Topic: some people uneducate about Bitcoins - page 6. (Read 841 times)

Don't know then don't love. It was a human disease that could say something before he knew any further. Only bad traits look bad in any way. Even though it's clearly a positive thing, but if you don't like it already, then negative talk and responses become a benchmark in judging something. You don't have to worry about all that, because we need people like that to prove that we are being cared for without having to ask, although from a negative point of view we are certainly grateful, because without them, we are nothing.

If we see them promoting something then we can point out there problem that they are promoting somethings that's why they came to the point hating or giving some bad feedback to bitcoin, but if they are new and doesn't really understand the industry for sure they will say that thing especially we see so many mlm scams or other types of it so its not a surprise that they will think about that bitcoin is the same with those scams.

That's why we need to educate those lose people and make them understand that bitcoin is truly a good choice for them.

Almost all people around me saying that BTC is just a scam or/and a bubble. And when I try to tell them deatils about it and explain BTC they don't want to hear. So most of them will never learn about it. Well, at least we know what to do

Other than what you've mentioned with regards to why people tend to uneducate other with regards to bitcoin, it can also be because they are trying to promote other investment platforms or cryptocurrencies. They try to ruin bitcoin's reputation through spreading false information that is mostly deemed detrimental for the individual listening. As they still exist, we should take on the responsibility of straightening and correcting the things being defined to bitcoin. Whenever we see one trying to uneducate, let us argue with them with supporting evidence so that we will win other people's belief.

I my country all that is blowing away fast, people who tongue lashes bitcoin in where am from right now 80 percent of them are buying or they want to seriously have Bitcoin or any crypto-currency, some wants to have knowledge of it and even how to trade it, I think people are growing up to a dawn of crypto-currency, even when the government tries to retard the growth with bans and police brutality on suspected crypto-currency users, the search for growth, keeps increase the knowledge of many in my country.

Most people are unaware of bitcoin simply because most of them refuse to learn and discover new things. They are enclosed with the idea that bitcoin is a kind of scheme/scam that could take their money away. What they don't know is it ould offer them a lot of benefits if only they would opt to study it. I can't also put all the blame on these people because back then, bitcoin has a bad reputation and was really put in a bad light by those who are against it. There are also a lot of scams that are often forced to be associated with bitcoin, hence, people believe that bitcoin is a bad thing and anything about it should not be entertained upon.

The two things you listed are really the common reasons why people are ignorant about it. Let me add mine for additional information too.

1. They limit themselves to what they already knew and enclosed themselves in the traditional way of earning money, investing, and storing.
2. They refuse to be educated upon by the users who have been in crypto for a long time. They are settled to what they currently have and are close-minded on learning additional information to generate more income.
3. They easily believe the gossips and rumors that are all around the mainstream media without fact-checking whether if it is true or just fake news. They easily assume that what they heard and read is true. Hence, it is always easy for them to assume bitcoin is a scam. They don't even know what is the difference between bitcoin with Ponzi scheme.
4. They simply don't trust a speculative asset because they know all the possible risks of entering something they aren't properly knowledgeable with.

This is the list of things I think why a lot of people are still uneducated on bitcoin. Fortunately, here in our countries, a lot of people are now aware of the advantages bitcoin may bring. Although I just want to remind everyone reading here that bitcoin is not a get-rich-quickly scheme because I think most people thought of it that way. Always be reminded to invest what you can only afford to lose. Be responsible for your funds. No other person can take good care of it except yourself.

Few days ago, I talk to my friend he hates bitcoin and he always says bitcoin will die when bitcoin from 60k$ dropped $30k and it will drop to 0$. But he didn't mention bitcoin from nothing and BTC hit ATH 64k$. I know he has never hold BTC or invested in any project. He feels jealous because the bitcoin's price rise so fast and he doesn't accept it as fact.

Can't blame them, I mean just teaching them solves the problem, we are just too stupid to accept that it's easy to solve that and they find it much easier to make fun or mock these uneducated people. Also, the ignorance of these people leads to hatred towards the unknown in this case, it's bitcoin which only leads to market prices going down since these people that are ignorant are influential together with their hate on bitcoin.

Yeah I think you hit the nail on the head with why people tend to be negative about bitcoin or when it comes to talking about bitcoin.  I think most people whom are negative about bitcoin simply don't understand the technology or it goes against their beliefs..here is my all time favorite quote from Andreas..

"I think many of the intellectually honest people eventually stop being critics, because they suddenly realize that the flaws they are identifying are temporary features, issues, and not inherent problems. There are very few inherent problems in a dynamically evolving design or ecosystem of different designs all competing, that cannot be resolved.  There are critics who criticize this technology primarily based on their world view.   It is politically inconsistent with their world view.  It’s not that they do not like the technology it’s that they do not like the implications of this technology and the primary criticism you get then is “this should not be” to which all I can answer is ..and yet it is.  “but we mustn’t”… and yet we did, “but you shouldn’t”.. but yet we did"- Andreas Antonopoulos.

On the contrary, people in my country have grown eager to learn about Bitcoin, cryptocurrency in general, because of their perceived benefits. Although there are still negative perspectives about it, its volatility is what have caused these mainly. Nonetheless, people have a rather positive outlook toward Bitcoin it is just that its volatile nature discourages them to push through.

Negativity is somehow in our genes and helped human kind survive... however:

Most people know about Bitcoin what they heard on news/TV:
* "bitcoin price goes up"/"bitcoin price goes down"
* bitcoin is used for ransom attacks
* central banks telling that's not OK to have bitcoin and it can make you lose all your money
* this or that (exchange) is hacked and money is stolen

I've seen even smart people who don't trust bitcoin just because they didn't care to read a tad more than what they are fed with by news/TV, so chill...
People will see the truth behind Bitcoin, but it won't be easy nor fast.

They belong to two types:
- People already joined the market, but got scammed or failed into scam projects. So they hate Bitcoin or cypto.
- People have never joined the market. They only watched the market, being curious about the market, feel envious when Bitcoin rises too much.
They hate because they are not part of the market.

Many resources for them to learn. Because they are lazy or hate Bitcoin or don't have belief in Bitcoin, they don't open their mind to learn.

In any game, you can not win if you don't lose first. If you win first, but don't sharpen your knowledge, you will lose all later.

I did lost money in crypto market but my failures don't make me hate Bitcoin and crypto market. My failures are because of me, not the market so I don't have reasons to hate Bitcoin or the market. I hate myself with past stupid mistakes.

It is common to see people with negativity on everything. With cryptocurrency even a highly technology adoptive person will find it hard to believe at the beginning. This is all because of the way bitcoin is being developed.

Next important factor for people to have negative opinion and talk negative about bitcoin is all because of the governments. Very few governments have legalized the usage and the country where it is illegal people who are fearful find it a negative one.

Scams are part of every form of investment. As bitcoin is much associated with internet connectivity people who are new to bitcoin were easily scammed. This is interpreted as bitcoin is scam.

5 years ago I heard about Bitcoins  some feedback are good but some of them are negative

Untill now In my country if you say/discuss about Bitcoins expect that their response are negative.

Why does some people always say negative about Bitcoins?

1. Lack of knowledge about Bitcoins, uneducate People only saw the negative sides of Bitcoins.
2. Some of them say negative feedback because of their experience on some sites about Bitcoins,  because now a days Bitcoin are popular but there are many site will scam you if you are spontaneous to invest in not trusted sites.
