Crypto is Literally Hitting the Road

[Youghoor]

The crypto space is gradually growing but the level of adoption of cryptocurrency into the financial ecosystem is not like that of the rate at which its ecosystem.  The idea of promoting crypto via ADS on vehicles and other public bill boards are great but people need to adopt using it for transactions than seeing cryptocurrencies as investment coins.

For sure, that will be mainstream, and I am sure that will get attention from people who see those ads. They will try to use that car while they can ask the driver about crypto. I guess that it will happen in the other country which cryptocurrency is allowed so people can learn, adapt, and they will know about cryptocurrency.

The crypto.com are smart, and they can use mass transportation to introduce cryptocurrency to the public. I am sure many more ads will be shown in the pubic area and who knows, we will see a big ads flyer on the highway in any countries.

I know someone from Singapore and ask if this is true, he's been a resident there but he doesn't see anything such as OP showed to us. Maybe it is not fully expanded to the whole country or maybe its just a hoax.
Whatever it is, if this true it is good, advertising crypto will help to increase its demand, more investor will come for sure. If it's not, it will be fine, the right time will come for that to happen.

We're almost there! Going mainstream means we are going to see a lot of pumps are we?  That's like this car will be seeing green lights are every crossroads, HSBC is a positive sign in China, we've heard good things going on there and the Chinese are developing their own Yuan digital currency in blockchain.

Wasn't Crypto.com previously the Monaco?

It seems that bitcoin has started again to attract mainstream attention which is good as we can tell we're approaching a bull run soon. Also it seems that not only bitcoin gets attention this time and some altcoins are getting it to like Eos from that image , waves being published in forbes and good knows coming from China again. We're almost there with the end of the bear market and the half is almost here too , what was long almost passed and we started to count the months until this event will happen so good times ahead for cryptos.

I find it ironic though how everything seems to be just as corporate, if not more, than regular good old banker suits and ties.

Decentralise everything? Except marketing, advertising, banking and debit cards systems. Instead of just using crypto (or rather, using crypto to pay and settle everything in fiat) we can now even also earn interest with crypto.com cards, use HSBC's private blockchain solutions, etc.

People used to be afraid the banks would attack crypto and kill them off. Banks were smarter than that. They assumed crypto and made it their own. Now people can't tell the difference.

It will, and get right on time but we can expect the progression as slowly as surely. Though we can make it faster by each of us contributing to the development of it even in simplest manners. Me wearing a shirt with bitcoin logo or showing my stuffs with bitcoin attached to it is a great advertisement for adoption. I see, advertisement is much more effective in this way, rather than just spreading on the internet and social media. Because people look at outcomes, something that is tangible and in that context, attaching cryptocurrencies info in certain tangible items might work.

Exactly just what I thought.

Thats what most people failed to realize. Banking system today are more engaged in Cryptocurrency, as they see potential profit out from the continued expanding Bitcoin adoption globally. One of the thing that banks could take advantage of is the banking escrow service.

This answers as to why the central bank in my country had recognized Bitcoin without any hesitation.

[teosanru]

I think Bitcoin has now become pretty much popular in the western world and a few asian countries like Japan, Singapore, Phillipines. People in these countries aren't very afraid of btc anymore. But they have been thinking it as a currency. Let's say for example they think it's a payment method like paypal which they don't want to use. Despite of that many people are even trying to inculcate it's usage in their daily lives too.

I think Cryptocurrencies definitely aren't moving on the path of decentralisation but they are surely moving towards widespread adoption. I think it's obvious because a common person think he is safe when controlled by the central government.

That looks beautiful. It's a good way of telling the people on the straight that cryptocurrency is real and it's not just digital currency but can be applied in real life. I love Singapore.

[dothebeats]

Whoever thought of this marketing strategy is a genius. Riding the hype train of bitcoin and other crypto is obviously the way to go in order to get attention today. A huge portion of companies last year tried to use the word ‘blockchain’ on some of their services in order to get attention too, and they were quite successful in doing so. Perhaps this is a way to lure in people to ‘try’ what this crypto really means and be a part of the trend. But yeah, any publicity is still publicity so there’s that.

After seeing a couple of crypto-related ads in a single day in Singapore, something suddenly comes to my mind. What if all of these ads are promoting Bitcoin? People would be seeing Bitcoin logos everyday; in MRT, buses, malls, houses, underpasses, waiting stations, taxis, laundry shops, and practically everywhere. Would this help a lot? And those who are not familiar will get curious and would want to know more about it.

Advertisement will create curiosity to check about it but for anyone to start using any product they need to have any benefits for using that particular product and that is the reality, even if you spend a billion dollars to advertise about it, unless and until you need an use of that service you will not start using it. In short if using BTCitcoin or any of its service will get any benefits for the causal user then they will start using it.
Now a days everyone have heard about BTCitcoin but the casual people consider it as tech savvy and difficult to understand, if you can simplify things for everyone to understand and come up with products that a casual citizen can use with ease then it would attract more people into BTCitcoin.

A great way to promote crypto. That's a good idea

[DaveWave]

Those are pretty cool crypto stuffs. Its been a long time since I am also thinking of having some crypto stuffs inside and outside my house. Maybe some more crypto stuffs in my gate and wall. But I was too confused which coins and which designs until I forgot it all with my busy life. After seeing this I am thinking of painting a logo or a sticker in my car too.

Cryptocurrency is indeed getting popular these days but people are still not able to understand it because of a lack of advertisements. If there will be more ads like these in other countries as well (preferably those that are popular for tourists or travelers, too, like Singapore) that will be released in the future, then it can create a way for more people to be more curious about it and possibly adopt it.

Aside from this, I hope there will also be infomercials (that are not way too boring) that will be produced since people are also into watching videos these days. It will help a lot to raise more awareness about cryptocurrency and bitcoin to people.

I will also be traveling to Singapore early next year, and I hope to see that taxi ad (and some other crypto-related ads there if they have) so I can witness it myself and capture photos, too.

[FaithInCrypto]

It would be awesome to see things such as this in public whenever I commute. I do know Bitcoin 2 years ago since it made news locally when it's rate was around $15K I think. Unfortunately, the media seems skeptical about it so most of the news after that was negative like Bitcoin is used for networking scams. That time I've seen a few establishments accepting Bitcoin as their mode of payment but it is getting fewer now. I only get to see crypto posts in forums or Facebook groups today. I hope it booms again like how it used to be.

[bounceback]

that is a good idea. I completely agree with you that bitcoin should make ads about bitcoin in various public places so that many people pay attention to bitcoin images by seeing bitcoin ads in some public places so many people will find out about bitcoin and of course if I think if some people are interested in bitcoin after they see bitcoin ads everywhere, it's likely that bitcoin will advance with these ads.

[Capt00]

If there will be a lot of like this then it would really help a lot in spreading awareness about bitcoin and if taxis or malls will have this ad then those who have not encountered bitcoin will be aware and it could change the mindset of most people about bitcoin. It would then help people realize that bitcoin is a serious thing and that it is not some sort of a scam.

Technically, it is not just bitcoin that will benefit from these advertisements and marketing, cryptocurrencies as a whole, including altcoins will be recognized, as a leading innovation when it comes to digital currencies. In that case, people might think to convert their money to digital currencies out in the market if they figure out how efficient it is through different kinds of transactions that they can encounter in their everyday lives.

Other countries are really starting to look positive on cryptocurrency. I never thought of taxi as a good way for advertisement but the idea is really great actually. We're slowly getting more and more ways of crypto advertisement. It this will continue, population of crypto will even grow more. Hoping that I could also see this kind of crypto advertisement
