You clearly haven't studied all the up and coming BIPs. You are also mentally retarded to judge software at 0.11 beta version (which has already shaken the world, let alone when sidechains get deployed, then find the nearest rope if you aren't in) instead of seeing what's in the works and having tunnel vision.
>terrible energy efficiencyWrong as fuck. How much energy do Visa, Mastercard, Banks etc, waste to keep their services running? Do the math.
>absurdly long confirmation timesNot a fucking problem. I don't see people complaining that credit card transactions take 180 days to confirm.
A Bitcoin transaction never disappears. You never lose the money. If you want a faster transaction, send a higher fee and it will be a matter of minutes (the fee will be a ton of times cheaper than the average Western Union scam)
>zero practical utility for 95% of peopleYou don't understand the technology. To begin with, the actual coins don't even need to reach that much of an usage within the average idiot, it's the disruption in the infraestructures that will make the average joe use Bitcoin when they aren't even realizing they are using it (just like no one knows they are using TCP/IP unless you are a computer geek). Nonetheless, there will be a big market of people that don't want to leave their money inside banks anymore (or a part of it).
There will be an insane amount of new ideas throught sidechains.
You will go down in history as idiots of this caliber:
>I think there is a world market for maybe five computers'>Thomas Watson, president of IBM, 1943.Of course you will not tho. You will just be another assblasted anonymous boat misser.
Nicely coped tho.
