A lot of things to consider why we can say that Bitcoin isn't a User-friendly.
-they know how to create online wallet?
-they know how to send and receive Bitcoin?
-they know how to keep the keys?
There's a lot of things we need to acquire first and these makes newcomers feels uneasy and think that Bitcoin is not a user-friendly. And much more it slowed the adoption when it was ban at their country.

It is true that Bitcoin is quite complicated for some people to understand, it took me a few months to understand Bitcoin.
Maybe because Bitcoin is a new technology, it will take time to understand it. No wonder the majority of the world's population
do not fully understand Bitcoin. Massive education and promotion is needed to make Bitcoin even more popular, so many people
want to learn Bitcoin, that way there will make more and more people who understand Bitcoin.
Maybe yes, if we want to learn about the details about bitcoin because when I learn to understand bitcoin, I only know about what is a wallet, how to send and receive the bitcoin, what wallet that I can use to store my bitcoin, what exchanges that I can use to trade. That's it, nothing more. But then, I learn more about bitcoin, read from many sources. Maybe education and promotion in every country are not growing fast, so people only know about bitcoin without understanding bitcoin.

I'm a bit confused about your perspective. Less tech knowledge and financial educated aren't the problems on Bitcoin only, but they are the problems for the digital space and the investment field as a whole. It happened for years and needs time to deal with them exactly. I really disagree once you make them as the reasons to slander Bitcoin.
Anyway, yes Bitcoin isn't for everyone. It is just for people who know its potential and believe in future investment.
In addition, I think investing in Bitcoin doesn't require a big amount of money. And nowadays, there are a lot of sources on the internet if you want to find out yourself about the information related to Bitcoin.

Learning about bitcoin couldn't be hard but can't be that fast. It takes so long to understand because we need to be careful then and need to fully understand it. If someone could make it in just a day, he was a genius person. That is why when talking about Bitcoin adoption, we can see it was very slow and it is because people don't make it harry. They'll need things to be secured first, in fact, this is not a competition that we need to win the race. If people don't find it easier and user-friendly it is because they don't want to learn it, they don't have the patience to understand it and obtain things slowly.Maybe because Bitcoin is a new technology, it will take time to understand it.

Yes, it might be Bitcoin is not that user friendly in a sense that not all are being able to understand it easily. But, if you are really interested and wanted to learn the basics just like how does it work, the real essence of its existence and how can you be capable to use it effectively, then you will push yourself through on getting into the path of better understanding it. The reason why people does not understand it barely because they are not pretty much interested on learning more about it for once they find that there are certain technicalities in here is they are starting to back off because their main concern is the money involve and not learning Bitcoin alone. Newbies that are starting to engage must always start up from learning the basics to be able to survive which means you are making yourself tough and avoiding to get fooled or caught into scams and hacks. Creating of wallet as well as learning how to transact and securing your account must be the essentials needed to be learned to better understand Bitcoin.
When something is very complete new idea then it will take time for mass adoption, I don't find using or transacting the cryptos are difficult but the security is more concerned.Newbies are not aware of how to keep their funds safe on a wallet and they don't even know the real difference between wallet and exchange. But it may become familiar in no time so people need to start using before blaming about the things so it will give a conclusion.
The same was said in the early days of the internet & look how that ended up. Give it time, mainstream adoption can happen very quickly. We will get to the promised land 100%.
OP is assuming that it's Bitcoin that has to change and become less complicated but maybe it's we that should adjust to it.
Bitcoin isn't too hard to comprehend if people in Africa with only middle school education can use it efficiently. There's a lot of third worlders who know how to send and receive coins. If it's hard for you maybe the problem lies in you.
You got the point which is actually true, Bitcoin shouldn't really be the one would adjust but rather it would really be on people whom the one on need to.Bitcoin isn't too hard to comprehend if people in Africa with only middle school education can use it efficiently. There's a lot of third worlders who know how to send and receive coins. If it's hard for you maybe the problem lies in you.
I also agree that even mid-schoolers would really able to understand even on the most basic principle on how bitcoin works.It isn't really something that's hard to understand.
Even gradeschool for sure will able to know since most of kids on todays era are really exposed to techy thing which it wont really be hard to understand.

Indeed, Bitcoin is not well known currently. We cant not change the situation by ourselve. It needs a long process in order to become a daily asset. As long as i understand, money and the banking system are quite complicated, too. But because they are essential in our normal life, people tend to learn it by themselves or by their families. Until i totaly, i fully understood how the banking system works. Right now, it is ordinary when people do not want to spend their time researching bitcoin. Therefore, we dont need to worry about the situation currently. A big leap of technology is needed in order to modify from cash to cryptoccureny. If you want to be a part of the revolution, try to raise awareness of bitcoin to other member in your family, or maybe your friends, too
Well, you see Bitcoin as what's not friendly but be clear that, Bitcoin wasn't built like what the centralized system has build but Bitcoin being decentralized should make it more a little bit different from others. What you should understand is, always be very patients with the decentralized digital currencies because of their uniqueness. Bitcoin is a unique technology which can't be compare to another.
You don't need to rush things if you don't understand bitcoin at the first time own some.
It really needs a lot of time, effort, and patience for you to fully understand how bitcoin works in the market and in our economy.
Bitcoin is a user-friendly and worth it to invest that's why there are a lot of people who are risking their money for it.

