Why are people ignorant about cryptocurrencies in India?

[Transhuman32]

India is the international hub of IT developement with a huge number of young IT professionals.Yet awarness about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is lacking.I think 99.99% of the  population doesn't know anything about bitcoin.Bitcoin volume is really low.What do you guys think about the reason behind this ?Any Idea?

It is catching up .. but given a large percentage of our population lives below the poverty line and ministers say about INR 30 is enough for a day for people to eat and feel their families , what else did ya expect ?

Sure the better lot will buy.
