Bitcoin can be yours if you can afford to buy or earn it. Otherwise, how will Bitcoin be for you? There's nothing free in the world; you have to accumulate Bitcoin somehow before you can claim it as yours. So, being financially stable is one of the most important requirements to claim Bitcoin as yours. Your wallet should have Bitcoin, regardless of how you accumulated it.

As long as Bitcoin is in our wallet, it belongs to us. Of course, anyone who doesn't own Bitcoin can adopt the Bitcoin mentality. But transacting with Bitcoin and having Bitcoin in your wallet really means that Bitcoin is ours.

I hope everyone will own and adopt Bitcoin to a greater or lesser extent. Otherwise, it will be too late for many people.

This statement is true and I agree with you, any Bitcoin on your wallet is yours and by accepting Bitcoin in your mind even when you can't afford tobuy it I think the person is half way owning Bitcoin because once the funds is there I don't think such person will not own Bitcoin because the reason is already stated in his mind as to why purchasing Bitcoin is necessary. Bitcoin was created to solve the financial stress of everyone and to end the control of governments in the finances of her citizens so on this ground I think it's possible for everyone to own Bitcoin because the solves the problem of everyone.

Not Your Keys, Not Your Bitcoin

Accept bitcoin before it can be yours. Grin

People can decide something for their selfs whether good or bad, first of all we all have rights to do what so ever we want to do as long as it does not harm the next door neighbor but in my country the government has done what will harm the next door neighbor's.
On Bitcointalk I have seen topics that say Bitcoin is not for everyone maybe that thought is based on their own opinions, but I totally diagree with it, if I may ask who will see something good and reject it? No body, even if some people rejected it, it might be because of the laws from the higher authorities like government or military.
Bitcoin is for everybody, but we all have to accept it before it can be ours so I conclude that we must first accept bitcoin before we can have access to it and if you don't accept bitcoin you can't invest on it.

At the bolded colour red is individualized, you know they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder which means that a man will always loves where his heart goes even when others feel otherwise, that is what bitcoin is to everyone. You know it, you understand it and that is what makes you value it but will others feel the same thing? NO! Not everyone will like bitcoin, didn't you see that even in this forum, many well exposed users of bitcoin don't like USDT, they don't and even tomorrow, they will always choose bitcoin over other alternative coins, so not everyone think bitcoin is special.

There is a mixed reaction when bitcoin acceptance pop up especially when it has something to do with the government. The rules of any country are set by the legislators and if you don't want to be fined by Judiciary, you have to follow every step of the legislators, and as such, when something is term as illegal, we can't help it but follow the laws of the country, nobody is above the law and that is why people don't overstep on government. If bitcoin is not allowed in a particular jurisdiction, no need to force it, period! Perhaps, over time, change in government will see it differently.

Bitcoin is for everyone who want to use but there's a problem with it even you want to use the bitcoin there's a factor that this can be prevented for example the government they restrict the use of the crypto if you disobey this sure there's a hard punishment so are you willing to risk your freedom on it or not. Also many people saying Bitcoin or crypto is can be use for the salary because it's transparent and sufficient but the problem is the market volatility are you willing to risk your salary to survive for your daily sustain for possible loss due to market movement? I guess no. It's good for everyone but not for everyone.

Perhaps, it was wrong saying it was for everyone as we can't deny that many had seen Bitcoin as a scam thing and so they rejected it. Thinking in this scenario, only those who have seen Bitcoin good would accept it but seeing a lot of people never see it like this, it was too hard to convince and change their minds. So, therefore, this would happen - Everyone has the chance to have Bitcoin but can't expect them all because it was hard to please everyone to understand how this work especially if you already have a bad experience from it.

Bitcoin was created for everyone but it isn't everyone that will accept it based on ignorant or government policy. Some accepts it but don't have money to invest in it. That is why the word bitcoin is not for everyone because before it can be for everyone,it means that everyone must have bitcoin.

