Are people still doubting Bitcoin.

[Minor Miner]

When bitcoin was still early, most people never had confidence in bitcoin, most people never believed bitcoin price is going to get to the current price, they just believed bitcoin is going to disappear after some time, that was why lots of people didn’t even invest when price was still low, and most people that invested then didn’t hold for long, because they had no confidence in bitcoin.

People started having confidence in bitcoin when the price started increasing, and we were seeing more adoption, then most people came to realize the truth that bitcoin is going nowhere, and it’s better they join at the early stage also. We should know that not everyone is going to believe or invest in bitcoin, and we are not even suppose to force anyone.

I believe that if we had known about Bitcoin in its early stages, most of us wouldn't have trusted it either, not only famous people like Saylor or major investors who were skeptical of Bitcoin. Clearly, at that time, the idea of ​​a decentralized currency was so new that it's understandable many people couldn't envision its potential value.

Even today, many people remain skeptical about bitcoin and that's perfectly normal. We cannot expect or force everyone to invest in bitcoin because everyone's preferences and tastes are different. If I remember correctly, many Bitcoin investors even doubted the future of gold and put forward hundreds of theories about how the price of gold would lose value in the future. Why are we surprised that so many people are still skeptical about Bitcoin?

[Bd officer]

Not only him, many others have doubted Bitcoin in the past, but are now interested in investing in Bitcoin. People's opinions can change, it is a natural phenomenon. There are also many who did not consider Bitcoin trustworthy in the past, but now they regret not investing in the past. Bitcoin has come a long way, the current ATH is $126k, but some people still doubt Bitcoin, in fact I do not see any reason to doubt it. Bitcoin has proven that long-term investment can be expected to yield profits, it has been in the market for a long time, yet some people will still doubt, some people will doubt even after a few more years. Those who doubt lack knowledge, so they should gain proper knowledge about Bitcoin and look at history.

Early skepticism around Bitcoin was not a failure of intelligence but a reflection of uncertainty. At that time Bitcoin challenged everything people understood about money trust and authority. A digital asset with no physical form no central issuer and no long history naturally felt fragile. Most people judge value through familiarity and Bitcoin had none. Disbelief was the default reaction and that response was reasonable given the context of that era.

Confidence did not arrive because people suddenly understood the technology. It arrived because price action and adoption reduced fear. When Bitcoin survived multiple crashes bans and public criticism it proved resilience. Each cycle filtered out doubt and attracted new believers not because of ideology but because survival itself is persuasive. Many who entered early still failed to hold because conviction grows slower than price. Belief is easy in hindsight but difficult in uncertainty.

[Asiska02]

This same person that was having doubt on bitcoin is still the same person that now own a firm Strategy that accumulated and holding 671,268 BTC, setting records among public companies.
Michael Saylor is now one of the people that is advocating for bitcoin and promoting it.

It is not only Micheal Saylor, many of us have doubted bitcoin in the past and today we are now keen and part of the system. Bitcoin has now gotten to a level now that anyone still doubting it is just for something else and not because they can’t trust or afford to take part in it also. Bitcoin has proven times without number to be an asset of value now and overtime, so being a part of it is a progressive move in your financial growth in life.

If you are still doubting you are alone and those forming a team with you when it comes to doubting bitcoin some of them may even be accumulating and holding bitcoin consistently.  

That’s one thing about humans that always doubt bitcoin publicly, you may be deceived into thinking they’re not active holders of the cryptocurrency, but privately, they’re also stacking some of them in order not to be left out. Some people are publicly disregarding bitcoin for popularity and not because they don’t have an investment in it, so you’ve to be careful whom you believe online and also do the needful while the sun still shines.

[Oshio-man]

That is how some people will be deceive not to invest in bitcoin or show interest in bitcoin but they will later discover the same person that condemned bitcoin to other people not to show interest he will be the one showcasing his bitcoin income  public, even though bitcoin is going to disappear in the future, it doesn't mean people shouldn't have knowledge of bitcoin because they can apply that knowledge to other coins that will be favouring other investors, i don't doubt bitcoin and nothing will make me doubt bitcoin at this time because this  is bearish season some bitcoiners are waiting to use the opportunity to accumulate bitcoin for future purpose.

[Mpamaegbu]

I saw something online and it was a statement by From Michael Saylor, i never believed he once had doubt on bitcoin.

