Please come again. which 'people' are you referring to here, the people who invest in bitcoin or those who are accusing bitcoin as scam?

I am referring to the people who are accusing bitcoins to be scams and fake currencies. I have friends who invested their money in scam bitcoin wallets and lost them. Now they believe that bitcoin all and all are scams.

[spadaccino]

it needs to stabilise its price first and be recognise by a big SEC or something. So all the FUD this years has been giving sh**t to BTC will lose its power and then we can talk.
It's not difficult next step though. Like it's happening in Venezuela, merchants accept crypto because they do not trust anymore the official currency of the state, due to iper-inflaction and so could happen also in other countries too.
I see mass adoption in next months, but first something huge must happen.

It's really hard to encouraged other people to embracing and accepting bitcoin as a currency as of now especially to those people has lack of knowledge about this system and there are some people that has a brief knowledge about it but not believe and trusted it because of a lot of negative news spreading all over the world about it. However, if mostly people think and believe that bitcoin will be the possible alternative currncy to fiat money in the future maybe there's a chance that it will really accepting it by all of the people but probably it takes a long time for that.

For sure we need to encourage people and for that we need some strong government and strong organizations to be a part of it. Only then people can trust bitcoins.

[mathtoughfat]

In to the time that we live in currently it is not the people that we would want to have bitcoin and crypto currency first hand to accept immediately, it is the GOVERNMENT that needs to have bitcoin be recognized. We know how influential government is to each and every country and if they would be the one who can understand and learn bitcoin, chances of bitcoin being accept by people will be high rate. Though we cannot please everyone and we all know that, but government have the means of have an information be circulated to their respective country so with an effort to reach out people starting from the government with bitcoin benefits and information we can open the eyes of people about bitcoin and crypto currency.

[lotao]

I think it is very difficult to promote Bitcoin now, because its conversion method is very troublesome, children and the elderly can't even use the computer!

Well yes. But it will take time and we should hold on to it no matter what. We know bitcoins are the future but it will take time to prove it.

Yes, exactly. We need the governments to step in and take the charge. Governments need to accept the reality that bitcoin will be the currency of the new generation.

[vlad230]

Just shove it down their throat jk

If you follow the news there is a lot of negativity surrounding crypto currency. A lot of exchanges that were hacked, people lost money, increased volatility etc. These "scare crows" are keeping people away from crypto currency. Not to mention that Google & Facebook are against crypto and this is influencing a lot of people world wide.

I think the best thing to do would be to increase the information about these, so people understand what's it all about and maybe try to regulate it.

[rnssol]

This might be right, but when children can learn to use I phones, they can learn to use cryptos. It is just the mater of what we teach them. And as far as elderly are concerned, they do not know how to use google but google still exists and is accepted by all.

Well not a bad idea to just shoving it down  and yes we might need to spread the word... but it will surely take a long time for people to accept bitcoins and cryptos.

[OnceTwiceThird]

After giving more experience and how much we have take profit with bitcoin investment before, maybe I think many people want to accepted bitcoin not only for payment system but also could be investment for the future. They have think for increase money by make investment.

[kryptqnick]

I am referring to the people who are accusing bitcoins to be scams and fake currencies. I have friends who invested their money in scam bitcoin wallets and lost them. Now they believe that bitcoin all and all are scams.

Well, when dealing with cryptos one just really has to be attentive. I don't think it's too hard to google top bitcoin wallets and exchanges, you know. It is also pretty easy to find out that bitcoin is not considered to be scam publicly. What can be an issue, though, is trying to promote the way of treating bitcoin as a currency. You see, most of people want to buy bitcoin to hold it till the better times and then sell it for fiat, as if it was some sort of an asset. Who actually pays with bitcoins without looking at its dollar price? Who pays directly with btc at all? When a coin is not being used to exchange for goods but it considered to be one of those goods itself, we are not moving toward fiat-free decentralized society.

This is a solid point of view that we really need to focus on. By treating bitcoins as only assets would no do justice for it. Bitcoins themselves hold value but people can not realize it as no major companies or organizations accept bitcoins in exchange of goods. If organizations start accepting bitcoins as a currency and exchange it for their products and services only then can people believe in the actual value of bitcoins.

[Pinkprint]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I don't think you have any obligation to convince anyone that bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency is not a scam.

[Kertmu]

I think if you can buy something or exchange Bitcoin for Fiat money, this is the guarantee that it is not fraud.

Obviously it wont be. But still we need to decide wisely.

[vicvicto17]

We don't need to force them to accept it, let the whole ecosystem learn the system of cryptocurrency. Anyways bitcoin dont want us but people needs bitcoin, so I think government will open up this kind of thing.

Well most probably we need the governments to be involved and we need social media sites to acknowledge the fact that people need bitcoins and not bitcoins need the people!!!

[close up]

There is somewhat model that looks like bank, which is centralized, and its 100% need connectivity of internet in order to transact, and its incredibly fast. So, why would we use bitcoin to do transaction beside trading it?

Well bitcoins are not only limited to trading. Bit coins have functions beyond any limitations. Bitcoin is money not just an asset!

[Hkim21]

for trading or as a currency? I think that is two different things, I think people will be more interested if you explain bitcoin as an asset because the profits will be huge, but we cannot cover that a scam might happen, let him choose and consider to join the market.

[cloudbleron18]

It is very hard to convence or encouraging people whom does not understand about bitcoin currency.for now some are believed that it was an scam kind of online thats why it depends to the people who wanted to.maybe they have fear too.

[Cryptoreflector_666]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

The thing is that people need to study any subject before dealing with it. The same applies to bitcoin. Crypto-currencies are afraid only of those people who know almost nothing (or very little about it). Improving the quality and level of knowledge about cryptocurrencies will lead to complete peace of mind and a pleasant investment in the cryptocurrency market right now.

[nickdiaz209]

People just need to start appreciating btc and that's it.

Yes this is a good point as well. We need to remove any negative thinking that they might have regarding bitcoins. We should educate them using facts and figures.

[solarion]

Banks are centralized mate but the bitcoin and most of the cryptocurrencies are really on decentralized cryptocurrencies only, so I want to find the bitcoin should be accepted as the decentralized marketplace with the payment widget means it will be work better.

Then I really want to people believe on cryptoucurrencies and make their investment to grow the bitcoin and as well its price value.

[Shimmiry]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

We can state them what are our experienced with bitcoin. The positive experience in which you just need to be smart enough in choosing where to invest or what to use, because in bitcoin it is how you play. With this, the market stability maybe a problem but make sure that the analyst predictions are true and realistic.

[Marbelli]

I think that time will put everything in its place and only after a certain period of time it will be possible to understand whether we forced people to take massively bitcoin or not

[Impulseboy]

It will be hard to convince people to join the crypto world especially if they already have presumptions that it is a scam. It is also because they do not understand how cryptocurrency really works that makes it hard for them to accept bitcoins as a global currency. There is not much that we can do except try to avoid and perhaps identify scammers and hackers and hope that the crypto world will be a bit better, less unpredictable and more secured so that more people will join in, right?

[ScottDominic]

Scammers, hackers, robbers, thief are always there in every kind of business and we should always become careful and conscious and also use the best security system and that would be enough I think.

[PhilipCornel01]

The most difficult job in this world is convening people in some purpose because people believe only those things which they see and it has become more difficult in this case because bitcoin is a virtual currency.

But if we will just believe that it is hard to convince people to accept bitcoin, then bitcoin can never increase in its value. We certainly need to attract people towards bitcoins.

[rnssol]

The most difficult job in this world is convening people in some purpose because people believe only those things which they see and it has become more difficult in this case because bitcoin is a virtual currency.

Surely until a government intervenes we can not attract much people because as you say they are only attracted to what they can see.

[rnssol]

Scammers, hackers, robbers, thief are always there in every kind of business and we should always become careful and conscious and also use the best security system and that would be enough I think.

Well this is a great answer. We always have scams and thefts even with our fiat money, so we should understand and prioritize our money's security.

[Crypto0035]

Coz its very volatile. Imagine I sold a product for 1btc at $7000 and BTC dips to $6000. I won't like it

[rnssol]

Coz its very volatile. Imagine I sold a product for 1btc at $7000 and BTC dips to $6000. I won't like it

Although this is a good example but eventually when bitcoin will gain acceptance it will be less volatile. And not only bitcoins are volatile but all other currencies as well.

[NatalieBoyd43]

If more people are paying attention to Bitcoin on the positive side, I think there will be more Bitcoin response. Bitcoin is hard to become a currency but can be exchanged widely as currency. It depends on the common effort of the people.

[tuturutmunding]

Must be able to provide good trust and prove all the convenience when dealing with bitcoin I think in that way every individual can accept bitcoin as a currency

[Ahimoth]

If more people are paying attention to Bitcoin on the positive side, I think there will be more Bitcoin response. Bitcoin is hard to become a currency but can be exchanged widely as currency. It depends on the common effort of the people.

It's just a matter of patience and dedication to convince them what we believe in. We must do everything we can so that we will be able to make them accept our belief. In order for them to accept bitcoin we must first do something good. We must catch their attention so that their interest will be hook and we can convince them.

[rudox]

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency which is meant for P2P transaction without any a third party interference. It is not for investment or for trading but purely for payment of services and goods. Go and have a look at Bitcoin whitepaper you will never see investment or trade there. Every evil that is attributed to the use of bit coin is a result of abuse by men and not from Bitcoin ideology. If we use bitcoin for what it is meant for  there will be no evil attached to bitcoin.

[rnssol]

it is very difficult to get rid of the bad impression that is, it started with a lot of ICO scams, most people have been deceived and it has a negative impact on bitcoin and cryptocurrency, I hope that later there will be a solution to solve this problem.

[lazygin006]

A lot of people are already accepting bitcoin as a currency. It is just not publicly being recognised yet. We got to push it more out by promoting and help marketing the advantages of using bitcoin for it to be fully accepted.

[Criptomen]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

That's right . not all the information in the internet are 99% true.Seek external advice .

[Taki]

It is really going to be a hard target, because of if something scammy happen people rather use to judge bitcoin, but they forget those people who are standing behind the scammy scheme.
I think the root of the problem in the mass media sources, which announce a crash of a new crypto scheme scam. Usually they do not make a point that it's not bitcoin's fault, but people organized the scheme. But I really do not know how the problem could be solved.

[12tribes]

The security and reliability of the markets, the tokens and the products must be well defined and uses known, that way the  iota of doubt and fear of ambiguity is forever removed and settled after all no one is so daft and stupid as to just think that there is free money anywhere and of all places on the internet. they would be convinced when they see the results in our own lives.

[bellamente]

The main problem is the prohibition of governments to convert crypto currency into fiat money.

If Fiat can be easily and conveniently converted into crypto-currencies and vice versa, then everyone will use crypto-currencies

[EmmaBen]

Many people are not digitally inclined. Some abhor electronic money, they prefer the hard cash. And, this set of people will always be there. Bitcoin is for the future generation. Accepting it is also dependent on instituting suitable academic curriculum for students to be exposed to a relatively newly evolved digital way of transacting business

[Nanacoin]

we need to tell them every truth we know about bitcoin- Discuss the nature, advantages and the risks involved in bitcoin investment.

[TIDOVEE]

I think the best way to make people accept bitcoin is through the following ways;
1. Let them know the pros and cons of it and Especially the dangers and risks entangled.
2. Every one loves money, let them know it is money and how it can be made.
3. Make them understand that it is legal and not a scam as many people may think.

[Supremacy1]

Many people are finding it difficult to adopt bitcoin bcos of it complex state of use , finding it hard to manage public key , private key and understand blockchain technology

Generally your right mate bitcoin are not scam people are use bitcoin or crypto to get easy money using their talent in the bad ways earnings.

Bitcoin is a new decentralized currency bitcoin is creating from the new technology to help for the people getting better lives but some people clearly use it for the wrong ways, that's why bitcoin becomes negatives effect from the community because for the people making not good.

[Magkirap]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

We must give them the right information about bitcoin. Tell them the benefits that we can get from bitcoin if invest on it. Its really hard to convince others especially when they dont have any idea about it. Bitcoin is not a scam but people use it to scam other people

[adpinbr]

It would be hard to pleased people if they have heard the negative feedbacks about bitcoin so if i were you should tell just a brief information about bitcoin then that's it. let you success do the talking.

