BTC is going to reach those hypothetical numbers. Even at $1600 per coin, BTC is a buy now.
