Why are so many people against bitcoin?

[goldexp83]

I personally joined late the crypto game and only until I started to use it I finally understood the importance of this tech! I have to say that I still learning new things day by day (and I work in Startups lol) and if I think about the average person, its pretty hard to them to get it, so its probably a mix of these in my prospective:
- lack of interest (different life priorities)
- lack of knowledge (they dont use much internet)
- wrong knowledge by the media (news of bubbles and so on)
- no friends or closed ones that use the tech and can explaine them

But by using Bitcoin and patience, people will slowly get it!

There are lot of people that are against and don't believed in bitcoin,they always say that  bitcoin is not real.Most of them are my friends and i'm always trying to convinced and discuss to them what really bitcoin Is.and how bitcoin easily help to earn money.

There is a Quote by famous personality ...

" People often hate those things which they do not know or cannot understand " -- Imam Ali (as)

So unless people will not lean how this is beneficial for them , possibility is that they lands in other side.

I'm trying to understand why are so many people against bitcoin?  is it the innovation that scares them? the feeling of staying behind? the fact that that money will go to the wrong hands?

For those people who didn't know about bitcoin, that's normal maybe the reason why they don't like bitcoin is because their lacks of information and knowledge about bitcoin and its benefits.

I think people don't believe there are many reasons of bitcoins, first of all, they don't know what's the currency, then they don't think the currency of the specific form is a virtual things from it can't get a sense of security, to trust, so they don't believe the bitcoin

did you know that most of these people are old? they are the ones who are into the traditional banking system, they didn't know much about bitcoin because they shutdown their mindset about new technologies. The other ones are those who are into the forex trading. they believe that forex is still greater than bitcoin.

The obvious answer is that they havent bought Bitcoin earlier when they should have and now they regret that. Also, some are against the decentralized money. So many of them spill poison against cryptocurrencies.

Many people against bitcoin in so many reason, like bitcoin is connected in internet, people think it is scam another one is bitcoin is not legalize by the goverment so people hate bitcoin because they are close minded to understand what really bitcoin is. They knowledge is not enough thats way many people are against in bitcoin.

People against in bitcoin because they don't have knowledge about it. They are just saying negative feedback on it but they don't have any proof that its true. Why did not try them to work in bitcoin world before they are judge one thing so that they realized the truth.

For people who missed the moment it is still time . This is true for many people BTC is uncomfortable. Jealousy is one of the reasons. Example: A guest gets a lot of money in 20 years of hard work. The same can be achieved in a year investing in BTC ...

It's because they don't know what bitcoin really is, They don't believe that its cost that much and thinks that its really didn't exist because of its unpopularity in past and now suddenly get boom and getting famous as of now. Normal people without a knowledge of it will really just simple ignore it and think that its only a joke, a fake, a false information, spam, and unreal, unlike people who have a fully understanding on bitcoin, They really feel blessed, happy, shocked and excited on what they just know.

Many people are scared of having some changes in life. But I think the another factor why they are scared of bitcoin is the some articles about deepweb or daekweb that usually used bitcoin to purchhase some illegal products.

[ardyology]

They're not really "against bitcoin" but more on "fear of the unknown". They deny bitcoin's potential because they can't fully grasp its existence which led to bitcoin being uncontrollable. The mere fact that it is distributed and decentralized, it scares the heck of them. So they always try to disqualify all bitcoin's advantage because they do know that it will invalidate the system they've become accustomed to or shall I say the system which floats their boats.

Now there are fewer people against bitcoin. But this is still far from the limit. The crypto-currency market is still very young and at the beginning of the growth of its popularity and capitalization. And people need to learn and prove that the future of crypto-currencies.

I don't know any who would be against bitcoin. Even all this politics who dream to centralize it and make it work on the government just warning people of not stable price of bitcoin and risky investment due to that.

They are against because of being blind to this kind of opportunity also lack of knowledge about in bitcoin/crypto currency. Or some are not well updated in our modernization technology. Other than that the governement had no control into bitcoi.

[Marnihughes82]

Because conservatism does not accept their newness. Or for fear that bitcoin might collapse at any time, or regret not buying bitcoin sooner ...

i honestly can not think of anybody who does not benefit from bitcoin! even banks that some people say are against bitcoin or bitcoin is against them are happy about bitcoin. not only bitcoin introduced blockchain technology to them to improve their business but also it has opened up new ways for banks to make money.

[Vin183~]

I think people who do not like bitcoin because they think the bitcoin is an illegal transaction. when in fact it is wrong. Even if the person has already plunged into the world of crypto it must be that person might become fond of bitcoin.

They are against because of being blind to this kind of opportunity also lack of knowledge about in bitcoin/crypto currency. Or some are not well updated in our modernization technology. Other than that the government had no control into bitcoin. Maybe because they haven't tried it yet, or they got the wrong impression of bitcoin. In this case, somebody should change the way they look at bitcoin. Prove them that bitcoin is safe and trustable to invest in.
lack of interest (different life priorities),lack of knowledge (they dont use much internet), wrong knowledge by the media (news of bubbles and so on), no friends  that  can explain to them

But by using Bitcoin and exercising patience, people will slowly get it!
