Have the other new payment methods got inspiration from Bitcoin? What does the bitcoin bring to the people who are not using it? I don't think this could inspire the ones to use Bitcoins. How could we find more effective way to make more people begin to use Bitcoin?
Have the other new payment methods got inspiration from Bitcoin?
I already explained it in the original post.
What does the bitcoin bring to the people who are not using it?
They get the benefit of NEW innovation and NEW payment methods being introduced to the consumers. Bitcoin created a competing technology, forcing the other financial institutions to adapt to this change. If they do not adapt, they will loose market share.
I don't think this could inspire the ones to use Bitcoins.
If these traditional banking institutions did not improve or change their technology or business models, people would have left and joined Bitcoin for the better features.
How could we find more effective way to make more people begin to use Bitcoin?
By being an example to others. If you brag about the improved features of Bitcoin, others will follow your example. Let's take the Greek situation.... Ask them this question... What will you do, if your government or banks block your access to your money in the bank, like they did in Greece? {Your solution : Use Bitcoin.. It's not centralized and only you have full control over your money... Nobody has your private key.. Or should I rather say... They should not have it.}
