Well, try to get a better understanding of history.
In the early days, Internet was limited to military use, then university circles. It's only the Web, the first Web browsers, and the creation of websites targeting the general public that mark the "real birth" of the Net in 1994-1995, from a public point of view. Only 5 or 6 years later, there were already 500M Internet users.
Plus, the fact that we have Internet and other networks (smartphones) is an obvious accelerator that should have benefited to Bitcoin. That's why it took ChatGPT only a couple fo months to get hundreds of millions of users. The exact same ChatGPT launched in the 1980s would have only 10,000 users (academics).
So, no, we are not so "early" for Bitcoin. Bitcoin use is progressing way too slowly, and that's worrying.