[Grayy]

How can the so-called scam not belong to a centralized group or individual? People rush into bitcoin when they hear prices booming so they fail to do extensive research into what kind of wallet or exchanges they should deal with. If you're cautious there's almost no possibility of losing your bitcoin.

[Rossy Akbar]

maybe you meant that some people doesn't believe in bitcoin because it scams ? well just show them you're results what you can get in bitcoin from bounty campaign, and show them what profit you will get if you invest in bitcoin either.

[Cryptotissue]

In order to convince people to accept bitcoin as a currency, I think the best way to make people to accept bitcoin as a currency is through the media. The media is the big influence in about 80% of the world population. Once the media shares positive news about bitcoin, people will accept it.

[Pattart]

I think they should know that saving money at the bank even has the risk of being stolen, the point is being careful. you are right for 5 years I use crypto I have never experienced theft or scam, because I always secure my account and stay away from projects that smells of a scam..

[yakayaka]

There needs to be much better UI with cryptocurrency as a whole, non crypto users are so used to interfaces that offer ease of use.

Until crypto offers the same, people will not be willing to try it out in really huge numbers. This needs to change then confidence will grow and on the back of that people will quickly see this whole new technology is not a scam.... Mass adoption!

 

[LogitechMouse]

Those people who see bitcoin as a scam are the ones who have no knowledge in cryptocurency.

Massive adoption is the number one key for it to become a currency. Another one is that people must have knowledge regarding to bitcoin. They must know that the company and the members are the ones who are scammers and not bitcoin itself.

[Roberttran]

It is hard to do this. It only happens when you encourage governments to accept bitcoin as legitimate. Because most people believe in government. The government agrees that everyone will accept bitcoin.

[Shiversnow]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Its not easy to encourage people to accept bitcoin. Maybe they will accept it if they see the opportunities they can get from it. Tell them everything you know in bitcoin , share your knowledge so they have an idea if they want to invest in bitcoin.

[billionaireSHS]

We need to encourage them that bitcoin is not scam, we can show them some rich people who became successful because of bitcoin , and we can also show them our digital wallet that contains bitcoin. People can be encourage if you showed them a profit or a big amount of money.

[mxyzptlkof6th]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

There are no more solution because this problem manifests from their minds. Even if we say that the verdict are the criminals, techincally, bitcoin still played a part in the said scam. To that end, what all we can do is to spread the positive side of bitcoin and keep quiet about its flaws.

[pltgksl]

By telling its transparency, secure,safe and technology also by telling it is inevitable of accept

[Bulljcak]

Please come again. which 'people' are you referring to here, the people who invest in bitcoin or those who are accusing bitcoin as scam?

of course to those people who accusing btc,they dont understand what really mean cryptocurrency.as for them its just wasting of time and money.they dont know btc help a lot.

[Ezenwanyi]

When the public realise that they could use bitcoin to purchase goods and services at their convenience, you will see everyone scampering to own bitcoin .
What I'm saying in effect is that untill bitcoin is recognised and accepted as a payment medium, its mass adoption remains a mirage.

[eelectrick]

I think giving them the right information about bitcoins is a good start, give them the pros and cons of bitcoins. It's really up to them
to figure which side they are, bitcoins is mostly a generous and vigorous currency. It's open to all yet there are still people who exploit
it's renown stature and popularity thus scams are always popping up somewhere, giving bitcoin somewhat of a bad repute.

[Hell-raiser]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Only time will be able to settle this issue once and for all. Look, everyone loves the American dollar (Continental euro, Chinese yuan, Japanese yen, etc), though you don't see people shouting at street corners that all these currencies are used for every illegal activity that has ever existed since the dawn of civilization (drugs, blackmail, bribery, slavery, child labor, human trafficking, just to name a few). So, essentially, it is a matter of awareness but you can't preach or ensure awareness as it can only come on its own in due course. It should be a natural process as only then the results will be authentic and long-term.

If Bitcoin has genuine value, preaching or raising awareness won't help much. If it doesn't, it won't help at all. Bitcoin is a currency, and as such its existence and features are beyond moral or ethical judgment and valuation. For example, you can't say that a currency is immoral or wicked. It simply doesn't belong to a category of things which allows such verdicts.

[Tamrlan]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

This is my experience.

I have been difficult to pass through the cryptocurrency world. In fact, I spent a lot of time only analyzing the cryptocurrency price that contained my investment funds. Then my friend asked me;

"What you are doing, leave the cryptocurrency world and find another job, no one guarantees bitcoin, and you might be cheated someday"

That's how my friend asked, and I didn't answer it.

But a few years passed, I told him that cryptocurrency is not fraud. I showed him the results of my investment in bitcoin. And now he believes that bitcoin is not fraud.

The conclusion is; Show the results you get from bitcoin (cryptoccurrency) maybe this method can convince them. I have tried it and the result is that my friend now believes in bitcoin.

Remember real results, examples such as vehicles, homes, businesses, and the like.

[Lankabc]

I think we should inform about the technology. not about the profit at place. then we must tell people what is the importance being early members of this community of crypto. we are note telling a lie. blockchain will be key factor in the future digital society. BTC will be the digital currency in that society. people will get the liberation through this new system.

People will accept bitcoin when there will become no rumors about bitcoin and also government make it legal and everywhere got the acceptance of it.

[HiddenPrincess]

First of all governments need to accept bitcoin then people will automatically accept bitcoin as a currency but it’s not a easy task to promote bitcoin because most of the governments are against bitcoin.

[delphic]

You just need to set a good example in practice.More positive experience.And of course to increase the number of goods and services paid in bitcoins.Not necessarily even expensive.And if very expensive, then be sure to bitcoin))) People will see a positive trend in bitcoin trading and also want to try.We need more advertising and informative videos on social networks.Where permitted of course)And where prohibited,to collect petitions,to get everything.And as much as possible, legal transactions.)

[CoinOnTheBeach321]

Yes many people don't know the true value of bitcoin. Scam projects and bad rumors make it more unappealing among the people. We need to spread the true functionalities and benefits of it and people’s success towards it. This will help them to accept it.

[bitcoinminer566]

This is not the right information that people are not interested to adopt bitcoin for scams. Scams have given a negative impact on the overall market and people are worried about safety but people are confident about bitcoin and many countries are adopting this.

[cmaxwell]

with the way at which bitcoin is going, it might likely be accepted as a currency even it doesn't come now it will surely come up in the nearest future. bitcoin is really make head ways in the money market economies of the world are accepting it.

[BulbaLord]

We can make people to accept bitcoin by telling them what youve been experiencing in joining bitcoin.  Tell them that you really earn money by your own.  And dont make scared about scam,  because if you know what to do,  we can protect our self in the scammers and we can be aware. 

[Nanacoin]

We can get people to see bitcoin as a currency if e start using it to transact business- I mean use it for buying and selling.

[mekie]

You can't and shouldn't try to force people into accepting bitcoin-however you could and should show them the good points and positive aspects of bitcoin and by so doing convince them of bitcoins usefulness and value both as an investment and more especially the concept and tech behind it.  

[Crypto11021]

It is very hard to get people to accept Bitcoin now especially with the Bitcoin price falling combined with some individuals who are out to scam people, but again u don't need to force anyone you just need to explain Bitcoin concept and potentials the desire to invest in Bitcoin will come in naturally.

[BlackAngel999]

By people, it would have been better if you had specified them. Does it refer to those who are unaware of the market or not is still unclear. You just need to show them the usefulness of BTC, and hopefully they'll be convinced.

[Champeeon]

To make people accept bitcoin as a means of payment can only be done when there is proper education in what it is, why it exist and why they should adopt it. You can't force it on people but they will come for it when they are really aware that it is not scam or some get rich quick project.

[teejayrichard2]

well you right about the attitude people have over bitcoin for now due to losses they have made from scams. i think we need to build a stronger community and eductate people more on bitcoin. then stronger secuirty should be put in place and ICOs carefully observed so one doesnt fall to these scammers looking for peoples money to run off with

[medussa]

The scams will not hold people back when the bitcoin ETF is eventually approved or if a killer app is eventually found that will drive adoption crazily.we need a strong stimulus

[BitTheLight]

no one can force a person to use bitcoin, everyone chooses their method of payment and in what currency to store the money, of course people are afraid to invest their money, as there are many scammers who cheat and then leave the market with the money. and people are left with nothing. as is the case with MMM

[Xlady]

That is why I believe in regulation somewhat in the cryptocurrency sphere. It will reduce the volatility and curb these pump and dump syndicate. when price is steady, no one will be scared of a massive dump or pump anymore. That is when the real adoption will spread.

[Kimi80]

Yes, like that expression, 'guns don't kill people, people are killing people', we can use it for lots of things in the world and it also can be applied on Bitcoin too. We can not do much about that issue, maybe we could affect on it on small local level but people that have been tricked once is hard to change their opinion. Those who didn't have negative experience with Bitcoin have to research good  everything that they want to know and that will lower chances of scams or similar unpleasant things.

[bling-bling]

The only way fo r people to fully accept as a currency is when there have been considerable transactions across the globe using Bitcoin as payment. This is where big names like Apple, BMW, Samsung, etc. comes in. When people sees that Bitcoin is being "utilized" by the big guns of the business industry, the trust will build up, image will grow for the best, and legitimacy is further confirmed.

[brylle34]

s an ordinary people we don't need to do anything, but if we are rich and has a lot of connections we can do something like regulating bitcoin as payments on our businesses so that bitcoin will be well known or create some good news that will have a great impact on bitcoin

[btcmaster999]

I do not seem this information right as many people are still in favor of adopting bitcoin and many countries governments are talking steps for the adoption of bitcoin. There can be a slow response but that is for limited period of time. This information is rumors in fact.

[josephdd1]

I think right now we must worry about the larger bodies and not individual people because I think the little people already are aware of the benefits of crypto but for the governments its a frightening thought so we need to come out with something that'll be appealing to them.

[2weent6]

Tell people about the goodness of bitcoin, its technology and its function for sure they love to understand more about bitcoin but we cannot force them to use this technology, maybe they are not ready for the risk of this market so we have no choice but to respect it.

[Yramesor0]

Basically, show them proof to make believe that bitcoin being a digital currency is not a scam. Coins.ph is the wallet I've been using to store my coins. It can have Php, BTC, ETH, BCH, and XRP wallets at the moment and looking forward to more coins to consider. The simplest way I did to make my friends accept bitcoins as a digital currency, I bought loads for my mobile phone using the BTC coin I had in my wallet and told them that you can earn those coins through mining, faucets, and bounties to convince them more to jump in the crypto world.

[sngwinner]

We shouldn't force people to accept Btc if they do not want to. That will even let them think otherwise. The best we can do is to use it the way that will attract them and will let them know that what they have read or heard on the media s not what is actually happening.

[Walter789]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Yes definitely you have a point some people are afraid to invest on bitcoin because of fraudulent activities or we called scams, this may cause people and so discourage to try and start engaging in cryptocurrency world. Yes we can't blame people if they don't want to try and experience what is the good side of being a crypto enthusiast. However if we can share those good experience and outcomes rather than discouraging them I think it may help us to go enter in the crypto world.

[hirokazu]

Tell people about the goodness of bitcoin, its technology and its function for sure they love to understand more about bitcoin but we cannot force them to use this technology, maybe they are not ready for the risk of this market so we have no choice but to respect it.

Sometimes, after saying some about the benefits and goodness, they didn't even care. We might also have to do some practice, such as shopping online using bitcoin or altcoin. Then he will see the ease and speed of the transaction. After that, there must be some interest in his head.

[Sunny Matharu]

In today’s era, digital money is desired by every single individual, so that people may transfer them between themselves over the internet, similar to emails. Here is an article of daily use of digital money in daily life.

[G-richy]

It is hard for people to embrace the truth about bitcoin as a currency because its digitalized and it takes those that has knowledge about the system to comprehend,some people may think its a scam,it not true. Its a system built in a blockchain technology with high security,it just need someone in the system to educate others(novice/newbie) about it.

