Not everyone will agree with Bitcoin, you should know this!

[irixo10]

Not everyone will support Bitcoin of course. We've seen such behaviour in our daily lives; just like not everyone likes you. Another example is Mark Cuban; an American billionaire entrepreneur. In 2017, he said that you should "only invest in bitcoin if you’re prepared to lose your money". We all know that bitcoin is volatile can that 'can cause' loss of your funds but... That statement is like saying you shouldn't invest in Bitcoin. Now earlier this year, in April, Cuban said that he'd “rather have bananas than bitcoin”. Now, in December, he said that his thoughts about Bitcoin hasn't changed.

He also said that "no matter how much bitcoin fans want to pretend that it's a hedge against doomsday scenarios, it is not". While researching, I learnt that one of his reasons for the hate is that he believes Bitcoin to be complex when it comes to usage. "It would have to be completely friction-free and understandable by everybody first." he said. But honestly, I don't see how Bitcoin is complex, all what we know was taught. He makes it look like you need a laptop to access / use it.

He's gone so far as talking his grandma out of it. “She was like, ‘Baby can you help me get me invested in this? Just buy me a couple of the bitcoin, and we’ll just hang on to them' ". This simply proves that some people won't just see the good in Bitcoin. So, don't talk anyone into it. I know he's not the only one who talks such about Bitcoin, but, we are not convincing anyone!

When people don't bring themselves down to learn something how will they know how it works? Yes, he doesn't know how Bitcoin works because he has failed to bring himself down to know it. Also, when people fail to read up on something, it is obvious they will have little to no knowledge about it thus saying all manner of things justify their stance; this is the case with many people out there saying whatever they want because they have failed to understand Bitcoin, hence there is no need being bothered by them. He has been saying ill about Bitcoin since and till date, it is still growing, so who is lossing and who is gaining, what about institutional investors, platforms and cooperation getting involved with Bitcoin, does it mean he knows far more than them?
To be frank, we shouldn't be bothered about talks like that, however allow them to keep seeing the growth within Bitcoin, a time will come when they will be the ones to convince themselves.

I know it and I have to say that I couldn't care less. First and foremost, they aren't attacking me personally. I don't feel obliged to defend Bitcoin from them, they can do what they want and it only makes them look stupid. The market will verify every single claim they make.
It's always important to have your own opinion and not try to fit in at all cost. My father was a great example of a naysayer. Every time I told him about my plans his answer was "don't do it, you'll get hurt" and you know what? After a while I stopped telling him. I kept doing my thing and dealing with consequences. So should you.

Indeed and even me, i don't give even a damn little time to spend to care for what they have said. We all know that bitcoin or cryptocurrency weren't known by all the people all around the world and expected that we have our own opinions and insights regarding on the new things that may come into our life. And yes cryptocurrency or bitcoin serve as a new thing to us but what good about this good thing was it give us the profit and i'm glad that i already knew it.

Mark Cuban is one of my favorite personalities but just because I'm a Dallas Mavericks fan for almost 2 decades.

In terms of his view about crypto, I don't really care as I have my own view about bitcoin too. Everyone is entitled to say about their own view about bitcoin whether it's good or sh*t. Why should we expect the majority should have the same view about bitcoin?

Bottom line, up to you if you will buy those statements. Bitcoin can move forward amid critics. Why should we care about those sh*ts views? Let's mind our own business.

[kentrolla]

Agree with you many of them still hate BTC I would say them as unluckiest people in the world, we have so many examples of the past like none them were ready to buy because of fear thinking that it could be a new technique of scam, those who trusted and invested in BTC are millionaires today we'll that's how BTC is gradually increasing day by day. BTC is giving opportunity for everyone either he/she believes or not let's move on for a better tomorrow.

I simply say, suppose you are a doctor and you go to your area and offer free medical care to all the poor patients.
Is it a good deed or a bad deed?
Of course, this is a good thing, but you will see a group of people who are against your work, they will say that you are giving free treatment, it seems that the doctor is not good.
So, whatever is good or bad, there will always be some people against it.
No matter how much the price of Bitcoin goes up, there will be some people against on it, SO, no reason to worry about it.

There are many billionaires like Mark Cuban who have already invested into Bitcoin and some of them became billionaires thanks to bitcoin. We shouldn't be paying much attention to Mark Cuban's statement, because we cannot forcefully change or showcase benefits of bitcoin when he has already decided to hate bitcoin regardless of its growth and benefits.

[Yatsan]

It is already given that not all are really into supporting Bitcoin for they do not truly understand it making them to isolate themselves or avoid getting into Bitcoin for they easily believe on negative thoughts of other people with regards to Bitcoin. We cannot convince them all to like Bitcoin because we do have different perception about it and we must let it as it is for the concern must focus on ourselves and to everyone who also believes on Bitcoin. Let them realize their own ideas are not right with Bitcoin that makes them to not like it. More likely, just like the others, they will end up liking and believing on Bitcoin in no time. Just let them see it for their own.