You can't say that bitcoin is for everyone when it is not everybody that is holding bitcoin. It is another thing to have heard about bitcoin and another thing to adopt it. Some people keep on procrastinating to buy bitcoin since last year when the price of bitcoin was 16k and up till now they haven't bought any one,bitcoin is not for such people. Bitcoin is not fiat that one can't do without,that is why the ignoramus will not adopt it because they feel it is not worth it and they can do without it.

Literally speaking, anyone can send any amount of Bitcoin to our bitcoin wallet address even without knowing it. The transaction is permissionless on the side of the sender to be able to send an amount to the receiver so the wallet of the receiver automatically received the sent BTC even without the knowledge of the owner of the receiving address.

This simply means that in terms of the literal transaction, there is no need for the owner of the receiving wallet address to accept the transaction before the sent BTC becomes his.

In terms of adoption, merchants need to accept BTC to be accredited as a mode of payment or else the sender will only be wasting his money sending BTC when it is not recognized by the merchant as payment.

@OP, The idea of someone saying that Bitcoin is not for everybody may really be because of the bad perception that some people have about Bitcoin, but that statement doesn't necessarily mean or state that Bitcoin is not for everyone. Of course, it is for everyone, but specifically for those who understand the values of it, for those who realise how cool Bitcoin investment can be, and for those who want to be in charge of their financial control, because Satoshi's idea of creating Bitcoin was for the common man and woman to be able to have their own financial management under their control in a decentralised and digital way, so that those financial elites wouldn't really be in charge of how we spend our money all the time.

In the bank today, there's some kind of huge amount of withdrawal you will want to pull out of your account, and your account officer will call in to ask you what you really want to do with the money, but with one's money in Bitcoin, no one will have to quarry you for how much you are withdrawing or depositing. So, it's sometimes said that Bitcoin is not for everyone, but for those who realise all those quality features of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is borderless, this is an already established fact which i think every one agrees to, but i think you completely misunderstood those who said that Bitcoin is not for everyone, i am not one of those who said that bitcoin is not for everyone, but by understanding what they meant by that statement, i completely agree that Bitcoin is not for everyone..

Let me explain, I already mentioned before that Bitcoin is borderless, which means bitcoin is open to everybody all around the world , Now, when some people say that bitcoin is not for everyone, they do not mean Bitcoin in its acceptability or in its adoption, of course Bitcoin is open and available for anyone interested to adopt , But when it comes to investing in bitcoin, its not for everyone, those who are investing in bitcoin have to have the balls to buy and hold, else, that person will just chicken out due to how volatile the price of bitcoin is, such person can chicken out and sell too early out of fear, in the end, you discover that investing in bitcoin is not for such type of people, this is what i believe when i read people say that bitcoin is not for everyone.

I agree with your argument about "Bitcoin for everyone", but looking at the current reality is not about how Bitcoin functions fully, but what will actually be realized with Bitcoin.

Governments that are pro-Bitcoin might provide looser regulations on Bitcoin or crypto, but for governments that are completely against Bitcoin, there will be no room at all for Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is for everyone, but Bitcoin cannot be used by everyone. Accepting Bitcoin adoption in the first place will not be easy.
Remember that every government's regulations are different, they need to research first by making adjustments to their economic area.

Bitcoin is not for everybody because it is not compulsory to use it as a form of payment. Before now trade by barter was the main medium of buying and selling of goods. Then it was compulsory because it was the only way you engage in trade. Fiat currency was introduced and barter became obsolete. Now everybody must use fiat to buy and sell. Until bitcoin becomes a generally acceptable currency, it is not compulsory to use it. And if it is not mandatory to use it, it is not for everybody. We don't know what the future holds, but the world may move to an era when fiat might become obsolete and the only option might be cryptocurrencies. At this time, Bitcoin will not still be for everybody because there are other cryptos. Bitcoin will be for everybody only if it is the only currency.