[liseff3]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

People who think 'bitcoin is a scam' I think they are fools, they should be able to distinguish between the two modes in it, namely bitcoin and scamer. Bitcoin is like money it's just an object that can be used by someone for various types of transactions, both as a payment medium, and as an investment asset. And scammer, they are people who use bitcoin as a medium to cheat.

To assure them that 'bitcoin isn't a scam' I think there is no other way, besides being patient, we must be able to direct them to the right path, by giving detailed steps, starting from how to make a wallet, showing a good exchange account, when we must buy or sell. Maybe such a method can grow their interest in bitcoin.

[L lawliet]

we explain it well, we explain it neatly and if you still can't accept it, just leave it

[Hell-raiser]

Yes, like that expression, 'guns don't kill people, people are killing people', we can use it for lots of things in the world and it also can be applied on Bitcoin too. We can not do much about that issue, maybe we could affect on it on small local level but people that have been tricked once is hard to change their opinion. Those who didn't have negative experience with Bitcoin have to research good  everything that they want to know and that will lower chances of scams or similar unpleasant things.

Even though this expression (that guns don't kill people) is true in a metaphysical or philosophical sense, in some countries guns are still prohibited from possession by people who have mental disorders or are otherwise disturbed, and some other countries  guns have been prohibited from possession by anyone who doesn't belong to police, armed forces, and their likes. My point is that while Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are not to be blamed for things OP mentioned (scams) and even for things I mentioned (like slavery, drugs, etc), this may not stop the powers that be from banning crypto if they see that this ban can be effectively and efficiently enforced.

Moreover, I'm strongly inclined to think that the only real reason that prevents the majority of governments from direct attack on crypto is the fact they understand that they are unlikely to succeed, not that they don't want to.

[rnssol]

Basically, show them proof to make believe that bitcoin being a digital currency is not a scam. Coins.ph is the wallet I've been using to store my coins.

We need a lot of knowledge and research before investing into bitcoins else we are at a loss.

[bitfocus]

do you mean using force? hell, no! their next generation won't act foolish like the.

[rnssol]

do you mean using force? hell, no! their next generation won't act foolish like the.

Well no. We can never make someone accept bitcoins by force. We need to figure out the right way to do it. And there sure is a way!

[rnssol]

Tell people about the goodness of bitcoin, its technology and its function for sure they love to understand more about bitcoin but we cannot force them to use this technology, maybe they are not ready for the risk of this market so we have no choice but to respect it.

This is very right. Only telling its benefits won't be enough. We need to prove its practical importance in the real word.

[jonathan6655321]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

We improve the tech, and the user expirience, and let the time do his thing

[HonestAlien]

Since you are trying to change the minds of people who have already identified Bitcoin as a scam so it will definitely be hard. But, if the number of population is educated then I think they will eventually understand the importance of Bitcoin rather than looking at the bad side of it.

[1NV3ST0NM3]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I think this will definitely take some time. Cryptocurrency market has not developed fully and there are many unexploited flaws which makes it unsuitable to be used as a currency. There must be some standard against which cryptos should be valued. In short, we definitely need the help of government in making the cryptocurrencies to be used for making real time purchases.

[FruitSprite]

Mass adoption is really needed for that. Right now, the number of people who understand Bitcoin and how it works is very low. So, it is hard to covey a message among the majority of the population. But, it will happen evetually and we need to be patient for that.

[Midas.Investments]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

It is necessary to let people know what blockchain is, how bitcoin works and so on. People need to understand the simplicity of bitcoin and that's all i think

[SwampRose]

Whenever someone says anything bad about Bitcoin, I try to show them how the scams, criminal activities could have been carried out if fiat currency was used instead of Bitcoin. People are really blind about fiat and how robbers and hackers have been able to steal them even before Bitcoin was introduced. So, you need to change their perspective.

[Firefox07]

We need to make people see that bitcoin is safer to use now than in the past. We need take away all their  hesitation and wrong beliefs on bitcoin.

[MarbleAlligator]

People around the world is not aware of the bitcoin. There are many who do not even know what the hell bitcoin is and what the usefulness of it is. If this awareness is spread all around the world then people can accept bitcoin as currency.

[smile1218]

Please come again. which 'people' are you referring to here, the people who invest in bitcoin or those who are accusing bitcoin as scam?

I am referring to the people who are accusing bitcoins to be scams and fake currencies. I have friends who invested their money in scam bitcoin wallets and lost them. Now they believe that bitcoin all and all are scams.

I think the scammers are the people who are greedy that who wants to have a lot of bitcoins. Please bear in mind that you should not entrust your investment to anyone and make sure you are personally manages your investments  if you do not want to be scammed.

[Vaflia]

First of all, I think we need to get state regulation. When bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies get state support people will stop being afraid to invest.

[mfyilmaz]

I think the main reason why a shop doesnt want to accept bitcoin is its violatility... a currency that can go 20% up or down a day is not a good payment method for them, but on the other hand the more people accept bitcoin the less volatile it will become as the market will groß and the supply and demand wont be seasonal... but this is only theory. On the other hand most small shop users dont know how to do handle bitcoins so there should be a payment gateway for them to easily accept bitcoins which are converted in the actually market price to whatever currency and that goes to his bank account... an easy solution is always a way to go for mass adoption.

[CrashLamb]

There are some security issues regarding bitcoin which are creating a fear in the mind of users and they are back stepping to use bitcoin. The security issues regarding wallets containing the coins have seen many times and investors came to the roads by vicious activities by hackers. This issue must be solved.

[BitTheLight]

bitcoin may not be an aphoristic currency since it is electronic money, in General cheaters are people who are interested in investing their money and any sposabami tries to vymenit they have . Yes there is a risk that you will invest more money than you earn

[CrazyHarpy]

There is no stability in the price of bitcoin. In December 2017, its price was around $20000 but now the price of a bitcoin is just above $6000. I think there will be a stability in the price when SEC will give the permission of ETF to bitcoin.

[isllander]

I think the whole question is in the stock exchanges. Bitcoin's trust has not been lost, but it has dried up to the stock exchanges. It is necessary to pull all the structures.

[Kamote_1102]

There are a lot of ways to show the people that Bitcoin is not a scam. I tried it before. I showed my proof of earning from Bitcoin to my friends and family. some of them believed. but, some of them told me that Bitcoin was just a scam. that's why I learned that we can't force people to believe us whether you show them proof or not. and maybe they had their own reasons why they don't want to get involved with cryptocurrency.

[cryptocamacho4785]

To make people accept bitcoin as currency government has to come forth and pay attention to BTC. If it is being recognized by govt. more the acceptance by mass people would be easier.

[bitcoindigger71]

It is true that govt. needs to step in BTC but along with that one more essential thing to do is making people more acknowledged about bitcoin’s pros and cons.

[felicita]

i guess its still accepted as currency 
I can pay my hosting and Domain since years now with bitcoin.
Also i can pay all food delivery services with Bitcoin.
So i guess this is great starting soon we can pay more and more with it !



kind regards

[KingKongBong4152]

If people in general get the more positive impression about BTC instead of getting discouraged by FUD and scams then it is possible for BTC to be extendedly accepted by people worldwide.

[Hell-raiser]

I think the main reason why a shop doesnt want to accept bitcoin is its violatility... a currency that can go 20% up or down a day is not a good payment method for them, but on the other hand the more people accept bitcoin the less volatile it will become as the market will groß and the supply and demand wont be seasonal... but this is only theory.

That's true though the issue with volatility can be easily resolved by using payment processors (which are the same gateways you mentioned yourself). These are like Visa or MasterCard (which are also payment processors only for fiat transactions), and they process a lot of cryptotransactions at a time which allows them to effectively hedge against volatility bursts using liquidity providers (large exchanges like Bitfinex). It goes without saying that lower volatility itself would remove a lot of issues and unnecessary processes from the equation, and we seem to be if not quite there yet but at least already on the right track there with volatility of main cryptocurrencies visibly going down lately.

[minime0105]

WE can only spread the knowledge and the benefits cryptocurreny will bring to the world and explain how much of a game changer it will be as well as correcting the negativity so many people seem to get attracted towards.

[delegend]

It's for members to create an enabling atmosphere devoid of suspicion,embark on bitcoin education,boost investors confidence and improve on security against scammers.

[Gonzaleti]

Must convince people that bitcoin is a safe, easy and fast payment tool. Although it is not easy but it must be educated by proving that bitcoin is a digital currency, for the digital future something is certain. Show people about future technology, blockchain that can be applied in many fields or peer to peer direct payments that cut a lot of regulations, thus saving time, effort and costs.

[Julie PeaLarsen]

I think we need to provide documentation so that people can understand what Bitcoin is behind the bitcoin technology and then continue the problem so that they can apply it in practice.

[Aleshia696]

If we ask people to accept bitcoin, they will not accept it, its like a joke.I think bitcoin should improve it in some points. easy usablity, easy transaction, If there has any mastercard type transaction system , people would easily accept it.After all, they just have to understand it, because it will be the modern time currency.

[Indai24]

We really can't force some other people to accept bitcoin, though bitcoin still have to improve on something but it's not that easy. Bitcoin already marked as a good investment and one of the best crypto currencies, if there is something to improve on at least it's just so minimal.

[lienfaye]

We cant coerce other people to use or engage themselves in bitcoin, they have their own reason why they dont want to. Plus the unstable price of this currency drive the users to just hold it instead of spending it to buy goods or any other services.

Here in our place they think bitcoin is a scam due to the recent incident involving btc, well the scammers use it as a tool to scam their victims hence those who saw the news thinking btc itself is a scam.

[samarabtc]

In simply like current curriencies, i think it is not possible.People generally doesn't believe on crypto.Their hidden belief is that, all that are used just for dark world.I think very first we need govt. permission that is nation wide acceptance.Then people easyli accept Bitcoin as currency.

[SilverChromia]

Even bitcoin is not even regulated by central bank but for some people bitcoin is already currency for them even we know it is only a digital currency and not a physical or fiat but can also use for our daily needs or change our life in a good way like a real cash and i know sooner or later more events in crypto industries will come and i know one of them is a very great thing can be happen in the world of crypto currencies and that is the legality in every countries as well the central government who will grant permission to continue its operation with a legal processes and that will be the reason for a lot of people to put a lot of trust and faith in crypto currencies and its technologies.

[Btcmicel]

In simply like current curriencies, i think it is not possible.People generally doesn't believe on crypto.Their hidden belief is that, all that are used just for dark world.I think very first we need govt. permission that is nation wide acceptance.Then people easyli accept Bitcoin as currency.

Yes, it should be the first step is from government. A permission and acceptance from them, followed by implementation , so that people used it as a currency

[Ava Duvall]

We need to make people see that bitcoin is safer to use now than in the past. We need take away all their  hesitation and wrong beliefs on bitcoin.

I agree. People should be educated and learn more then they won't be so hesitant

[rnssol]

Well surely the scammers need to be taught a lesson otherwise those who believe in bitcoins might eventually loose their interest.

[scooby_doo23955]

Bitcoin is the top digital currency. Many people already accept it as an alternatively currency. Some company agree to exchange product with bitcoin so because of this people will automatically turn to use bitcoin.

[sponge_bob13]

Bitcoin will accepted easily by the people because it spread all over the world. Now people believe this coin. I think some days later people will automatically accept this coin.

[blockchain12333]

We need to have stronger regulations to avoid such scammers from ruining the image of bitcoins. They must be punished in a way that every one else learns from it.

[kayakcrypto9875]

I think it not a very difficult task because people already know about bitcoin. Bitcoin is the market leader of digital currency I think some campaign will catch more people to learn about this platform and they accept it.

[Boknoi321]

Just focus to convince other people that bitcoin is a good investment that can earn more. Just tell them that we can easily avoid bad people like scammers in a good strategy. We just need to know more about crypto to avoid that bad influence people.

[msk19]

And why force them? When you show with your example how convenient and advantageous to use crypto currency as a means of payment, then people around you will want to use the crypto currency.

[pehuk]

Thanks for your concern. But, if you see the current market situation you will see many people are showing their interests in investing in BTC.

[Lattlyined]

People is already accepting Bitcoin and coming to the market in greater number. If you analyze the current situation you would not say that people are getting reluctant to invest in BTC.

