its not easy to make people use BTC. we normally don't use anything that's something we don't know. There has to have some learning to make people think its safe because the media already made a noise about BTC being related to scams, terrorism and fraud. I think one reason that may force people to use btc is if there is a legal entity that will recommend it or banks can first introduce XRP and then BTC follows.

How can we get people to use bitcoin as a real currency and not just a quick way to get cash as a lot of people seem to do? When I say currency, I mean the literal definition of currency as something that is used as a medium of exchange.
Even online, there are only a few stores who are accepting it as payment.
As of this moment there is a quite stores (physical and online) that has a method for cryptocurrency or just bitcoin. We cannot really force people to use cryptocurrency as a means of payment of every transaction, it is only applicable for those who has a wide perception for the future not with pessimists about the technology capabilities. Even online, there are only a few stores who are accepting it as payment.

Bitcoin BTC can be a currency only if its price is stable.
and that won't happen. bitcoin is a decentralized currency in which no one controls it in the market and everyone who is called an investor makes the pump or dump itself. the situation will continue with efforts to make profit, and bitcoin will not be stable.
So many people already use bitcoins in the virtual world and in the real world, just bitcoin hands are currently tied until the governments legalizes it, then it will be possible to talk about other possibilities when this happens. It is certain that this moment should sometime come.
As a currency, crypto has been accepted onlibe. As viable payment for internet services and premium content viewing. I've seen only a handful of businesses accepting crypto currency in the real world, ranging from clothes to food. But these businesses are very strict about the amount of stuff you have to pay for.
Yeah, the fact is that if we can at least get to see more merchants accepting bitcoin as a payment method, we will obviously get to see people using it. However, unless we do not want to be realistic, on a larger scale this is something that would be pretty hard to achieve at the moment, comparing the fact that the market is still highly volatile and probably when we get to see some huge level of mainstream adoption, less volatility and probably some bigger moneys kicking in and the market getting more matured, absolutely, real life usage on its own, will most definitely kick in all by its own, but I believe it is all a gradual process. Bitcoin BTC can be a currency only if its price is stable.
Not quite. Even though bitcoin's price become stable, it might still not be enough for people to start using bitcoin. It could drive businesses to accept bitcoins as an alternative payment option, but it doesn't guarantee that people will start using it. It still depends on the people whether they would want to get into crypto or not.
If we prove to people that it is a great tool, reliable, and more advantageous than paper money, then people will use it more. We also need to take measures to prevent bad behaviors in the use of bitcoins for malicious purposes such as: tax evasion, money laundering, etc.

But it's still very limited to using bitcoin as a currency, you're still having trouble finding a seller who accepts payment with bitcoin right? if bitcoin is like a fiat can be used anywhere, I'm sure many people will use it as a currency

for now I think it is very difficult to introduce bitcoin to ordinary people, and moreover in my country because crypto currencies have not been legalized my government in the country so of course the cryptocurrency interests and beliefs in my country are still seen with one eye maybe if the state has legalized it would be very easy in investing Even online, there are only a few stores who are accepting it as payment.
We can make people to start using bitcoin by we ourself start using it as a mode of payment for good and services as this is the major ways people will adopt it. Bitcoin is the money of the future and we just need to tell people this.
well, we can't force it, because using bitcoin as a payment tool is an awareness that we can benefit by using bitcoin as a payment tool. well, for now, there have been so many trades that use bitcoin for its marketing tools, because bitcoin can be used as an investment tool, like gold.
One of the ways to get the public's attention on Bitcoin is to start asking for making payments in Bitcoin in every shop we buy items from. With this, the attention of these shops, companies or businesses will be drawn to Bitcoin and consider integrating it into their payment.
The OP answered thier question. People could use crypto currency as a currency if they could exchange it for somethin that they coyld actually use and not just investments, premium content or other internet services. I mean we saw before that a guy bought pizza for 10K BTC. Those kinds of transactions are what we need to get people on crypto currency.

fastest way is having shop owner to set up crypto payment service. like normal payment. people will start to get curious when its available anywhere. when its become a norm, the trend will start.

Convincing people is not an easy task, but showing them how we really use it will have them interested to participate and adopt the chain. We needed to change their perspective that it's not only for investment but it can also be used in our daily activities. For now, as our society relies mostly on computers and internet, so we should as well start diverting our money to cryptocurrency.
