Title: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: Ritaaa on September 21, 2018, 01:11:54 AM As a Crypto enthusiastic for two years, there is something that still worries me when thinking about the future of bitcoin, and is his mass adoption, I see with concern that in my circle of friends that many people have already lost interest in bitcoin since the madness of last December. For us, bitcoin is the future of transactions, but I think many people are confused and thought its value is only superficial, without seeing the great potential it carries.
Now my question is, what could we do as individuals or company to promote mass adoption? In my case I have a webshop with several methods of payment in cryptos offering bitcoin-related merchandise, I am also planning to offer free webinars to help beginners interested in taking their first steps in this world, but what do you believe can be done to continue promoting the massive adoption of bitcoin? Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: khactan91 on September 21, 2018, 01:18:41 AM The idea of online shopping with bitcoin payment method is very well I am also thinking of developing as you. I think it will work because now the bitcoin community and electronic money are growing very strong. And maybe this is the electronic money revolution.

Looks like you have been in the Crypto world for a long time because you can already promote Bitcoin by giving free webinars, this method can socialize Bitcoin to people who do not know Bitcoin. But if I can advice, please have a seminar in each country so they can get closer to Bitcoin. with the seminar, I'm sure new investors will emerge.

Yeah, that is a good option but that would be expensive for now, maybe I can do webinars in different languages to come closer to your idea, thanks for sharing your thoughts!

For us, bitcoin is the future of transactions, but I think many people are confused and thought its value is only superficial, without seeing the great potential it carries. That is very true because many people around the world entered into this crypto world by thinking that the price of BTC will always go high and they all can become rich in no time. But they don't know how this market works so they all disappointed when it crashed and most of them may not come back to cryptos in their lifetime. These people should understand one basic thing that bitcoins are limited compared to world population so when bitcoins are started to use in the mainstream for most of the businesses then its price can still run up many folds. So they should take this downturn opportunity to buy some and hold.

If you are mostly a purchaser try to frequent shops who accept Bitcoin and always ask if they would consider it. Just getting to word out may be enough. Everyone like tax free transactions as well. We win and the government loses!! Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: xcajun21 on September 21, 2018, 01:59:42 AM I think some vendors could implement lightning network with the vending machine of choice, but that means that the venue already has high interest of educated people in using the payment systems. The merchandise is in the speed and reliability of the transaction, so that is what people actually hold, or at least would want to hold.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: KonstantinosM on September 21, 2018, 02:01:39 AM Yes, we may not have as many people as we did during the bull run, but we have more people than before it.
And the same thing will happen over and over again. Don't be disappointed, the good ones stay, that's what's important. The people who are chasing profits (but too dumb to actually get them) will hop on and off the bitcoin train. Good ones will step in with the rest. The bad ones will jump off and be left behind, only to climb back on when we've made the technology better.

So they should take this downturn opportunity to buy some and hold. Of course that is something that many do not understand, that sooner or later bitcoin is going up because of its limited supply, although I would not like those people just to get in because the price could go up when the supply ends, that would attract hodlers and money have to flow if we want to reach mass adoption, I think bitcoin has many attractive things that we could try to spread, for example, international transactions at a cost of $1 should be something extremely mesmerizing for most people.

I think one of the problems for most entrepreneurs is to get suppliers that accept cryptos, personally, I can pay my designers in cryptos because they are also receptive, but materials such as fabric or POP I usually have to pay in fiat. Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: franky1 on September 21, 2018, 02:26:11 AM self improvement lesson one bitcoin is not a person. it is code. it has no voice, no arms no legs. do not wait for bitcoin to provide you with shops that offer food for btc. if YOU want YOUR local store to sell food for btc, then YOU have to help convince YOUR store to accept btc bitcoin cannot phone YOUR local store, arrange an appointment, get on a plane to YOUR town and talk to YOUR local stores manager. its something YOU are going to have to be involved in. here are some tips. 1. organise a local meetup of like minded bitcoiners in your area. the more that turn up the better as it shows there is a demand for wanting local stores to sell things for btc. 2. find the confident ones that can talk about the benefits of bitcoin. 3. organise or research how that store can swap its BTC back to fiat or pay staff/suppliers in BTC. this might be as simple as one of the meetup members who wants to buy btc often just buy it off the store manager hand to hand. or just learning how to sign a store up to a payment/merchant service like bitpay/coinbase. then approach the store with the advantages, including demoing how easy it makes things Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: jhonvir666 on September 21, 2018, 02:59:20 AM I know that some of the storekeepers can carry out the fulfillment of a network of its choice such as a coffee by putting in money and pressing a button, chocolate, lottery or specially designed card is inserted into the machine like that. but this means that a place has a profound interest in professed people in the use of various payment systems. A commodities have the speed and confidentiality of its transactions, as it actually manages people, or does not want it to be handled.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: terrific on September 21, 2018, 03:04:32 AM Don't think about it, mass adoption would come eventually.
And let those folks that has no interest to bitcoin live their lives. With your plan of making a free webinar is great and a good initiative so I admire you on that part.

