[ mass adoption ] will NEVER happen if the network doesn't scale efficiently.
One must wonder whether mass adoption will ever happen. The block size limit has not been an obstacle so far, yet adoption does not seem to be exactly exploding. (The block size limit might be an obstacle within a year, if the traffic keeps growing at the recent rate.)
Internet adoption didn't dramatically accelerate until the World Wide Web. Bitcoin is still looking for that "killer app". There are many potential candidates, but what will take off is probably something we haven't even thought of yet.
Heh, so you're a "killer app" troll too

Consider that Bitcoin adoption is not merely about adding users but attracting capital. Bitcoin as it exists can accommodate an infinite amount of capital. There is no "scaling" problem in that regard.
Now what you are concerned with "transaction scaling" is a different set of problem. One that is often correlated to the growth of the network but any perspicacious onlooker will have noticed there is something missing from this theory.
You have misconception about Bitcoin's utility value and you need to address it before coming forward with more arguments!
I know what Bitcoin's utility value to me is, but nobody has the whole picture. What are you implying is the "real" utility value? Yes, we absolutely need to attract new capital. How do you think we're gonna do it?
