I think forcing people to use bitcoin is very uncalled for. You can't dictate others to do what you're doing just because you can. There are many factors that contribute why people aren't using bitcoin and isn't on their list to use anytime in the future.

Some people aren't well-educated about bitcoin. You cannot impose something to them that they are not familiar with. This will just bring them confusion and some will even become suspiscious as to why are you pushing to let them use something they don't know about. Of course, people are always on their guard most especially when it comes to transactions involving monetary values. They wouldn't dare to risk to something alien and new to them. They need to be educated first about the nature of bitcoin and how it works. Someone must introduce them the basics and the fundamentals they need to know and learn. After that, it's all up to them to decide whether they would use it or not. It's better to be cautious nowadays than to cry later on over a spilled milk.

We know the benefits of the bitcoin as well as the risks that comes along with it. There are many advantages bitcoin has to offer, but we can't also neglect and deny the fact that there are also disadvantages. Let's spread awareness about bitcoin. Not everyone is literate as we are. It's going to be a better place if we're going to teach them rather than judge and call them mediocre. After laying facts and knowledge to them, we shall let them pick. If they're interested, then great, but if not, it's still okay. We have different preferences anyway.

There is no special way to educate people about bitcoin and the facts that someone doesn’t show interest or use bitcoin for transactions makes the person a mediocre. People have what suits or interest them, some people still don’t find bitcoin safe to keep their funds. In such situation you should be patient enough to  educate them about bitcoin and it’s importanc.

Until you educate them about bitcoin you can’t call anyone mediocre. And the fact Jack don’t have interest in bitcoin doesn’t make Jack a mediocre. Get it and get it right.

Bitcoin is generally a coin that is good for our daily and future transactions, but I do notice that some class of people fine it difficult to go into trading and buying of bitcoin, I really don’t understand the problems. How it the advice to them, And what do we think we should do to make some people understand bitcoin more better. Some mediocre do hear of bitcoin and see some advertising online, but they are still afraid, I really want everyone including mediocre to comfortable with bitcoin and make use of it in their daily transactions, Every single human makes use of money, I want every one to make use of bitcoin such as they do with money. I hope this is understandable to us.
Explain what you know and let them do their part. If they're really interested it, then they'll finds ways to familiriaze with bitcoin. You've done giving your part, giving them idea/s, now it's up to them if they're gonna dig deeper and learn more things about bitcoins, or even other cryptocurrency. Their interests is their trigger for learning stuffs about it. Even though how much you explain and even convince them, if they're not into then they will really understand it.

There's no other way to make them feel comfortable except by educating them about Bitcoin and related services centered around it. Aren't you the same? Would you feel good if you use some currency that you don't know at all?

There is no need to force everyone to use Bitcoin either. Just let them learn what it is and decide where they can use it.
I agree with you. We do not need to force people to do what they do not want. The best way is to persuade with peace and honest. If they truly have an open mind, they will understand Bitcoin as well as other cryptocurrency and the blockchain system. Then, they can easily accept bitcoin as a currency

It took me 2 years in order to change my mother's mind set of digital money. She always thought that these are some sorts of scam cause there are too many frauds in my countries using fake blockchain idea to steal people's money
2 years of convincing your mother? damn thats really a hard task man and does require enough patience for you to care for here to know about Bitcoin.If that do happen in my case then i wont really bother much
if someone do really reject me out and instead i do let him/her learn on his own about it.I agree that Bitcoin is for everyone but on circumstances where there are really some parts of the society which cant really
be possibly to learn by someone due neither they are illiterates when it comes to technology or even on that reading and writing problems or simply people arent really that interested and just
decide to stick on what are the things they've got used to.Adoption is on the movement though and let these people do discover on their own with their own interest.

The only way we can make them to understand bitcoin and how it work for someone favour.i think we should still make them understand that business is all about risk likewise bitcoin too. You have to remove the spirit of fear without that you can't understand bitcoin.