[IndigoRed]

Tell people about the goodness of bitcoin, its technology and its function for sure they love to understand more about bitcoin but we cannot force them to use this technology, maybe they are not ready for the risk of this market so we have no choice but to respect it.

I agree. We cannot force it on anyone. I think people by nature, will keep their own pace when it comes to embracing something they can learn on their own. Think about it. It wasn’t mandatory to buy laptops, smartphones, tablets.. even cars! And yet people still bought them freely because they knew they were essential tools in our daily lives. Same thing for cryptos. With all the troubles, hassles, and high fees of using banks or even PayPal, people will soon realize the many advantages of using a digital currency. Mass adoption can happen. I believe it. Don’t you?

[thantung3110]

One day it will come true. If cryto is strong enough,people will admit it and will ise it as a currency

[mornabo]

If we ask people to accept bitcoin, they will not accept it, its like a joke.I think bitcoin should improve it in some points. easy usablity, easy transaction, If there has any mastercard type transaction system , people would easily accept it.After all, they just have to understand it, because it will be the modern time currency.

Thats true, we shouldn't force it let alone threaten others people to accept bitcoin as a currency, if bitcoin really develops well later,
without you forcing them, they will happily adopt bitcoin because the spread of bitcoin is heard by them

[97bj91]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

We have to accept first that it will really take some time to make people understand what bitcoin is and its potentials. What I do is just educating them by sharing good reads about Blockchain tech and Cryptocurrencies. Informing them about the basics.  About investing, I think we shouldn't push it to them if they are really not yet knowledgeable because it will just add up to their fears and doubt about it.

[andohyeb]

Knowledge and education in the use of bitcoins must be intensified while vendors and merchants can integrate it into their product and services, in such cases people will be forced to learn what it is use for and the way to benefit from it without any scam to their money.

[AliMan]

If we ask people to accept bitcoin, they will not accept it, its like a joke.I think bitcoin should improve it in some points. easy usablity, easy transaction, If there has any mastercard type transaction system , people would easily accept it.After all, they just have to understand it, because it will be the modern time currency.

Whether we admit it or not we all know that we accept a something based on its appearance. We got interested into a system whenever it is really good. If we will prove to them that bitcoin is great and really reliable then it will be easy for them to believe it. Well it's our duty to make them believe but all that we can do is to act right.

Well said. We can spread a positivism linked to bitcoins and block chain and let people accept the reality of importance of cryptos.

[Caraphernalia]

By telling them how does bitcoin works. Also tell them what is a bitcoin so that they could have a knowledge on how they could use it properly. Giving them a prior knowledge about bitcoin might change their mind and also provoke them to use it.

[rnssol]

By telling them how does bitcoin works. Also tell them what is a bitcoin so that they could have a knowledge on how they could use it properly. Giving them a prior knowledge about bitcoin might change their mind and also provoke them to use it.

Yes right. We can somehow tell them that bitcoin is very important and like what you said we can educate them about the uses and importance of bitcoins.

Of course, you cannot force people doing it. However, they will understand that Bitcoin can make them rich when they see that your life has changed for the better thanks to the cryptocurrencies, and not only BTC.

[estupido]

It is very difficult to encourage people to accept bitcoin as a currency because it is ingrained in bitcoin fraud.

[Carrelmae10]

..we cannot force other people to invest and buy bitcoin for their own,,just like what you have said,,many treat Bitcoin as scam,,for the reason that people behind that situations are also a scammers,,trying to steal lots of money by using Bitcoin,,but to some it up,,Bitcoin is not a scam..the negative trust that other people gave to Bitcoin was cause by the people who are using Bitcoins in a wrong way..

[poldanmig]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

to convince people to invest, I think it is a difficult thing to do before telling the profits in investment we must ensure all risks that will be received by these investors

[PX-Z]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

It's absolutely difficult to convince someone to trust immediately with cryptocurrencies, specially bitcoin. Because of those people who accused bitcoin that it's a scam, because they were not able to succeed in their investment, due to lack of knowledge about cryptos. But you can give them some hints and a few ideas on how it really works and how to not get scammed in investing into any cryptocurrencies including bitcoin, that might help them to avoid of losing a lot of money.

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

It is not the people that you should worry. People will accept Bitcoin once they understand the benefits of using it. The problem is the government, central bank and mainstream media because those are the one who tried to suppress bitcoin and cryptocurrency from adopting the technology.

[IndigoRed]

I think the general reputation of bitcoin and other cryptos is that it’s a bubble or just a trend, and so, people find it hard to trust it. But perhaps, if the government backs it up, maybe in the form of a few regulations that are aimed to protect users while still upholding bitcoin as a legitimate digital currency, then I think this will help build more trust –which is essential in the stability of the currency. Do you agree?

[bitterdog]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I think we can help this matter with the most simple way, spreading the awareness to people. We can start to spread it through the popular social media, or media mass, maybe the result wil not going to instantly, but im sure we can make people understand that bitcoin is a new kinda technology and also a currency, and not just a scam.

[DenSamui]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

It's very difficult now for anyone to explain this ...
It is necessary now to wait for stability in the market to begin, as a result there will be less than unfriendly news and the lid will be believed again.

[Miklight88]

The world is full of scammer who what to get rich quick and forget that the little time spent on scamming people could be use on great things that could change his own life forever too , many believe Bitcoin is a scam and will never go near it in any way since it's attached to online stuff but we that do it truthfully will need to keep our stand and let the noobs out there know how it can change their life for good with telling them to try little and wait for some time to see how it went,

[goldSkylark]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

to convince people to invest, I think it is a difficult thing to do before telling the profits in investment we must ensure all risks that will be received by these investors

I think that's where the problem lies. We're stuck in treating bitcoin as an investment. That's why bitcoin has a reputation of being a "get rich scheme." What people need to realize is the practical use of bitcoin as a currency. That they could go to a restaurant and pay with it, or travel the world with ease. We should start using bitcoin for the purpose it was designed for, don't you think?

[krafa]

Bitcoin as daily use will be a fun, first of all we should make a good feeling to the people that, If you have opportunity virtual pay then why would you carry your money in your wallet?
People believe that for trading Bitcoin they need to be an expert of that, but its wrong, for using Bitcoin no one need to be an expert to exchange or trading Bitcoin. Tahe it as a fun and enjoy the world.

[ClassyDancer]

If we ask people to accept bitcoin, they will not accept it, its like a joke.I think bitcoin should improve it in some points. easy usablity, easy transaction, If there has any mastercard type transaction system , people would easily accept it.After all, they just have to understand it, because it will be the modern time currency.

We really can't force some other people to accept bitcoin, though bitcoin still have to improve on something but it's not that easy. Bitcoin already marked as a good investment and one of the best crypto currencies, if there is something to improve on at least it's just so minimal.

Whether we admit it or not we all know that we accept a something based on its appearance. We got interested into a system whenever it is really good. If we will prove to them that bitcoin is great and really reliable then it will be easy for them to believe it. Well it's our duty to make them believe but all that we can do is to act right.

Well said. We can spread a positivism linked to bitcoins and block chain and let people accept the reality of importance of cryptos.

Correct. And maybe instead of posting stuff related to market prices and earnings, we write and talk about the everyday use of bitcoin. Let's talk practical ways we can use bitcoin. Let's celebrate merchants who accept bitcoin in their shops. Let's give emphasis on the advantages of using bitcoin as a currency. What do you think?

[hungsanh2512]

Can I build the investments I set up in Bitcoin or other codecs that could bring me more interest or revenue ? Of course, but I can do this with any currency, and in fact that is one of the functions of the currency. But this does not mean Bitcoin is a kind of asset.

[paragon07]

Yes people are making scam using bitcoin,in our country their are many news that they approch some people to invest on bitcoin and make theft from them. So its so hard to be legalized in our country on using bitcoin, bothering if they will ban in our country

[batang_bitcoin]

It's much better to keep on doing what you used to do and just show those people near you what bitcoin really is. They have seen the vast of scams so they have proof and will stand what they believe. And to oppose their belief, you have to show something that will break that way of thinking that made them wrong that bitcoin is a secure cryptocurrency.

[Vanhoang2000]

For bitcoin to be accepted as currency, bitcons should be serviced and their vendors accept bitcoin payments so the purchaser can use bitcoijn to trade and thus the bitcoin is widely accepted. more widely

[zynan]

For now, we can't force people to accept and use bitcoin as an another currency or way of payment. Bitcoin should need to stabilize it's price in the market first so people would not get intimidate by some negative news and thoughts about bitcoin. Also by showing your success in cryptocurrency will be a good idea to entice them, but just make sure to educate them well about bitcoin before they enter cryptocurrency world.

[bigblackdeck45]

We can't really force people into accepting bitcoin as a major currency. Like you said many people are still confused, afraid and have no idea what bitcoin is. The best thing we can do is to let them get interested with bitcoin. We don't have to force them to adapt to us. Eventually bitcoin will become so popular and big and they will have no choice but to accept the changes.

[zitbau]

It is very difficult. bitcoin is having a lot of difficulties. Its value is decreasing. In addition, some countries are issuing strict regulations with bitcoin. Moreover, fraud is taking place everywhere in the electronic money market. It is doing investor confidence. It seems that investors are selling their bitcoins and causing bitcoin prices to fall in recent times.

[iram3130]

Simple idea would be telling people the disadvantageous of having a fiat currency which may lead to economic crisis from time to time or when the country has some issues. We have seen the surge in the use of cryptocurrencies when people understand the problems with fiat.

[sublime5447]

Why do you have to force people who don't want to? Won’t it only worsen the image of Bitcoin? Let them come because of their own interest, don't be an annoying person, you will only be humbled or even shunned. Let them look at Bitcoin as they want, but it won't have much impact on Bitcoin, the market will remain strong no matter what people say because they are not involved in it.

[ir.yance]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

You're right, there are many people today who are afraid to invest in bitcoin because there are many coins that are scam on the crypto market. we as bitcoin holders must make sure people around the world that bitcoin is not a coin that is scam, bitcoin is a very valuable coin and has many investors making bitcoin a long-term investment.

[Rosa Paula]

This is simply not the proper details that folks usually are not serious to look at bitcoin regarding frauds. Frauds have got offered a poor affect the general industry and the ones are involved concerning basic safety yet folks are self-confident concerning bitcoin and lots of nations around the world are usually taking on this kind of.

[OMGyasuo]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Nowaday, a solution that can eliminate scam is to make transactions through the website. That would significantly reduce fraud in transactions. And of course you have to pay a fee for these transactions ... besides there is still a rare risk that scam websites are fraudulent. You should use reputable websites.

[Chandan_gupta]

Now a days people know about Bitcoin or crypto currency but they dont know about how it's beneficial to them and how they do cashless transaction. So we should advertise about it and aware people that how it works and how beneficial is this for them

[ParveZ219]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

nowadays everyone is crazy for Bitcoins they are accepting Bitcoins as they can trade it and make some profit so we don't need to convince any people about using it they will automatically come and used when we can see that others are making huge profit using cryptocurrencies.

[Tszone]

In most cases, it's a good idea to go ahead and accept cryptocurrency. Consumers are using it more and more. The benefits, such as lower fees than credit and debit cards, the inability to reverse transactions, and real-time bank balances make the acceptance a good idea.

[Mandorinovich]

It will be hard. Volatility is high.

- I would like a coffee
- Okay, it's 0.01 BTC, sorry 0.015 BTC, sorry 0.02 BTC

First step might be is exchange rate stability.

[awosesun]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

You are very correct, the scam associated with bitcoin make people to fear ever investing in bitcoin, some of my friends still telling me they will never invest their money in bitcoin because some of the news they always read about the bitcoin. Also, if people are to beleive in bitcoin, there should be a secure wallet where people investment will be save. The news of bitcoin been stolen from people will always make people to stay away from this precious coin.

[ogzramiz]

First of all, people should be able to buy btc easily. Banks would have better work on this issue. and places that receive btc payments should increase.

[todiefor17]

I think this is really hard, we are anarchy and the whole world has not accepted us yet.
The best way is to show people Bitcoin harmless to everyone, it will take a lot of time but do all that is possible and promote Bitcoin to the community.

