Well, I have been doing some online searches recently to see if there is any country out of the 195 countries in the world that is not yet aware of Bitcoin, but I have not seen any results for my search; rather, what I am only seeing is a result for countries where Bitcoin is banned or not banned, and it really makes me think that there is no part of the world that is not yet aware of Bitcoin, but I am not totally convinced.

I heard that there is one country that doesn't put on clothes; they are always necked and only use animal skin to cover their private parts, just like in the Stone Age. If there is truly still such an underdeveloped country, I doubt they would be aware of Bitcoin.

The truth is that the knowledge of Bitcoin has really spread to a lot of countries and regions of the world now, compared to 2009, when it just got developed.
Bitcoin has existed more than a decade, so expect that by now, majority of the people have already known about bitcoin. Although not all of them are actually educated about it, but at least they know that bitcoin exists. With the help of internet, Bitcoin has been spread all over the world, knowing that it's always hyped in the social media most particularly when it comes to getting rich quick, even if in reality Bitcoin is not capable to make us rich instantly.

As a beginner in this potential forum, I never knew that bitcoin has spread round the whole world, I thought is only this forum and few countries that know bitcoin, but what I saw in the village when I traveled for local business to buy with cash because this is the season of the crops, I was so surprised seen two of my customers discussing about bitcoin in the local market, that if they can see someone that will buy crops from them and pay them with bitcoin they will be very happy, but I smile over the issues and told them that very soon government will do it to make bitcoin legal tender in the country, because I know bitcoin is not legal tender in my country, and I don't know if those guys are agent of government agencies to know if am a bitcoiners which is the reason I didn't let them know am a bitcoin lover, but I was very happy in my mind that my village people know bitcoin because I know for village people to know bitcoin, it show that it has gone round the whole world, that is what make me to create this topic, that bitcoin has spread all over the world.

This is not a new thing seeing bitcoin discussed in the village. Many people in the world today know very well about bitcoin, but their main problem is the government. Regardless of how they hear about bitcoin as a currency and the freedom it gives to people, there are two things that discourage many people at the time, especially people doing business and wanting to save money. These two things are:

1: the risk Once they know about the bitcoin risk, they won't believe in it again because they are not ready to lose money in it; they only wish they could save money in it and are not ready for investment. Although they like it based on how it is, they cannot hide the risk behind it.

2: The government Many people are neglecting bitcoin because they are afraid of the government since they refuse to accept it as legal tender. They feel that using it will cause them harm, and they also feel that after they start using it, the government may come over to them.

You don't need to surprised how news are carrying circulating bitcoin all over the world, especially the third world country and some of them do hear about bitcoin through local news channels such as radio, TV and some social media platforms. The youth of nowadays is active on social media including some of the artist involve bitcoin in their musical rhyme to suit their flow, with all this bitcoin kept waxing every day by it users and for you to hear the news in your village shouldn't be a thing if surprised because through these things I have mentioned could convey the news to your people over there.

If there is a part of the world that does not know about Bitcoin, it could be a place where there is no internet.  The information of Bitcoin being spread that fast is due to the internet and at the same time the advertisement created on social media platforms.  And also the tri-media is involved in spreading news about BTC regardless of being negative or positive helps in proliferation of information about Bitcoin.

The truth is that the knowledge of Bitcoin has really spread to a lot of countries and regions of the world now, compared to 2009, when it just got developed. 

Of course, it has been more than a decade since the creation of BTC, it is obvious that as time pass by,  the places that are reached by the news about BTC have progressed a lot.  Even the companies that integrate Bitcoin also increased in numbers and can be found in different places and countries.

We have seen a lot of people talking about bitcoin and have interest in them. Those in the rural and urban areas have heard a lot about bitcoin and are really interested in it. The most common people have been discussing about bitcoin and the mass adoption of bitcoin we have seen in the recent years prove that bitcoin will become a widely use cryptocurrency and will have a very big significant influence in the financial sector. I don’t live in a rural area but those that live in the village where I come from are conversant with it because they are literate and have gone to school, so they know the benefit of cryptocurrency, so it is not something surprising from my side.