If you truly want to change somebody, change yourself. I'd be scared away if someone started agressively preaching on any subject, sepecially the one concerning material value like money. Be succsesfull in trading and hodling and people around you will see that it's real and it's working.

Of course, educate the ones that show interest.

The issue is that many middleclass people don't even know what bitcoin is and the rest know what it is but are ignorant to do a research and find out what it actually is.
They are under the impression that bitcoin is illegal money used for scams and buying illegal things but that isn't the truth as we know it.
There are others who know what actually bitcoin is but don't use it since it is not legalized in their countries.
And then there are the rest of us who actually use bitcoin.

So there are actually many things that bitcoin passes through before it reaches the people who knows how potential it is.
But as years pass by, bitcoin's reach is spreading far to many people.

Bitcoin is a new thing for people who don't understand the risks and benefits that will be obtained, it takes a long time to explain its meaning, and the positive impact of bitcoin and minimizes the risk of hacking, sometimes this is what makes people afraid to dig bitcoin. but this is what prompted me to continue to support the pursuit of bitcoin. and this is the advantage of today's technology that we should not avoid. and the importance of technology education which greatly affects the mindset of the wider community and survival.

Bitcoin schools might be an option to educate people who don't understand Bitcoin, because it will be difficult for each individual to explain to everyone what Bitcoin is, because it needs sufficient understanding when we have to explain what Bitcoin is.

Others really find bitcoin difficult because there are barriers like the lack of awareness, age, or resources, or some are just not interested but with proper education, it will help them to understand and appreciate bitcoin. What makes some people afraid of bitcoin is because of the misconception that they see on news, but it's always the same, they need to be educated to understand. However, we can't force everyone to like and accept bitcoin, for me it's already good enough to see more people adopting bitcoin.

We all are not the same and Bitcoin is not meant for everyone.

Yeah, it's like "Bitcoin is for anyone, but it's not for everyone".  It stops just short of being a contradiction in terms, heh.  Anyone is free to use it, only it might not be suitable for all people.

We all are not the same and Bitcoin is not meant for everyone. I have friends who know very well about Bitcoin, how it works and everything, but they are still not interested in making use of it and they don’t do that till now.

So, I think if people are not making use of Bitcoin, for the majority of them, it’s something that has to do with the decision they have made for themselves and not about understanding cryptocurrency. And as for those who do not understand it, it takes time and you will have to teach them in a way that it would be easy for them to understand by breaking it down the best way possible.

I understand this feeling,  I still remember the feeling when I first heard of bitcoin from someone, It feels like I'm getting into something interesting and dangerous, the feeling that I will earn  a lot of money and it's not in the right way. This is why I always inform my friends about bitcoin if they are interested into it, not because I wanted them to try using bitcoin cause I felt like I will sound like a creep forcing them to use it. I specifically don't talk about bitcoin to those who I didn't personally know I will sound worst to them. The challenge here is we are already surrounded with the ads and scams about bitcoins, if you casually and force people to listen to you about bitcoin, they will feel like you are one of those scammers. So it's a no for me if no one is asking and interested.

I agree it is a waste of time to try to force people to adopt and use bitcoin if they are not comfortable doing it, personally I think there are two factors that are slowing down adoption and the only way around it is to wait.

The first one is the generational gap, many older people still do not feel at home using new technologies and most likely this is not going to change, so we need a generational change and that those people get replaced by the younger people of today that will feel at home using bitcoin, the other factor is that many people do not really feel the need to use bitcoin because they trust in fiat, so that trust needs to be broken and the fastest way to do that is with an economic crisis.

The problem with most people out there is they are believing into the hear says from other people talking about negativities with Bitcoin making them be afraid to get engage with it. They are always being hesitant to insist on trying to know Bitcoin more because they are already being discouraged and losing interest on what they basically hearing from other people's point of view that most of those statements are over exaggeration already and they are being lead into misconception and misinformation. The only thing that is possible for them not get afraid with it is to duly educate them on what is the reality about Bitcoin to cancel out all the misconception and misinformation they have got from other people. If only they would know the truth, then they will be the one to decide whether they will get engaged on it or not.

