The reason why people do not get Bitcoin.

[SvenBomvolen]

I think I have just began to understand bitcoin and blockchain technology. And appeared this fork and all discussions about it, but I think I totally get confused  in this changings about the fork. So many opinions about the thing that may not even happen! Just crazy.

[Wintersoldier]

There are many insight of each people in this world, that's why even the good opportunity comes into our lives they won't see it because of their belief and understanding of the individuals. Just like in bitcoin majority of the people once you ask them to learn what bitcoin is and they do some research on it, the result was always said bitcoin is for intelligent people only, which is wrong their mindset is totally stupid or maybe they are just really closed minded.

Because they are close minded that is why they will never gonna learn bitcoins, I believe if they will just try to know it they can comprehend it since the information is free and it's all over in the intenet. Actually I'm not that advance enough in terms of my learning with the online transaction but bitcoin inspired me to learn because I believe there is an opportunity here for investors since it's not widely accepted yet but we believe it will be in the future to come.

Agreed, they don't see the real catch of bitcoin, It is like a pearl in the middle of the sea you cannot find it unless you go swim deeply for you to find out how really beautiful that pearl it is. same thing with bitcoin you take deep unto it for you to learned it more and see the contents for what it can do in the near future in the entire world.

Perhaps, they don't see the real catch of bitcoin since it doesn't catch their interest. Looking forward as bitcoin becomes more popular, people would certainly take that advantage that bitcoin has. Gradually, bitcoin would be the majore currency online which would be significant for people who seeks for good service online.

Seeing Bitcoin like this will surely give a confusion to people who intend or at least try Bitcoin. Like me I just tried Bitcoin for fun, without nothing to do rather than surf the web I just tried on what Bitcoin is all about. At first it was confusing but everyday I gained new experiences that helped me understand Bitcoin. Showing the complicated side of Bitcoin's technology will surely confused the new users. That is why they need to take in small steps in understanding Bitcoin.

Sometimes people do not accept new concept specifically that they are used to having physical money to buy and spend and we cannot blame them for that. Just like the internet, most of the elderly people are afraid to use it because they think they will damage and break it. But on the other side people on the internet like the millenials will have a higher chance that they will use .

most of the people wants to play safe and don't want risk in their life and money. i think they don't want to understand this and they are happy with their life. the most of the people who use it or understand it are those who were in search of online earning or jobless and expert in technology. i think the common people are unaware of it.

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 =-

As I look at the message I think it refers that if theres a music we hear even we don't like the tune or the version of it, if we often heard it without a notice we can memorize the lyrics in unexpected time. Same thing with bitcoin, even they ignore it and refuse it several times they will become familiar unto it,  because the demand of the users was getting higher and quick. And the more it happens the volume is also increasing as time pass by.

Don't be like that, people that aren't into bitcoin can't be consider as cavemen. They are just probably not being reached by things about bitcoin. So they don't know why bitcoin is a good currency and investment. But once they had enough knowledge about it probably they are the ones that will voluntarily ask someone about it.

It depends on what exactly is the case. If people just don't know Bitcoin because they haven't heard from it, then you're definitely right. But if they have been influenced by the media with all their negativity regarding Bitcoin, and don't use or even dislike Bitcoin because of that, then these people are nothing more than a bunch of sheeps. How difficult is it to check for yourself to find out whether or not the media is right. If people would spend under a hour on analyzing the basic aspects of Bitcoin, I am sure they would love it. Especially because it allows them to outrule governments and banks. People have come to a point that they don't trust any of the two afore mentioned.

Very true. I once tried to explain What Bitcoin is to one of my senior who is also a finance guy and till now, even after 1 month he haven't understood how bitcoin is created. I hope he will get the concept one day.

I agree with you. It's useless for people to talk about what they do not care about. I respect the choice of people and I will never impose my opinion on bitcoin.
But if a person is interested, I am ready to share my knowledge about bitcoin

I think many of us have pass this way also.
The hardship of understanding it even though it is easy for us.
If all is new to you and you dont even have the slightest idea that will be much harder.
I understand it though it will just need more attention from the one who will be teaching him. I have been there also. Try to be patient with the guy.

Now might not be the perfect time to introduce someone to bitcoin because of the many issues surrounding bitcoin presently, which could put it in a bad light, especially for those who have hardly heard about bitcoin at all. People who are really interested would do their own research and look at ways in which they can benefit from bitcoin or if it is really something that can help them with their transactions.

Though it looks useless to explain to common public, spreading of the technology is highly required. Making someone understand without the concern person showing interest on it. At the same if we try at least a few that didn't show interest will tend to use in the future if they hear about the same from someone's words.

[Kimi80]

Most of the people don`t have knowledge about the world outside their neighborhood, people do not understand many things, how to explain the reason why they don't get bitcoin, like there is just one. How many different types of personalities there is, and each person have different character. Most of the reasons here are right, every person is unique and therefore we can not claim that there is just one reason why people do not get bitcoin.

Most of the public in our country are not technologically inclined and most of them have not even heard of the computer nor even opened it. While some have known computers and internet but they only understand facebook but does not know what are the underlying technology behind it. This just implies that people today are not really into details on how things work but focuses only on how is it done. Thus talking about hash algorithms, software codes, forks is like talking to a baby using technical words.

 :)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.

[dearbesz1219]

Most people are poor in knowledge about in bitcoin, and some are don't have any interest into bitcoin, there are some also are underestimating themselves into bitcoin, they've been thinking that bitcoin is for intelligent people only. This was my experienced about sharing bitcoin to my neighbors.

[HEQIAOAN]

 :)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.

Knowing all about bitcoin is hard but you can easily use it if you know how it works like the basic things. Only very few people knows about it here in country too. They don't believe that there are really ways of making money online.

the music has been tainted by the noise of the blocksize debate.

Let's solve the noise first before we focus on the music.
