Bitcoin May Not Survive a Bitcoin Standard

"While Bitcoin can control the number of users inside the network, it has no control over the number of users accessing the network through custodial banks. The growth of this banking layer is outside of the protocol’s control and could grow into a systemic risk for Bitcoin." - Hasu

Cash may serve a far more important role than merely a means of payment.
