And the bitcoin adoption in smaller stores will not be here any time soom, maybe a few here and there but nothing massive. Nothing untill the price is stabilized a little and u till more big companies and businesses adopt it, they need to lead the smaller ones.
Make a t-shirt promoting bitcoin or some other business or something like that, so people see it and eventually get interested to learn more on their own.

I'm sure that these people dont know about bitcoin right now because of it's slow transactions time, I'm pretty sure if dev has solved the scaling problems then we'll see a number of % that know about bitcoin.
bitcoin is very popular and famous currency but some people are not interested in bitcoin because bitcoin requires a lot of time for the transaction but it cannot decrease the value and the importance of the bitcoin because the price of the bitcoin is much higher than the transaction time. Bitcoin is making new features and I am very sure soon it will overcome this problem as well and then bitcoin will be the best currency ever and it will be more popular than before. 
I think it is really good that most of the people don't know what is bitcoin. This means that we are among the 1% (not sure about the percentage) of people that have known bitcoin sooner. That time when all of people know what is bitcoin and need that for their life, the price will be much higher than today. So we will be rich.
Bingo. I get annoyed hearing it so much among bitcoiners so often, but it's very true: we are still early adopters. IMO, scoop up all the coins you still can, and be mindful of opportunities in altcoins to accumulate more bitcoins. Cryptocurrencies aren't going anywhere, and I'm very confident that Bitcoin will remain the king that rules them all.
Yes, we are the early adopters of the bitcoins but I think more people should start using the bitcoins. If more people start adopting bitcoins then the price will be keep increasing and it will also help to grow the bitcoin community.

It is true that there is still a lot of people do not know bitcoin , yet having and setting I big development in terms of bitcoin could be the reason for them to get into Bitcoin. I also the kind of person that needs an explanation and proof before I believe on a something so the best thing to consider is by setting evidence for people to know what Bitcoin really is. 
I called around some stores to see if they accept BTC, no one has even heard of it except like 0.1% of people. Wait till people actually find out this exists...
There are many people in our society that is still not yet aware to the bitcoin. I think 10 years from now before they will have a knowledge about bitcoin. I think we need to make a move to spread our knowledge about bitcoin to the other people.

That was a sad but practically a true scenario in our society. Even though bitcoin has already been widely established, known and popularized worldwide and has been already legalized and used in many countries around the globe, there are still instances that when you ask someone if they know what bitcoin is or if they are accepting bitcoin in exchange of their products and services, they will probably say that they do not know what bitcoin is and if it do really exist. But still hoping that along with the fast growth and rise of bitcoin, many people will soon know bitcoin better. 
I'm sure that these people dont know about bitcoin right now because of it's slow transactions time, I'm pretty sure if dev has solved the scaling problems then we'll see a number of % that know about bitcoin.
I think its pretty normal because not all stores accepts and knows about bitcoin and it really depends where you are from. As far as I know, the stores or restaurants that accepts bitcoins have this logo BTC on the door so before you come in you would know they accept bitcoin. But I do hope most stores would accept bitcoin though.

Its not surprising even on my place this is the situation on which 0% of them didnt even recognize on what is bitcoin and they dont have any idea on it. Everyday i do always search for a store in our place that do accept bitcoin as a payment and until now i havent found even one which is sad but doesnt matter at all because i know when adoption would increase even more ill know that they would accept very soon. 
It is true that currently only a few countries have legalized bitcoin, and not all people are willing to trade using bitcoins, perhaps by the time they are willing to accept payments using bitcoin and must have a big influence in the real world that first recognizes paper currency
The reason why they don’t accept bitcoin is that they don’t have enough knowledge about it or modern world. Those who still don’t know about bitcoin are pathetic. They don’t know key to be a millionaire. I think that is because they are illiterate and don’t stick to any knowledgeable material that give them knowledge about bitcoin or any other technology. But those people must be told about it.

Acceptability by the retail stores will definitely create an avenue for people to know more about bitcoin and crypto currency in general. The bulk of the work are in the hand of Bitcoin users to educate other people on the important of Bitcoin as compared to other currency in the world.

Because it is not yet legal to most of the countries. And the legalization will be the way for the retailers to recognize what Bitcoin is. Or if it will be demanded by their customers. That's the advocacy of Bitcoin, which is to ebcourage more people, organizations and companies to invest, use and be one of the Bitcoin community to make its demand higher. If we will be able to encourage more people, it will be more popular to the market.

I couldn't agree more. I played around with Bitcoin years ago just to see how it worked. I considered making a sizable investment in it at the time (boy I wish I had!), but I honestly thought that if it were to grow and become a real threat to traditional fiat currencies it would be quickly outlawed.
Instead I see the opposite happening. Yes, regulation of crypto in general is coming/here (at least some of which is probably needed, but we need to be careful that regulatory overreach does not occur), but the technology itself is not going anywhere. A certain amount of regulation legitimizes cryptocurrency.
Most of my colleagues have no idea what bitcoin is, despite it being discussed here and there in various (non-crypto specific) financial and technology media. But more are aware of it this year than there were last year, and I expect that will continue until it reaches a "tipping point".
I am confident that blockchain and crypto technologies will reshape society, and we are the 1%, the early adopters.

Every new place which starts to work with bitcoin seemed to be announced here on the forum in press section. But of course they cannot lead every news about it. In my place there is also no any place that would accept bitcoin for payment and I think we will need much more time to some businessman get involved.
Yeah right! Most people don't know this yet, even in public store's and market, are not accepting bitcoin as payment, since there are only few people have broad knowledge on it.. they tend to invest because this might be our money in the future.. and we all agreed that it is not yet recognized by everybody.. investors are craving to collect bitcoins, for they know that the value will rose up higher and higher in upcoming years..
Your right, even if you ask the public about this only afew recognize this. Its because most people hardly believe in this thing because there is a lot of scam in the internet. But once they know how this really works and how bitcoin can help us minimize the waste of time for the services they offer I think many will join this. Jump to:
