What about cyber cafe's?
Most of the owner of cyber cafe dont know about bitcoins...if we can convince them about bitcoins then the popularity of bitcoins can be doubled..what's ur opinion?

they most likely think of it as revenue from a bitcoin greater than the income of warnet so they are less sure, that bitcoin income is better than the warnet
 I also have a warnet  but I prefer my onlien work in bitcoin. because bitcoin is very promising in everybody to get good results from the bitcoin .. though can make a bright future
let alone you by trading by way of investment, it is very easy to get the results every day even every time

Absolutely true. Working online with bitcoin isn't a bad idea. My neighbors keep asking me about this job and how to earn bitcoin. They also have family to feed so they are the ones who get interested in it. I spread bitcoin if the person is willing to help himself/herself with determination. I won't spread info of bitcoin if the person is not willing to give their time listening and asking about bitcoin. I wanna see how hungry they are about bitcoin and by the time they are eager enough,I spread semi-detail information about bitcoin and the rest will be history.

A product of value does not need an appeal to convince people to be part  of it, that is the way I feel about Bitcoin,it's value does not require an appeal to convince any one to be part of  it, the world present move is the cryptocurrency  world.
When I saw how the life of a friend change financiallly, I did not require any appeal from hime to be part of the gold mine of this age.

I think in current time trading and investment in bitcoin is the best place to earn money, In fact bitcoin is providing opportunities to people to make more money. I think a lot of people are already earning a good amount of money from bitcoin investment, Those people who have invested money in bitcoin about 2 years ago they are now millionaire and still continue to make more and more.

there are still cyber cafes all over the world? there were like more than 10 in my city a few years ago, and now there is only one, but there is not even 2 people joining and using pc's during the day, the poor guy who is on the  hall of the cyber cafe is so lonely, nobody enters to cyber cafes anymore, because 9 of 10 people now has a computer on their own houses.
So i dont think it is a good idea, there are better ones, that requires more people but are more efficient, like promoting among the streets.

Unfortunately there is no crypto caffee in my country.

There are not much of them on other countries. Plus if they are computer savvy then it wont be a problem. They may have bumped with bitcoin already.
How did you know that they dont know about bitcoin? Have you done a survey or something?

I admire your intention of making Bitcoin really get popular especially with merchants so they would be accepting Bitcoin as one of the many mode of payments available in their shops. Yes, it is a good idea so the next time around you are in a cafe try to talk to the owner or manager and suggest that they take Bitcoin just like the many merchants who already did. And since a cafe can be a high traffic location, the exposure for Bitcoin is enhanced. Then sooner or later Bitcoin would really be going mainstream.

And when it is already mainstream, we would have people like Jamie Dimon who will issue so many warnings that Bitcoin is about to defraud people and is about to pop just like a balloon full of nothing but air. Countries all around the world that are not in love with Bitcoin would then issue advisory for their citizens not to get involved with the biggest scam of all time while many people are already smiling and even laughing because they are experiencing the great life brought on by Bitcoin.

What an idea! What a life!

For the moment there I though you would be spreading bitcoin really. Bitcoin information drive you mean? Yes, spreading info about information in cybercafe would increase awareness to users because that will the place where people can easily relate to bitcoin.

Here the same. Before there were several cyber-cafes, but when people started buying laptops the number of customers decreased. But at least here there is something new happening: The new games are very heavy for the laptops most people have, so they need to play at cyber-cafes with friends and enjoy the experience with nice graphics. The hourly price is very cheap and I think it would be interesting for cyber-cafes owners on long term if they keep the profit in BTCs.

Also, it's a good way to spread Bitcoin among more people, the technology enthusiasts, especially young gamers.

Here this is really a good topic that I found , but I think the owners of the cyber cafe are happy with their earnings in the offline shop by providing the online ways for the people .
Here one of my friend owns a cyber cafe then I explained him about the cpu miner for the altcoins to mine , after that he agreed with me and I setup cpu miner software in his 20 pc for the mining of  DOTA coin and monthly he was making about 400$ free of cost .
After that he started serious work in this field and now today he is a big earner in bitcoin , so here in my opinion a lack of education about the bitcoin is happening in this present time , so may be a new change we will see in the future where every online thing will be joined with the bitcoin and bitcoin only .

