I think another good question to ask with this one is: what country do you live in?
It is easier for me as an American to openly use cryptocurrencies, and also for me to have the expectation that it remains legal to do so.
There may be some on here who take a higher risk.
Topic: Do you tell in public that you use bitcoin? (Read 6861 times)
I do not hide from anyone that I use Bitcoin. Many people think that it is illegal. But I do care about their opinion, because I know that Bitcoin is a very promising cryptocurrency
No, I do not tell anyone about this. Rather, I have no one asks about it. But if someone is interested, I certainly will tell about cryptocurrency and how to use it
Yup i always tell to my friends or in public that i am using bitcoin why to hide the real ? When you are really working it to the good thing bitcoin is not bad for me as long as you are earning it from legal ways i believed that bitcoin will be understandable to those people who really confused about it. Wait for the right time.
I also talk openly about it. I'm their earned and have the full right to use. My friend is also interested cryptocurrency after I told him about this
Since when I was talking about Bitcoin in public I mostly was seeing faces full of surprise or, what was even worse, faces telling me that they don't care just with their eyes, I almost have stopped mentioning BTC in public. But when I hear someone is talking about it of course I'm joining to the conversation with pleasure.

No I dont tell because I made it secret because its extra income. I do not want allow some people to know my extra opportunity in life haha. I just dont want it. Maybe I guess I am shy to tell to my friends about this.
this is not because you are shy but you are jealous that your relatives or friends will earn as much as you earn and you want to shine in front of them showing off . Just share the light and be happy rather than having a shallow mind 
Is Bitcoin still considered shady in the public opinion or government opinion?

It's not a secret CIA dudes read this forum. I tried for long time to keep my nationality obscured but eventually I've blown it.
I've also found out that Romanian Intelligence Service keeps noting on Romanians that use Bitcoin. Not for the security of the state but for personal reasons. Please note that in Romania, a country with 22.000.000 people there are officially 200.000 mobile phone taps.

Personally I dont and its due to the low popularity of Bitcoin over here and also the perception of people around in that they believe anything not sanctioned of given approval by government, is definitely illegal.
Another factor is the anonymity of Bitcoin which does not give room for any form of identification so my neighbor could be involved in Bitcoin, and I wont know this and many other factors limits my ability to say it boldly about Bitcoin but I have friends that are involved too so we just discussed about it...

I tell some of my friends but no one knows what bitcoin is 
and suddenly I laugh at their confuse face then they ask me bitcoin and I show them, but they still confuse and make my laugh harder but there is still a smart friends who knows about bitcoin but they don't use it. They still love to use the real money.
I like showing my friends how bitcoin works and how to earn coming from this great investment. Knowing how they can possibly earn and how big it can be that way i gather interest from them. and suddenly I laugh at their confuse face then they ask me bitcoin and I show them, but they still confuse and make my laugh harder but there is still a smart friends who knows about bitcoin but they don't use it.

I don't tell it in public because in my opinion it is waste my time and it needs place and many people for explaining about bitcoins and cryptos coins, i just told to my friends personal, it is more comfort than explaining about bitcoins on many people.
When the opportunity arises I tell people about Bitcoin. I also tell them about other cryptocurrencies. Funny how suddenly they ask how come I am knowledgeable about these things. They are usually suspicious at first - because for them money is something they can touch and count.
But I show them for example a credit card and tell them.. is this money? They say yes. But I tell them.. but this is only plastic card... but you know the value of this card because you know how it works.
I tell them you use credit card with the money you do not have , to buy things you do not need, to impress people you do not like.
Then i tell them about BITCOIN.. it is real currency. Just because you dont understand it right now - does not make it unreal.
yes of course... I do..
what's wrong with BTC? Why shouldn't I tell about the BTC?
Instead of hiding about BTC, I ENCOURAGE my friends and make them understand how important the bitcoin for daily life is!

not in public but mostly to my friends although i am not going to hide it as i have also draw bitcoin logo on my bike and i think that is the most exp loser of bitcoin in public and most of the time people ask me about that and then i use to tell me a detail story of bitcoin and they really appreciate it and show interest to start it.
That was great ,i am sure the person who ask dont heard any news about bitcoin they totally innocent in the first place ,I will be gald if one of those will do bitcoins and continue because most of my friends out of only starts on first time then a weeks after they will stop and say it is so hard to earn bitcoins.

Yes I do tell and I really love to do so.
Why wouldn't we? We need Bitcoin to become popular because it'd be even in our advantage. The price would rise a lot because the more people are coming, the more Bitcoin is wanted so we need a higher price. Also it'd be in our advantage because we would have more places and POIs where we can pay with Bitcoin at. I'm talking to others about Bitcoin because it's even in my own interest.
I have been using bitcoin for 3 years but only last year I told a few friends of mine about bitcoin. They were amazed.
In my country there are no problems with using bitcoins. Just people do not really want to use it. Try to sell a car for bitcoins.Just the same here in our country but few people only knew about it. I once told my family about it and they were amaze about bitcoin. They could not believe about it that you can earn real money through it. But because of its compexity and it seems complicated, they do not want to try it. They cannot comprehend how you are able tobearn through it.
