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 =-

Well the level of awareness for other people are very low and by telling other people that there is a technology that is bitcoin  that can change their everyday life is very catchy for them, I think we on the bitcoin community must make an uproar for the people that didn't notice the good benefits in knowing and understanding it.

I was talking to a group of people so called economists, most of the people were showing no response to the technology or understand the system. Some people tried to learn but soon got ignorant. People think about Bitcoin in a strange way, they don't even know what it is but try to judge about it.  Sad
Actually bitcoin is still a relatively young currency and I think it will still take a lot of time to get introduced to all the people of the world. I think we should take the responsibility and should try to introduce bitcoin in such area where  people are ignorant about bitcoin. When mass adoptions occur, every people will get bitcoins so easily.

I have tried many times to explain it to people around me but the fact is they are simply not interested in knowing bitcoins and they have a feeling that bitcoin will not survive long which will result in loosing their money so now I don't waste my time behind those people and I keep myself engage in earning bitcoins as time gone once will never come back and its not worth to waste time and energy behind those people.

they are not expose about internet of things thats why they dont get what bitcoin is , I also have friends that dont get it even if I compare credit card currency to bitcoin it just a simple logic but the fact that they are ignorant to most things happening/trending in the internet now they are finding hard to absorb things especially when it comes to internet. They all know just how to log in to facebook but not curious enough to explore new sides of internet.

Agreed that almost all uses internet today but the fact is they are wasting their time on facebook and watching videos on youtube and are not involved in learning any productive things so even if they are spending enough time on internet regularly that doesn't mean they would be interested in knowing bitcoins or learning about it and it will depend on the interest of an individual.

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.

That is a nice analogy but at the same time, it is not like they are deaf, they are the ones holding their hands against their ears and saying, la la la, I don’t hear you, so for those that do that I do blame them, by being unwilling to listen, bitcoin is everywhere if you put some attention.

Bitcoin is everywhere but people are not willing to adopt it or are not willing to show any interest in using it as they strongly believe that bitcoin will not survive long in future and may disappear or may get replaced by new currency in future and that is the reason they prefer to continue with fiat for making transactions.

Those people who do not get bitcoin, perhaps, they are lack of knowledge about the information in bitcoin. or even they had an idea still their eyes are closed unto it.

Only little were known to bitcoin and other digital currency. Even Information Technology people are just feeling new to the bitcoin community. So it takes more time to reach the common public who lack in technical knowledge. Governments showing interest towards their own digital asset help people understand about digital currencies and start using the one they are convenient with.

Reason why people don't get Bitcoin is they don't have knowledge about Bitcoin maybe they try to find information about Bitcoin but the Information still can't made their knowledge more clearly or can be so they assume Bitcoin is very hard to implemented in daily activities, and use Fiat more easy compared Bitcoin.

I agree , I think too that they dont have the knowledge on how to use bitcoin or they dont have an interest in earning some of it. We can easily learn how to earn bitcoin by just simply researching it on google. Its just dome dont have interest on it.

I think there are two types of people in this world. The first they were not interested at all in bitcoin due to ignorance about bitcoin. And the second person is not interested in bitcoin due out in detail about bitcoin. The knowledge that makes them not want to use bitcoin knowing advantages and disadvantages of using bitcoin.

Yeah, the question is why? How can we make more people hear about Bitcoin and also recognize it as what it is. If this is a good thing is another question, but i think Bitcoin could not handle mass adoption.

BTC can't be described in few words. If anyone would hear about BTC in traditional media (TV, newspapers) it would be rather a short mention showing that as not really serious, another tricky think from internet (that can lead you to loose of money Wink ). Such information would simply not bring as much attention as as required to involve masses.

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

The problem is even tho we have increased the volume of the music to the highest as possible, some of them are just closing their ears.
Some people just don't really care about Bitcoin, they think that it a waste of time and money. I know that we can fix it by telling them more about Bitcoin, but there will be some people that won't be told by us. They're too afraid of new things, they don't like innovations.
The music isn't the problem, but the person themself.

I agree and we need the government approval so that they will remove the things that is covering their ears.  One thing I observe is, when the government said it is ok even if the system is untested, almost all its populace adopt that thing without even doing research or whatever.  I think this is the wall or gap that stays between bitcoin and people.  The people wanted to hear it from their Governemnt to use or adopt bitcoin.
In my opinion the Government maybe still fear approve this digital currencies.
There are even some countries giving notice or warning if business with bitcoin is a very risky business.
This is one of the reason why the people don't get bitcoin.
Government afraid of approving bitcoins in the people because of corruption becaue if many people learn earning from bitcoins they will not get any taxes if people resign in jobs and switch to bitcoin 1obs they will not get money that's why media doesn't tell about it here in the philippines.

You are wrong with that statement. The government in the philippines is not afraid of bitcoins so the media does not advertise or play it on the news. The reason why the media does not include bitcoin in the mainstream news is because they are so focused on the extra judicial killings and other issues highlighting that the president was the worst President the country. The government also does not tackles bitcoin since they are being loaded by investigations on the different issues storming the country.

yeah i think the main reason is the lack of knowledge about it and the most of the people toughts that it is very difficult to use any online currency or they find it risky to invest online..... this is usually happen in most of the backward countries or african countries where the access of internet is not so easy like europian countries.....

In other news they seem not to care if they present stuff people will not understand in a short period. And nobody is forbidding them to make a longer show or article where there talk about and explain Bitcoin.

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.  Wink
In my country i think the only reason people do not get bitcoin is because they do not know bitcoin at all . Because if you all ready know bitcoin and it's fast transaction, fast increase of value or even it's basic info , there's the time you'll think that you need to use bitcoin and you need to use it in you life. Just do in forum more to know more in bitcoin  and be able to be a part of signature campaign and earn for it. Just work hard and study more on bitcoin to get more reason to get bitcoin.