Lots of people are still unaware of btc or crypto in general because they don't have any interest to know about it because it is very easy if they truly have that interest, there are lots of banner advert of crypto in the internet enough for any curious mind to want to research and know more but that has not being the case with many people, i think it has to do with individual mindset, some people are kin to learning new things and discover more and others are very comfortable with what they already knew so they find it difficult to explore.

That is so good of you to think like that.

Most of the people I know would not care and ask me why should we make them comfortable using Bitcoin since we did like using it despite it being "uncomfortable". I am also one of those since they are the ones who taught me about it and I end up finding my own sources of information about it, usually, it is this forum. If they really liked using it, they will find a way. Don't point where they should go, let them explore it.
It is better for them to go to the forum here than for others who may get the wrong information.  This is also the only place where I learned almost everything I learned about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.  Yes, I also try to explore outside of this forum.  But the discussions here are really different that you can understand because of the guidance and assistance of the members.  It is also okay to do self-study but it is also difficult because sometimes it is difficult to understand complex things.

I have a friend who even though he knows how to use a smartphone, he still really does not know something like securing his accounts especially the e-wallet app and its importance.  I just remember that if he still does not have enough knowledge in such a thing, what if I immediately share with him this world I have.  So whatever we know we will also share with them so that we can also help and of course they will also be aware because I know it is only right that they should be given knowledge as well.

That's what I am trying to say.

This forum is one of the first sources of knowledge about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as well. I don't have that much knowledge about wallets and all that I am just using an wallet from exchange in the past since I am scared to use other wallets. Exploring this forum, I learned that there are a lot of ways for me to store my cryptos and take care of them.

I think getting a mentor is a way out of troubles in learning how to use bitcoin, It will be extremely complex to a mediocre to use it even for a mere  transaction talk-less of trading and hodling it.
Popularizing it with advert is just to seek it attention to people however my believe is getting people involved in practical aspect of using it for various purposes is the real deal which can only be accomplished by seeking the knowledge from a learned person, personally nobody taught me how to use it I have to rigorously educate myself on it although me a while before I was able to accomplish it.

Lmao, let them be it then, you dont have to force your beliefs and things on anyone.
Yeah this is what I'm talking about since then, if someone does not care to something don't tell him anything about it. It is really embarrassing how people will just ignore your stories, your topics about crypto related stuff then one day they will just come up to you like " hey bro, remember what you told me about this...." I learned myself that you don't need to force things out for them, if they show even a little interest to crypto then that's the time you wanna tell them something that you know about it.
This is exactly what I learned on my past experience sharing my stories on my friends on the time that bitcoin hasn't reached in the media before/after it hits its ATH. They really don't show any interest in my crypto related stories before and after that, I keep the grinding and keeping it all over me until they show interest in it and keep asking me about my experience in it and how they can get profit from it. I feel that they just asked because they know they can get profits from it as If it is very easy to get a profit from crypto.

Those people who don't want to know the process don't deserve the right to get the success they have been wanting.

Bitcoin is generally a coin that is good for our daily and future transactions, but I do notice that some class of people fine it difficult to go into trading and buying of bitcoin, I really don’t understand the problems.

I hope this is understandable to us.

In my opinion, in an investment project, especially small and medium investors, the main consideration for investors is the safety of their investment funds with direct control over their investment, the speed at which their investment funds turn out and the amount of profit they get.

If you understand something, it's not gambling but it becomes based on knowledge. If you want to invite other people to invest in Bitcoin make sure you understand and have experience in bitcoin so that when a discussion occurs you are seen as an expert.

I don't think this the right word to use "mediocre" just because some have not shown interest or are not willing to try, everyone has right to their interest and preferences,  don't expect people to just jump into everything the come across online especially when it is very east to scam people like that,
@op i believe there are some certain things you don't get involved with yourself as part of your personal preferences, should you be considered as a mediocre person!.

