If you hodl it for eternity, and don't spend it - what on God's green earth makes you think that other people will want to adopt it as a currency? If no one uses it to buy anything.
I think you misunderstood my post. I run a routing node and spend sats on the lightning network as much as is practical. I'm doing what I can to speed adoption, but I suspect it will still be a long process.

Have you heard about collateral? Use a small stack as collateral and you are fine. No one was spending Gold on a Gold-standard.

Exactly, to re-establish trust in paper-money IMO. A Bitcoin Standard, where everyone can verify if governments abuse their power.
