Bitcoin is not completely implemented in every country and due to very low transaction fee many people are using for illegal activities, The price of bitcoin is also not stable.
Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

I'm sure that the biggest disadvantage of bitcoin is that its price is unstable and it is used as a means of earning on the stock exchange! Due to sufficiently low capitalization, the price can easily change in the right direction!

I agree that bitcoin is not totally implemented and accepted in all countries. There are only few countries who are already using bitcoin in their transactions. And not all people or government are willing to use bitcoin, they have so many questions that needed to be answered. And also bitcoin can be hacked easily by those people who know how to hack because it is sensitive and can easily be hacked.

The main disadvantage for bitcoin is that there are many countries where bitcoin is not accepted and there is no single store where bitcoin is accepted as a payment method. So people face problems while spending bitcoins or they do not use bitcoins to buy things they use everyday because there are no stores available to receive payments via bitcoin. Transaction costs have not been a problem before, but now they have risen to a very high level, it has become a disadvantage for bitcoin because it makes people think twice about issuing so much cost just for their transactions to be prioritized.

I think one of the biggest disadvantages of bitcoin is the volatility of its price. Bitcoin prices are very volatile and increases/decreases at a very high pace. Speculators wish to take advantage of it but genuine investors thinks of it as too risky and therefore all the investors does not invest in Bitcoins.

I don't think something as the disadvantages of bitcoin or blockchain technology. People without experiencing the goodness indicate it as an failed technology but in reality everyone are in much temptation to implement blockchain technology into their working sectors. It is true that future technology development will grow with blockchain as the base.

there are number of things to think about.

The fact that nobody can control it.
The instability of the price.
The inability to charge crazy bank like fees for using it.
The fact that it is almost anonymous.
It wasn't created by 'them'.
Still a new technology, unproven.
Has received a lot of negativity, bad press & illegal happenings.

These are just a few that come to mind right now.

As theres a lot of news that we can see and hear about bitcoin especially in Television, Radio, Newspaper, Social Media and also the talking of people about bitcoin, almost everyone knows about bitcoin.
But even so, those people who got accustomed to the classic or traditional ways or for those who live in the remote area that they much prefer to use flat currency rather than bitcoin, we cant force them.
I think its the countries problem if they cant provide a better technology or network which would have help those people to use and access it bitcoins.