I think one of the problems for most entrepreneurs is to get suppliers that accept cryptos, personally, I can pay my designers in cryptos because they are also receptive, but materials such as fabric or POP I usually have to pay in fiat. I agree with your review, because currently the buying and selling transactions in the world are very fast and it is certain that when we use it to introduce bitcoin it will be very precise and quickly spread to everyone especially with a 10% discount there will be lots of people who are curious and interested. And if you are constrained by suppliers, is not the bitcoin that you can sell. Surely later, as the publication of your publication, suppliers will surely be interested and will follow your payment method because basically bitcoin can provide benefits.

For us, bitcoin is the future of transactions, but I think many people are confused and thought its value is only superficial, without seeing the great potential it carries. Bitcoin adoption by applying it to a webshop will not last long because the price cannot be stable for a long time, but if you are able to manage it and immediately convert it to fiat then I don't think it will matter. Because I subscribed to a large webshop in my country by using bitcoin, after I bought a lot of things there and then the cryptomarket crash, and then until now the webshop has closed. So I think as long as you can manage and / or run it properly, then it will be profitable, but if you don't have good management, I don't think that adoption will work well. So for individuals I think we just need to continue to use, hold, or transact with bitcoin, even though the crypto market is crashing, but there are still many people in my environment who still believe in bitcoin and crypto. So far I have not seen a big problem, because there are still many people who are convinced of the future of bitcoin and crypto.Now my question is, what could we do as individuals or company to promote mass adoption? In my case I have a webshop with several methods of payment in cryptos offering bitcoin-related merchandise, I am also planning to offer free webinars to help beginners interested in taking their first steps in this world, but what do you believe can be done to continue promoting the massive adoption of bitcoin? Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: avtonomro on September 21, 2018, 04:09:53 AM As you said, we need government approval before the mass adoption, but that is not the only needs. We also need people that understand what a blockchain is and how it can be useful for everyone. Until people haven't understand what is BTC and its potential, the mass adoption is really far.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: franky1 on September 21, 2018, 04:22:13 AM the government approves already.
by not disapproving!! we dont need regulations. regulations are for businesses to monitor, police and tell and limit what customers can do with their own funds. we dont need regulations we need consumer protections. which are penalties for businesses who wish to steal,, run off or pretend they were hacked. that way business owners cant easily retire with people funds. i really wish people learned the difference between regulations and consumer protections.. but here is a short lesson.. how much help did regulations ever do during the 2007-8 crises! banks were regulated but still screwed millions of people regulations are not a badge of trust. its a rusty sherrifs badge of authority that allows them to police normal people but allows them to be corrupt unpunished. and also get to do it because people WRONGLY think a sherrifs badge is a badge of honour Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: Binugon on September 21, 2018, 04:27:32 AM As a Crypto enthusiastic for two years, there is something that still worries me when thinking about the future of bitcoin, and is his mass adoption, I see with concern that in my circle of friends that many people have already lost interest in bitcoin since the madness of last December.