[rnssol]

Then we must involve, somehow, the market leaders in this. We need to market bitcoin as a safe and a reliable crypto.

[Edgegeraldine]

The positive aspects that Bitcoin can bring to human needs. That is more acceptable. I think it may be harder to change people's minds.

[liseff3]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Publish what you have gotten from bitcoin, also tell them about a trusted and registered exchange place or service, to buy, sell and trade bitcoin. And don't forget too recommend to them to be careful in using the exchange, application and browser extensions.

[F_Ivanov1993_]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Everything can be said is fraud, but people do not refuse, and with bitcoin.

[rnssol]

Yes this can be a way out! We can make them aware of the trust able sites, wallets and exchanges.

[zikzag]

Please come again. which 'people' are you referring to here, the people who invest in bitcoin or those who are accusing bitcoin as scam?

I am referring to the people who are accusing bitcoins to be scams and fake currencies. I have friends who invested their money in scam bitcoin wallets and lost them. Now they believe that bitcoin all and all are scams.

It's the fault of the people who did not study the resource. Bitcoin has nothing to do with it. Let your friends take offense not on bitcoin and on yourself.

Yup bitcoin obviously has nothing to do scams but yes people need to check the resources before they get involved in any activity.

[dav-santoshi]

First and formost i think the move is to make people  Understand It as a lots of people don't even know what's bitcoin
People generally fear what they don’t understand. If we can start by creating such awareness about bitcoin and its advantage I think it wil a great step in making people accept it

[naily]

bitcoin is not a scam, because I was able to enjoy the results I got through bitcoin, they deliberately spread negative news about bitcoin because I don't think they have ever benefited from bitcoin or other crypto currencies

[BennyK]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

The scams are not associated with Bitcoin because they were projects on their own. The only way this can be checked is to set regulations on various platforms where these projects are hosted. Details of the team members (KYC) and smart contract of the coin must be collected and thoroughly investigated in order to ascertain a good level of authenticity of the project before it is allowed to be posted on the forum or platform.

[WUUEX79]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Don't stop just because someone else doesn't trust you. Don't be fixated on negative reality do what you can still do. Because good opportunities often pass before our eyes. Although not everyone will be sure of what you want, you also don't have to care about that. Keep doing the truth and uphold honesty. Don't think bitcoin can't develop without the trust of others, because you/we can.

[KotBas]

Now and so many people take bitcoin. But the rest need to explain what bitcoin is and how to use it.

[classictee]

We don't need to do anything to make people accept bitcoin as a currency, bitcoin will surely publicize itself. When people see the good thing and how people are getting rich from bitcoin they will venture into it.

[Sethrey]

Why should we assure someone? Crypto is not for everyone. If every person will buy it it will be strange as most of the people don't even understand what to do with it. They just buy it and wait, and it doesn't work like that. You have to know something about trading and investments in order to gain some extra currency. So just leave it for those who know at least something about it.

[indriyanti]

Some of you who do not believe in bitcoin because you think fraud? You simply show them the results you can get from bitcoin and from buying and selling bitcoin, and show them what profits you will get if you invest in bitcoin in real terms.

[Jordens]

They do not need to be forced as soon I think everything will happen by itself, because the crypto currency itself is developing and no longer intends to stop there, and will already break out into the world.

[Tanya78]

I think that bitcoin will prove itself. Bitcoin is now very popular, and in the future everyone will know about it.

[Janation]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Publish what you have gotten from bitcoin, also tell them about a trusted and registered exchange place or service, to buy, sell and trade bitcoin. And don't forget too recommend to them to be careful in using the exchange, application and browser extensions.

Yes this can be a way out! We can make them aware of the trust able sites, wallets and exchanges.

And, how will they be interested on using it? How will they be able to get Bitcoins and where will they use it? This is just some of the questions you must fist ask yourself before making these decisions so you will not be wasting your time to these people that might not even interested on using crypto currencies not not interested on where to get them.

if you want a lot of people to use them, there are still some issues about it mostly the transaction time and the transaction fee though it may not be a problem to some but we all know how people behave these times, they want it instant and easy to use. And there are still some hacks, it is not avoided to be hacked since nothing is safe really from the internet.

[minhlee95]

Before investing in bitcoin, you need to carefully study it and understand whether you are ready to take such a risk or not. And if a person studies bitcoin well, he will immediately understand that this is not a fraud.

[drukoz2]

Over time, people will understand that they do not need to be afraid of this technology, it is not a fraud, but a tool to improve our world. I have no doubt that this time will come and everyone will quietly use bitcoin.

[Gannet]

I think that people do not need to be forced. Over time, people will understand that bitcoin is a very worthy coin to be a currency.

[Qwerts]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Well the easiest way to convince people is through education, literacy about crypto currencies, market fluctuations and pricing disparities. Though it is the most obvious thing to do, many people still don't understand how it works. One other way is through the government, having them consider that cryptos are the big thing and the future of transactions and currencies. When the government starts to consider that cryptos as currencies, the public will quickly follow and accept it worldwide.

[Yadamosan]

That thing will be hard for us to do because there is really a people accusing bitcoin as a scam maybe they're lack of knowledge about bitcoin or something but we can't really ensure that we can handle the people are the scams and not the bitcoin.
Basically most of the bitcoin newbies or new investors is lack of knowledge about bitcoin my advice for them is try to read some articles and forbes about bitcoin because bitcoin isn't really a scam because when it's a scam how do it came here? started from nothing but look at now? so how can you explain that bitcoin is a scam?
Bitcoin isn't a scam people is

[TechnoX_X]

There is no bitcoin that is a scam. If your friend says that bitcoin is a scam then try to take him to the nearest hospital and see if there is a disturbance in his head or in his brain. If the doctor states that there is a meaning of the brain, it should be a scam, not bitcoin. LOL. So it's smart investors don't be stupid. Always avoid a web that feels very suspicious especially to phishing. Your friend got phishing because he was so stupid.

[sormin]

No need to panic facing such a person. Just give evidence that bitcoin is not a scam. They lost their funds because of their own carelessness. They are also still lacking in learning about the things in the cryptocurrency world. Beginners are easily deceived. But just make it all our lesson here, hopefully it won't happen again in the future.

[AfterHot542]

People love to follow each other and also love to choose those which are beneficial foe them and is we are able to make them understand that bitcoin is beneficial for them then definitely they will accept it.

[BlackHills41]

we can make people accept bitcoin only when we successfully make them understand how beneficial it can become for them and also its advantages.

[acreed]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I believe some of them already know scam occur not only in cryptocurrency, even in fiat currency, the currency that always they use, scammer still exist in there, maybe they just don't like Bitcoin, that's why they say something like this.

[levvv]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Always verify the exchange when you want to start trading in that exchange, so you won't get scammed later.
Investing in btc is a long term usage. You should use bitcoin for pay something, accept bitcoin when you sell something.
It will create general awareness to attract peoples use btc.

[perla]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Nothing that we can do except only explain to people who don't know about bitcoin yet if bitcoin is currency, digital currency and it is neutral. Like fiat, who bad is people who use it in bad thing.

[Kainhighwind]

people until now only saw BTC as investment vehicle. wait until they understand the real revolution. uncensorable money!

[BigBos]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

well, the only thing that can make them interested is themselves. well, even though you teach them about many things about cryptocurrency, if they are not interested in that, it will be difficult for them.

[Akenosi]

It is nobody duty to make anybody understand bitcoin, but when the world turns to that direction those who even understand but refuse to follow will eventually welcome it, in as much bitcoin is a currency it doesn't need advert or awareness on is usage or important.

[Ava Duvall]

First and formost i think the move is to make people  Understand It as a lots of people don't even know what's bitcoin
People generally fear what they don’t understand. If we can start by creating such awareness about bitcoin and its advantage I think it wil a great step in making people accept it

I a way yes. getting people educated would be a big step forward! also if people did their own research and not be quick to judge that would be even better

[Bitfling]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I think we can not change peoples minds but we can give different perspective and telling the truth about bitcoin. People will get knowledge about bitcoin and cryptocurrency if theyinvolve in the market.

[BLAST2MARS]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

If only I have the ability to fix the issue of btc then that is the first thing I will do. The scam will be lessen when we reach global adoption but we can't because people still feel that it's absurd to use bitcoin. We should give priority to the user experience than the scams in my opinion.

[princeyeboah]

Most of potential investors seek information from this forum before proceeding on buying Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency. To attract a lot of people to buy Bitcoin, crypto users must be first positive about Bitcoin and avoid the creation of topics that evokes FUD in the people.

[Rony24h7]

It will be hard to convince people but not impossible. First of all we have work for recognizing Bitcoin to people, removing people bad idea about bitcoin. In the help of media we can spread out the message of bitcoin, we can remove their knowledge barriers about bitcoin.
Then need to stabiles the price and make it predictable. People has a very brief knowledge about it but not believe it because of a lot of negative news spreading all over the world about it.

   Crypro currency internet dependent currency that’s way people need internet. How many people use internet? Half of the people in this world use internet what about rest? Need to brought them to the internet.  Creating awareness about Bitcoin. When people will get enough knowledge about  Bitcoin’s transparency, easy way of transaction and others facilities.
People will easily accept Bitcoins as currency. It’s really impossible implies those people who do not understand how cryptocurrency really works.

[jeromix]

It is possible that bitcoin will be accepted as currency since it is being paired already with fiat money. The only thing that bitcoin differs is that it is a decentralized system and the value is constantly changing from time to time depending on the demand and supply of the crypto. But latter could be used as currency even if it is decentralized. There are adjustments already being made on this.

[teamspike911]

Yes, there is nothing complicated ... most likely this will happen ... people feel where the catch is, and bitcoin is more profitable than ordinary money in many ways. Consequently, this process will occur in a natural way.

[rnssol]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Nothing that we can do except only explain to people who don't know about bitcoin yet if bitcoin is currency, digital currency and it is neutral. Like fiat, who bad is people who use it in bad thing.

Yes this is my point exactly that nothing makes a currency fake only the people abusing it are fake.

[tuturutmunding]

I think that is a difficult thing because if we look at the negative side too patently and will result in large losses so that people will feel scared because the risk is too high especially if there is fraud most investors will be traumatized if it happens

[rnssol]

I think that is a difficult thing because if we look at the negative side too patently and will result in large losses so that people will feel scared because the risk is too high especially if there is fraud most investors will be traumatized if it happens

So you believe the darker side of bitcoins is superior to its good one!

[izza123]

There is no need to force someone to use bitcoin as a payment. You can only show by your own example how beneficial and convenient it is to use the digital currency.

[rnssol]

There is no need to force someone to use bitcoin as a payment. You can only show by your own example how beneficial and convenient it is to use the digital currency.

It is surely beneficial and we are looking forward to its acceptance.

[iMark]

I think that is a difficult thing because if we look at the negative side too patently and will result in large losses so that people will feel scared because the risk is too high especially if there is fraud most investors will be traumatized if it happens

Yeah that is the effect of bad news spread by the media, it needs a big power like the government to say that bitcoin is a safe currency and the legality of bitcoin has been made, of course there will be many people who then use bitcoin as a currency and many will receive it

[rnssol]

So this means a word of mouth won't just be enough for people to openly accept bitcoins.

[rosemary4u]

There are several avenues or ways by which we can propagate the good news of bitcoin to the people around us. We can easily do that through our social media interactions and how we make good of use of bitcoin and not just dump it, we can make the price better than it is at the moment.

But the top social media sites have banned anything related to cryptos!!!

[Raggie]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

A lot of scam was causing cryptocurrency lost trust from investors indeed, you can see by the price of crypto in the market currently.
What we can do to make bitcoin accepted by many peoples is just by using bitcoin in every transaction we do.
If we use bitcoin often, peoples will ask and creating more awareness of cryptocurrency around us.

[jozymens7]

We cannot forcefully let people accept btc just like that. One thing we should know is that, learning about cryptocurrencies is a long and also a learning process which involves time. What we can do is that we should just explain it to them and if they accept thats all if they dont then you leave them. 