There are many countries where governments have not put complete ban on its usage but still do all the population use it? It's not about fear from the government only as there are many reasons like people who don't have access to internet and are not aware about it or say those who have been victims of some crypto scam fear to invest in it so there are lot of reasons.But yes Bitcoin is open to all but it depends on how you use it or is it available to all?

as per avikz, I agree also the Bitcoin isnt for everyone.

The OP is taking the literal meaning of "Bitcoin is not for everyone" and disagreeing with
it and its right to say literally Bitcoin is there for everyone but the reality is not everyone has
the capabilities to buy and sell Bitcoin by either private of KYC means and secure it properly,
some people are technically challenged, some people would just prefer for someone else
to do the necessary for them much the same as buying Gold, they dont actually have custody
of the Gold, just a piece of paper to say they own it but someone else is storing it for them.

Thats where the saying "Bitcoin is not for everyone" is applied and means to reflect.

Let's face the reality - Bitcoin is not for everyone! It requires a certain amount of technical or computing knowledge before anyone can begin using bitcoin.

It is an open gate for everyone to access. Technical or computing knowledge or whatsoever knowledge, if you want to learn to access it, you can do it like some people don't touch Internet, smartphone but it is not responsible of Internet or smartphone to access those people. It is hard or easy, accessible or inaccessible, depends on those people.

Quote from: GreatArkansas on August 07, 2023, 08:38:56 PM

OP is right, Bitcoin can be used by anyone, that's how Bitcoin was created, to become decentralized and can be used by anyone in this world.
Before you can accept it and access it, it is also better to have a basic and proper understanding of what is Bitcoin, how it works, what is good effects of using Bitcoin, etc.

If they want, they can start to learn today and practice with Bitcoin testnet today by claiming Bitcoin testnet from Testnet faucets.

Bitcoin holds something positive in it, for that reason the majority of people in parts of the world accept Bitcoin as an inseparable part of their lives. For me Bitcoin has become a necessity, Bitcoin has had a positive impact on my life. Since getting to know Bitcoin, I have received several benefits that I have never gotten in fiat money, ease of transactions in buying and selling goods and services and increasing the economy from the profits I get from investments.

People who deny the presence of Bitcoin in their lives are too naive in assessing Bitcoin, they know Bitcoin usually gives them unlimited profits, but they think Bitcoin is not in the same playing field as the stock market or institutional investment. Although some people are still closed to Bitcoin, it does not mean that Bitcoin will collapse, Bitcoin will still stand tall and will reach a market capitalization of trillions of dollars in the future.

Let's face the reality - Bitcoin is not for everyone! It requires a certain amount of technical or computing knowledge before anyone can begin using bitcoin. The world of centralized wallets and exchanges are built on this exact inconvenience. So Bitcoin is not for everyone in its rawest form. Regardless of whether people accept it or not.

Bitcoin needs a learning period before anyone can begin using it with ease. In my opinion, Bitcoin has become an investment asset more than a currency system and it's very inconvenient to use for the nubes.

If anyone has decided to accept bitcoin he/ she also have interests to invest on it also, investing is easy for investors is just to have a basic information about it and then carry on with the investment plans, if anybody love some thing with all his hart nothing can stop the person from get it except death so if anybody love bitcoin that means he or she can do their own research about bitcoin then understand how it works and join the crypto world by their selfs.

not only accepting but also using , because it is indeed correct that accepting/purchasing means we will owned some , but that is not the main purpose , instead we must help circulating this.

from that bitcoin will have strong power , and will also serve us the way we wanted this.

Even though Im agreeing with some of what you're saying, there's also the need to underline the basics of why Bitcoin isnt for everyone. Yes, there are some people who arent tech smart and so dont grasp cryptography.

To put it another way, its like handing a skateboard to a fish: some people just wont get it, no matter how much we Bitcoin aficionados might desire for everyone to get a piece of that crypto pie. The government stuff, on the other hand, is a complete mess. There are different norms and customs in that realm. Accept Bitcoin, dont accept Bitcoin; in the end, it comes down to what you and your next-door neighbor's dog are comfortable with.