It takes time for people to get used to new technology as in the case of internet and technology.

We can accelerate this process by marketing cryptocurrencies and expanding the network of businesses that accept payments with Bitcoin. Once they see it everywhere they will have to learn how to use it.

This is one way that the increase in adoption of cryptocurrency and bitcoin will continue, if we keep publicizing a group or organization that is making use of bitcoin so that other groups that ate thinking of the introduction of the payment can be encouraged as they are not the only one into it. This is nicevthing to do, like the Amazon and some others.

Yeah, not everyone is like you who jumps at opportunity if they have the chance. These mediocre that you are mentioning might be the most calculating because they do not jump the shark that quickly, testing the waters is a good measure in my opinion. Just because you want people to know about bitcoin does not mean that your wishes will come true. Everyone moves at their own pace so no point in whipping them to work. Educating someone about something is better than preaching it.

Another case could be is that they might have heard scams, how prices falls etc and due to which they may be scared about it. But if made them aware about the real facts and also if there is a proper regulations for the government this will encourage them to start investing or using the bitcoin in their life.

Buying and trading Bitcoin isn't really a problem to anyone who is at least a little bit computer literate and uses other services like online banking. If someone faces problems with those things, they probably best to stay away from Bitcoin, because it only gets harder after making your first steps. Not everyone has to be their own bank, a lot of people have very poor security practices or easily make mistakes with technology, so they are bound to lose money with Bitcoin in long term.

Your English is broken and you are calling other people "mediocre". This is cringe. Grin

You're contributing quite nicely towards the deterioration of the English language as well.  Unless you can find me an English teacher who would agree "This is frown" or "This is smirk" are valid sentences, maybe consider not lecturing others about their grasp of the language.


Trying to understand the concept and the technology behind Bitcoin isn't that hard.The hard thing is to trust that concept and invest your time,efforts and money into Bitcoin.

But embracing the concept is harder than simply understanding it.  Most people understand the meaning behind "Not your keys, not your coins" but fewer people change their behaviour to demonstrate that understanding.  Merely moving funds into Bitcoin isn't enough.  Because chances are people will just lose those funds and end up disillusioned because they were approaching it all wrong.  They have to adapt their mindset and their behaviour in order to get into Bitcoin safely.

Many people can't do that.  It's wrong to assume they all can.  Some people have spent their entire lives relying on banks and they don't know how to function any other way.  They aren't ready to just dive in to Bitcoin and pretend everything will be okay.

Why do so many people experience difficulties when trading or buying Bitcoin, I think the problem is that many people don't
fully understand Bitcoin. Therefore, education about Bitcoin is needed, so knowledge of Bitcoin will be known by many people.
More and more people understand about Bitcoin, will reduce the amount of mediocre people which is still a lot today. Bitcoin
can be used for daily transactions, if there are many people getting educated about Bitcoin.

Self study is the key.

I know it is hard but educating people who aren't interested at all will be useless. If you want to teach people then there is nothing wrong with them but only few are interested to learn it. Let the people learn it themselves if they really are interested to learn it.

Every single human makes use of money, I want every one to make use of bitcoin such as they do with money. I hope this is understandable to us.
Fiat money is possible for every human to use but for every single person to make use of Bitcoin is almost close to impossible. Take note that there are some parts of the world that doesn't have any access to the technology we are using right now to transact Bitcoins. There are some remote areas who doesn't have any smartphones right now. Don't expect for this to happen because it will never happen. One thing more is that people maybe more comfortable if they will just use fiat money to their daily transactions.

mediocre means normal or average type of people (credits to google for that) that can be true . most of us that are involved here are can be considered as above mediocre due to our skill and thinking that we easily understand btc but there are also average people that learn and now involved on here .  we are also cautious but after finding out that bitcoin is safe , we started using it but being cautious still remain on us because we are also curious on other coins and crypto/blockchain products .