There are several persons out there who would want to adopt Bitcoin but they can't because of the restriction set by their government on Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a great invention and the masses are beginning to see the importance of Bitcoin but the resistance created by the government has been their lost of interest, but with time and good governance more persons will begin to adopt, once they understand that Bitcoin is a great solution to inflation. However I believe with time more persons and government will accept Bitcoin like El Salvador did.

I think that's not surprising. Since ancient times, Bitcoin has had a large community, and it continues to grow to this day. The current very high price is also clear proof that bitcoin has a large community and is much needed. In fact, in the city I live in, very many ordinary people discussed bitcoin when it was hype. This means that they also find out about bitcoin and are interested. So, I think this will apply to all countries that can access the internet.
Honestly, it’s not surprising that everyone is already aware about bitcoin since majority can easily access the internet nowadays even in rural areas. But believe me, if you ask them to give its description or tell us how it can be utilized, they have nothing to say, because all they know is that bitcoin is a get rich quick tool that’s why a lot are very eager to have it.

Even in our own province, bitcoin is already patronized online. But still, a lot of the people here are not really aware how to take advantage with bitcoin, all they know is that bitcoin is more like a Ponzi scheme that attracts big time investors.

People still needs to gets educate more about Bitcoin so they can use Bitcoin. If they can't use Bitcoin for the transaction, they can use Bitcoin for the investment. That will helps them to make a profits from the Bitcoin investment.

that's actually what's happening more in the growth of Bitcoin in the world. The use of Bitcoin as an alternative payment for goods or services is still limited in certain environments. More people know it as an investment asset.
I think this cannot be separated from the role of exchanges that campaign for Bitcoin as an investment asset that can be a good choice for the public. So the first understanding of people who are new to Bitcoin is of course as an investment, not as a means of payment.
but I'm sure that understanding will grow as new people learn more about Bitcoin in the future. seeing Bitcoin which will later be used as an alternative means of payment throughout the world will be truly amazing.

Bitcoin has been spreads in many countries but still many people doesn't knows what is Bitcoin and how to use Bitcoin properly. If you see some people make a transaction and pay using Bitcoin while Bitcoin is legal in your country, that will be a good to see that things happens to other people. But we know that many people out there still doesn't knows about Bitcoin.

People still needs to gets educate more about Bitcoin so they can use Bitcoin. If they can't use Bitcoin for the transaction, they can use Bitcoin for the investment. That will helps them to make a profits from the Bitcoin investment.

But if that things is happens in small village, that will surprise us because they are aware with the news about Bitcoin. If many places can spreads this, Bitcoin will becomes more popular and many people will used for more.

Which country? Those are just small tribes and they are just a minority in some countries and they don't represent any country at all. I don't believe there is any country in this world that still lives like the Stone Age.

Regarding the popularity of bitcoin, I am pretty sure that it is present in 195 countries worldwide but that doesn't mean everyone knows about bitcoin. There are many people who don't even care about it and don't want to know what it is and that's normal. I have a few relatives in the city, they are all state officials, have stable income and large assets. One time I asked them about bitcoin, they didn't even know what it was and had no intention of learning about it.
Bitcoin has become popular all over the world but it depends on each person's needs, depending on the area they live in, not everyone knows and cares about it.

It is not a new things mate, knowing bitcoin is not just talking about bitcoin but transacting with bitcoin makes you more conversant to bitcoin. If actually those local traders know the transaction fee attached to using bitcoin for transactions, they will know that bitcoin is not used for minimal transaction. Meaning the transaction fee per transaction of bitcoin is too expensive to use as a petty trader. What if a local trader want to buy something of $10? Definitely it wouldn't be possible because bitcoin minimum amount to send should not be less than 0.0012 BTC.


and the transaction fee is now currently 0.0006 since bitcoin lightening network is not available.


Apparently bitcoin transaction should be for a serious expensive business not for petty traders except USDT is used for the transaction or TRX which will be later converted to bitcoin if they received it.

