60% of world population cannot access computer so Bitcoins will fail.

[emberbekas]

...compared to say u.s. dollar bills which you can hold in your hand or stuff in your mattress.

this is why bitcoins will not go mainstream because majority of human beings on this planet do not have access to a computer.

successful gold standards are things like toyota trucks, ak-47's, u.s. c-notes which thrive in places like afghanistan and africa.

How sure are you that it will remain that way? If this was the 1900's then you'd be right. But the thing is that as technologies advance, more people get reached by it. I believe thay sooner or later, computers or smartphones won't only be present on cities but also on remote areas. Think about it.

I'm sure the technology will spread all over the world and will touch all levels of society. With the current conditions alone, bitcoin has been able to shake the world, what if most people on this planet already knew it? Certainly it will be even more fantastic!

I think there 's no need to fill the entire world population with computers or laptops, smart phones will do it and it is cheaper. Majority of netizens are using their smartphones that perform like a laptop to do some cryptocurrency transactions like bitcoin. I the near future, many sophisticated smartphones and tablets will come out the market to support the so called cashless transactions using bitcoin and other virtual coins.

[costanos02]

I think not, because there are smart phones already , even of you don't have computers smartphones will do some of the task, and time is changing and  technologies is more advance.

[nichoslalble]

I don't think this is became the reason of failing of bitcoins. But I think the cryptocurrencies will be used by all in 5-7 years. The infrastructure is in place already, we just need better algos to function on mobile devices.

[Antonina]

The statistics you gave are rather on the best side, given that the world is now a global village. I believe that even in remote rural areas people have access to a computer or mobile phones with Internet services.

[Vika99siombiwi]

There is no problem you need just a smartphone with internet connection. Some developed countries a smartphone can be purchased with a range of $ 100 to $ 1,000. An estimated 300 million people worldwide use smartphones that can approach a quarter of the earth that we stand today. Bitcoin as a positive impact to combat poverty and unemployment throughout the population of the earth.

the majority of the world's people can not use computers. but I think the majority of people in the world understand about using smartphones. if only using a smartphone transaction is enough to use. I think Computers are only for BITCOIN developers. because bitcoin usage is as easy as fiat currency. the difference is only physical. because the bitcoin has no physical properties.

even though they understand to use smartphones , i dont think that they can easily understand bitcoin. bitcoin is too complex or seems pretty technical for just a normal person , how much more if they are not educated due to poverty?

i do agree that there were lots of poor familiies when compared to fortunate ones but that does not mean the price will continue to fall. there are still a lot of people that supports bitcoin and there were also new people incoming thru it. as soon as bitcoin can become more popular for sure the value can still rise in the long run.

[lifetimebitcoins]

bitcoin is used by just 2 percent of internet population now the price is around 6000 dollars so if it reaches masses we can imagine the price of bitcoin

[AVAMONEY]

I am believe thath bitcoin will not fail, i believe bitocon will success.
Then 60% of world population cannot access computer is not became the reason of failing of bitcoins, we are moving toward innovative world so the 60% you are talking will be have an access to the digital later on. Don't assumed that only have computers can access bitcoins because mobile phones, tablets and other gadgets can access too.

[Silenox]

This is not a reason for Bitcoin to "fail" (what would Bitcoin fail? Its price on fiat to be zero?) Because the trend is Bitcoin and alts being used on smartphones and cards, many people I know and no longer have a PC At home, whoever is is to work, play or study.

If satellite transmissions become real, it will be even less dependent on computers.

[amrenamren]

I wonder where such statistics come from, that 60% of the population does not have access to the computer? I think that this situation is only in some countries. If bitcoin is supported, everyone who has the opportunity to use it, then in the near future the problem with gadgets in less developed countries will be solved!

[stimliall]

As technology advances, smart phones and PCs will be used by more people!
The future is the age of technology. People who will not use computers and smart phones will be eliminated!
BTC will also be accepted by more people. The cryptocurrency will be understood by more people!

[boserobot]

you do not need a computer. A cheap android phone is enough to use bitcoin. Even you do not need internet, you can use a cheap receiver and use bitcoin without internet thanks to bitcoin satellite.

I would not agree that bitcoin will fail because only in that reason. Many people has using computers so I think they have way to help bitcoin to use by other people. Especially now, the children or students are like playing computers so it's a opportunity to teach the children to used bitcoin and to help the bitcoin in failing. The government is the best opponent of bitcoin.

Everything will change how can you say that 60%of the world population will never have the computer access qnd I doubt that 60% is the right value.Because nowadays most of us have smartphone which is enough to have and store bitcoins so this cannot be the reason for the bitcoi fall.

60% population who can't access computer will be dominate by poor countries and indeed OP should be provide the exact data to proof he said was true but currently smartphone users is plenty available in this world and if they decide to use bitcoin then not necessary use computer to having bitcoin

[jeffer8035]

but 40% have 3 computers and many companies have thousands and thousands of servers in the world every time they are more connected and you say that the phones are already a pocket computer so I think you are shod and those who do not have will be looking for the internet and the computers that I swear have to adapt

[Bagaji]

Bitcoin cannot in any way fail because about 60 percent of the world population as you claim don't have access to computer although at this time bitcoin cannot be compared to dollars or faith currency at the moment in terms of adoption.

[rat03gopoh]

At least you also think why now has reached 60%? does computerized technology never develop and suddenly reach that number when it is introduced? Of course to reach 100% it takes some time that is not short, you may forget that the computer is growing from 0%.