Maybe they already know about bitcoin and its benefits, but they don't spread that information to people and employees. And they could have set up a cyber cafe business long before there was bitcoin, so the owner let the business run as usual even if it didn't give you more profit.
Thus, I think it's not a problem for those who still want to run the business.

It can be a good idea,  but I think the best way is to introduce it to big investors,  when big and  trusted investors join,  there will be  a lot of people follow to invest,  in cyber cafe there is only limited person that will join but it will be easier to explained and higher chances that they will be interested,  bitcoin need to be introduce in every sector,  so any place is good to introduce bitcoin

I believe that spreading bitcoin in our system is a grrat idea. It will help the market go boom. Why? Because of the demands of bitcoin.

What specifically made you think to target the cyber Cafe owners? If you want to run a awareness of Bitcoin then why not everyone is made aware of bitcoin and convinced to use them. Cyber Cafe owners aren't really going to care about bitcoin unless then are tech enthusiasts, likely they will be, even then instead of investing in btc they would rather invest in making their cyber Cafe better.

I think it more to spreading bitcoin by teaching to other in order to have learning you have to show the history of bitcoin and it good future if ever bitcoin is commercialize it will think easily to spread.

Yes afcourse, spreading Bitcoin is beneficial for Bitcoin as well as for us. Because popularity increase the earnings also and if we remember our past then someone also told us about Bitcoin they help us to boost our earnings so we also have to help others and it's good to spread Bitcoin and help others

I can actually Share the Idea of earning Fiat through Bitcoin.
My Classmates are always asking, where Do i get my Money, so I answer Them Through Research of Online Jobs, They are to Fond of Playing games and spending Money, But me, while using PC in other cafes I'm always earning.

If ever, there is A person who wants to learn eagerly, then I will Teach Him how to earn Bitcoins. but not the way of Spoon Feeding.

Great idea if you ask me! Unsure why they haven't taken it on already!

That's the way things go, right now they have the things and tools needed in earning but all they did is just play online games that may even spend their money instead of earning it, particularly generations now a days are too lazy just thinking on ways they can earn and would just like spending playing time consuming games.

Due to the developments of bitcoin (the price) and also increasingly known by many people that had close to the internet, I am sure over time will more cyber cafe's owners who will knowing what is bitcoin till would knowing how to earn it. Because people who are not far from the Internet, tend to be quicker to recognize what bitcoin is and how can to be profitable than people who are away from the internet.

 what if they take this advantage and install key loggers and loot the poor people who are new to bitcoins and block chain technology... so every coin has both sides to remember... good and the bad side too ::) :o

Yes, it could help to make Bitcoin more popular, beside, if the owner of computer cafe or anyone who became open minded and embrace Bitcoin. They will do the same thing, and they will initiate to advertise about Bitcoin.

In my side of the world, cyber cafe's are dead thanks to the mass adoption of smart phones and not so cheap internet. Only use for cybercafe now is for photocopying and printing, so I do not see how convincing them, if it were my side of the world, will increase the popularity of bitcoins.

Well definitely worth a try. As we all know that cyber café is still a booming industry and if a owner can accept bitcoin as payment then its another step for gaining wider acceptance. At least their customers who haven't heard of bitcoin before will because curious as what that big "B" symbol is on the shop. And later if the owner can explain to everyone what it is and maybe answer a few questions and how can they pay with bitcoin, then is gonna be a big plus for us. And maybe in the next month their will be thriving bitcoin community and they are all meeting and discussing bitcoin in that shop. So its a situation wherein both the owner and the customer benefited. Doesn't sound bad at all.

yeah that's a good idea that if the cyber cafe know about the bitcoin it surely the bitcoin will become recognizable but we need to think that the other country will not legal the bitcoin so we need to be critical thinking in that kind of things. maybe it will good to the games too. it will be good that the bitcoin will make a payment for the online games because many of people was a gamer.right?

no they can't loot dude. because as i know now adays lot of cyber cafe has a deep sleep installed on their pc's which all of the dowloaded files or users account and password of recent user will be gone if they turned off the computer . So it impossible to loots lol .well deep sleep is effective to avoid stupid people .must have it if you worrying about that issue.

