BITCOIN IS STILL FAMOUS

[Raimonn]

I think that Bitcoin is starting its carrer to be famous, before it was on news for bad practices, scandals, ... Now its on news for its potencial to became the more secure payment system, for its aproval on EU regultion. We have to look that only a small part of the people knows bitcoin and uses it, there is a lot of people that didn't know about it. Bitcoin has a big growing potencial.

[Betwrong]

not "still" but "always"
trust me!

I agree. I'd say Genghis Khan is still famous, but Bitcoion - no, it is not even famous yet to that extent we all wish it to be. BTC will always be famous and it's just starting now.

[NorrisK]

Famous is a big word. Known by a certain elite is a better word imo.

Famous implicates that the majority of people know about it, but it still seems that the majority does not want to know at the moment and are in denial.

bitcoin still be a primary crypto because most other crypto / altcoin still using bitcoin for change to fiat money 

[MyBTT]

I didn't get a clue bitcoin is still famous. Bitcoin's price strongly fluctuates. Many ppl avoids adopting bitcoin.

[knowhow]

Bitcoin has became a investment option to who plays those market,soo bitcoin still atract new investors ,and yes bitcoin will get more value as more people knows about it,and they will know when financial problems reach them .

people around the world are the one that have the power to stop the fluctuation, if only they would use bitcoin more and by doing this increasing the price indirectly

it's only their fault if they do not have a stable bitcoin

[ajareselde]

Bitcoin is still far away from being famous, as we only have a tiny portion of potential market interested, and still have solid prices and support.
If/when we get to stage of worldwide "fame" as you say, we will be talking in xyz k$ per bitcoin, that's how you'll recognize it when it comes.

[HeroCat]

Yes, Bitcoin is still very popular and of course the first crypto coin 

[Snorek]

So basically you are saying that Price Spike of 2013 helped bitcoin to rose to prominence as the most known concurrency.
It is nothing unusual about that, after all price of coin is the main characteristic of it, there might be technically better coin, but it is price that matters.

[Shinpako09]

Of course bitcoin is still famous and its becoming popular day by day although the price isn't stable. Especially maybe if the price go high up to $1000 again.

[Corealz]

Bitcoin is still getting more and more popular every day but there is still a mix of good and bad news in the mainstream.

[diodio1]

Although many ppl hear about bitcoin. But they are still dumb not to use it. IMO we need some kind of triggers for them to adopt bitcoin, which should offer the average Joe really good use base. 

[Slark]

Bitcoin is still getting more and more popular every day but there is still a mix of good and bad news in the mainstream.

So, please ask some of your friends about bitcoin. I am sure that 90% of them have no idea what 'internet of money' aka bitcoin is.
That is unless you told them BTC yourself. We have a really long way to come, not enough promotion is painful for bitcoin.

During from past two years when bitcoin stepped in,Every body takes it lightly but i personally dont know that how it get so high on USD then how it conquered the transactions of banking,there was also a time when 1 BTC was = to 1100$ which also led myself toward this entity crazily,Bitcoin was like catastrophe in transaction sector or what can i say it a 'Currency sector' then we see also a big drop in the price of Bitcoin from 1100$ to 300$ .It boomed suddenly ,Every body head was down thinking that they had lost something because some peoples had transferred there currency in bitcoins because of Current Good situation also and of the value of the 1100.
Still today those people aren't in a big loss because bitcoin is much more valuable still today ,i know it is not much then before it was used to,but i have to admit it that with that big fall ,
btc is still famous
BTC

in my opinion, probably the drop price from 1100$ to 300$ triggered by people who sell all of their bitcoin (they got those bitcoin when it was 5$/btc)

[iram66680]

The big fall was caused by the confidence lost by Bitcoiners as the oldest exchanges got "hacked" and possibly the Willy bot getting revealed. But still, Bitcoin has gotten its attention from the mainstream media and has gained a good amount of publicity.

[knowhow]

Well the short time that bitcoin stand above 500 dollars were enought to bring more investors into the game,and even now there is more people involved at bitcoin then before,even some of them just waiting to roi and get out.

This pro-bitcoin attitude is great but ye (OP) hath butchered thine engrish with much grammatically incorrect sentences. 999

You're right, before I have heard of bitcoins because my friends talked to me briefly about it and how they could buy, umm... "party favors" with it, but I never really got interested because I wasn't going to try and do stuff like that sketchily on the internet... but when I just got here on the forum, it became more apparent to me that it is a lot bigger than that.  So if I ever run into people who are interested in bitcoins I will most certainly only direct them to here if they would like to learn more, because I know I certainly am.