I am thinking that even the apps out there are still confusing for people to use.
Sure many people may own a mobile phone but many do not understand how they work.
Sure many people may own a mobile phone but many do not understand how they work.
people used their phones only for youtube and social media nowadays.
we need to educate them about mobile finance first.
during these pandemic situations, it should be boosted up because online/cashless payment can support physical distancing (covid-19 protocol).
when mobile finance already becomes casual, then they will find alternatives.
people usually will learn it by themselves when they found it as a hidden gem.
we need to educate people about eating. why do they need to eat, how to eat, what can be eaten, etc.
and when they understand about eating, they will find and choose what foods to eat.
we need to educate people about the root first, mobile/internet finance.
It's not that Bitcoin is not user friendly because the problem is not coming from the Bitcoin instead the problem are coming from the people who have no enough knowledge about the latest technology.
Base on your reasoning, below 25 and above 25 have difficulty in using bitcoin because they are not tech knowledgeable or financial educated enough to understand how bitcoin works. But if you are really going to dig it, the problem is coming from them because they don't have the proper knowledge in using the advance technology or for short they lack the proper education but if we are going to teach them slowly then I am sure that they can easily understand and use bitcoin properly.

I can agree upon that. It took me months to understand how bitcoin works technically, but I believe that learning just how it works on theory is enough. Bitcoin is not user friendly, but you know what? I don't expect from obsolete people to use bitcoin, at least not as a medium of exchange. They use paypal or a bank and I'm pretty sure they're okay with it. Bitcoins are in danger on their hands.
Facts like bank's trust abuse model requires some education to understand why it is good for everyone to be responsible for their own wealth.

I agree with you too but as much as we can think about it, Bitcoin is already user-friendly in a way since the applications or wallets that holds it creates such easy steps to convert it into cash but you also have to do your part to understand the necessary steps to those steps.
Of course its impossible for people to earn from Bitcoin just by hearing about it and that is the part where people needs to step up and do their part by studying and understanding this Cryptocurrency Industry.
Therefore many people do not understand Bitcoin and seems too complicated still.
If you will think deeper, every new invention come out in this world is not user friendly at first and Bitcoin (the concept of cryptocurrency as a whole) i not an exception from it. Of course all people will have a hard time to cope with it since it was new. Hello, even our ancestors spend lots of time before mastering how to forge a sword lol. It is the same as using bitcoin. You can't master it in one night, adopting it for a very long time is required for you to fully understand it
. So give it a chance to prove its worth. I know this one is tor the geeks but with the right amount of interest and determination I believe that all of us can apprecaite its magic.
I agree with it, and as i what observed me either was not an exception to the advancement of technology and its not a user friendly at first. Everything that was an advancement of technology today needs our patience for us to be able to learned it. Even if up to now bitcoin was not totally a user friendly yet due to it is not really easy to access and needs expertise before you can dealt it perfectly, also you need more time to be able to study and research about it.
If you don't use some local exchanges to purchase things with BTC, you will have a hard time purchasing goods because the transactions will take too long to finished except if you are doing P2P trading with the other person. But little by little there are some people who develop some technology to change this situation, namely the Lightning network. But with our current situation in our country, we have some user-friendly crypto exchanges that we can use to pay our bills and some other things with BTC and so far we don't have a problem with it until now.

No, this is a problem with the whole infrastructure... I know what you're talking about, that 1 BTC=1 BTC... But still, in this world so far, everything is measured in fiat currencies, which by the way also exchange among themselves!
Isn't this the very reason why bitcoin was created in the first place? Governments will never allow for free exchanges between bitcoin and fiat because in such case most people will eventually come to conclusion that bitcoin is merely better. They will forget what fiat is, they will be asking themselves why they have been using paper backed by nothing for so long. I have an example ...
My lonely uncle Arseniy wants to buy a premium account on Pornhub, and from a friend he heard that he can do it more privately with bitcoin, but he doesn't have it! How can he easily buy them?
I am not talking about cryptoanarchists manifestos. I am talking about ordinary users (teachers, cab drivers, salespeople, housewives...) from whom Bitcoin is still very far away...
I already answered this question, P2P platforms should be more user-friendly, so that ordinary people could buy bitcoin in two clicks. Anyway, the easiest way for your uncle to buy bitcoin anonymously is ask if his friend would like to sell some satoshis to him directly.
