You can check about legality of bitcoin in countries here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country
However bitcoin transaction can't be blocked/banned by any country so everyone can use it or can send/receive bitcoin even if their government ban exchange of bitcoin to local currency and opposite.

Those people who are trading with the use of bitcoin, people who gambles with bitcoin and people who are holding bitcoins.
And people who are buying goods and services online with the use of bitcoin. So they are the one who really uses bitcoin

People that have never used Bitcoin or people who used it but never did a research regarding this subject think that Bitcoin is being used mostly by hackers and illegal activities such as crimes and robberies. First of all, of course they would prefer Bitcoin instead for USD as it's anonymous. However, USD and other currencies (e.g. your local currency) is way more used for such activities than Bitcoin is. Everybody is using Bitcoin, and I do think around 75% of us have NOT done any illegal transactions.

People who are trying to find an alternative in the bank system and all the restrictions that come with it,also people who are looking for freedom because BTC is freedom-you don't have to wait so much for a transaction and you can send BTC everywhere and the taxes are all the same-no matter the amount send-and that's what makes it so unique-the people are looking how to become independent and BTC is one of the ways to do it

Of course it's people who aware and knows about bitcoin uses it. People use bitcoin for many purposes, like investment, trading, gambling, shopping, etc. It's depends the people what they use it for.
Bitcoin is same as money, so people use it especially for online transactions.

Hi I wonder about the demographics of bitcoin. Who uses it, race, location, gender?

I read the coindesk paper on it, but wonder if there is some other more updated documentation on it.

Regards
I think bitcoin is used by so many people in the world,  different skin, culture, language and gender. But I think the most of them are people in china, becouse there are the biggest minning in the world.

Yes, it's an international currency that have a lot of power on internet.

China have a lot of mining power and that's not all, they have a lot of people that use the coin.

Maybe I can disagree about the gender, I don't see much women using the coin.

Yeah, and I have to add the fact that, besides being a way of making purchases and investments, many people use it as a way of storing value, especially by the fact that it is a decentralized way of storing value, giving more control and safety for the user.

I agree with you. Russians are very interested in Bitcoin as well(they are everywhere! PTC sites, Gambling sites and faucets.). But there are a lot of people who don't even know what Bitcoin is!(me included until a month ago, I knew nothing about Bitcoin, I haven't even heard about it).

It takes time, it will just come in the future as long as people will continue to use bitcoin. It's normal that some does not want to adopt because it's still risky as you can see how the price move. It's a good investment but for big risk takers also, and bitcoin as well is  a good currency we can use in gambling sites.

That's my biggest pleasant surprise, steam accepting bitcoin, battlerite here I come. Cheesy

A lot of people uses bitcoin and most of them are teenagers since they are one who mostly uses internet now a day. And they're the one who are easily addicted to internet.

Also, a lot of teenagers could use some spare money to spend and bitcoin can offer just that, also teenagers can spread bitcoin in their own circles, i can see a wide spread of bitcoin in the next few years and a lot more people will know, therefore bitcoin will enter a little wider circle of usage.

Need some spare btc for a new PC that can at least run Adobe Dreamweaver.

Yes, it's an international currency that have a lot of power on internet.

China have a lot of mining power and that's not all, they have a lot of people that use the coin.

Maybe I can disagree about the gender, I don't see much women using the coin.

I do not think we can state the exact demographics of bitcoin. And for me, it does not matter anyway. In the future, if bitcoin is massively adopted then location, gender, race will not matter.

Well yeah as I can see that teenagers accounts for almost a half of the number of bitcoin users and the potential of them using bitcoin is very high. Because teenagers are the ones who are very easy to adapt new technology and trends, bitcoin isn't a hard task for them to use. Moreover, teenagers using bitcoin will draw more and more other teenagers and that leads to a brighter future of bitcoin   Grin

I think that matters, have a lot of differences between poor and rich countries, a lot of differences between men and women.

Isn't just about the price, you can create services for this people, look for their needs and make something new.

to me those people who know aobut the benefit of bitcoin are using bitcoin, as they know the advantage of bitcoin but still most of the people have no idea about bitcoin therefore they are still not taking interest in bitcoin.
