"It would be a zero-sum ecosystem, except for the fact that miners have to pay their bills in dollars"

I've also been curious since the inception of Bitcoin. As the power plants don't accept cryptocurrencies, someone should pay the bill in cash, which inevitably means there will always be less money in the market than there needs to be. How does the cryptocurrency supporters explain this structure?




The only explanation I've heard is that once adoption occurs, you'd be able to pay directly. That's a big IF.
