I don't think it's becoming more available because in the past almost all the exchanges let us move big amounts without knowing our identities, and now almost all exchanges ask for official documents to create an account, this makes things hard for a lot of users.

But we see more exchanges nowadays and more people involved, and i would say all of them had to do big research before joining to BTC.

yes but I think the problem is that scammers are working to make it more accessible
I don't think  it's because of them, besides in this current state of our technology, everything now has become do easy to access, scammers are just one thing who brpught bitcoins into fame. Though all in all, the majority of it was made by the blockchain technology.

... there is a lot of confusion on this topic yet.
Yes. There is exactly what it is.

It is becoming more and more pronounced in the society although I don't think many people are already into it.
I just answered a "No" from the poll, knowing that it means it is getting more and more in supply, but if I was mistaken and the availability that the OP meant was getting access to it then I might also say "Yes" to it, besides bitcoins are easy to get in this times especially if you're a trader or an investor. But if I'm guessing it right about on its volume having an increase, I really don't think so.

But perhaps, it might be possible for we have many miners as of today. (Not that I know if that was having an effect on the current state of volume of bitcoin, just guessing though)

Bitcoin is more available, that's not a question now, you can buy/sell bitcoin nearly at every corner if you want to, the real question is:
Are there more people who search for bitcoin nowadays? Who need accessible bitcoin, who need bitcoin to be more and more available?
Or, after the FOMO in 2017 year end, people realized that they could buy bitcoin, but they won't buy it again (at least until the next FOMO Cheesy )?
Is there a real demand for bitcoin that made it to become more available or it just became more available and the demand will come sometime?

It is becoming more popular - yes. Becomes more accessible - no.
On a serious note we have seen how Bitcoin was hard to get I mean how it was for one to buy bitcoin because there where no much exchanges on the industry and even at that it was not as accessible as it is now. Now just with a tip of your fingers, one can just bitcoin Bitcoin without any stress like what we had before. Candidly speaking, we will be looking more case use of Bitcoin.

On the other hand back then you could just fire up cgminer and get some bitcoins after a while...

But the past is not returning. People can now buy satoshis in many places, albeit non-anonymously.

Yes and NO. A few years ago we only had a few exchanges and now we have several exchanges to chose from and we have decentralized services where you can trade without the KYC requirements. LocalBitcoin has been with us for many years but they have gone full KYC now, so that option has made it a little bit more difficult to buy bitcoins without exchanges.

Also, more people have been joining Bitcoin Meetups lately, so you have more people to trade with and you can even use some of the OTC platforms to buy larger amount of coins.  Grin

Agree, it is becoming popular and it seems that a lot of people are interested in bitcoin but not everyone has a direct access to it, based on the articles that I read, bitcoin is so hard to mine now and not all mining sites or faucets are reliable enough to waste your time into.

despite having a bad image in most people who heard about bitcoin through tvnews in my country it is surprisingly being
accepted by more stores and company and more will probably be accepting it to in coming years.

It is becoming more and more pronounced in the society although I don't think many people are already into it. Perhaps some already bought out of curiosity and FOMO, but there's still a huge percentage who's afraid to take a dip in the water. At this point in time, there are lots of places to get your bitcoin right now, and there's literally no reason to say that you can't find a service that you don't trust knowing that these entities are already regulated by the government.

The moment comes into realization and people finally recognize cryptocurrency as currency to be used especially for Bitcoin. No wonder it came into the point where people would have an interest in this, the fair, easy and fast usable currency is seemingly attracting us.
The most adaptable crypto coin in the market will continue its great journey and gains popularity.

Bitcoin was now becoming accessible, as long as you have an internet connection, you can connect to the network. You can buy bitcoin from many exchanges, and even you can buy from localbitcoin, and you will meet a local seller near your location. That makes bitcoin becoming popular among the people, although there are still not many people using bitcoin if we compare from the total population of the people in the world. But soon, the bitcoin will grow more than now so many people will buy bitcoin.

Well, Bitcoin is already popular and while time goes by ,bitcoin continue to make a noise in crypto market that's why it will become more well known in the future. Also it will become more useful in many ways specially as payment method but because of it's higher value I don't think if it will become affordable for everyone specially those people with less capacity to buy bitcoin.

I agree, to an extent. I don't think it'll become more affordable in that 1 bitcoin = 10gbp I believe items that we buy today will cost like 2/3 satoshi's rather than like paying in whole bitcoins

Bitcoin is becoming more affordable, that's for sure. But, governments prevent this, it is absolutely true
Actually, Bitcoin is clearly becoming less affordable, since the price increases with time. Moreover, it's also not becoming more available from the miner's perspective, with each halving cutting the rewards by 50%.
And governments don't always try to prevent people from using Bitcoin more. Some of them are being friendly and trying to make sure everyone benefits of the new technology.
And in terms of ways to use and exchange Bitcoin - yes, I think it's clear that the situation is getting better. In my country, we now have dozens of exchanges that allow buying/selling BTC for money in local fiat being sent to the bank account, and we can regularly see the news that Bitcoin is now accepted by even more companies as payment.

Bitcoin has become more available but less affordable these days.
I do not think bitcoin has become less affordable, it's always been this way, the price at every particular period can either be affordable to some or not.

And the most important thing to note is that when trying to purchase bitcoins, you must not attempt to acquire one full bitcoin immediately, you can gradually increase your bitcoin portfolio by purchasing the amount you can afford at that particular time, and with time you'll could own one(full bitcoin),two and much more.

Of course. We see a huge increase in attention on Bitcoin, a lot of people are currently looking into and checking out cryptocurrencies, and it's all for a good reason - the technology behind it is pretty revolutionary.

It is becoming more popular - yes. Becomes more accessible - no.
Yeah, this is a shitpost. Look at any major country, company, anyone and you'll see advancements in their knowledge of cryptocurrency. 3 countries are now developing their own cryptos, multiple companies like mastercard are as well, and Bitcoin is extremely popular around people now.

Happy with it's current state. Not mainstream yet, but big enough to become mainstream in the future.

The friend used the Bitcoin by doing guerrilla marketing as you know, pulling the topic from one place to another. In other words, when he was trying to bring the subject directly to a project, he mentioned Bitcoin as many people do. I mean, it doesn't mean anything. He knows that. But he doesn't care because he has achieved his goal!

No, It is becoming less available. Here is the ending of mining of bitcoin simulation.

Dust and lost keys will make the supply 0 after a few billion years. Well the supply will always be there, but no one will be able to access it.

What are you saying? There's like lots of companies now that accepts Bitcoin as payment and even exchange fiat to Bitcoin. In the Philippines, there are shops that let's you exchange Bitcoin to Fiat or Fiat to Bitcoin. There's also a company that handles BTC, ETH, XRP, BCH wallets and let's you pay bills using them, you could also buy in that same wallet from them. It's so easy to get Bitcoin nowadays.
