Topic: Bitcoin adoption: Don't just sit down, do something - page 9. (Read 1247 times)
Bitcoin is already spread in all countries but still it is not consider as money and some people do not approved it. We need to do something in order to see a massive adoption of bitcoin and if we want to happen it we should all information about it and tell to them that it is a new form money that can be used in different kind of transaction. But, the most effective way to see massive adoption is to use all kind of social media.
Some of us think bitcoin is a way to get rich quick. To get financial freedom without utilizing the cryptocurrencies. It is a sad fact that bitcoin adoption is slowed down by that kind of perception. People are interested in their own profit instead of looking for a bigger picture.
We all want bitcoin to be globally adopted right, you want to be able to use your bitcoin as a currency to buy foodstuffs, goods or service in your local community then what are you doing to encourage that? No one here can tell me that he/she hasn't sold anything before, so you have no excuse of not accepting bitcoin in exchange for what you sold be it your books, gadget or anything salable expect you never knew of bitcoin then.
I walked into my barbers shop yesterday then notice something was different (i took a closer look at what was printed on the A4 paper pasted on the notice board and it reads "We now accept Bitcoin & ETH as payment options" it went on to explain that ETH will be accepted for the $2 and below fees and bitcoin accepted for fees above that. It gave me joy because I was the one who introduced him to bitcoin few years back. As an act of encouragement I have promise to promote his business both online and in popular blockchain related gathering I attend.
Few of my previously sold gadget monetary value were received in cryptocurrency and i have come to realize if we want the world to take us seriously we have to act ourselves so I'm encouraging the service providers and others we have on forum to start accepting bitcoin, charity begins at home.
Inspiring indeed. I myself is still trying to sell my stuff for BTC on a social media. But sadly, when they ask how much was the price and when I said the amount in bitcoin, they all went asking, "Huh, what is BTC?"

Reading this OP convinced me to never give up. Staying positive even in this bear seasons.
jes run around like the witness jehovas, and tell everyone to earn the bitcoins of the miners,
whoever is doing that for free is an idiot.

Well i think that is a good idea.A lot of investors who have little shops, or little businesses , like the man with a barber shop can accept the payment in BTC and and let other people know about the existence of this coin and make Bitcoin useful in everyday situations.
by marketing bitcoin to the public it will greatly help the spread and adoption, in the near term I will make a service business,and I am ready to accept payments with bitcoin, at least that will give little help to bitcoin

As a user, I have a important task which is to influence the others to use and patronize cryptocurrencies. I have small business in my community and I know accept cryptocurrencies as a payment. My customers are now curious and some of them are now interested to use cryptocurrencies.

Sharing our knowledge to the other people about cryptocurrency is important. The mass adoption will not occur if we users will not help the people in our community to become aware to what it is cryptocurrencies. By influencing others, the community of the cryptocurrency will become more strong.

i have been encouraging everyone that i talk to and knows about bitcoin or shows interest to use it as a currency more often. and so far in all these years i have never introduced bitcoin as anything but a currency which they can buy stuff with online and offline. i even discourage people who talk about price and profit if they are new from seeing it as such.
but unfortunately the volatility have always changed the mindset of some people and there is not much we can do about it.
i still don't get why people try to use ETH as payment though!

Both ETH and BTC have huge fees from time to time and I can't in good faith recommend them to anyone.I walked into my barbers shop yesterday then notice something was different (i took a closer look at what was printed on the A4 paper pasted on the notice board and it reads "We now accept Bitcoin & ETH as payment options" it went on to explain that ETH will be accepted for the $2 and below fees and bitcoin accepted for fees above that.

I made the mistake of recommending BCH to merchants, but the hash war destroyed its stability, too.
It will take time to succeed. It stayed for a decade due to its technical excellence otherwise in this fast pace world product /invention become obsolete and replaced within a few years. Bitcoin will stay and go to mainstream but not too soon.
Most People are cynical of BTC and other just purchased as investment tool.
Media still make fun of pizza story terming as million dollar pizza's and with this attitude will you be able to convince anybody to spend bitcoins?

Unfortunately, those who have the means to act won't act since they are getting tons of benefits of keeping bitcoin on where it is right now. Let's face it, our collective individual efforts wouldn't get much if we only are spreading the word but not practicing what we preach, and also without the help of those with the $$$, our ideas will only remain ideas unless we put some more effort and money into it. Everyone can be as enthusiastic in getting the word out, but not everyone can make a drastic change in the current shape of the ecosystem.
Why would people throw negative comments against this act in promoting cryptocurrency to the masses. It’s hard to please everyone and doing the right thing for them only triggered they’re jealousy and ego. If I have the chance to spend bitcoin minimally in this kind of service within my country then I would love to.
Small acts will make a big difference if the community will support it.
mindset has changed, from pro pow, anti banks, towards anti pow, and anti banks
First of all its a true wonders that a barber shop which has not much banner for advertising them (since they have printed in a paper only) accepting bitcoin and ethereum,for now the fee is not a concern for small payments so we can encourage the retailers to make bitcoin as payment atleast in very few scale.
The community gets bigger and stronger not today but surely for someday.
Small act of accepting cryptocurrency will be a big thing in the future. Here in my place, you can transfer bitcoin to any wallet with the same system will not require you to pay any fees and you can transfer without any limit. We should really keep on doing this, so the market will grow and the price will increas too. The community gets bigger and stronger not today but surely for someday.

Having said that it means adoption is possible with the community we have we can do about it to spread good things about bitcoin technology on how it could change our live on daily basis. The necessity of involving social media we can provide greater spread over it and encourage everyone to take a good look on crypto currency.

I would love to encourage people to accept cryptos as a payment option, but if I try to do it, I will be arrested by Police because bitcoin or any other cryptos are notified illegal tender in my country. Can you do something about it? No!
Don't just blame the community! Try to know why they are not able to help in the adoption process! Majority of them are legally bound like me!
My friend, I beg to disagree. You know, Bitcoin is not really designed as if it is like our fiat currency, or an imitation of it. Yes, it is a currency but it is meant to be used as a peer-to-peer currency. You are not asked to make use of your Bitcoin in a registered or government-sanctioned business. Expect your government to intervene. But if you use Bitcoin the way it is designed, then I see no problem of success. The mere fact that you are into Bitcoin even if your country is considering it illegal means that you are free to sell or accept payment or render services in exchange of crypto on a peer-to-peer bases.

If we all want bitcoin to become massively adopted we have to start to use it to buy things in real world not just phones but in food sector as well and more so tell people about Crypto at any given opportunity we have.
interesting discussion, and I strongly agree and appreciate all of your actions that have supported the use of bitcoin. in my opinion for some bitcoin users who don't have such large assets, it will be very difficult to contribute directly, especially in this context of building a business with the acceptance feature of using bitcoin. maybe, the best alternative now is to participate in using bitcoin directly as a payment tool somewhere (available) both online and offline, so the bitcoin that we have is not only limited to trading tools, profit and exchanging it into fiat currency
