How can we make people accept bitcoins as a currency?

[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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