Of course, If you believe in the change and evolution of current civilizations, then you must also believe that the currency that is popular today will surely gain popularity in the future. Bitcoin did not have such popularity at the beginning of Bitcoin's discovery by Satoshi Nakamota, but today Bitcoin has become the number one popular digital currency in the world. At the beginning of the discovery of Bitcoin, very few people in the world understood about the use and importance of Bitcoin, but today the world's big famous people are investing a large part of their investment behind the investment of Bitcoin. Now the world's biggest celebrities are competing by investing in Bitcoin.  Thus, as time goes by, Bitcoin is reaching more people and the competition among people to invest in Bitcoin is also increasing.

I will agree to this. People are certainly not naive anymore about bitcoin, because as long as they have time to access the internet, they will definitely come to cross about bitcoin and recognize it. Although some would find it negatively due to what their government is doing against bitcoin, but the fact remains that everyone today is now aware about bitcoin, and it will definitely spread out faster when bitcoin promotion will end up successful.

At this stage in which we are in the world, technology has taken over and as such, we are in the digital age so I think you should not be surprised to see your village people having discussions over accepting Bitcoin and using it for payment as well. It is true that Bitcoin  is fast gaining traction in the world but I still believe there are still places that are yet to hear about Bitcoin but I believe most cities are already in the know of Bitcoin existence.

Most countries are beginning to see the importance of Bitcoin and have started adopting it while some are still on the verge of doing so and are trying to regulate it so they can be able to control it but one thing they forget that Bitcoin is people driven and there is nothing anybody can do about it. That is why most government are battling against it but I still believe it would get to a point where the people would no longer need the government approval to use Bitcoin they would start transacting on their own ignoring government laws against Bitcoin.

As a Bitcoin enthusiast, it should not be a surprise to you anymore that countries have started adopting Bitcoin as a legal tender because that has always been what the Bitcoin community envisaged long ago and it is beginning to turn into reality.

You shouldn't be surprised that people in the rural areas know about Bitcoin.
I will not surprise again if I see something like that bro, just that I thought, the rural areas never heard about bitcoin which was the reason I was surprised, but right now, I will not be surprise.

 It's one thing to be spread and another to be adopted. True, Bitcoin had gained popularity and hit the nooks and crannies of the world but adoption rate is not so widespread. You should know that people have the right to choice and while bitcoin has presented an opportunity for individuals to carry out their transactions without the supervision of banks or government authorities and the rest, you find that there are still those who choose the traditional way of banking and will be ready to defend their choices any day over Bitcoin.
 While we know it's not everyone that's supposed to like or choose Bitcoin, it's a better option to fiat if you are a business man/woman or just an average user as it ensures faster and cheaper money transfers and it's decentralized nature doesn't collapse at a single point of failure, but people will still prefer to stick with the poison they know.

Are you saying Bitcoin has spread all over the world just because you saw two villagers talking with each other about Bitcoin? That is a precipitate guess, no?

Bitcoin adoption is still pretty low in the world compared to number of people living on it. Bitcoin must be indeed everywhere, in every countries, but I fear the number of individuals adopting Bitcoin on each area of the world is scarce. We see the price of BTC skyrocketing to new a new ATH, but it's not exactly due to adoption increasing, but due to the whales acquiring even larger amounts of Bitcoin each new day.

Bitcoin is still heavily concentrated on the hands of big players, while most people in the world doesn't even care about acquiring it at all. That is sad, but real.

BTC is only banned in around 51 countries out of 195 so it is legal in 144 countries. Which indicates it is spread all over the world. As in these 51 if it's not legal it's not mean, people there don't know about it. They are involved in crypto but due to no law, they are doing it with precautions. Overall BTC word must have gone into the ears of every second person in a every second country. Its a good thing for all of BTC lovers.

And from the story of yours, I can say your country is one of these 51 that did not allowed crypto as if it would have then you won't have to care about if these 2 dudes will turn you in just because you own, or love BTC. Pre-caution is necessary and important but if they are farmers and living in your country then you don't have to manifest that much like a film scene that they might be an agent of government that there neighbours or relatives won't even know that he is one. Be realistic.