I also realized that there will always be Bitcoin hater, because there are always people who don't like Bitcoin and always think
negatively about Bitcoin.

People can freely express their perspective; thus, they have a divergence of views.

We can't force everyone to like Bitcoin, so don't think too much if you meet people who don't like Bitcoin.

It is quite common to encounter people that oppose your particular perspective. As they are typically unfamiliar with the use and purpose of bitcoin. So, we should learn to be open with the different opinions of others.

Everyone has a different way of thinking, we must be able to respect differences of opinion. That way we in this world will be more
peaceful. Therefore a forum like bitcointalk is needed which provides a gathering place for people who support Bitcoin. And I am very
happy to be in this forum, because I can discuss all things Bitcoin related.

In such a manner, we will be able to understand the possible root of their allegations because there could be any conditions that may influence their views. And, the forum helps people to comprehend the variety of subjects associated with bitcoin. It serves as a powerful instrument that encourages everyone to share thoughts and pieces of knowledge. Thus, those people who seek a better understanding of bitcoin join the forum.

I don't think that statement that way.  I think it is more like of saying that everyone should be prepared for losses whenever they are planning to invest in Bitcoin. 

Now earlier this year, in April, Cuban said that he'd “rather have bananas than bitcoin”. Now, in December, he said that his thoughts about Bitcoin hasn't changed.

Well, this statement shows that he rather have ordinary tangible things than the more expensive but virtual ones.  But who cares about his belief, we have our own thought and understanding.  Why should we base our decision to someone who don't understand the real potential of cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin.

The best thing to do with it is just to ignore them, there is nothing that we could get from them if we keep on recognizing them, they hate bitcoin then let go, we don't news to force them to like bitcoin if they don't want it, even though they have big names and popular it won't still affect the bitcoin. Let them not get benefits with cryptocurrency especially the bitcoin. There are many people like him, even those normal people who also hate bitcoin or don't want to try it because of thinking that it is a scam and not good at all.

We can also listen to Robert Kiyosaki, who never ceases to assure everyone that it is necessary to buy bitcoin and whenever possible regularly. Why should we listen to someone who is trying to dissuade or, on the contrary, attract our attention? I urge everyone to have their heads for a sober assessment. It's up to us to decide what to do with our funds. Someone is simply distributing money for humanitarian purposes, can we dissuade him? He has every right to do so.
As for bitcoin, there are people on the forum who believe in it. And also some deny it. But only time shows who are right and who is not.
The majority here agree that our investments should be reasonable, that is, we should not make such spending, after which we will suffer damage. For this, people communicate here to improve their level of knowledge about cryptocurrencies.

That person sounds like a moron though. What is their point? When I first started using crypto the ease of use was one of the first things I noticed. I am sorry but if you cant copy paste type in a number and click send you probably shouldn't be anywhere near money or computers.

Making a wallet is very ease as easy as an email with one exception is that you backup your private key instead of a password and email address. Opening a bank account is pain you need all this info and you need to visit the bank to prove who you are and have all these forms. Crypto you don't need any of that. Anyone anywhere can create a wallet. You don't need special permission from some bank.

I thought of this too, I don't see how he considers it complex when it's as basic as pasting a wallet address and clicking send. To me, it's even easier than sending someone a text message.

Finally, I think I may have to conclude that he doesn't actually know what he's saying. Think of it, creating a wallet address can be done in 3 minutes, and there's no part of it that requires you to be a dev, and yet, someone still calls it complex, I think he may not have proper information or maybe he just wants to make Bitcoin look useless.

You're right. Now everyone will agree with the BItcoin. The reasons? Many of these we can find in real life. I will point it based on the experiences that I most find around my environment or what I have read:
1. They do not know Bitcoin exactly
Most of them do not know about Bitcoin exactly. They are not even read about Bitcoin and understand it. But they only heard something from someone and others. Without any knowledge or analysis, they claim that Bitcoin is bad and not even good to take. They only follow what people say and what the opposite media offer.

2. They know but they don't want to agree
Some of them know about Bitcoin, they know about how cryptocurrency and they also know about the basic knowledge about Bitcoin until the probably future investment. But, they ignore it to know because they really don't like the idea and condition of BTC. Sometimes, politics, financial problems, and also business lead to this problem.

3. People against Bitcoin'Many also against Bitcoin because they think BTC will make the loss of everything, make the financial system broken, unwilling rich condition of other people within Bitcoin, and also the idea of religious relation.