The best way to quiet critics is to succeed. Yes, he was very outspoken of his doubt about Bitcoin then but immediately he became well-informed, he didn't hesitate to be public about his support for Bitcoin. Definitely, there are lots of them who were skeptical about Bitcoin in the past like Saylor too but who've now realized that Bitcoin is an asset, yet they aren't coming public about that. I strongly suspect that Warren Buffet is one of such people. Pride won't allow some of them eat their words in admittance that they were wrong.

Again, there will be those who won't ever believe in Bitcoin, whether now or later in life. Everybody mustn't accept the same thing. That's a fact of life.

[Outhue]

People will always look at Bitcoin differently, even those who are investing big money on Bitcoin today are once against Bitcoin.

There will always be those who will keep hating Bitcoin.
There will always be those who will keep doubting Bitcoin, till now some people still believe that Bitcoin is up to no good, some people believe that in the end Bitcoin will still burst like a bubble.
Some people still also believe that Bitcoin is only good for criminals, we have discussed about this many times on the forum but offline many see no need why Bitcoin existed and they don't want to know, because to them Fiat existed and Bitcoin shouldn't as they can't find any reasons to why it existed in the first place.

Everyone in the world will always have different opinions about Bitcoin, so many people are fine been monitored by their authority and they don't care about escaping inflation either.

I agree with your point. Bitcoin skepticism tends to reach a higher volume during bear markets, and such panic tends to betray inexperienced investors. Funny enough, the same individuals are the loudest critics today but they are the same individuals that come around and demonstrate their Bitcoin gains when the market becomes bullish. The problematic aspects of Bitcoin might arise in future, but it is worth knowing anyway as the acquired knowledge can be used in the wider world of crypto markets. Bearish periods will not be a cause to doubt because it is an opportunity to accumulate to long term believers. Patience and conviction have been known to pay off to those who remain positive even where there is temporary pessimism.

[B-BossMan]

At times some of the old statements that were made by all these influential people about Bitcoin views in the future often seem confusing in the cryptocurrency space. There are many people today that look back and regret not investing in Bitcoin earlier, most especially when considering its huge rises in value since its initiation. People who hung back or waited too long before investing are finding themselves missing out on big and important financial opportunities, which makes some feel disturbed. The volatility nature of Bitcoin seems discouraging to them those days, since the Bitcoin markets can fluctuate at any time, and it looks uncertain to them in the future. However, some of them can sometimes be exaggerating so that one can feel weakened. So as it is now, don't follow or believe their statement online, they have accumulated lots of Bitcoin already.

I provably agree on this since same with us before we have this doubt if Bitcoin will continue to pump or to last for many decades. This is normal thinking especially that new people have limited knowledge on Bitcoin.

Even today even if we say that people already have idea on Bitcoin still skepticism still there, because Bitcoin is volatile and many still got afraid that they might going to lose their money especially if there's sudden dump happens.

What's important about doubter is they are still following Bitcoin and maybe trying to invest again. For sure in future they would learn that all of those fuds are nonsense matters and continue to do their thing on Bitcoin especially for deciding to go long term investment on this coin.

[Kelward]

Many of us were like Michael Saylor, back them when we didn't know what will become of it in the future but fast forward to this day we are here now as bitcoiners holding and promoting it. Bitcoin has broken the barriers of failure, it has made rich a lot of holders that held on to theirs when many of us were still doubting and that is why we don't want to miss this second chance of hodling it to also become rich in the future. Anybody that is still doubtful about the potentials of Bitcoin as a store of value today is telling themselves a big lie. In the future those that are still skeptical today will regret when they see us and whales like Michael Saylor, making massive profit from our holdings.

[Achalugo BTC]

People are still doubting Bitcoin, and they always will. Dig up enough old posts and you'll find almost everyone had at least one "well that's probably dead" moment back when the space was smaller.

Even now, there are still people who doubt the capability of Bitcoin, which some believe its another form of scamming people, even though you try to make them to see reason with you.
They still don't want to believe in Bitcoin and this set of people are the ones spreading false rumor of Bitcoin, which they haven't use before.
That is why its consider to know that not everyone will be a partaker of Bitcoin, because they don't want to do anything with an online stuff, especially the old ones.

The regret narrative is powerful but pointless. Bitcoin is still early for its global store-of-value role the people feeling disturbed now will feel worse in another five years if they stay on the sidelines the key is to make a plan you can stick with, ignoring both the hype and the fear from conflicting voices.