[maskeffec]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

It's very difficult to encourage others to embrace and accept bitcoin as a currency especially for people who lack knowledge about this system but if most people think and believe that bitcoin will be a possible alternative to future non-cash transactions there might be a possibility that it will really receive it by everyone, but maybe it takes a long time for that.

[Alexfir]

People who are respected in society should use bitcoin

[bit-freedom]

IMO, price stability and liquidity are two factors that are important. The high volatility in Bitcoin price is one big factor that refrain the people around me to invest in Bitcoin. Another factor will be the ease of buying and selling Bitcoin.

[bajigur894784]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

• Tell them that this is an online currency / online money system that cannot be controlled by the government!
• Show them what the value of bitcoin was a few years ago.
• And say Bitcoin will continue to get better and better. will be increasingly used.

Well, Explanation is the most difficult part of teaching someone about bitcoin or Blockchain or even about exchanges. But, maybe some people will understand it in their native language. Therefore, I think, a simple way to convince people about Bitcoin is to provide an explanation in a language that is easily understood by them.

[fipper]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

for investors themselves sometimes are not sure of their own investment let alone explain to others that this investment is not a fraud I think it is very difficult to explain

[riyarana1123]

I think it is difficult to convince those people who become part of scams only those investors can motivate them by their success in bitcoin market.As well as governments can also take initiative in this by encouraging people for use of bitcoin because governments of different nations also earn huge income in the form of tax which is paid by investors.Only that can help to make people so they can accept bitcoin as a currency.

[Ledy Alise]

I think it will depend on the businesses, the more businesses will accept bitcoin, the more people would use it. Everything starts with a possibility to use in everyday life.

[Kristinalopez]

First of all is the country that accepts Bitcoin, which allows Bitcoin to operate as a currency. Then list the benefits that Bitcoin brings to people's values.

[yansen]

it's best to give someone a definition of bitcoin according to Bitcoin white paper. so when they plunge into the crypto world. they will not hesitate and fear. give them an understanding of the nature of the value of bitcoin and the risks. and say to use money as you dare to lose.

[Wonderced]

people accept bitcoin as a money and many people who scams other people not know doing for that some people triggered and introduce of money banking and for that will accept people bitcoin as currency.

[cosmoo]

The cryptocurrency needs to be regulated somehow, so there won't be a lot of scammers. These scammers should be held accountable for what they doing.

[TentallyMooN]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

If someone likes to think so, let them remain at their opinion. I do not see any reason for someone to prove anything. I have my own problems
 

[Getcoinsite]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

How can we tell them that bitcoin is a currency when the truth is we as cryptonians dont use it as what must it be?were keep on saying that this is a currency but we never use this to transact fot goods or even services instead we only uses this for trading and nothing else,before we tell people what is cryptocurrency we must let them see how we use it and whats the real function of this

Yeah, but due to some people lack of knowledge about cryptocurrency, especially in bitcoin and hesitate of bitcoin system due to some spreading fraud news in social media, its really hard to explain how bitcoin works as a an alternative currency. But I believed that the time will come bitcoin will be a world alternative currency and I guess Japan country's started with its evolution, by accepting to their country as a mode of payment in any transaction.

[nizelong]

In order for people to accept Bitcoin as a currency, first of all, its price must be stable, because no one will be willing to use the currency that changes the price every second as a way of payment!

[Sutters Mill]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

You can't make anyone accept bitcoin nor do I think we should. All we should be doing is spreading the word and adoption, but not by force or fear. If you're introducing bitcoin to someone then do so from a neutral perspective and explain both the benefits and risks. Yes, there are scams and thefts but there are scams and thefts with fiat money. Explain why these thefts happen and how you  can protect yourself against them, but don't even try sell them bitcoin as sure-fire guaranteed way to make money as it isn't and that often rings alarm bells for people and scares them off.

[rnssol]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

• Tell them that this is an online currency / online money system that cannot be controlled by the government!
• Show them what the value of bitcoin was a few years ago.
• And say Bitcoin will continue to get better and better. will be increasingly used.

Well, Explanation is the most difficult part of teaching someone about bitcoin or Blockchain or even about exchanges. But, maybe some people will understand it in their native language. Therefore, I think, a simple way to convince people about Bitcoin is to provide an explanation in a language that is easily understood by them.

This is a very valuable suggestion to explain people in a language that they understand.

[rnssol]

The cryptocurrency needs to be regulated somehow, so there won't be a lot of scammers. These scammers should be held accountable for what they doing.

We surely need some serious regulations to keep the scammers under control.

[Rylei]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I don't think you have any obligation to convince anyone that bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency is not a scam.

Yes. Just don't mind them, let them be. It's up to them if they will believe that bitcoin is a scam forever and letting that fear eat their minds. If I were those people, I'll feed myself with information regarding bitcoin and hopefully, change their mindset.

[marlonbatotoy]

It's not easy to make people believe that bitcoin can because of the scams.. Well scamming is a part of life.. Even in fiat there's so much scam but we still using that currency i think bitcoin can be currency if there is no choices..

[Ponti]

People need to get educated about crypto space and blockchain, before they begin to use crypto currencies including Bitcoin. Sometime people lose their cryptos due to lack of information and simple knowledge. Newbie adopters need to understand that cryptos at this point are very volatile and they might not hold value as assumed. Another critical thing is to know how to secure their cryptocurrencies and how to trade them on crypto exchanges.

There should be a way to educate them properly on why is there a need for cryptos.

We seriously need a regulatory authority specified for blockchain.

All abouy your saying is bitcoin site investment scam such as site scammers for investors so they afraid invest to in a real bitcoin even this is not a scam but if we discuss bitcoin here all investors afraid in bitcoin will have a option to have an idea to invest.

[Blackhammer321]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

You should state first what is the purpose of bitcoin. First things first, you need to define everything for better understanding. Then if he questions then you probably need to answer it with proof. We need to have a proof in all the words we will say about bitcoin because there are lot of fake news and more often those are negative, but then it is the faith of the users in the end.

[doodle07]

We should discuss it deeply for them to understand it well and by simply implementing it with the help of the heads of the state, maybe when that time comes bitcoins will be regulated so as the other crypto currencies.

[Marlo0619]

That is true. Some people just want to scam other people for their happiness.  That is why some of the people nowadays do not believe in bitcoin or in any other cryptocurrencies out there. In the future, I hope bitcoin will be accepted in every country and it will be used in our daily life.

[Gheka]

I think we do not need too much attention to people who feel bitcoin is a scam and do not want to invest, we do not even need to explain any questions to others about bitcoin because the truth is so obvious and they can easily find the correct answer through the internet. People have enough intelligence to know the answer is right or wrong, if they are still disturbed by the fake news and rumors, it's just their stupid, we should ignore them because our time is spent on more interesting things like making more money and getting richer through bitcoin

[MinerFTW]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

In general, convincing someone who already has some specific opinion about something is very difficult. And indeed, the large number of ICO projects that turn out to be scam do not help the good image of the crypto world and the BTC.

[Puylybn]

It is very difficult to encourage people to accept bitcoin as a currency because it is ingrained in bitcoin fraud.

[Baronggot]

It's really hard to make these people accept bitcoin as a currency if they themselves are already reluctant for change or perhaps their minds were already poisoned by the wrong information and negative feedbacks by others. So let them stay where they are because in the right time, they will be enlightened and will regret about their wrong perceptions toward bitcoin.

[gokudera]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I think people will accept bitcoin only as a currency when government make it legal in our country. Actually there are so many people accept it but they accept it secretly.

[sormin]

We must educate those who still lack understanding about bitcoin. We must give good and right direction about the definition and purpose of bitcoin. Explain to him what are the benefits of bitcoin for our lives, and also for investment in the long term.

[maxman190]

Every day more and more people learn about the crypto currency, well, all this knowledge is far off, you need more time and then most people will go to bitcoin.

[ace4549]

Personally I don't even believe on this industry I thought it was all scam until I saw some stores and shops that accepting crypto as payment. For me as stores and government consider consider and accepts crypto as payment no doubt they will believe on this industry too. More studies and commercials about crypto to be more realistic for other for them to believe. This is only my opinion and suggestion though. They have their own and personal belief though.

[supandi wiharja]

I think this is not an easy thing to entrust bitcoin to people. because many people can influence each other. Whereas lately prices are always low, there is a possibility when prices soar so many people are interested in bitcoin investment. Because many people are now very concerned about money rather than science. Current money is very valuable to fulfill his life's needs. Getting to know bitcoin requires a personal desire without any element of coercion, with that they certainly believe that the existence of bitcoin can be used as a new source of search in this modern era.

[Wittycoin]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

You can not convince people to accept bitcoin because some people really uses bitcoin to scam others. Bitcoin's price is very volatile and it must establish it's price first and must be recognized or recommended by the SEC or somehow promoted by the government.

[EmmaBen]

You don't make people accept cryptocurrencies. Events will shape the digital future accordingly, with time. Just as with the Internet, so it will be with cryptocurrency. The only hurdle in the part of cryptocurrency, and blockchain revolution in general, is those large multi national financial cooperations, to which the banks belong, global monetary regulatory bodies; the IMF for instance, and the likes. And as you already know, the simple reason for that is because  a person with a fair knowledge or exposure to the principles and operation of cryptocurrency and blockchain, who has come to appreciate the technology, may not want to put his money in a bank account, thus deny these banks the privilege of financial custodianship and consequently, taking away from them investment capital or potential.
This hurdle however, will only be a temporary one. Global progress will not stand still on that account, but will surely run over every hurdle. Just as the past clearly shows.

[dilemamis]

You need to study it carefully and understand whether you are ready to take such risks or not. And if someone learns bitcoin well, he will immediately understand that this is not fraud.

[Tomborneque_1102]

We can only prove them wrong by showing them our own proof of earnings from Bitcoin. Some people are so hard to convince when you don't show them some proof first. But there's no need to force them if they don't really want to believe.

[kendra1107]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

We can't. Let fate take its course. We cannot force people to believe or accept something that they doubt. Only time will make them realize the beauty of adopting Bitcoin or the whole Cryptocurrency system as a currency. Bitcoin, though almost a generation old is still somewhat new to the majority. And so we really can't blame them for being reluctant especially when scam accusations are being spread by the news.

[rodriguezharris083]

yes You should state first what is the purpose of bitcoin. First things first, you need to define everything for better understanding. Then if he questions then you probably need to answer it with proof. also We can only prove them wrong by showing them our own proof of earnings from Bitcoin. because Some people are so hard to convince when you don't show them some proof first

[Goodnuel]

We can make more people accept bitcoin for the place of a currency if we all start practicing the use of bitcoin... If people pay you for your services with bitcoin, then they will trust you to pay them with same. Gradually, more people will start taking bitcoin as a currency.

[Escan0r]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

By telling the person how to make a big profit using crypto currency, it might be the main attraction for that person. Because I tried it like that and managed to accept the crypto currency.

[charlemagne_15]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Encouraging people that bitcoin is not a scam is so difficult especially when they are brainwash by the media and others. We can change their view regarding to this if we show them that it is not definitely a scam by  presenting the results of your investments in here. Also, if we tell them how much money you can actually gain in doing crypto. We can make them accept bitcoin as a currency if we, the users of it, will start using it in our daily lives.

[giacatluong]

The nature of cryptocurrency is special goods, which are generally accepted and widely accepted in payment. Very important thing of the crypto, is who is released ? And how does it flow ? How many nominal goods can be exchanged ?

[gilbert056]

we need to educate people about the good thing about bitcoin and inform them the best things about bitcoin and also the history and the people who became success with the use of bitcoin with this we can attract and make people get involve in bitcoin which is the best thing to persuade people . It will help the bitcoin gain volume if we get more people invest into it

utilizing the results of bitcoin investment regardless of the goals and risks may make investors panic and fear, explaining to everyone I feel in a situation like this now is very difficult because there is no guarantee in the future to be better

[quocsi]

on fact, we can not prevent all the risks associated with investing in e-money because transactions are made through the internet, so it is not advisable to force everyone to invest in bitcoins. But there are still many investors who take risks to make money. I will guide and explain to them the benefits of investing in electronic money. and offer solutions to minimize losses.

