Why do you think bitcoin will only ever be a store of value? I see people using bitcoin for payment more and more now, especially thanks to lightning. I pay for some services in bitcoin and I see more of them every year, although still very few.

Moreover, I am a developer with a couple of products that I am starting to convert to bitcoin standard and accept payments in bitcoin. I do it because it is actually more convenient to accept and pay in bitcoin than in fiat, and secondly it allows me to accept payments globally. I can't use USD because of geo-restrictions.

And the best part: no commissions and full control over the money you earn.

So accepting payments in bitcoin for me is becoming not just something pleasant, it is becoming a necessity.
