I'd be curious if Bitcoin Forum members can chime in on what the estimated awareness might be for their region or country:

https://news.bitcoin.com/survey-japanese-bitcoin/

a quote:
"A recent survey of 10,000 men and women across Japan shows that 88% of them have heard of bitcoin. Among those that have bitcoin, 47% said that they have used it in retail stores but long-term investment is most respondents’ main reason for purchasing bitcoin."

This is a good chance to earn more bitcoin and hold it because theres a lot of country especially japan already know about bitcoin and i think bitcoin price will going increase more in the next year or in the future.

I would like to propose a topic for that however in my opinion, there will be less number of people here in my country that knows about Bitcoin because of misconceptions, not that kind of mainstream here, and they aren't used to using cryptocurrency.

Same is the case in my country in Pakistan few people know about bitcoin because of lack of information spreading, and maybe if a proper information is given to the people then there will be more investor who will invest and there are many people who afford this coin to buy, government here is showing serious interest to adopt bitcoin because they are well aware of the benefits and earning of the mighty bitcoin.

In our country, only 20% have heard of bitcoin. The people who used it may not be 3%.. I think the development potential of bitcoin in our country is huge. We should follow the pace of the Japanese

Thank you for +Merit

When people talk about 88% in Japan, they probably do not mean children and pensioners. Here they wrote a couple of comments about Russia about 5% and about 20%. This is incorrect information. Speaking of Russia, I think about 60% have heard about bitcoin, they have been talking a lot about bitcoin on TV since August of this year. But only 2% understand what it is.

To be honest I have no idea what is the exact percentage and there is no available information in the internet about Filipino engagement in Bitcoin. If we going to use social media as basis, I think there is highly probable but not absolute conclusion that will arise. Since in our generation, all things are deals with technology and everything revolves in the virtual world. There are lots of pages and groups created on social media; which promotes electronic banking and ways how to earn free or investment. In this way, I think Filipinos are not new about the system of electronic banking. Many Filipinos have idea and heard about bitcoin through the help of social media

In my own opinion, there are lots of Filipinos have heard what bitcoin is. If we going to use social media as our basis. There are lots of facebook pages and groups created; which promotes cryptocurrency or electronic banking. In this way many Filipino got engage with it and give some ways or tips how to earn it without spending too much of time.

I think here in my country, bitcoin is not yet popular and many people don't know what is bitcoin.

I conducted my own little survey in my work to have data and to know how popular the bitcoin here in my work place.

Question in the survey: Do you know what is bitcoin ?

Result of the survey:

Out of 20 people that I asked only 5 people knows what is bitcoin, while the others doesn't know what is bitcoin at all.

The data shows that many of my co-worker don't know what is bitcoin. only fewer people who have knowledge in bitcoin.

According to my observations in my country a lot of people have heard about bitcoin. But few people are connected with the world of cryptocurrencies and many have distorted ideas about it

There is a big difference between,
- > Knowing about bitcoins.
- > Holding Bitcoins
- > Technical understanding of bitcoins.

All that really matters to me is,how much % of those 80 do actually understand the technicality of bitcoins ? I'm pretty sure they don't.Traders,exchanges,don' count either.I have got lods of people around me who have trading wallets installed in their phones but don't know jack about working of bitcoins.

I think Japan is a developed country in terms of economy and japan is now the largest bitcoin market in the world.
Up to 80% of japanese people have heard of bitcoin, it proves that Japanese enthusiasm for crypto currency is very high.
because of the high bitcoin value makes bitcoin more popular in the world and many people in my country have heard or know about bitcoin compared to last year.
I think about 55% of people in my country have heard of bitcoin, they know from a news that bitcoin is a very popular digital currency with sharply increased value.

Thats great that 88% of japanese people know about about bitcoin cause my country is a devolping country so out here the percentage of people knowing about bitcoin is very less and i am shocked that even most of the literate people dont know what bitcoin is ,so yeah i think bitcoin should advertist more about it and stuff .so yeah out here it not that great going as it can go

Well I think that this percentage is overestimated, and if it is real it is due to the fact that their country actually supports bitcoin so they may have heard about it in multiple ocaisons where it has been mentioned in the media, the number of people who have heard of bitcoin might be high but the actual number of people who use it is probably much more less than that, and that is due to people not being able to find ways to earn it, in general I think that the number of people that know about bitcoin in a country is tied to the government whether it support it or not and tied to whether the media was able to cover it or not, and also tied to how much the society uses internet because if they use internet they may already have heard of it.

In my country that is India which is asian territory, lacks the base of crypto investors. Meaning there are not much people who know about the bitcoin and there wont be much real soon. Where we struggle for the education, electricity, water etc etc there is really scarcity of the bitcoin knowledge in our world. We will be struggling for this one for long period of time. Im not sure about the percentage of the bitcoin holders or people who know about it in my country but thats going to be less than 25% of the whole population. Couldn’t even imagine there are so many people and still we lack the confidence into the bitcoin reality or presence. Anyway those people who are already into bitcoin in my country are doing great but looked at them as they are suspicious people doing unusual activity. Lol. Help this will all change soon. :-)

Well Japanese people will be known bitcoin because of their fast technologies. They are what we are expected to the one of the biggest contributors and gives so much support on bitcoin. For me living in a Developing Country, the amount of people that are using and working at bitcoin forum is about 40-55%. I don't know if it's a small amount of people or a lot. Our population is really big so maybe it is a big number also.

In my country I will call the population of people who have heard about bitcoins to be less than even 10% because it's not a well known phenomenon at all in my country, I think it will be a while before the popularity of bitcoins soars and I think it will be late for a lot of investors then.

Although i do not know how true it is, i read recently in a post that there was still over 170million Nigerians who are still oblivious to bitcoin and the likes of it. Albeit there is a slow increase in awareness on a daily basis

It's not surprising if Japan has this high percentage of learning when it comes to bitcoin because they are one of those countries who gives so much support in bitcoin. In my country I think its around 10% has heard bitcoin but only 5% uses it because even if there are many news about bitcoin people are still in doubt that this is a good currency and that this is a legal thing