That would be a great idea for spreading out Bitcoin whole around the community. but nowadays, Cyber cafe is getting shut down in our country because of the easy access to the Internet. whatever the case. The cyber cafe could play an important role in promoting Bitcoin across the around the world. we know that the more people will come to this platform the more bigger this system.

Building a cyber cafe's where most of the people are going into everyday because of the use of technology and internet that they need to finish their works easily. Spreading bitcoin can be any form of strategy and even if you will just post something in social media then it will help other people to know bitcoin and i think it is a bit hassle for convincing the cyber cafe owners to know bitcoin or to use it because some of the people in the world are close minded while posting in social media will become easy and less hassle and also public to the majority of the netizens.

Providing info about Bitcoin to cyber cafe will lead Bitcoin to a higher level than ever , as all the social media servers are connected to it and millions of people do work using them ,  as the shop owners of cafe's would also have a lot of profit using them

Cyber cafes? Are those still around? Anyways, bitcoin is the type of product that HAS to sell itself.

That's one of the good idea about spreading the news about bitcoin and encourage the to invest and support this coin, well most likely we can also suggest free seminars and conference about the crypto for students in college's specially for the computer related courses as they can adapt and relate to the topic that can discuss by the speaker, that's one effective way to encourage people most the millennials about the btc.

Is there any way to start earning bitcoin without investment...so that we can suggest others?

Those are good ideas and ideas. If the cyber cafe's visitors are taught bitcoin and its benefits and convinced they will soon learn bitcoin and join in bitcoin. It will have an impact on the rapid spread of bitcoin, and that's good for bitcoin advancement.

so true. I agree with you. but as we know, education about bitcoin is minimal. first we have to introduce them what bitcoin is. maybe that way it can be effective.

I doubt it that most of the cyber cafe owners don't know about bitcoin. I have read some experiences them who are owning their own cyber cafes and what's the twist about it? They are using their own clients (PC's) when there are no customer for mining of alt coin. Some are doing the web browser mining so they can take the advantage of it but it's not that right because their customers can't maximize their paid rent for it.

yes ,, I agree with you ,, very loss if cafe owners do not know bitcoin ,, whereas they should know better bitcoin ,, I think this is proof that bitcoin does not belong to a group, certain individuals but everyone ,,! !
I strongly agree if we recruit them (who own the cafe) to join  in bitcoin and then help bitcoiner to spread.

it can be done if we are often to use their service and they know us and what we are doing in their cyber cafe. but if we only use their service in once a week then its no use and its better to spreading bitcoin in other places. i am sure that there is more people interesting with bitcoin and we should tell them and we need to do the best that we can to spread bitcoin.

Not a terrible idea, but be careful about the way you go about educating people about it. I know you have the best intentions but some people might think you're trying to sell a scam or something.

You just shouldn't force people anything, make flyers about bitcoin and just scatter them around or around bigger people  gatherings. Also, when something get's this big, people will eventually hear about it and when they see that it is a huge thing, they'd be drawn in more than anytime.

For me the best way to make bitcoin even more popular is through popular social media site such as facebook and twitter. Word of mouth seems to work as well in spreading knowledge about bitcoin. These means might not convince the skeptics but they will surely talk about it with their friends; hence spreading knowledge on bitcoin.

But I think that can be done with individual efforts only, meaning you can only share knowledge about bitcoin to cafe owners near you and same goes for everyone else. Because there is no cyber cafe union or firm where you can present or advertise bitcoin that all of them can see.
But a question would be: What would be your selling pitch? I mean what do you want cafe owners to do with bitcoin? Accept bitcoin as payment?