Your idea is a positive thing for the development of bitcoin, this should be done by many companies, and you also have to be diligent in promoting webshop and webiner, this will suck up new investors Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: mrcash02 on September 21, 2018, 04:53:21 AM Usually mass adoption only happens when the "lords of the world" start promoting it ostensibly. I believe to think it in large scale considering only individual efforts is a daydream. Businessmen (little, medium, big ones...) can adopt the currency and incentive their customers to adopt too and they may be successful on it, but it doesn't mean the mass adoption will happen.
The masses will come when the governments tell them to do this... And it will only happen when Crypto reach to a safe centralized stage. I don't think it's good, but that is how the masses work. Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: coinsycrip09 on September 21, 2018, 05:13:08 AM Don't think about it, mass adoption would come eventually. yeah, you are right.And let those folks that has no interest to bitcoin live their lives. With your plan of making a free webinar is great and a good initiative so I admire you on that part. just let it flow, they may not really understand the true bitcoin journey from the beginning until it has the highest price point. if they are wise they will take this is an opportunity to adopt it, and keep hold until the price grows back up.

For us, bitcoin is the future of transactions, but I think many people are confused and thought its value is only superficial, without seeing the great potential it carries. Actually, it's mass adaptation will guranteed takes more time because in our current time it's not fully enhance and well known by other people especially to the community where their country wasn't already legalizing it. However, the continuously existing of it and truly embracing and patronizing it by a huge of people makes the big impact to it to have it's mass adaptation in the near future. So let's give it much more time and for sure it will be much successful in the future.Now my question is, what could we do as individuals or company to promote mass adoption?

Your friends might not have been interested in the technology. They saw you making huge profits and they wanted to emulate that and now this is not happening, because the price is falling and as a result, people lose interest. We call these people speculators and their interest in Bitcoin is purely for profits. ::) You are an example of a true Bitcoiner. Someone who sees the real potential in this technology and someone who are actively involved in making it better. If I can suggest something. ??? If you want to grow Bitcoin adoption more, please give discount to people that are paying for things at your webshop/website. Other people who might want to pay with other payment options, could possibly be persuaded to use Bitcoin as a payment option, if the discounts were good. Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: 3kpk3 on September 21, 2018, 06:10:11 AM Usually mass adoption only happens when the "lords of the world" start promoting it ostensibly.

The masses will come when the governments tell them to do this... And it will only happen when Crypto reach to a safe centralized stage. I don't think it's good, but that is how the masses work. I agree. This is one of the best way to help cryptocurrencies go mainstream. Governments, celebrities and other big shots can easily help promote cryptocurrencies which could be mutually beneficial since they end up earning massive profits while cryptocurrencies rise in popularity thanks to their actions. Mass adoption of cryptocurrencies is truly difficult due to the extreme volatility of this market which is why this is one of the most effective ways overall as you stated.

This might not be the best way but it could be the most effective. Show them your results. You see, people easily get hyped when they see their friends improve financially. It's not going to solve mass adoption (immediately) but it will get them interested (which is the first step for mass adoption).

