Yep, and the best way to get that to occur is to help show people why they should be transacting with it. Take businesses, for example. Normal credit card transaction fees are 3%. Normal Monero transactions are 1 US penny. If you get a transaction that is 3 cents US, that's an expensive transaction.

Yup, and some online stores give a 5-10% discount for using Monero.
