No I don't think so, Liquidity has nothing to do with adoption. Adoption is: Lightning, Liquid, ETF(flawed but still), cold storage, bitcoin merchants, Bitcoin beach, Bitcoin in africa, local bitcoin comunities, ES, Bitcoin mining countries, miners, Bitcoin jobs,.. Those are real metrics of adoption and liquidity comes after not before
