Im from Australia!
BTC has become popular over the years and many people use it for online shopping and gambling.
But thats about it.
Yeah, Bud, that would be my observation about my city here in the USA. There is only ONE BTC ATM here. And few shopping options. Once more merchants take BTC, then NICE THINGS start to happen... providentmetals.com is my favorite place to spend BTC. Be lucky that you have at least one BTC ATM. In my country there is absolutely none! We had a few in the past but they all had been shut down.Bureaucrazy!

I haven't seen or meet any people in my country physically who know about bitcoin. There are some of my friends online among them some knows and accept bitcoin. In country like mine (Nepal) even paypal is not accepted and online payment gateway are also not quite popular so paper cash are only currency people use over here. But i am doing my part telling my family members actually what is bitcoin and how i am spending them online. They only get interested with the price hike rather than other things.

Definitely, even my friends don't give a fuck on what bitcoin is. I think bitcoin is getting known on our country, but so far in a negative way. Examples are medias making articles regarding criminals that uses bitcoin and those who were involved in MMM ponzi shit that just used bitcoin to invest on the said shit. I am also hoping to see one day bitcoin will be shown on national tv in a positive way

I follow pretty closely anything that happens in my country but right now we are stuck still at calling Mark Karpeles the CEO of Bitcoin and journalist think Mt Gox hacked = Bitcoin hacked... stuff like that. It shows how beneath of the curve they are (yes im living in japan atm).

The MSM demonization is really bad. If there is no bitcoin community in 1 country, and one watches international news, it can stunt the growth of BTC in that country. The media is just ruthless with bitcoin.

The reason is, the media is just a servant of the governments, the governments are just a servant of the financial industry. And the financial industry do not have any interest that Bitcoins or cryptocurrencies in common get any attention.

It shows how beneath of the curve they are (yes im living in japan atm).

I'm from Serbia. Around me there is no one that even heard about bitcoin, I'm trying to talk with people about it but they are very suspicious, there is couple friends interested in all this but not enough to get more involved. In my country that is normal, we are like 20 years behind the world.

I'm from India. People here generally prefer making payments using cash, it's a very liquid society and mostly prefer using debit cards to make payments at large supermarkets. Use of virtual currencies and virtual means of payments is usually low and preferred by those who have internet connectivity and good knowledge of how to use it. Despite this it's nice to see that facilities like net banking are increasingly rising and user preference for it is also hiking. I'd love to see online as well as brick and mortar merchants accept Bitcoins for daily payments, but I'm expecting this to taking a lot of years to evolve.

In the US its still pretty open but it is tough to tell. I think it is going to start being taxed and that might be a problem for me in the long run.

I will not say from what country but I can say one thing. The number of people who have heard or Bitcoins are one of the highest in the country. The authorities did not pay attention to Bitcoin.
