IMO, the overarching issue is the vast majority of people have no issues with parting with a little private data so they can be a part of the mainstream financial system.
One of the major "pluses" of bitcoin is something that no one really cares about. In general, people just don't care about anonymity.

Unless you are dealing in illegal drugs or black market weapons. Just this week I ordered ammo. 500 rounds of 7.62X39. They asked me for a copy of my drivers license and guess what? I gave it to them. Know why? Because I'm not doing anything illegal.

this may be true to some extent, but PRIVACY is a huge issue, and bitcoin might be able to offer much more privacy for your financial transactions than traditional payment methods can.