[PitbullP]

Actually bitcoin is already accepted as currency in some countries. I think it soon be accepted worldwide

I think the person who will accept that is someone who knows how to use bitcoin. well, because of that, before making a transaction, it's better to teach them the basics of using bitcoin. of course it will be very good for the future.

[zubrr51]

In this case, it is better not to get ahead of the events. When the time comes, most people themselves will accept Bitcoin as a currency.

[lamcouz]

I don't think full takeup of cryptocurrency will be simple but i feel it surely come to pass. Though i feel that once the big names in the business world starts accepting and giving CRYPTOCURRENCE as a means of payment, it will quicken the general acceptance worldwide trust in bitcoin.

We surely are very hopeful for its future and yes there is always a risk in investments whatever they may be, same for cryptos.

[Crungcrungtin]

Someday, in the future... I think
But do not force people to use bitcoin as currency
Just wait...

[rnssol]

Someday, in the future... I think
But do not force people to use bitcoin as currency
Just wait...

Yes this is a possibility to wait. But can we just sit back, do nothing for cryptos and wait?

[bamine]

When btc will reach 100k they will accept. But it will be too late.

[mashutka444]

I think you just need to wait. Over time, there will be changes and bitcoin will become a currency.

[#davidnugroho]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

in fact we have to be more careful in investing and buying and selling because not only in bitcoin or the virtual world, the world of reality is a lot of fraud or even our own lies that must be more careful and do it. investment and buying and selling.

[Traslavin]

Definitely, those people who are going to accept bitcoin are those people who have the background about cryptocurrencies. Those people who has the idea what will be the turn out of having crypto in this stage of technology. This will be more usable to those who knows how to use it and how to handle it.

[Nizmalea]

Simple idea would be telling people the disadvantageous of having a fiat currency which may lead to economic crisis from time to time or when the country has some issues. We have seen the surge in the use of cryptocurrencies when people understand the problems with fiat.

[Junluyna]

By telling them how does bitcoin works. Also tell them what is a bitcoin so that they could have a knowledge on how they could use it properly. Giving them a prior knowledge about bitcoin might change their mind and also provoke them to use it.

[odessit1377]

Unfortunately, a very large number of people do not understand what the bitcoin concludes that he fraud, pyramid scheme and something else. Because that's what they said, no matter who or where. Here it is so most and finds.

[SistaFista]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

To make bitcoin into a real currency, it has to be start from us. We need to use it for buying or selling our goods and services in bitcoin.
Peoples still afraid to using bitcoin because there are many scammers and fraudster in crypto.
Once we can get rid of the bad peoples in crypto, i believe more peoples will join to using bitcoin as a real currency.

You do not have to worry too much about this. If more people know about the potential of Blockchain technology, they will lose a lot of our profits in the future. This is a market only for smart people and realizing the potential. This place is not for those who are afraid of risk and stupid.

[letsfly]

We can make people accept bitcoin as currency by spreading the real information, good tech and future of bitcoin. It wont be easy and it would take time, but as long as we are spreading the info, we are moving one step closer to it

[rnssol]

We can make people accept bitcoin as currency by spreading the real information, good tech and future of bitcoin. It wont be easy and it would take time, but as long as we are spreading the info, we are moving one step closer to it

I would suggest that there should be a platform that gathers all crypto data where real information can be found.

[reda]

Teaching is important of all people and understand the bitcoin. It teaching is important of people easy to learn and get more information. So time to acct and teach the bitcoin history and Daly news. Then people Will be understanding automatically. It change your future. So people use the bitcoin and teach the other people. But it any time to up and down. So people check the market price every time. Then invest.

[pakhitheboss]

Why do you want to convince people?

Scammers and Fraudsters are every where, so if someone says Bitcoin is a scam then let them think in that way.

Where money is involved scammers and fraudsters will be there. It is not our job to convince anyone about Bitcoin.

It is better that you should be convinced Bitcoin is not a SCAM. 

[Rylei]

By telling them how does bitcoin works. Also tell them what is a bitcoin so that they could have a knowledge on how they could use it properly. Giving them a prior knowledge about bitcoin might change their mind and also provoke them to use it.

You can't really make people accept bitcoin just by telling them how it works. Some people might not understand those terms and all. So it just won't work for all.

It's good that you shared information about bitcoin but just don't spoonfeed people with information about bitcoin so they may be curioused about it. Tell them to make a research about it to know its full potential and benefits it would give them.

[Bonsaiav]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Real proof, that's all that can make them sure. The real proof that I mean is the wallet site that we use which has been felt to be quite safe and comfortable for the duration of its users, such as wallets Nexybit , Binance, or you can also use other wallets. In essence the site is safe and comfortable meaning not SCAM. So that's the first step which we need to convey to the general public.

[Cacao2017]

Leads should be more active to make the bitcoin more meaningful if the food store accepts a bitcoin or the hotel accepts a bitcoin deal.

[BitcArchi8]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Those who are now indecisive, then regret it. I have always invested and will continue to invest in bitcoin. Bitcoin has helped to greatly improve the quality of my life. I'll stay with my opinion, and let the others act as they want

[Ridersss]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

yes it is quite difficult to convince someone to use cryptocurrency. we must be able to convince that cryptocurrency is safe, easy and profitable.

[pieppiep]

I think to make a lot of people know the people accept bitcoin as one of your payments then you can use some images that have descriptions about receiving payments using bitcoin, there may be different ways and it depends on your strategy.

[Gonzaleti]

Teaching is important of all people and understand the bitcoin. It teaching is important of people easy to learn and get more information. So time to acct and teach the bitcoin history and Daly news. Then people Will be understanding automatically. It change your future. So people use the bitcoin and teach the other people. But it any time to up and down. So people check the market price every time. Then invest.

It's not easy to convince people that bitcoin is a currency, because digital isn't physically available. Many consider fraud or ponzi schemes, afraid to invest in bitcoin. But when bitcoin reaches a price of almost US $ 20,000 in December 2017, many are interested and want to invest. Our job is to ensure that bitcoin is the same as a currency, can pay for goods directly or through a payment gateway.

[adrgmz95]

First, people generally fear what they do not understand. Second, people do not like radical change.

Those unaware (they are a lot) can be educated on cryptocurrencies from the basics to its nuances. But we can't expect them to immediately use digital money, bitcoin for example, to exchange for goods. They are afraid of the fluctuating price. Like what other members mentioned, they only see bitcoin as an investment instrument.

Even though it is explained to them that the price volatility comes from the growing pains of bitcoins as being relatively new compared to paper money, they still stick to what works in the past. I know a lot of people who did this. They don't believe that cryptocurrencies could be as useful as fiat. Plus, the media exacerbated the natural fear of the skeptics. And it also doesn't help that scammers are out to fleece money from those who invested but still need more knowledge (and common sense, maybe).

Perhaps, like the internet and electric cars, people who do not believe in the value of digital cash or fear it will come to realize its worth if the proof is all around them and they cannot deny it anymore. But as of now, the reality is that every burgeoning technology or new theory is deemed crazy by most people. Only time will test it and hopefully prove its validity.

[darko.bountym]

we can not but the government can fix it. That is the only way how someone can accept bitcoin as a legal currency.

[gaurav82]

I think we can't do nothing on personal level. Because we have very limited field. People will encourage if government or media or big organization will involve in it. On personal level we should use  bitcoin instead of other currency. And should tell others to do this by telling good points of it.

[Chronos_angel]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

I think now it's not difficult to make people believe what bitcoin is because bitcoin is well-known, which might make people afraid to invest in ICO projects.

[Austino1]

Though there are many fake and scam coin now whw have created fear in people but I think we the bitcoin community has embark on a proper evangelism to enlighten people on the real truth about bitcoin ,what it is like now ,what it will look like in the future because we are into it and knows what it is and by so doing we will make people to accept bitcoin.

[qwerty12]

Well, trying to convince people to accept, buy and invest Bitcoin is a "difficult mission".

The principle of Blockchian and Bitcoin technology is very difficult for most people to understand, too many people think this is a scam or ponzi scheme. However, you can get around it.

How to?

Find out how people accept the best facts. For example, some people take information better through reading. So, you can show some good factual sources, then let them do their own research. If Bitcoin is suitable for them, they will see the benefits.

But, cryptocurrency is not a good choice for everyone. This may not suit a person's comfort level with risk, or their time frame for performance.

[Fappanu]

Investing in bitcoin is risky. Risky because the amount of money we have invested may fall. And this is what we can tell our friends and relatives. It is difficult for us because we try to believe people have closed the mind to find out the truth. So if they do not believe it's best to let them go and focus on bitcoin to earn more money.

[Faeton]

People do not need to be forced to switch to the use of crypto currency. They should see for themselves the advantages that they will be provided by the crypto currency, and they themselves should want to use it. This is also not worth rushing them. Everything should go its own way. It will be a long period, but at the same time it will be the most reliable.

[ayodeji01]

Positivity is the real deal with the way bitcoin is dropping at the moment, maybe when people see more successful people that made it through bitcoin investment then the mindset can be changed.

I think to make a lot of people know the people accept bitcoin as one of your payments then you can use some images that have descriptions about receiving payments using bitcoin, there may be different ways and it depends on your strategy.

Then bitcoin surely needs to have a strong strategy as its backbone to stand out.

[aji28]

I think it's very difficult to promote Bitcoin now, because people who lack knowledge about this system and there are some people who have brief knowledge about it but don't believe and believe it because many negative news spread around the world about it.

[Rylei]

I think it's very difficult to promote Bitcoin now, because people who lack knowledge about this system and there are some people who have brief knowledge about it but don't believe and believe it because many negative news spread around the world about it.

If these people who believe in negative news about bitcoin just do their research instead, they may just believe that bitcoin is real.

[rtm125]

Over time, people will understand that bitcoin is not a fraud and it was conceived not for someone's material benefit, but only for our convenience.

[Foxgtx]

There is no need to force someone to use bitcoin as a payment.
It's very difficult to encourage others to embrace and accept bitcoin as a currency especially for people who lack knowledge about this system!

[KonstantinosM]

Warn all the noobies, when you have electronic cash that is truly decentralized, of course you're going to have more fraud.


I think people will get into bitcoin once they realize they can save money and that they can truly be in control of their life. Since bitcoiners will have an advantage (getting the bankers-leech class) off our backs, others will follow.

We're not there yet, we don't even have scaling figured out. So give it time.

[Glutius]

Over time, even the most avid skeptics will realize that it makes no sense to fear bitcoin, as it is a very reliable currency, which is conceived only as an improvement in our lives.

[allthebitandbobs]

More and more sites like this one are beginning to adapt cryptocurrency https://allforcrypto.com/

[innocentlamb]

Lol. There is absolutely no need to make someone accept bitcoins. It's up to every person if they want to accept crypto or not, you can't force your opinion on everyone.

[Dondisimo]

There's no point in forcing someone to use bitcoin, as imposing will only alienate people. This will happen naturally, as this currency will be valid for people and will be actively used.

[AimHigh]

Sometimes even you explain deeply how you earn bitcoin and some of them saying that bitcoin is scam and cause of this was those people who are greedy in money so that is why some of them looking bitcoin scam. You can not force them to accept or embrace bitcoin but you cam convince them thru testify on how you earn in bitcoin.

[tarable]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

all of that is hard to ascertain bro. because that person's view was negative about bitcoin. it seems that by plunging sendiei they can feel that bitcoin is not fraud. but only those who are not responsible have done negative things.

[cr7]

Bitcoin as a kind of payment currency is just getting started, and I'm sure it will be widely used soon, not just in narrow circles! For example, in my city there are already crypto-machines, which people actively use.
If interested, I can upload photos!

[watsonstar]

We don't need to force them to accept it,
let the whole ecosystem learn the system of cryptocurrency.
Anyways bitcoin dont want us but people needs bitcoin,
so I think government will open up this kind of thing.

[rodel caling]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

This current situation of cryptocurrency we should knows a lot of troubles and negative impression about the price value of bitcoin dropping in the marketplace.
Difficult to convince people adopt or accept cryptocurrency or bitcoin as this moment how you show your portfolio to convine them how to make money investung in bitcoin if the price in the dump.

[Burogh]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

People will accepting bitcoin in the future. Right now many merchant not accepting bitcoin because government regulation and i am believe regulation issued by government in the future, bitcoin become currency and accepted as payment.