There is no need to force everyone to use Bitcoin either. Just let them learn what it is and decide where they can use it.

Exactly. If it would be me, I would definitely refuse to use it without having enough knowledge nor proof that it could make someone's life so easier. I think people will only understand if he/she has the willingness to learn about Bitcoin. If he/she has the interest, the urge of willingness to learn will come next. Even if no one will teach this person, he/she will make a way to find out through research and other informative platform about bitcoin and other crypto currencies. It only needs a constant reading and research and try, see for yourself the benefits and the risk in it. There are lots of mistakes from the start, but failure is only being made to make us more efficient in everything we do, not just here in bitcoin industry but in real physical life that we are living.

Bitcoin is generally a coin that is good for our daily and future transactions, but I do notice that some class of people fine it difficult to go into trading and buying of bitcoin, I really don’t understand the problems. How it the advice to them, And what do we think we should do to make some people understand bitcoin more better. Some mediocre do hear of bitcoin and see some advertising online, but they are still afraid, I really want everyone including mediocre to comfortable with bitcoin and make use of it in their daily transactions, Every single human makes use of money, I want every one to make use of bitcoin such as they do with money. I hope this is understandable to us.

People,who don't understand Bitcoin are not "mediocre". They are just cautious.Trying to understand the concept and the technology behind Bitcoin isn't that hard.The hard thing is to trust that concept and invest your time,efforts and money into Bitcoin.
Bro,try to improve your English.Are you using Google Translate?Your English is broken and you are calling other people "mediocre". This is cringe. Grin

Everyone has anxieties and fears, that must be more so to do with money.

If indeed ordinary people, know Bitcoin through you, give them an understanding of Bitcoin first about yours, I mean investing / trading that you do every day, show them the profits and transactions you make that it's real.

Over time they will have a strong desire for Bitcoin and they will buy Bitcoin to trade every day, direct them periodically from the price down to buy until the price goes up that they sell and so on, that's the general way for them / ordinary people to transact with Bitcoin.

It all comes to how far someone is willing to learn about bitcoin. The sad thing is that you will find some people who are well informed about ponzi schemes but don't know much about bitcoin and yet they receive payments from the said ponzi schemes through BTC.

Ponzi schemes are massively advertised and shilled unlike bitcoin. The promoters or creators of ponzi scheme even go to an extent of calling for conferences to educate people and communities about their ponzis but this is not the case with bitcoin and it's the reason we have a huge knowledge gab when it comes to out beloved coin.

Sadly the Bitcoin concept isn't excluded in MLMs.

A friend of mine used to invest in one called BitKingdom. Well, no surprised that thing collapsed afterwards.

They feel difficult to understand it because of the negativity that they've heard about it. Once they've heard about those scams and other news about hacks which involves bitcoin, that makes them feel uncomfortable.
We don't have to make them understand it if we have already explained it to them. Just the same in my case, I've got people who have listened to me as I explain what bitcoin is. But how many from more than 10 people that I've talked to about bitcoin continued? only 1 who's still holding.

It takes time for people to get used to new technology as in the case of internet and technology.

We can accelerate this process by marketing cryptocurrencies and expanding the network of businesses that accept payments with Bitcoin. Once they see it everywhere they will have to learn how to use it.

We do all hope for that kind of adoption to happen and we are just still 10 years of its existence.In talks of those people who doesnt have the chance on knowing bitcoin then its neither they are afraid or just really

lack up some information towards it.There are lots of factors that do affect along the way ex. finances,accessibility(internet connection), government, own view and comparing between it to fiat.

We are all hoping for the best but there are things which cant really happen on what you wish for.Just let it be and wait for the right time because adoption cant really happen in just in flick of a finger.

Also, just accept that there are people cant really able to know about Bitcoin but as awareness do become bigger then the rest would really be anticipated.

