Are people still doubting Bitcoin.

[Hispo]

It does not matter whether we talk about cryptocurrency, economics, politics or even religion. the topic does not actually matter, there will be always skeptical people and that is okey. The actual problem comes when there are haters who are stubborn and are not willing to give credit when credit is due and recognize the value of Bitcoin as an asset and decentralized network to push payments around the world. Bitcoin could be literally adopted by the government of the USA as a dual official currency and still there will be people who will doubt about Bitcoin and how reliable it is in the long term.

All we can do is live with criticism and separate toxic criticism from constructive criticism which helps us to growth and become better people and improve our finances.

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.

Usually people who go by Saylor or any other entity that can be seen as a KOLer in any eco don't dig deep enough to understand everything themselves.. they just follow the flow and when it doesn't go their way, they don't know what to think or what to do.

I don't get it. What is the fate of online gambling back in 2013? Online gambling gained huge popularity in the last 12 years. Bitcoin also gained huge popularity and mainstream adoption in the last 12 years. Maybe Saylor thought that both Bitcoin and online gambling are doomed to fail back in 2013? Did he expect Bitcoin and online gambling to face a global ban at that time? This tweet seems to be out of context.
There will always be people, who have doubts about Bitcoin. I still have doubts about the long term future of Bitcoin. Having doubts is something good. Being a blind optimist is delusional.

Indeed, Bitcoin's short-term potential is undeniable, but in the long term, over the next 20 or 30 years, who can guarantee Bitcoin's future? Can anyone guarantee that a new technology better than Bitcoin will never emerge? Or can anyone guarantee that the government will never reverse its regulations and change its stance on bitcoin?

Like everything else, bitcoin is not immortal and also carries risks. Therefore, regardless of its potential, a skeptical attitude is necessary to keep a clear head and avoid falling into blind optimism. Skepticism doesn't mean we deny the potential of Bitcoin. It helps us see reality and prepare for unexpected situations because anything can happen.

Yep, he changed camps and used the tools he had to create what we see now.

I agree about the doubts - after all, anything is flawed to a degree, and by speaking out about it, we may change the course we are walking.

It's okay to ask genuine questions if they are truly relevant.

When I first heard about bitcoin, I thought it was some kind of nonsense, and the person who was telling me about it at the time was an 18-year-old guy who looked like a grown-up kid who had spent too much time playing computer games. He seemed to me completely disconnected from real life. But now I definitely don’t think that way anymore. And if back then, just out of curiosity, I had started to look into this topic myself, today I would certainly be in a much better financial position. We often criticize and doubt things that don’t look harmonious or clear to us, especially when they raise too many questions. But if you look at any other investment option, there are always potential risks as well. And if you don’t take risks, you won’t move forward from where you are.

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

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.
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.  

Jamie Dimon as CEO of JP Morgan also once doubted Bitcoin and even mocked it. But now he regrets all his statements about Bitcoin (Source). And now he is rumored to be allowing crypto trading for their clients as a form of support (Source). I personally think that people who have thought badly about Bitcoin will regret it. They were initially just detractors who said things they didn't know about. Once they start to learn about or even do a lot of research on Bitcoin, they will begin to understand how good Bitcoin is. And that will make them take back their words. I will never take someone's bad words about Bitcoin seriously. They are just people who don't have any knowledge about it. I personally will provoke them with some of my statements about Bitcoin. And try to compare Bitcoin over Fiat. That will usually open their minds. And they will usually start to change their perspective on Bitcoin or even change it completely. So we don't need to hate these people. We also don't need to take them too seriously, where itmeans they just need an introduction to Bitcoin. After that we wish they start thinking and even learning more.

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.

Do you call it deceive, I think i rather call it ignorance, as a human you're not meant to believe everything people tell you, a serious person that want to invest in Bitcoin will not easily be redirected on their decisions to invest, for a potential investor that has set his mind on how to achieve his Bitcoin investment goals, listening to any distraction has nothing to do with him or her rather there concentration will be more on ways to get a steady work that will generate a steady income for him or her to make his Bitcoin investment goals a reality.
What am trying to say, I mean some people are been deceived because they concentrate on few source to get information or they don't even make their own research personally, at this point I don't think anyone can talk into some shit that will make me begin to have negative mind in Bitcoin, I gone past that stage, Bitcoin is a good asset, the best and the most trusted digital asset that has the capacity of doing the unimaginable in the future.

