> What's Bitcoin missing in technological or infrastructure terms that's holding it back? I'd wager nothing.

The technological solution to the slight incomprehensibility is a huge part of what holds back adoption.

Also, regulatory issues are considerable for a certain class of user that would probably like to take advantage of e.g. 1000x gainz.

Sure, but the lure of '1000x gainz' (ie. high volatility) isn't useful to its uptake as a replacement for many types of transaction, and here in the UK/EU many countries have allowed (even if somewhat tenuously) some regulatory legroom, so all we're missing is... an app?

Yet...?

It's a solution wherein principally the currently-invested are the only stakeholders hungry for a problem to solve.
