Bitcoin is usually used by people interested in technology. I mean, persons with a certain technical knowledge are interested in bitcoin.

My observations are that way. I think Bitcoin needs to reach larger quantities. Can use bitcoin in people who are not interested in technology?
Can people use the bitcoin in the profession group like tradesmen, teachers, housewives, firemen, butchers? Are we going to see the days that these people use bitcoin?

yes, if bitcoin is verry more popular worldwide and gets trending i think that more people will imediately join  and use bitcoin because they dont want to be left behind and not updated on the new trend as long as they know the basics like how to use internet , everyone can do bitcoins anywhere on any device as long as internet capable.

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Bitcoin can be used by people who do not even have a profession. This is the advantage of bitcoin in the possibility of earning without special knowledge. This is a modern earning opportunity.

Unlike the fiat currencies whereby you can
Physically see ur cash in hand or at the bank
Most people are still not convenient with Bitcoins
Buh in some few years to come BTC will take over the world.

I think the question is based on a scenario, Because technically the answer to the question is yes as literally any person can use Bitcoin for its transaction. But in reality will it be suitable or in by any means practical for them? For example will you really think that the elderly will use Bitcoin rather than Fiat currency first? I guess not because it would take some time for them to learn how to use Bitcoin in there transactions.

You are right when you say that most of people that are using bitcoin are interested in technology too. It is possible for every person to use bitcoin. Bitcoin is like all other currencies out there, difference is just that bitcoin is digital one, but it have same properties like other. Therefor it could be used by anyone out there, even old people. Bitcoin is still growing, but it is spreading its influence.

It's answered quite a few times now.

Yes, ordinary citizens can use Bitcoin - simply because we are ordinary citizens using Bitcoin.

But not everybody can use it, because not everybody has access to internet; not everybody has equipment (computer/tablet/smartphone). And not everybody is interested.

I think only people know about bitcoin, and how to use bitcoin can use bitcoin. If ordinary people know deep about bitcoin they can use it. Why not.
But not all of people know it. Just people has a skill know about bitcoin and how to use and how to get it.

Actually, what you have said is happenning in our country. The mentioned group of people uses bitcoin as a means of payment for utilities such as electricity and water, and whats more convinient is that we can send money machine to machine ( phone to phone for example) with no transaction fee. That is why the answer to your question is definitely YES.

You do make certain point about people using bitcoin because they are interested in it,normal people will find it difficult to use bitcoin if they get involved in trading or something,so they would require to have a broker/agent who will work for them and get paid some fee ,but again bitcoin was developed to make sure peer-to-peer transaction takes place and eliminate the use of middlemen,but yet there is use of middlemen here.

I think all those person you mention like teacher house wife or ect.   
they will only have bitcoins if they make a way to earn it and if they know about bitcoin, having a bitcoin is not on the status in life, it is on how your way to earn.

It surely can be used by ordinary citizens as you just have to invest in it there are no such special people who can use it.

Before this bitcoin, the ordinary people go for the stock exchange to make money in the long term and they will buy some shares, and this will take years to give some decent profit. The bitcoin will reduce this duration, and it cut all the brokerage fees. Here if we spend some time means we no need any broker help to invest on cryptocurrency. You don't have time to learn about all altcoins just invest on bitcoin that's it. for this we no need more details just if we see the one year price chart is enough to understand the growth of the bitcoin.

Yes it is very possible. Bitcoin may look complex but there are ways it can be made simple to the people that are not really technology inclined. You just have to avoid using complex terms for them. Use basic and simple terms they can relate with.

I think it is possible for the ordinary people (who are not that open to technology) to be ineterested and use bitcoins in the near future because if it is known by everyone then they will have their curiosity on what really is bitcoin. Also, it's not impossible that we pay bitcoins in malls or in shopping, so there's no way these ordinary people will not use it.

People with interest with bitcoin can learn how to use it, this will depend on how would be the popularity of bitcoin will go on. Not only those who are computer savvy have the chance to use bitcoin because it is not complicated as what people are thinking. There is a guide for anyone to follow if they like to try it, once they read and try it, it would be very easy for them to use it, to tell you, I'm not computer savvy but I learn to use it easily.

I think that Bitcoin can be used and learned even if by ordinary citizens as long as there is interest in technology and willingness to learn, nothing is impossible. So we just have to educate them about here and be patient with them. Eventually they will be knowledgeable about this.
