when people have to get something bad because bitcoin, like the money they get scammer or stolen in large quantities, it would make someone trauma and stop using bitcoin.

that is not it. even if it is the reason that would only work for a very small percentage of people because most people getting in bitcoin will never get out and continue using it.
it is the start that happens hardly because people don't know about bitcoin and are afraid of what they don't know.

This is true, loosing big amount of money in terms of bitcoin can result to users to stop using it because they already lose their trust in bitcoin that is why we need to avoid scammer and we need to have stronger security of each account to be safe our money.

That is not for everyone so it would not refer to the people which in the majority, the only thing that would stop people from using bitcoins is when the bitcoin economy will fall down or it will not be stable as now.

Fear of change I would say is the main reason, paranoia.....well that & the fact the average joe has no need to usd bitcoin. We need more exposure - how I don't know.

Yes, that is the main reason why a lot of people are afraid to use bitcoins. Because it is inherent for a person to be afraid of the things that he is an aware of or the things that he does't have any knowledge on. It is also based on my experience. Every time I offer my friends to use bitcoins, to use bitcoins they don't want it because they said they don't have any idea about it so they might just waste their money.

I don't know, but i think that bitcoin still not so popular, i asked my firends about it and they really don't know nothing expet of name of crytocurrency.

It is not popular because people doesn't have enough knowledge on what bitcoin really is. And maybe some of them are really scared of it.
Because it is a new meta in their minds that hearing it for the first time. But it is possible in the future that they are going to know it when the
people are going to be educated.

It's not about knowledge it's just about lack of advertising for bitcoin into our community, and a lot of people having a problem with the limitations of internet connections. never feeling a surprised when anytime you will get someone does not know about bitcoin.

I would say that there are a lot of advertising in the internet world that many already knows about bitcoin. The thing is that people doesn't really want to know what bitcoin really is, and it is a matter of laziness too maybe, I think. But in advertising, the development team I guess doesn't need that so
the people will going to know it.

That is correct like here in my country internet connection was too expensive but the connection is too slow that is why more people here does not have internet but the bitcoin requires internet connection to get income. And also if people are not interested we can not please them to love of use bitcoin.

it is not yet been advertise too much but i think it will rise up and people's awareness will be cover and after that people will start to understand what is the possibility for this investment and what would be the outcome, just awareness are keeping people to use it.

I think the only reason this is their busy time in the real world. for those who have not sought bitcoin with all of their time or those who have not quit their job, I think they will stop using bitcoin. especially if their income is greater than the income they get from bitcoin, I think that the main reason to stop using bitcoin, but other than that I do not think there is another reason to stop using bitcoin

Time is not the man reason I think, most people don't use it because they are not aware of bitcoin.
Better and more information is needed to make it widely used.

true I think people do not use bitcoin because he did not know anything about bitcoin? Unlike my friends they do not know about bitcoin. certainly he did not join the bitcoin after I told them and they started using bitcoin. I think it is the right reason

Basic issue is lack of knowledge among the people and that is the reason they are not using it, if they are made aware and taught about it then they will surely start using it.

That is really the main reason why people are not using bitcoin and they are not coming to the point that they are stopping. In the beginning they are really not using bitcoin. Because they don't know how to use, how to obtain it and what really it is. So, the world must be educated about bitcoin and let them adopt it so that they can enjoy the use of it.

Upon seeing the over-all population that uses bitcoin, the total sum of all is just 3 million(seeing this in article on reddit) It means there's not even 1% of our current population in the world that aren't aware bitcoin really exist.

The lack of knowledge or the lack of places to use it. Undecided

i think you might be right, a lot of people still dont know what bitcoin actually is, the other part is just afraid to lose their money with it

Most people are reactionary, they will all jump onto bitcoin but only when it is too late. Look at any state that goes into hyperinflation, by the time they want to get things like gold it is way too late.

It's the same as safety. often an accident needs to happen before safety is considered even if it was obvious at the time that these safety features should have already been there.

We can't really blame them for being like that since that trait can also be seen as some kind of a 'defensive mechanism' in terms of our assets since some people really just don't want to risk their assets in something that isn't a sure thing to give profit.

lack awareness is one of the reasons but i think the bigger issue is the negative awareness. which means the negative way that the media is showing bitcoin as. when an average person hears about bitcoin in this way they get scared and they would just stay away, because that is easier thing to do.