The best thing that can be said, in my opinion, for this situation is: "Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today".

With BTC, it will speak volumes in the years to come.

[The Cryptovator]

I will not blame others; rather, I will blame myself. At the beginning when Bitcoin was so cheap, around only 700 USD, I doubted Bitcoin. I wonder why this currency is volatile; likely it will dump more, and I will lose my funds. Yes, day by day I learn Bitcoin and enter this universe, but till then the price was approx $3K. However, then start trading Bitcoin and hold as well and take advantage of the volatility.

It's the same; if someone still doubts Bitcoin, then they have to regret it later. A lot of people are making money from Bitcoin, either holding or trading, and worldwide institutional investors are entering into Bitcoin. Because they realise the potentiality of the Bitcoin, even though they had doubts before, but now they are investors and have become Bitcoin fans as well. But the reality is, a few people still doubt Bitcoin and are against Bitcoin as well. We can't change their mind unless they change their mind themselves.

It shows how conviction usually comes after exposure not before. Most people don’t reject Bitcoin because they studied it deeply and found it lacking. They reject it because uncertainty feels uncomfortable and volatility looks like danger when you don’t yet understand the rules of the game. Hindsight makes early prices look obvious but at the time nothing felt guaranteed. Doubt is not always ignorance it’s often fear of being wrong. Bitcoin challenged how money was supposed to work so skepticism was almost a natural reaction. The people who benefited early were not necessarily smarter they were simply more willing to sit with uncertainty longer. That difference matters a lot in asymmetric opportunities like Bitcoin.

What’s interesting is that institutions followed the same emotional cycle just on a larger scale. First denial then criticism then cautious observation and finally participation. The shift didn’t happen because Bitcoin changed its nature but because time reduced uncertainty. Once survival was proven potential became easier to accept.

When Bitcoin was first developed, it was natural for people to be skeptical at first. But gradually, when it gained influence among people and was considered true and played a huge role online and played a significant role in transactions, its influence gradually spread to different countries. And gradually, as people progressed, people started accepting Bitcoin as a holding, and at present, Bitcoin is playing the biggest role and people have given it a place at the highest level of trust. In this case, Michael Saylor is at the top of popularity by holding the highest Bitcoin among public companies.

I think it has nothing to do with knowledge; if someone still acts like they doubt Bitcoin, it could be ego or stubbornness, because it's not possible for one to know that Bitcoin has touched $126k and still believe that it is useless or it isn't trustworthy enough for investments. It's true that people had their doubts in the past, but that was when Bitcoin was down, mostly during the bear market after Bitcoi went down from $69k, haters started spreading rumors and FUD that Bitcoin is going to die now, and it is not going to go up anymore when it reached below $20k, and so many people got scared and doubtful.

However, as soon as Bitcoin started recovering, people knew those who spread rumors were only playing with their emotions and weren't saying anything truthful, and those who believed those rumors and got scared and didn't invest at that time started regretting their decision as soon as Bitcoin crossed $50k, because then they knew they have missed the train, but even if they had invested when it was at $50k, they could still get good profits, but most of them were scared that they might become the exit liquidity for others who had entered earlier.

Knowledge and ego are tied together. Someone can know the price history but still dismiss it because it challenges their identity or beliefs. The FUD during bear markets is emotional warfare the recovery is the truth telling by the time they believe, they've often missed the big move, which just feeds the cycle.

The people who doubting it are the people who have taken firm stance to hate bitcoin and they just can't find the good in bitcoin.
Even saylor changes his opinion and on the side of bitcoin, moreover there are tons of instutitional investors tokenizing their asset as we are speaking and many of them bought bitcoin to diversify.

Doubting on bitcoin in 2025 seems like the biggest fumble anyone can have, even worse if they hold on to fiat where value just keep going down. I guess some people are fated to be on the wrong side of history.

I think online gambling is different from bitcoin trading because trading is based on analysis and strategy. People trade in btc and many also invest in it. They want to hold bitcoin for future because they plan to invest more money over time.

We often see statement from Saylor who is  famous person. He share his views publicly and this attracts people attention because he has large investment in btc. Bitcoin is beneficial for million of people because they have gained information about it and understand market. Big investor enter market when bitcoin is at low price. Sometimes they create hype and sell later as that is best time for them to sell at higher prices.
