The reason why people do not get Bitcoin.

[Kprawn]

I think Friedrich Nietzsche said it best — 'And those who were seen dancing were thought to be  insane by those who could not hear the

music.'

We are dancing on the music of a ground breaking technology, also called : The Internet of Money and the rest of the Fiat slaves are not

hearing the music. Can we blame them for not dancing?

We should make them hear the music, and the only way to do this, will be to increase the volume. The volume on the exchanges and the

volume of merchants and the volume of Bitcoin ATM's and the volume of information on public social media.

                                                       -= Increase the volume, so that we can all dance together =-

We need to raise the awareness of bitcoin indeed,but in my opinion the main reason why most people do not get Bitcoin is that they got used to fiat money. Also the so called "herd instinct" shows it's power. When people don't see local shops,merchants and the usual people accepting bitcoin and promoting it they think it is better to stay with their "trusted" banknotes than to risk anything.

At least that's the conception in my country. One idea I have is to get famous and important people use bitcoin. People tend to follow the lead of a more "powerful" man.

What is this game called...this space thing sky something? no man sky or whatever. It was so hyped and people expected a lot, but then it was a big disappointment to most, since they where promised more. Let us not do the same. Let us finish the product first, because right now Bitcoin is a lot of promised things waiting for delivery.

Mainly in world there is always certain gap within generations. Last one generation was not that much tech related and are happy with current traditional conditions. SO no one can force to these types of people by encouraging them to bitcoin.

Second important factor is awareness. Many new user just only trying bitcoin by buying them from seller or exchanger. But still such type of user dont have understand future potential of bitcoins.

I think people must have to give proper time to understand bitcoin environment. This time investment to educating themselves can increase their confidence and trust within Bitcoin.

First of all Bitcoin is needed to be accepted by the countries than price and its stability is
the main part and than the connection to men to men.

If our government ignore btc than what would happen?

When bitcoin price was lower than 200$
how many people knew about bitcoin?

If someone didn't share about btc to you
than how would you know that?

Ok now If the government accept it than it will
be known by most of us,
If the price rises than we will surprise and we are addicted.
awareness about bitcoin will get us addicted to it

[BitcoinHodler]

what we need is that the current people holding bitcoin start to believe for real in bitcoin not just pretend and then at the first sight of despair dump it all on the exchanges.

and the worst part of them dumping bitcoin at times like this is that they are selling their coins to the open orders that whales have placed there for them.

too much of a interpretation. Thats not needed man, because of that we are treated like fanatics or lunatics often.
We are growing bitcoin by diffirent means, thats important not anything else. Who will jump onboard later will feel pain thats it

[Mr.grin]

Well, maybe the reason is simple. they simply give up looking for bitcoin more. I believe, in their quest, very easy to find bitcoin. because I can guess that the direction of the search that led to the faucet. but, they surely will be less satisfied with the results given by the faucet. so, they tried hard to find a larger bitcoin.

[traderethereum]

i think that people don't know about bitcoin because there is a few place that introduce bitcoin into public and people still thinking that bitcoin is just a part of internet and maybe they don't know that bitcoin can be a way for them to make money. the other reason is they don't care about bitcoin and they don't think that bitcoin is new technology that will helped them to make money.

[Stedsm]

We really need some amazing and shocking amounts still to be added to the number of users by increasing awareness as well as organizing giveaways. Even small giveaways would gather many people and increase the needs in their minds to know more about what is bitcoin. Bitcoins should not be shown ahead as a get rich quick scheme, but should instead be shown as a way of conducting finance smoothly.

[Juggy777]

I love the quote and it's perfect for the Fiat slaves. They just can't see we are bringing a revolution to your door steps. The recent events have helped the Bitcoin grow a lot. But there's yet to be done for it to reach it, more than the volumes the focus should be on awareness and that awareness is to begin outside this forum also.

[BellaBitBit]

Great use of the Nietzsche quote, it very much applies to people not getting bitcoin.  I also feel that people don't want to get bitcoin because the general population is afraid of what they do not understand.  At this point I only discuss bitcoin with people that appreciate innovation and technology, it is frustrating to attempt it with others.

I think that a major price increase will eventually force people to understand it, especially if it becomes their only way to pay for their McDonalds.

No ole friend, I am stating the obvious. We should not be sitting on our hands and waiting for them, we should rather go out to them and

show them WHY they should get involved in this technology. Take the USA as a example : People in 1st world countries are spoiled for

choice, and the USA is no different. They get bombarded with "payment options" every day. VISA and PayPal have been in the game for a

long time, but they still advertising. Why? Well... because there are so many other payment options, gunning for their market. Bitcoin

should also become more aggressive, for it to stay current... or it will fade away amongst the other payment options.  

[Zadicar]

All bitcoin users are hoping on this one on which Bitcoin adoption would spread even more as the days goes by.We are hoping for this thing soo that we wont hardly spend our bitcoins and could directly spend them without the need of exchanging to fiat and also If Adoption arises then expected the price would do the same thing too which we are all waiting for.

People are not getting bitcoin because others doesnt know what is bitcoin. Here in my country, not all are aware of bitcoin. Maybe, their is a need of introducing bitcoin to other people on how to use it. The reason why are others have limited knowledge of bitcoin.

[Daniel91]

There are many, many reasons why people don't get Bitcoin or don't believe in bitcoin.
For some of them is difficult to accept that virtual money is future money.
Others don't trust in bitcoin because it's decentralized and without government control.
For some people bitcoin is only possibility for fast profit and they think it will end soon.
How many bitcoin users honestly believe in the bright future of bitcoin?
It's very hard to say.

[Nikensen]

Because we haven't got much more promotion or marketing to make it popular on bitcoin as cash . There are only people in bitcoin community to use it as cash. However, bitcoin is not still accepted from the government so that everybody is disquiet and  do not get bitcoin as cash.

Can you explain how someone can get addicted by price of bitcoin rising or you meant by getting more interested about bitcoin.

If someone didn't share about btc to you
than how would you know that?

You would know it with the help of the interweb. /s
In my country most people don't get bitcoin because they have no interest about it or it's too much complicated for them even if you explain it to them step by step. Some don't like changes.

- Bitcoin is not ran by some company so there is no one who want to spend from their own pocket in marketing/promotion of bitcoin.
- There are also many miners, node hosters except bitcoin users who are supporting bitcoin network and make sure it keep running.
- Sooner or later more and more people will start using bitcoin as cash and for this bitcoin doesn't need to be accepted by government.

I have to disagree. We do not need more promotion or marketing. The Bitcoin community does not use it as cash. Most are just holding or use it very rarely. Some would like to but there is no place to spend Bitcoin. So what we need is to start using them. If i tell a friend to use this new form of money and to get on board, all he need to do is to ask me how often i us it and where and then i will have a hard time explaining why he needs it if he is not going to use it.
