Why are so many people against bitcoin?

[andiko]

Most likely against bitcoin are those people who did not pay him proper attention and did not buy it at a low price or can not buy it in principle.

[Ru1016]

most of the information the general public is getting about bitcoin comes from mainstream media who interview pundits and "experts" who coincidentally happen to be representatives of big banks....basically people who have a vested interest in seeing the crypto space fail and spew negativity

i swear if i hear "tulip mania" one more time...

[arthotdog]

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?

whos that against bitcoin?that SO MANY?i dont think thats the appropriate word to use in this thread maybe there are some but not that many,and better to says WHY SO MANY PEOPLE ARE NOT INTERESTED in bitcoin..thats because they thing crypto is just another scam and will only make money out of them

[jangangilaya]

There are so many people against bitcoin because they don't any ability how to invest in bitcoin.
Maybe they does not want to spend their time and money to invest in bitcoin, they don't have patience.
Because these people they do not know the value and important of bitcoin in life.

[bestluck]

Because they are sorry they didn't buy it 2 years ago and didn't become millionaires

Yes it is also possible but it is also expected that these people do not know about bitcoin that is why they are against bitcoin. It is expected that these people have heard about a few negative people about bitcoin and because of that they are also against bitcoin but if we will explain everything clear to them and will tell them about the benefits of bitcoin then they will love bitcoin forever.

I think they against because bitcoin the earnings here is not big like the earnings in there country like if your job in real life is a manager in fast food you dont need bitcoin because you earn big by that or your job is not connected in bitcoin.

The window of opportunity was much greater than two years,the rally above ten thousand started recently and even if you invested a month back you could have made a huge profit by now.There are many people against bitcoin and those are bankers and traditional investors who think that bitcoin will ruin their business model as people will be investing in bitcoin and the alt coin market.

[Tsugihara]

maybe in my opinion because bitcoin is the virtual currency that uses the blockchain system, and it can be used for crime and besides the bitcoin is still illegal.

The greatest rival of bitcoin is the central bank, cause they're afraid that they will lose investors . Nowadays people get wiser, instead of investing in banks they choose to invest it in bitcoin. But still, there are some investing in the bank. Next the government, there are some countries afraid that bitcoin will violate and disregard the law, and they are afraid that they can't totally regulate bitcoin because its decentralized and it's non government property , they are afraid because it could posibly use for tax evasion and lead to money laundering and some terrorist attack. And also there are some that really invest big money on bitcoin but still doing fud for main valid reason . To buy the dip to let anyone panic and sell their bitcoin in to low price. There are so many reason why people are against bitcoin.

[Pencil Pastel]

People who are against things like that it is usually out of ignorance and fear. Small minds are also manipulated by media and press.

[Bandon]

Many are against bitcoin especially the media is because they can't control bitcoin. Bitcoin is the future wether you like it or not. Sooner or later people will embrace bitcoin.

[Olihander]

People are against bitcoin because they missed the train, and now they're regreting not giving it a try before... Its all jealousy!

People ,choose being ingorance rather than exploring out of the box. There are some nay sayer  who always throw bad reviews because they think they were left over and it's too late to invest bitcoin. So they will do everything to put down the price of bitcoin. Despite the rise in price there are still afraid on investing bitcoin because they are lack of knowledge on how bitcoin works but.rather than choose only fiat and banks to invest with. Because they believe what they can see and touch not the bitcoin that virtually make money for us because they think bitcoin is a scam and having no.Idea and processes bitcoin do . Also there are some countries against bitcoin, the fsct of regulating bitcoin is impossible and could lead to money laundering and tax evasion.

[anjaydut]

The lack of understanding of bitcoin makes them reluctant to use the money to invest in bitcoin, they think if they change their paper money with bitcoin they will lose everything
probably because the bitcoin is intangible, unlike paper money, coins or gold. However when they hear the bitcoin prices continue to rise they are agitated

[marjohn]

It is maybe, they used to believe the practical ways of grinding money back then and they used to believe that everything in the internet was just a scam.

And some of them just give a reason on how it is being done, there are people who opposed the way that bitcoin is not something to do with degree.

[Argoo]

I have not yet met many people who would be against the crypto currency. Many do not believe in this technology, do not believe in the digital currency, this is true. Crypto currency is a completely new, revolutionary kind of money that is in the virtual world. This money can not be held in hands like other money, people are not accustomed to trusting the usual record of the amount of this money if they do not see where this record is produced and on what basis it is based. It is quite natural and it will take a very long time to dissuade such people in the opposite.

[Chooroz]

For me there are many people who are against on bitcoin because of being lack of knowledge on bitcoin, and because they are lack of knowledge or because they dont have enough knowledge about bitcoin they didn't know the benefits they can get using bitcoin and many people are against on bitcoin because the things they knew about bitcoin is it is a scam.

[kuberayt]

It's because whenever people make a lot of money, everybody else gets jealous. It's just normal in the business world. Either you love it, or you hate it. More money, less problems for us   BTC wooooot

[lyndon30]

I think people against bitcoin they don't know how can help bitcoin for future. They lack of knowledge, for me I believe bitcoin help us and many bitcoiner trust them because of benifits we have bitcoin, I love bitcoin forever

These people are scared because they don't know how cryptocurrencies work, having a shallow understanding about things gives you the feeling of insecurity, and that is why these people are scared. I guess reading and learning about the cryptoworld is the key to really understand how the crypto works.
