Bitcoin is only 4 years old. Maybe it just takes a little longer to take over Visa in transaction volume? I really don't know what people like you expected.

If it proceeds to double in size every year then the numbers will stop being 'incredibly low' very soon.

The point is it isn't doubling every year. Averaged over 4 years it has but over the past 12 months it hasn't grown at all.