It's a good idea to spread the knowledge about bitcoin through cafes.But the fact is now a days most of them have their own systems and internet connections'so majority people are not going to depend cafes.I have an another idea '' CAN WE GIVE AN ADVERTISEMENT IN ALL NEWS PAPERS AND ALL KIND OF MEDIA INCLUDING SOCIAL MEDIA ''.

you reveal a very brilliant idea, most internet cafe where many even do not know about bitcoin, because I see see cafe users only focus on online game, if we give understanding about bitcoin to the owner and user of cafe is very good for bitcoin development, and we have to make sure that bitcoin income is bigger than the cafe he owns, we have to show the results to them first, to make it easier to convince them.

It maybe a good idea but the owner of the cyber cafe need to adjust and make improvement in their store in order to aware those people who are continuing using their service so that they can encouraged them to use bitcoin and spread it to others.

Bitcoin for the most part spreads as people learn about it, but it's not very clear on whose money you are offering to advertise.

I think it's a good idea to spread bitcoin in every cybercafe, but do they believe that bitcoin will be done after I deploy bitcoin in every internet cafe there are some internet cafes in my city after I browse to spread bitcoin, but there are some people who work in cybercafe to learn their bitcoin and want to find extra work to supplement their income and there are some people who ignore bitcoin because they simply do not believe that bitcoin can be profitable or make money and they are very busy with them. work.

bitcoin is spreading day by day because easy to use and earn even some started mining it which make them huge profits that sufficient reason to think and accept it which spread more fast in our nearby people as they also kin to make profits from bitcoin. its good to be part of bitcoin growth journey   

Spreading Bitcoin in my opinion is very good if we spread because more and more are using bitcoin higher bitcoin prices.,

of course if the whole world is using bitcoin it will happen any transaction can use bitcoin ...

Internet cafes are a gathering place for Internet addicts, but no one knows about bitcoin. they just play spending money but they do not want to find out how to earn money from the internet, I think a good idea to give science bitcoin in the cafe, maybe many are curious and try. this step can also reduce the unemployment rate

I guess educating cyber cafe owner about bitcoin is a good idea.  Besides, if they post anything that promotes about bitcoin in their cafe, more people will be curious and ask about it and how does it work.  Then their curiosity will become a stepping stone to search more about bitcoin then the probability of engaging in bitcoin will follows.  Then it is possible that its popularity will be doubled.

I don't think it's appropriate to promote it there. The most potential targets should be those students. These people will be loyal customers for decades after they accept it.

it is a simple thing that everyone can do but is likely to succeed by popularizing bitcoin on social media in order to attract the attention of many people to come to use it. another way we can do offline business venture like a coffee shop but can receive payment using bitcoin so that people who visit our coffee shop can make people curious how to use bitcoin and they can see bitcoin can be very valuable to use.

In my country this business is a thing of the past. I can't even tell is there is a cafe now. This business was popular when the Internet was expensive and coverage was insufficient. It seems to me that bitcoin will only come alive when it is used in all online stores. Users this will not solve the problem. You need to create attractive conditions for this but it depends on miners and developers.

In my opinion we dont realy need to convence people to do bitcoin hunting its so obvius that social media like facebook and twitter has a biggest part and also youtube this social media has big opportunity to convence people alredy

Yes, we can Inform and Educate the Owners about Bitcoin. but to convince them might be hard to do.since they have their own business to take care of. Bitcoin can be Popular if there's a good Marketing Strategy. to convince them, you need them to believe in every little thing you say. and you have to answer all their questions. if that will happen, then not only the owners will be interested but the players too. Bitcoin can be popular in no time.

In my country most of the cyber cafes know what BTC , actually steam accepts BTC , many people buy skins and games using btc on steam .
So the owners do know about BTC.
 
In my personal veiws we should spread knowledge about BTC to the young  ones who are the future of this world and would be controlling it in near future.we can socialize BTC by convincing people on social media , we can tell them about the advantages of using btc and it's dual nature as a currency and as an asset.
The more people would come to know about BTC , the more closer we go towards global acceptance.

