Some good points in here. Appreciate you reading it, and that's the honest question. Nobody can promise real gains from here, and I'd be wary of anyone who does.
My hunch is that if the growth comes, it won't come from one trigger. It'll come from savings slowly draining out of everything people use as a store of value today because they had nothing better: houses, bonds, gold, cash sitting in a bank. Bitcoin is still a small slice next to any of those. Coffee money can come later. What moves it is more people deciding it's a better place to park what they've earned.
And if it only ever holds value the way gold does, that's still a win for anyone who's watched their savings melt.
