I remember last year Starbucks was offering 25 % discount if you pay with bitcoins, and there was video on youtube (probably its still there) how 4 people sitting in the car, driving to Starbucks, ordering coffee, paying with mobile phone and then driving away smiling... that how its done in USA. Rest of us need to wait a lot to be able to do something similar.
My country doesn't know about bitcoins, nobody mention bitcoins in the news or papers. There is few sites that talk about it, but I don't see they are updated regularly, or that someone is going there. I need to wait a lot fot bitcoin to come in my country, well what to do.

It's quit popular among teenagers but old guys knows nothing about btc they don't even know that this type of coin could exist. I think it will take another 5 to 10 years when whole country will know about bitcoin.

Old people will never prefer to use bitcoins as they even don't know how to use internet so they will never prefer to get into bitcoins as its very complicated for them.


yeah that is totally true, majority of the adult in my place don't know how to use computer only few elders are knowledgeable in computer or aware in technology. They will much prefer themselves to other things than to prefer use bitcoin.

Everyone know that US is most country accepted bitcoin in major area and companies and the number of company accepted bitcoin are growing daily

But that not much article or post clear out how is popuplar of bitcoin in your country

This topic let sharing to us about users using bitcoin in your country

- What they normaly do with bitcoin in your country ?
- Do you think your country will replace US for number of bitcoin users in near future ?

I think it will take more years before it become popular in my country, It is because there few bitcoin enthusiast we had it now in my country. And only few business advertisement who accepted bitcoin too.

I am from india and i can say only 10% of the bitcoin consept is totally spread over full india and in my state i think not even 1user knows about it except me

How can you so confident that only you are using bitcoin in your state? My neighbor doesn't know that I am using bitcoin and even I don't know if he is using it or not, I hope you got my point.

Due to this anonymous culture you might not be know who is using bitcoin near to you and in my country I know many traders more than 30 whom I know closely using bitcoins and some of room mates using bitcoin and making their life good.

its really popular to be honest, a lot of people i know at least knows something about bitcoins and some of them even use it from time to time
in my country it is not popular at all as adoption here is really slow, people seem to not need any alternatives to their money so they not even try using bitcoins

The fact is people are so used to fiat and credit cards that they don't want to try anything new, and the other fact is they are also not aware about the bitcoins yet.
Same situation with you. Although there are actually quite a few people around that recognizes the bitcoin logo.
I can roughly say that 1 out of 2000 people uses bitcoin. Being a social person and of my years in this place, I have met many people who knows about bitcoin but only one that's actually using it.

- What they normaly do with bitcoin in your country ?

I actually don't know much people using bitcoin around me except one cousin of mine who also earns and uses bitcoins like me.

- Do you think your country will replace US for number of bitcoin users in near future ?

I don't think so because US is a way larger country than mine and as there are already shops accepting bitcoins so they would probably keep increasing but in my country it is not yet well promoted.

only a few were familiar with bitcoin , just to take advantage of bitcoin, in my country bitcoin is regarded as a commodity, not a currency

bitcoin is very popular at my country because i can buying anything with bitcoin
How nice s this where you can buy anything with your bitcoin hoping that in the near future that here in my countey bitcoin will be fully accepted where we can use bitcoin to buy anything we want some random staff etc because for now. it just limited

Scenario will change in future for sure when bitcoin will be used everywhere for buying everything, bitcoin is not too popular at a moment in my country but users are increasing slowly and steadily.

I don't think the scenario will skip the neccasary stages. For example, in my country, we barely started to use credit cards instead of cash. There is still a lot of cash flooting around, almost everyone has quite sum of cash in their pockets. I've seen people use credit cards for almost everyting is US, particularly FL. I think we will have to get into that credit card transaction stage first before exploring other choices like online currencies. Not to mention how bitcoin is an alienated object in 3rd world countries, still. Roll Eyes

But people that knows bitcoin in my country are usually in it for the money earning purposes. To use it as a medium for exchange markets, altcoin markets. Not to use it as an actual currency.

We know US is huge country and people are more tech savvy, I am from India but I bet you that Indians are using bitcoin more then Americans as many Americans are still busy in cleaning the shit.

I cannot say that our country can replace or will replace the US in terms of bitcoin usage.  But I must say that we are growing in terms of bitcoin usage here in our country.  I can attest that because buying of bitcoins is made thru banks, 711 stores, and cash remittances.  They even acknowledge bitcoins as payment for utilities, credit card bills, and even tuition fees.

It is not even mentioned here where I live.
It is a privilege just to have running water in my town. So bitcoin and the devices that are needed in order to use it is not a top priority to most people living here.
That may change if some venture capitalist comes and offers the citizens devices and a means to exchange bitcoins for the local currency then we will see a drastic change in the living conditions and people's knowledge of this unknown currency.

how is internet, social network ...in your place ?

I can say that bitcoin is popular here in my country because i observe in the local thread that there are many people using bitcoin specially in our bitcoin wallet discussion, and i am happy one day that bitcoin will accepts by more stores as their form of payment.