I mean there are always people that is going to doubt Bitcoin just because they just dont have enough knowledge about it, they dont know what Bitcoin is, they dont buy or sell Bitcoin, or probably they just can't access or doesnt have any kind of access on Bitcoin like people that is leaving on mountains where technology is not really a thing, I mean there are a lot of province here in my country where cryptocurrency or Bitcoin still is not exist or not a thing, some old people don't even have any idea what is Bitcoin so for sure there are going to be doubts, even my parents have doubts when they here this Bitcoin thing, mostly they just here about it on news, which is mostly related to illegal things like money laundering that is why it has a bad image for some people.

Market price is most of traders is going to have doubts about it, i mean if you just see Bitcoin for example, from 126k$ we see a huge hype if it drop to less than 5k$ some people or investors are surely going to have some doubts on it, and its normal since the market is just mostly greed or fear.

This could also just be some manipulation to some extent, social media can easily be manipulated by influential people they like to put fear on investors to drop the market so that they could easily buy back in a much lower market price.

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.  

It is normal because those who had doubts about Bitcoin said so many things about it, but in the end, they will still be the ones to accumulate Bitcoin consistently.

This is one of the reasons whenever I come across people who are doubting Bitcoin, I don't take them seriously because a time will come when they will have a better understanding and also preach to others that it is good to invest in Bitcoin. Most of the people who are investing in Bitcoin today were once against it, so I don't see any need to take people like this seriously.

[CryptSafe]

Of course, they still exist—they are simply people who are not brave enough to start investing here. That’s fine, as long as they don’t criticize those of us who believe that Bitcoin is a real financial asset that will bring a better economy in the future. In the end, they will see that investments grow more in Bitcoin.

People who don't like investing in Bitcoin usually won't be on this forum, and even if they do, it's probably only for a short time before they leave without ever returning. Regarding people who dislike Bitcoin and Bitcoin investing, that's perfectly normal, as everyone has their own preferences and perspectives on how they view assets. Therefore, no one should force others to like Bitcoin or invest in Bitcoin, as these are personal choices. Each decision should be based on their own personal choices, without the interference of others.

This platform, as we can see, is mainly for bitcoin and crypto purposes, so none crypto enthusiast can not be able to flow here as it would be very difficult for them to flow in a line and system they have no knowledge about so they would see it as a waste of time and move on with other outside engagement and not bother about it anymore but if they are willing and open to learn, they could be able to stay and gain more knowledge about bitcoin. This can only be achieved once their mind is made up to learn, and believe me, a desperate one who is ready would definitely learn.

You can't talk good about something that you don't have good ideas about and that,was the fate of Michael saylor when this quote was credited to him. But after he got a better understanding of the concept of Bitcoin he changed his mind towards Bitcoin and this is still the problem of many today. Many who are still skeptical about Bitcoin is because they have not come to understanding of how Bitcoin works and the future use and potential that Bitcoin holds. This is the major reason why there are people who are still skeptical about Bitcoin but I know over time Bitcoin will become a universal currency that will be existing that anyone can make use of.

[Japinat]

It does not matter whether we talk about cryptocurrency, economics, politics or even religion. the topic does not actually matter, there will be always skeptical people and that is okey. The actual problem comes when there are haters who are stubborn and are not willing to give credit when credit is due and recognize the value of Bitcoin as an asset and decentralized network to push payments around the world. Bitcoin could be literally adopted by the government of the USA as a dual official currency and still there will be people who will doubt about Bitcoin and how reliable it is in the long term.

All we can do is live with criticism and separate toxic criticism from constructive criticism which helps us to growth and become better people and improve our finances.

Those are actually the biggest enemies of bitcoin community, when they won't recognized the credits of bitcoin when it should be recognizable. However, there are times when those haters and highly skeptical about bitcoin have turned into real fanatics years after, that only proves that changes are always possible. Anyone who has positive outlook this time might have the different outlook after couple of years, and most of them turned into not just small or average investors, but end up becoming the big whales in the market, far from our expectations.

I guess no matter how the number of bitcoin believers have grown, there will always be skeptics that will continue to attack bitcoin secretly regardless of their personal reasons. And that is okay as even fiat cannot please everyone, how much more for bitcoin wherein its value is always questionable due to its high volatility and uncertainty in the market.

But the good thing is, not all bitcoin doubters have remained the same all throughout the years, there are quite good number of them who have managed to correct their mindset about bitcoin and they become more positive about it now that they have realized the high potentials of bitcoin.