I wonder why you use the word mediocre for such people.  Is it mediocre on just the understanding of Bitcoin or mediocre in all other areas of life? I think people who don't understand Bitcoin would most likely be good in certain other areas of life. Lots of them probably don't see the need for Bitcoin yet,  it isn't explained well enough to them, it doesn't interest them,  they are just cautious etc..
I believe when people find Bitcoin unique, secure, very useful, easy-to-use, etc... and that they can use it with little to no problem,  they will likely attract others people.

Hi,

You need to write better. There are too many misspellings in that text. Many people won’t read it just because of that.

As for the content, I would also like that more people understood bitcoin and used it but I don’t agree with you calling them mediocre. Warren Buffet doesn’t like bitcoin, is he mediocre? I think it’s the other way around. Some people are very intelligent and don't buy bitcoin

Because we do not all have the same situations or restrictions on buying bitcoin, some of us here buying bitcoin is easy peasy, but some people hard for them to buy because of some limitations in their country. We can't force someone to use bitcoin. Our only duty is to knowledge them if they want to. As long as they know what is bitcoin and how to use it.  It's on them to decide whether to use it or not.

Some of them are still afraid because of the misunderstanding about the bitcoin. This misunderstanding about bitcoin is caused mostly by the news or other newbies on bitcoin that got scammed. Incomplete details on the news and newbies sharing wrong information about bitcoin can cause the afraidness of people that surrounds them.

I think I understand what the OP is referring to.  The thing that worries me is that certain services do effectively turn Bitcoin into a two-tier system. 

All the people who understand the importance of "not your keys, not your coins" and are sensible enough to store their funds securely in a wallet where only they have access to the keys and make appropriate backups gain all the advantages Bitcoin has to offer.  Total autonomy over your wealth, incredibly strong security, fairly decent privacy, etc.

Those who don't take the time to learn, who keep the entirety of their funds stored in some third-party custodian like webwallets or exchanges because it's "easier" are the ones who get the second-class service.  They're the ones who lose out every time there's a data leak of personal or financially sensitive information.  Or, worse still, lose their funds when a service suffers a security breach or they fall victim to a phishing site and mistakenly give out their login credentials.

The likelihood is, as adoption increases, we'll see an ever-growing number of users who don't take the time to learn.  More potential victims.  I'm actually pretty skeptical of the very notion of mass adoption now.  Particularly after that Twitter hack where far too many idiots willingly handed over their funds to obvious scammers because they genuinely believed a celebrity was going to give them free money.  It seems people generally can't be trusted with the responsibility of being their own bank.

Mass adoption, in the sense most people here dream of it, would be an unmitigated catastrophe, in my opinion.  The world isn't ready yet.

First of all I do believe that it's impolite to call people: mediocre.
Secondly I do think that you are referring to : Middle class people.
The things is , bitcoins is a volatile asset and these people don't really want to invest into something without prior knowledge, which could have drastic results. At the same time we have to make them understand:
The way it works
How it's completely safe
Share your own personal experience
Tell them the benefits of bitcoins
Etc...
You have to ask them what they are afraid of, then explain it to them.

Not everyone in the world is computer literate as you think. I admit that when I have a friend who asks me what Bitcoin is and how he can get into it. He thought it was a job. Even I do not know how to start but I think he should start with the basics first what it really means and how it works. I don't tend to let others know about it because I know not everyone is interested in it. But as I said, I just let them come spontaneously and then I will just share with them whatever I know and teach them as well.

I have a question to you - assume I am a layman and don't know anything about bitcoin. I have just heard the name couple of times in internet.

Now if you want to educate me about bitcoin, what will be your approach? Will it be as a currency or as an investment? Think deeply before you make an answer! We have better currencies available in the market than bitcoin and we have better investment options available as well. So think what will be your point in educating someone about bitcoin as in why they should use it!

Accept it or not, Bitcoin is really difficult to understand if you will going to start from scratch. We are too luck now that interfaces of modern apps are doing a great work to make it easy for new people to transact using bitcoin.

