Good luck with that. People only want to be onboarded after the price goes up!

Bitcoin will never work until people are using Bitcoin without realising they are using Bitcoin. If that doesn't happen soon enough, everyone will be using Gates666Coin instead. BTC has stolen many years of progress, makes you wonder who's side they are on

People need to know that they're using Bitcoin. Otherwise it's deception.
embed a paybutton in the NYT page so readers pay 10c/ article. they load a $5USD wallet via credit card and hit the button at will. under the hood is a BSV - stablecoin combo. do users "need to know that they're using Bitcoin"? -- i don't think so.
eventually, they will know.
Businesses can still use Bitcoin under the hood while selling their services for fiat to the outside world. Its not the clients concern how the business is achieving its deliverables.
Then the businesses are using bitcoin and know about it and the customers are not.
Yes, and that would be OK (though certainly not ideal). The business owes what it promises to customers, not the underlying tools it is using.
In my professional life, I sometimes sub-contract portions of the work to others. It isn't deception as long as its my responsibility to deliver at the end of the project.
It is if people hold bitcoin and aren't told what it is.
Yes, that would be deception. But, what I mean is, for example, if Twetch decided to directly sell interactions to fiat paying customers through some credit card payment gateway, then Twetch doesn't owe them Bitcoin, they owe them Likes and Branches.
What if the Bitcoin they are holding represents something worth much more than the value of the Bitcoin?
Not necessarily. Topping up a rail/bus pass card with fiat money, then every swipe at the gate is a bitcoin transaction. Its the gate system that uses bitcoin, not the user. Bitcoin can be used as a function outside of money until unity makes it money.
