 We use it regularly as a form of digital cash by accepting it as a medium of exchange and regularly consolidating UTXOs onchain which pays fees to miners. Bitcoin is far more than digital gold. It’s programmable, perfect money. That makes it the ultimate store of value. Everyone will use the tool in their own way based on their needs. We use it for all 3 functions of money - store of value, medium of exchange and unit of account