I dont think if its sure that the cyber cafe allowed it. The goal of cyber cafe is to earn and be popular in one place in their cafe.they don't think about hte other things unlike bitcoin. But maybe if bitcoin is intro to them and depends on the rules and regulatiom then maybe they accept it. But its more become popular to bitcoin if in online games the bitcoin is make payment for the online

Best way to go about it is the make a chart showing them how much they could have profited if they accepted payments at a particular time. Sort of like Assange coming out thanking PayPal for shutting down WikiLeaks PayPal accounts, that forced them to accept Bitcoin and now they're sitting on a 50000% profit.

Nothing can beat that!

You are right there are a lot of people that they can take you on wrong way but I think if someone is a user of bitcoin so it’s easy for him to convenes some easily because what bitcoin is giving to us it’s amazing it can change a life of a common man so we need to give example of us first that what was we first before bitcoin and now where are we after joining bitcoin.

Among my friends there are many who do not trust bitcoin. But I'm not trying to prove to them that bitcoin is a gold mine. I'm waiting quietly. I know that soon they will come to me and will ask me to tell them about the crypto currency

This is the best way actually , teaching people who are in need and who wants to learn . I have taught many people about BTC and they are using it for their advantage :) Mouth to mouth promotion is the best type of promotion.

agree with what you say, working online is not a bad idea and even a job that can make money is very difficult if someone is not focused to learn and if they are determined to be able to produce bitcoin maybe they will get excited and i am happy with what i already share knowledge about bitcoin to others so bitcoin will be increasingly popular among people who do not know about bitcoin

Your idea was good if it's a years ago when the internet shops or cyber cafe's we're in the peak of business but right now there's a lot of people who owns now a personal computer and most of the people are now just using smartphones.

If i'm going to spread bitcoin, I will just use social media. Why? Because most of the people are now using smartphones where in they can easily access to the social media and one good thing about social media is that it's world wide anyone can see your posts (regarding bitcoin).

not sure, if we can convince the cafe, what about the cafe users?? most internet cafe users focus on online games, and online games make someone lazy to learn and read an article. unless the cafe owner obliges users to pay with bitcoin, or free bitcoin every few times using the cafe

It's True man  :) and i agree with you.If cyber cafe's are convinced by us, then we can really make bitcoins popular by sharing it to many people who are really searching for opportunities to make money by online mode. And to be honest it's not a bad idea to make money online and people are really looking for it.Even i would love to share about bitcoins and crypto trading if the opponent person is interested and determined enough to make money while giving his best efforts. We should give it a try and convince those cyber cafe's, and it is practical idea to go for it  ;) .

Now that seems to be right. The only people that will be eager to learn and use bitcoin are the ones who actually need it more than any average employee, more or less they needed the income badly.
The determination will be high and learning will make them knowledgeable on what are the further advantages of bitcoin.
Yes promotion by mouth is indeed effective than any technique. It will give them enough perception and clearer information about a topic. Or they can even ask questions.

I don't think that it will double its popularity if all cybercafes accept Bitcoin as a mode of payment. They are just customers and their target are mostly people who are college students. A mode of payments does not make them aware of something it is just that people who know may opt out to pay in that kind of mode. Cybercafes even though they are many are still a small part to influence everyone to make the popularity of Bitcoin double.

Why would you think about those cafes if you can start spreading it within your family? Here is a piece of advice, this coming holidays instead of buying gifts for your family, why don't you give them bitcoins and let them figure out where to spend it. That's the best way to spread the knowledge and bitcoin itself. Give them at least 0.002BTCs.  ;D

I think cyber cafes are probably on the decline since pretty much everyone has access to the internet in some form on their phone or at home, maybe I am wrong but in my country they have all but disappeared, maybe in some poorer countries they may be more prevalent.

In terms of cyber cafes / internet cafes accepting bitcoin and pushing the price up x 2 this is unlikely, it would take a lot more adoption to push the price that far but for the cafes to accept bitcoin this is reasonable.