[sambel90129]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

many people must be introduced to blockchain technology, which is decentralized technology that cannot be controlled by any country. This system is very safe and very transparent, we have to give examples of many developed countries that have used bitcoin as a legitimate payment tool. This indicates that bitcoin is safe.

[devil jin]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Well, we cannot certainly push people to believe on us because primarily, they might already have the trauma from the recent experiences with regards to investing in online investments that turned out to be scams so it is hard for them to believe that cryptocurrency is different beyond those since the system and the whole currency as well are being controlled or manipulated by anonymous beings. But with lots of patience and proving them that you are sincerely experiencing a good life with crypto, maybe their perceptions will change and they will start believing as well as investing with cryptocurrency.

[KS03]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

People are scared by nature.  This technology is also over most peoples heads unfortunately.  We need to improve teh wallets and make it easier to spend out crypto.  I think when we have "crypto cards" where people can swipe and spend we will get much further ahead.  Trying to get someone on the blockchain or download a wallet is more difficult that it would first appear.  Add in scammers and you have a real cluster fuck.

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

It's not easy to gain people's trust especially in those cases that things were hard to believe. A good example is to trust BTC since it has no legal basis that it is a currency many people won't believe about its existence. In order to make people believe a thing about BTC is to lessen those scams, etc and make people trust it slowly.

[Supperslip]

This is impossible for a short period of time, and we need a period of five years, 10 years or even 20 years to make Bitcoin one of the world's currencies. Anyone in the world can use bitcoin as they have used the dollar. We really have to be persistent in making plans for broader publicity

[Raidal]

In my opinion, making other people believe that bitcoin as a currency is not easy. Especially making others want to accept that bitcoin is a payment instrument (currency). All that requires a process. Now there are many parties who oppose bitcoin technology for various reasons. We also have no obligation to force others to accept bitcoin as a currency. A simple effort that we can do so that bitcoin is accepted as a currency by campaigning in various media about the benefits of bitcoin if used as a means of payment. I am sure this will be more successful because the power of the media is very strong.

[DigitalCyberius]

As to your title, you cannot "make people accept bitcoins as a currency", unless you were a tyrannical government, in which case it wouldn't be Bitcoin. The best that the community can do is continue to educate the public, work on better and safer systems, and use the digital currency themselves.

The Cyberius team

[Valakqueen]

I think so that people really see the importance of the internet. Only if the internet is popular can any transaction take place more conveniently? That will make cryptocurrency people look like currency.

[policeoo]

There are a lot of people who are still against crypto currencies and Bitcoin particular. There has been a lot of scams and fear has spread among the people. Those populations are scared now, and they are not trying to invest, they are just scared and they are trying to do all in their power to spread a word that Bitcoin is zero worth, that all this is crap, and so on. There will always be people who are trying it to ruin the whole thing for everyone else. Why should all people enjoy earning the big buck, when big whales want it all for themselves.

[Gromx]

This is always the case, some earn it, others tend to lose.Bitcoin is now at the hearing of almost everyone and therefore it is manipulated by anyone who can do it.This is wrong and clear laws are needed.

[Traslavin]

Actually we can't force people to accept bitcoin especially when they don't have any idea the real goodness that this currency could brought to his/her life. This is such a good example that not all things should be explained briefly if people would not wanted to believe it but instead show it to people that this is such a good thing to try on.

[alexnambawan]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

In order to make people believe in bitcoin, it should have a paper which will be processed and debated publicly and legally. So that the people will know everything about it. The problem is bitcoin is not like that, it is decentralized which means it is not handled by any government agencies.

[hastag_80]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

Every people have there own stand about cryptocurrency,some accept its as an alternate of fiat currency,while the other people threats this as a scam or fraud and we could not take away this from there mind,because of there past experience thats why people seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoin,so therefore we need a right probability to convience some people who dont believe crypto and turns back there faith again into digital system.

[Toukexx99]

So many ways to invite people to accept bitcoin as a currency but to be an official currency is difficult.
first
Explaining in detail about the advantages and disadvantages of investing in bitcoin
second
how are the prospects going forward
will it be able to help the market economy globally.
but makes bitcoin difficult for people to accept is negative issues that have spread widely such as scam or prices that are difficult to predict

[BadKnight]

If we want mass adoption we should fix the scalability issue.
Lightning could solve that but security will still an issue

[toolucky98]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

people just fear about a new thing, it is well known common sense for human, we have to make people know the bitcoin first before they can accept it, it is also harf if there are many stories and news about scams

[frey_oh]

maybe it's hard to convince people to make bitcoin a currency, maybe one way is for investors to motivate them with their success in the bitcoin market. In addition, the government can also take the initiative in this matter by encouraging people to use bitcoin because governments from various countries also get a large income in the form of taxes paid by investors.

[Wall_Streeet]

there is a direct relationship for each new technology, and according to it, bitcoin is now at the peak of interest, after which there will be a General acceptance

[taeewo]

Working towards them to explain the concept and how it works for them and letting them know blockchain is the future of cryptocurrency ,Government too can also make impact on this by regulating or officially supporting it.

[Danilotot]

do not you get it? Bitcoin is inside cryptocurrency. so what should he call him? coin just so he would not be a useful if not enter the bitcoin in cryptocurrency. it's a good idea to find out more about cryptocurrency and those in it

[Kusnechik]

It should also be done, as in the Philippines, where Bitcoin was accepted for payment at a local airline and school.

[rnssol]

Working towards them to explain the concept and how it works for them and letting them know blockchain is the future of cryptocurrency ,Government too can also make impact on this by regulating or officially supporting it.

Atleast the countries who accept bitcoins should educate their fellows that how important it is.

[Jombrangs]

Maybe if we thought them when they were in school and as early as they were child for them to adopt on this and get use to it. By this method probably they will be familiar on the BTC and accept them as one of the currency in the whole world. Children nowadays was easy to adopt by the ways so they will probably accept this and be educated on this. One of the strategy for them to accept to get educated for me.

[adpinbr]

We can convince them if we'd make a great effort out of it, I don't think that it would be easy though, convincing these people would be hard, especially if their minds are actually closed and would not even take a chance to know more about Bitcoin and the crypto, and therefor I do not know how we can possibly affect their perspectives and change it.

Convincing people is a tough job, though we need to make a scheme for it.

[arienna23]

It is very simple. Just tell them that Bitcoin and fiat money is almost the same. It can use in good deeds  and it can also use in bad. If you use US dollar in illegal activities, is that mean that the dollar is bad?

[andra73]

It is very simple. Just tell them that Bitcoin and fiat money is almost the same. It can use in good deeds  and it can also use in bad. If you use US dollar in illegal activities, is that mean that the dollar is bad?

of course not, all depending on where the bitcoin it used, that will establish the true nature of the bitcoin. but the negative news is always evolving faster than positive news.
We can't force people to believe in the bitcoin as currency, because reality itself is still a lot of people who consider bitcoin as merchandise traded in the market not as a currency used as means of payment. Although some can already use the bitcoin as money, but the percentage will still be more that considers the bitcoin as investment assets.

[Dudeperfect]

The best way I know is to start using Bitcoin as a payment instrument without forcing anyone to get involved with it. The momentum will attract many outsiders willing to use Bitcoin and it will also boost the utility value of it so we will be able to use Bitcoin in most of the corners around the world.

[Kasliono]

In my view, to make people accepted bitcoin as a currency by using it in our daily life. For example, when people wanna buy your things, you can ask them to pay it by using bitcoin. Also, when your friends wanna send you Money, you can ask them to send it as a bitcoin. And many more.

[geminiboy]

many countries that have legalized bitcoin are in their country, but they do not legalize it as a legitimate means of payment, all people will be subject to state regulations, and public trust in bitcoin has now spread throughout the world and run according to the regulations of each country

[Crafts12]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

We can make them understand that bitcoin is not a scam by explaining to that 'people' (you're referring) about the unforrunate cases of using it like there are a lot of greedy people that actually scattered in here that the main objective was to get your money. In that way, they will conclude that it is actually a person who refered as the 'scam' and not the bitcoin itself. In addition to that, tell them that bitcoin is a mere cryptpcurrency and doesn't have enough capacity to scam you because it is not its factor and function.

[OddEvenBets.com]

many countries that have legalized bitcoin are in their country, but they do not legalize it as a legitimate means of payment, all people will be subject to state regulations, and public trust in bitcoin has now spread throughout the world and run according to the regulations of each country

Bitcoin legalized does not mean that BTC is currency.
In any case governments can accept it.

[LeetPoolsOP]

You can show them by their own example how useful crypto currencies are and how easy and convenient they are to use in everyday life.

[Othuke]

One thing we can do is to ensure that we who are involved in Bitcoin-related activities are not involved (or perceived to be involved) in fraudulent activities. That way, we help to re-position Bitcoin's reputation.

[Goldenmoll1988]

It is necessary to introduce more advertising, to show people on real examples, that the crypto currency is more worthy than ordinary money, etc.

[javadsalehi]

In my view, to make people accepted bitcoin as a currency by using it in our daily life. For example, when people wanna buy your things, you can ask them to pay it by using bitcoin. Also, when your friends wanna send you Money, you can ask them to send it as a bitcoin. And many more.

Just asking them to pay with bitcoin?
Why should they do that when they don't know the advantages? Why should they do that while there is no problem in paying with fiat?
First, people should know the advantages of cryptocurrencies.

[romantic007]

First of all, explain them the basics of BTC and how do ICOs, locals, exchanges etc work. Make them understand that scums are not based on the essential of BTC.

[eke2008]

I think it is good to create a platform where people will be educating about bitcoin and how it works.let them to know the positive side of bitcoin not negative side. By so doing so many people from different countries will accept bitcoin.

[MinSiu]

As far as I'm concerned, people will accept bitcoin as a currency only if bitcoin is legalized all over the world. But i think it is really hard for bitcoin to be accepted because the government always try to ban bitcoin and cryptocurrency

[T o x i c a l]

I think that we should not force people to accept bitcoin. Each person is individual. He has his own understanding of what is good for him and what is bad for him. If he does not want to deal with cryptocurrencies and avoids them, then we have no right to force him to change his mind. The time will come and he will understand what is right and what is not. No need to impose anything on anyone.

[Gankstard]

In my opinion we need more possibilities to use bitcoin as a currency. For now we can mostly just to invest in or trade and a couple of points to utilize bitcoin as a currency. If we get more point of sale where we can use bitcoin it will become more and more accepted as a global currency.

[junglist.massive]

What for? I'm not being arrogant, but now Bitcoin is still not friendly to most people. The concept brought by Bitcoin itself will make them frown their foreheads and become skeptical. Just let them come by themselves when the hype comes back, stay focused on your business, don't think too much about others unless it brings you benefits.

[muddy waters]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

There certainly should be more educational program regarding the use and investment in crypto and bitcoin in particular.
When I watch TV there are so many shows explaining people how to recognize financial pyramids and Ponzi schemes, so why can't the same be made with relation to crypto?

[zeingrind777]

getting people to accept Bitcoin as a legitimate currency is a difficult job and takes a long time, because it is certain that refusal will continue to emerge, that's why I think to leave it alone until the world really needs Bitcoin as a currency..

[rishad quraishi]

We all know that anything trending that is related with money is always followed by scams. It's on you whether you can find out the scam or not. Because as it is new to some persons, actually it is new and as it is new so new techniques are being used to do fraud so one should do some research on it and do their trading if they find someone reliable and do some research on them too to be over sure that they are reliable. In every sector scam and fraud is a common thing, you got to filter the scams by your self by getting more info about it so that you can find out the fraud easily, and your friends should know these too because it's a common thing.

[AlexAtom]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

When peoples accept bitcoin as a currency, that means bitcoin has already became a stable currency.
For now i think bitcoin price is stable in the market. Even there are many scams in the past, but that was not bitcoin. So peoples can trust on bitcoin.

[bp.comp69]

A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are.

who do you mean here? people who invest in bitcoin or those who accuse bitcoin of being a fraud?
indeed a lot of bitcoin fraud but I don't think that needs to be worried because it is only a matter of our own policy
scam coins are a lot but hopefully this fraud will end soon.