Before, you need to really understand too much and the UI/UX is not appealing.

So for new people that want's to understand BTC, the very first thing that I recommend is for them to join here. The same way as how I learned most of the concept in bitcoin.

I know your intentions are good for everyone who wants to understand about using Bitcoin, but it all depends on how they want to understand and learn about how to use Bitcoin or how to transact Bitcoin properly, I think you have to really understand something in a place and country where you come from, because not all countries can use Bitcoin, so if in your country Bitcoin is legalized by your government, I suggest you hold a seminar and get everyone together and discuss how to use Bitcoin and how Bitcoin works properly and properly.

Not everyone will be into Bitcoin as they'll think it's a bubble always ready to burst any minute, that's a fact. Education about Bitcoin should be a trend first before a FOMO on just dragging people without the knowledge they really wanted to know.

Well, it's not that bad to be dragged into it but the thing is those people who have been rekt, scam or any relation on it they make the image of Bitcoin like it was the reason they experience it. Bitcoin was just a medium after all, it's always on our hands if something like being rekt when bear season comes or we have been scammed for not having enough knowledge.

bitcoin is actually at an advanced level and for sure can't be used by people without a good education level. But the same applies FOR ANY TECHNOLOGY! I mean if you look on the past, any technology at a certain point is able to escalate and becoming available for all people. before it it's just used from "expert".
few examples.
-create a website, now it's full of tools that allow anyone to create any website (from shop to personal blog) in few hours. You don't need to known everything about coding.
-Smartphone as a product now are widely distributed but in the past having a cellphone was a very expensive technology and not easy to use for everyone.

any technology require these steps before it can be adopted by the mass. it's just matter of time and we will see some applications that allow "everyone" to use without worries.

Educating the people is the only way to make them to be comfortable with bitcoin. What you expect with people, because cryptocurrencies at the moment is very big. Right now we're in the early days of cryptocurrency adoption, so it takes time to use bitcoin on daily day transactions. Stores with cryptocurrency acceptance is very low around the globe. Another thing for such a fear among people is the negative things happening relative to bitcoin.

I you are wondering to convince 100% world's population to use Bitcoin then you are wrong. It isn't possible anyway. There is a lot of peoples who hadn't used the internet ever even they have facilities. So, how you will convince them? Those peoples know about Bitcoin but not involved with it, simply means they aren't well aware of Bitcoin technology. It's just not a currency like other currencies. It is a decentralized financial system and you are your own bank. It's quite important to explain how it works. Most people are worried about volatility IMO. So it would be quite difficult to convince them, I had tried for a few colleagues but they don't like due to volatility. Even they don't encourage us to learn about bitcoin technology. So there will be a few mediocre people always like this.

The use of the bitcoin is now widely spreading which is a good thing also there are some people already adopt the use of the bitcoin and there is does not so what are the possible things you may do to encourage them to use the bitcoin give them different benefits the use of it like.

1. Monitored transaction
2. Fast transaction
3. Low transaction fee
4. No tax
5. Secured

So what are the benefits of this in their daily lives, in some places in the world the use of the bitcoin is already conquering and some of them already support the use of the bitcoin as a mode of payment and already have a bitcoin ATM to make easier transactions.

I really want everyone including mediocre to comfortable with bitcoin and make use of it in their daily transactions, Every single human makes use of money, I want every one to make use of bitcoin such as they do with money.

It's technically different to use Bitcoin than one would use fiat or card. Unlike cards your own Bitcoin is not insured and you have to be careful how you handle it. The block time and how transaction fees work (and the difference from exchanges' withdrawal fees!) also may be hard to understand at first.

But I also understand your point. The most praised wallets are quite complex for newcomers and especially if they are not used with computers and applications on the daily basis they may get scared or simply make mistakes. But sooner or later good and easy wallets will pop up. They have to. Just lately the developers were more oriented in adding LN for example.
