Bitcoin has two major issues to overcome. The first is the fraud. People have lost their life savings to places like BTC trader and PB mining et al. All of the ponzi schemes and outright thefts scare people away faster than any media spun story about Isis or child pornography being related to bit coin.

You are 100% correct. See what happened with the Mt Gox robbery. Some $500 million worth of coins and tens of millions of USD in cash were stolen. Tens of thousands of people lost their life savings, including some of the earliest adapters of Bitcoin. And the person who perpetrated that robbery is still living his life lavishly in 5-star hotels and casinos.

Secondly, we have utterly failed to educate the public on the advantages of bitcoin. We talk about bitcoin technology and how it is the "internet of money" but as a day to day thing people know very little about it and even less about how to actually use it. I place blame primarily on the bitcoin foundation for that. They are supposed to be our voice to the world but all they seem to do is enrich themselves and allow corrupt individuals to create some token credibility by selling them memberships.

The interest in Bitcoin is stagnant from exactly one year!
Just do a google trend research...
What would you think it is needend to comeback interest on Bitcoin???

Interest in bitcoin has grown for the past year. We cannot judge the interest in bitcoin by its price.

I was reading a review yesterday about bitcoin's "performance" last month:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/04-03-2015-looking-back-on-march-a-month-in-review-1011563
(Looking Back On March: A Month In Review)

There are encouraging news all around the world and they get brushed aside because price hasn't risen. I truly believe bitcoin could be successful at any price level, $200 or $800, as long as price is stable.

He isn't judging interest by price. He is judging by how many people search for it on Google.

I would put my money on Wall Street. The moment any of these investment funds starts operating and BTC start being traded on Nasdaq, you ll see interest going up big time.

Besides that, I see no other major event in immediate future.

Bitcoin is extremely undervalued right now. One of the reasons might be that the reputation of Bitcoin is tarnished beyond repair, due to various scandals such as Mt Gox, Silk Road, Silk Road 2.0, Sheep Marketplace.etc. Another reason might be an oversupply of coins. This might be caused by some thieves dumping huge amount of coins (can be the Mt Gox thief, or the SMP thief).

It is because most of bitcoin users are a dreamers who only wait for price to go 'to the moon' by itself. That is why we have only weak and inept business invigoration attempts which changes nothing really and our community reacts with panic after every little problem emerges.

i think this is just a part of bitcoin users..
i'm sure there are a lot of people who fight to decentralize world banks power.
i'm one of this kind of users :-)

then we can discuss about Bitcoin foundation bankrupt, who have spent a lot of money last years without introduce really innovation in bitcoin...

Bitcoin was in the news, and on the radio a lot. That's why people were searching it.
