1. Blockchain has a long way to go to be a practical solution
Businesses will not miss the opportunity until the technology demonstrates its scalability. However, this can not be proven in the real world until the companies make the leap and produce a concrete result, not an experiment. Moreover, not all industries will benefit from blockchain, while other industries may face a costly and time-consuming conversion process so they choose blockchain over a network. now available.
2. Too easy to join
The real concern with a low barrier to participation is that there is no way to ensure that this technology will not become obsolete for several months. This is another reason why businesses have not implemented blockchain technology. Why invest in a blockchain while only a few months later will have a better blockchain next generation? Replacing and upgrading can be costly and time consuming.
3. Very few tangible means value of crypto.
One of the biggest misconceptions with digital currency is its mass acceptance of tokens, meaning that they are successful. Unfortunately, using a virtual currency does not necessarily generate revenue or profit for developers behind the token. Furthermore, blockchain technology tends to hold long-term potential values, not the token itself. Therefore, buying into a token that does not actually acquire ownership in the base blockchain does not make sense to the investor.
4. Tax situation is a nightmare
Investing in the crypto algorithm means that you need to track the increase and decrease in capital for each transaction. Even using your token to purchase goods and services will also serve as a taxable service, in line with the Tax Administration's tax guidelines.
Are you the author a Vietnamese with the name Tuan ?
I wish to add 1 more ridiculous reason from Vietnam. Here in my country, media calls cryptocurrencies "virtual money" (tiền ảo)
That cunning word makes people have really bad prejudice about cryptocurrencies and they do not want to learn or to care about blockchain nature of cryptocurrencies anymore. Many of the others hold or join cryptocurrencies just because they are greedy for a super profit.
I have a friend, an older friend. He joined Onecoin, Swisscoin, BEC, Bitkingdom ... all kinds of MLM "virtual money" scam and he does not have even a satoshi in his electronic wallet. He does not want to care Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple ... or anything I introduced. Because he thinks those things are not for sure and "guaranteed" profit. He loves the MLM commission and has no idea about genuine cryptocurrencies for years.
I am also a victim of the cunning media in Vietnam with their super word "virtual money".
In 2010, I began to notice Bitcoin. But I did not have much time to find or read about blockchain. So my initial interest was immediately extinguished after I read some news that called Bitcoin "virtual" money and warned the people about scam.
Just until 2016, I came to read about Bitcoin and blockchain. I knew it was a new era. But it was too late to make millionaire dream come true.
Yes, "virtual money" ! That is the word they call cryptocurrencies in Vietnam. Many of people think "WTH ? Even
real money can be lost, how can
virtual money be safe ?"
This is the main problem that people do not trust in cryptocurrency. When they do not see their money and they have no control over their wallets and also depends upon internet that’s why they afraid of losing their real money. Those who studied and know the benefits of cryptocurrency have invested their money in it but ordinary people who are unaware of cryptocurrency and do not know anything about this world are not investing in it.