For us, bitcoin is the future of transactions, but I think many people are confused and thought its value is only superficial, without seeing the great potential it carries. This happens each time Bitcoin has a bubble. The market has a correction and value drops a lot, all the hype disappears, and the average folks lose interest. Then people start saying "Bitcoin is dead." Some recommended reading. (https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoinobituaries/) ;) A lot of people just buy in out of greed because the market is skyrocketing, not because they believe in the technology. That's just the nature of markets. Don't worry about it. Now my question is, what could we do as individuals or company to promote mass adoption? In my case I have a webshop with several methods of payment in cryptos offering bitcoin-related merchandise, I am also planning to offer free webinars to help beginners interested in taking their first steps in this world, but what do you believe can be done to continue promoting the massive adoption of bitcoin? Honestly, I don't even worry about it anymore. Mass adoption seems more or less inevitable to me. I'm just enjoying the ride. Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: PM.coins on September 21, 2018, 07:50:42 AM I see a good plan you are thinking about, a great strategy by promoting Bitcoin through online trading. I give a big round of applause for your idea. But you have to make initial capital and of course a large enough time to be able to convince your plan. I hope you will succeed and benefit many people.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: bitbunnny on September 21, 2018, 07:59:40 AM Value and implementation in real life is something that could activate mass adoption. End of the last year clearly shows what madness about Bitcoin was turned.
The truth is that the number of Bitcoin users has increasd but that is still far away from mass adoption. If you have in mind some statistics data that only about 2 millions people in the whole world are using Bitcoin then we can't actualy talk about mass adoption. Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: IamKnowledge on September 21, 2018, 08:03:50 AM For mass adoption of bitcoin, we must take it upon ourselves to educate the general public about cryptos in general and how good they are. We can take take advantage of the numerous social media platforms in order to make this dream a reality. Bitcoin need more people on board.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: Rahar02 on September 21, 2018, 05:58:29 PM I don't think bitcoin was intended to be adopted en masse, some flaws must be overcome especially in terms of transaction speed, but that's something that must be solved later.
Some good ideas around, want to propose it as well; >> here are some tips. 1. organise a local meetup of like minded bitcoiners in your area. the more that turn up the better as it shows there is a demand for wanting local stores to sell things for btc. 2. find the confident ones that can talk about the benefits of bitcoin. 3. organise or research how that store can swap its BTC back to fiat or pay staff/suppliers in BTC. this might be as simple as one of the meetup members who wants to buy btc often just buy it off the store manager hand to hand. or just learning how to sign a store up to a payment/merchant service like bitpay/coinbase. then approach the store with the advantages, including demoing how easy it makes things Nevertheless, bitcoin isn't relying on central authorities, but at least we need government to allows people to use bitcoin as a medium of exchange. In fact, many countries prohibit bitcoin used in buy and sell activities though, citizens can trade bitcoin but not use it in the daily transaction. But for the start, "local Bitcoin community" is a great idea, where people can gather and discuss about using bitcoin under the radar ;D, just between the enthusiast. Local store, retailers, shops in the city and then moving forward for the whole region of the country. Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: cizatext on September 21, 2018, 06:04:00 PM Well bitcoin most time don't need promotion but there is still little we can do to promote bitcoin such as social media campaign about bitcoin and the advantage it present to us, bitcoin is still at it early adoption and in the nearest future maney people even those that are speaking against bitcoin now will not have any reason not to adopt bitcoin as there secondary currency.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: nidacoinlove on September 21, 2018, 06:16:59 PM Last year basically people left the core function of Bitcoin while adopted it on secondary functions. Now you may think about the core function which is non other than easy and less time taking transaction. Instead of promoting it for the core purpose people started talking about it's price. Of course price is one of the character to praise it but not the only. We saw people who were not interested in blockchain technology but they were fond of earning profit through Bitcoin, which was a decision driven by greed. Therefore, we saw what happened to them and how they lost interest in Bitcoin. Till we don't adopt it for it's primary functions we will see people with a changing opinion. I think it is better to promote Bitcoin for the reason it was invented, stop promoting it like a commodity.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: bangkecol on September 21, 2018, 06:24:49 PM It is only natural that bitcoin has decreased, volatile trading in prices will definitely occur, and the price decline is also the impact of bitcoin being rejected from sec and others. In fact, if reviewed from the previous year, the price of bitcoin is still stable at the price of $ 6500, this is still stable in my opinion.
indirectly big players are also waiting for retailers to use sell panic to buy on a large scale. Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: daarul50 on September 21, 2018, 06:26:51 PM Sctually everyone is happy with the system implemented by bitcoin regarding payment methods. However, the problem why they don't adopt much to use this technology is recognition from each government regarding bitcoin so they still feel worried about using bitcoin as a daily payment method.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: Slow death on September 21, 2018, 06:39:26 PM As a Crypto enthusiastic for two years, there is something that still worries me when thinking about the future of bitcoin, and is his mass adoption, I see with concern that in my circle of friends that many people have already lost interest in bitcoin since the madness of last December. I saw some comments from people saying they do not believe that someday bitcoin will reach $ 18000 and that's why they were selling their bitcoin with losses. Well, this is expected when someone loses a lot. Now my question is, what could we do as individuals or company to promote mass adoption? give lecture and show that bitcoin can be used as a means of payments, people need to stop just concentrating on bitcoin as an investment and look at bitcoin as a means of payments In my case I have a webshop with several methods of payment in cryptos offering bitcoin-related merchandise, I am also planning to offer free webinars to help beginners interested in taking their first steps in this world, but what do you believe can be done to continue promoting the massive adoption of bitcoin? just keep doing what you're doing, the news channels are the main actors for us to have a mass adoption and then we have the governments Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: davhek on September 21, 2018, 06:46:11 PM As a Crypto enthusiastic for two years, there is something that still worries me when thinking about the future of bitcoin, and is his mass adoption, I see with concern that in my circle of friends that many people have already lost interest in bitcoin since the madness of last December.

Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: Ritaaa on September 21, 2018, 08:12:18 PM the government approves already. by not disapproving!! we dont need regulations. regulations are for businesses to monitor, police and tell and limit what customers can do with their own funds. we dont need regulations we need consumer protections. which are penalties for businesses who wish to steal,, run off or pretend they were hacked. that way business owners cant easily retire with people funds. i really wish people learned the difference between regulations and consumer protections.. but here is a short lesson.. how much help did regulations ever do during the 2007-8 crises! banks were regulated but still screwed millions of people regulations are not a badge of trust. its a rusty sherrifs badge of authority that allows them to police normal people but allows them to be corrupt unpunished. and also get to do it because people WRONGLY think a sherrifs badge is a badge of honour Yeah nice insight! going to use consumer protection from now on, that's a way better explanation for what we really want and need, gratz for the merit thro! haha could use some in my direction too haha :D ::) Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: jdeanne92 on September 21, 2018, 10:25:50 PM Though bitcoin have gained so much attention over the past years. We cannot simply persuade everyone to engage in bitcoin. First problem we have to face is the fact that a huge population of people doesnt have access to internet. In my case my circle of friends have been intrigue about bitcoin. They said, how could a virtual currency obtain such price. It is still a big challenge to us the lucky ones to relay what is bitcoin trying to do to our financial system.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: goaldigger on September 21, 2018, 10:41:13 PM I see many people confused on crypto specially bitcoin for this following reasons.
1. They stereotype bitcoin's meaning where its more focused on a hold-earn cycle rather than being a real currency. 2. People wanted to have earnings and not lost so after the bitcoin dump in December, they lack interest in it. 3. Lack of information also misleads them having no reliable source to inform them. 4. Lack of government support and nations ability to adopt.

Right.Even if bitcoin is not totally adopted by the people as of today,i know it will still continue to grow as long as its users continue to promote it.Yes through our social media campaigns about bitcoin,it will be bound for mass adoption in the future.

Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: osmo on September 25, 2018, 07:43:18 PM to be cured can start from yourself first by still using bitcoin, it is one way to promote bitcoin, blockchain has a great potential to continue to be developed, even though nowadays many people leave bitcoin and cryptocurrency because most of them interested in the price not with the technology
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: Nolan786 on September 29, 2018, 12:03:42 PM The end of last year clearly showed what crazy about Bitcoin was turning on. If you have in mind some statistical data that only about 2 million people around the world are using Bitcoin then we really can not talk about mass adoption. We can take advantage of the many social media platforms to make this dream come true. Well bitcoin most of the time does not need promotion but still very little we can do to promote bitcoin as social media campaign about bitcoin and the advantage it is present to us, bitcoin is still there early And in the near future those who are speaking against bitcoin now will not have any reason not to accept bitcoin as having secondary currency. Now you can think of the core functionality is not easy transaction and less time consuming. Of course the price is one of the characters to praise it but not the only one. So we saw what happened to them and how they lost interest in Bitcoin. I think it is better to promote Bitcoin for the reason it was invented, stop advertising it as a commodity.
Title: Re: Bitcoin and Mass adoption Post by: saddieberg on September 29, 2018, 12:26:39 PM As a Crypto enthusiastic for two years, there is something that still worries me when thinking about the future of bitcoin, and is his mass adoption, I see with concern that in my circle of friends that many people have already lost interest in bitcoin since the madness of last December. For us, bitcoin is the future of transactions, but I think many people are confused and thought its value is only superficial, without seeing the great potential it carries. Now my question is, what could we do as individuals or company to promote mass adoption? In my case I have a webshop with several methods of payment in cryptos offering bitcoin-related merchandise, I am also planning to offer free webinars to help beginners interested in taking their first steps in this world, but what do you believe can be done to continue promoting the massive adoption of bitcoin? First of all, it's all about payment options - as you mentioned. Also, many people experience difficulties trying to figure out how it all works - starting from creating a wallet to buying crypto. In our neighbourhood, there are plenty of ATMs where you can buy bitcoins and their interface is much more user-friendly than on exchange platforms' websites. |
