I would say the negative stuff related to BTC... It's really bad for BTC i think.

I think no. People are matured enough to think that all sources can be used for negative stuff. Bitcoin is a currency so it's used and we have nothing to do about that query.

Don't know about that. I've heard a lot of people mixing things up, thinking btc = scams. It takes a lot of difusion to dilute this impression.

My big problem with btc is these unstable prices.
I believe it prevents a lot of people from using it.
My second problem is there is no much sites that accept btc as a payment processing. But this one will be solved by time and by more adopters for btc

My biggest problem maybe is that trusting a third party wallet is not worth because they can go down anytime and you can't do anything.

Like what wallet? Can you give some example. Are you referring to online wallet? Well honestly its really makes sense to trust them somehow. After all online wallets give an easier and light transaction when doing bitcoin transactions. Just don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Well yes you can try to access coinbase official website and see that it is down, a discussion is here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1305562

bitcoin has many problems that need to be overcome before the mass's will adopt, im forever getting laughed at by my friends, their favorite quote "you want me to put my money somewhere i have no control of it, like the ISP could cut me off, or the war could go nuclear and wipe out all the power grid"

im also running into SERIOUS issues amongst the community, seems people think it is acceptable to treat people as guilty until proven innocent WHICH IS BANG OUT OF ORDER, and likely the biggest reason the mass's will not adopt, not even for the entertainment factor, and why should they if they constantly have to prove their innocence, yes you lot may have allowed yourselves to be scammed, but treating new comers as scammers is a recipe for disaster and is counter intuitive where adoption is concerned, we are not changing society into what the idiots are attempting to lead it into. we are innocent until proven guilty and that will not be changing, if you believe anything different you are part of the problem and should hang yourself

we can do something about it but usually people just love waiting and do nothing
it will not happen in instant but if everyone will cooperate maybe things will change slowly

I hate all the people who use it for scamming. It is like bitcoin is made for scammers, instead of for us.
True it is caused by the fact that bitcoin is anonymous for the end-user, but there should come some party which monitor the market/scammers.

The wallet
It looks so outdated. For me to get more into bitcoin should need some wallet improvements.
Better filter options and graphical changes.

I am still concerned about security in online wallet by 3rd parties.

I am too. No matter how secure they say they are, I'm still questioning if it is in fact as legit as they say they are. I don't hold much online but still, it would still break my heart to lose whatever I've earned.

[Cyaren]

I really don't have any problems with BTC, except for the scammers.

[jaberwock]

Only the core and the blockchain.info can send transactions with multiple outputs.

A light wallet with such feature would be nice

Yes I don't also like Bitcoin's price volatility due to the fact that you could lose your investments quickly. This is a disadvantage but it also serves as an advantage since you could take advantage of price's instability (volatility) and make profit if you know how to do it well. Over the past weeks, I have been doing this and have made a decent amount of profit.

I also agree with you that there aren't much merchants accepting BTC but if you take a look, it is slowly gaining its adoption over time and I think it would take 5 to 10 years to see true mainstream adoption. (and a wealth of stores accepting it)

Transaction time & not much merchant in my country are the biggest problem.
I only use my bitcoins for online shopping since i couldn't find any merchant which accept bitcoin.

[blackmachinegun]

it looks like my problem also experienced by others
is the confirmation time, I had to wait more than 10 minutes to get one confirmation 
exactly what is happening ?

I agree with your statement to a limit that Bitcoin forum is filled with scammers but there are moderators who keeps an eye on it and kicks out the scammers and yes having a strong team to monitor the scammers will be good and it will help us to get rid of scammers.

This is a big problem for a lot of people here. They cant use it for outside shopping malls or other shops. Well, maybe someday, when they finally realized that it is a real money and they see that they can also profit just by bitcoin movements.

I would like to pay with Bitcoin in ordinary shops for goods and meal. This is a biggest problem I see now. But I am happy to see more and more merchants allow it.

I believe you can solve your big problem of bitcoin by ordering a bitcoin debit card, with the bitcoin debit card you can use it anywhere like in small hotel and grocery shops.
Bitcoin debit card more useful to break the barriers like only the online merchants accepting bitcoin.

Yeah I see some store now that puts something in their windows that bitcoin is accepted there. And it is kind of a good feeling whenever I saw that kind of sign. Maybe it is because I am a bitcoin family too.
