Title: Bitcoin users: Will bitcoin ever be used and fully adapted as a currency?
Post by: tmamin on June 14, 2015, 10:53:00 PM
Hey!

Does bitcoin have a promising future?

Or will government intervention and regulation restrict bitcoin to perform as we know it?

I’m currently completing research on the current use of bitcoin. What I hope to prophesise is bitcoin’s future as a currency by asking participants their views on the current competencies of bitcoin through a few questions via a 10 minute online questionnaire.

The UK government’s response to the increasing use of cryptocurrency (AKA digital currency), is a positive one as it ‘increases banking competition in the interests of all customers. Encouraging greater innovation in payments’ (HM Treasury, 2015).
The study will gather global perspectives to answer:
 Does bitcoin has the ability to be fully adapted and used in the economy compared to other payment systems? 
Do certain attributes of bitcoin (such as security, safe guards and lack of regulation) hinder its potential to be used as a payment system or as a facilitator of investment?

Please click the link below if you wish to complete the questionnaire:

Thank you!

Sorry i should have specified that these facts are from reports done in the past (consensuses etc)

also, a list of bitcoin merchants can be found at coinmap.org (which is quite inaccurate but is a nice list of your local bitcoin merchants)
