For me the biggest problem and I also see that in my surroundings.

Is just Bitcoin got to expensive for the normal people, even for me who is really interested in the concept,
it's hard to acquire some bitcoins because I have little to no income!
Most people don't wanna risk 400$ for a Bitcoin

They are not forced to buy a whole bitcoin. Buying part of a bitcoin is also good.
For me the problem with bitcoin is the lack of branding/promotion. This should be executed better.

You can just buy a fraction of a bitcoin, e.g. $10 worth of bitcoin, or whatever you want to spend.

For me, probably the transaction confirmation times. That is one the biggest wow or attractive factors with bitcoin for myself personally. It is getting too long.

yeah, it's also my biggest problem, especially when I really need money to buy something Grin

then I have to wait for miner to confirm my transaction, but I think it depends on your lucky and today I just need less than 30 minutes for the confirmation Grin

If you use blockchain, you can send bitcoins even if the transaction is not confirmed. I agree that it takes time but if you need bitcoins urgently, you can ask the sender to add a high fee so that it gets confirmed soon.

And how regular ppl show now what fee is correct? Most will use whatever fee is set by default by their wallet software. If this is wrong fee, then how should be it set, and why wallets have it wrong?

My biggest problem with bitcoin currently is the apparent difficulty to remove the influence of Borgstream.

3. Bitcoins can be used to buy physical items but they cannot be used in physical stores.

Long Confirmation time
Least Popular
Cannot use to buy physical things
Price volatility

The points you have stated aren't actually real problems of bitcoins.

1. Confirmation time depends on the fee and if you add a huge fee, your transaction is confirmed within few minutes.

2. Bitcoin is not less popular today and most of the people who I have met have already read about it and know about it. That's true that they don't read positive stuff about the currency.

3. Bitcoins can be used to buy physical items but they cannot be used in physical stores.

4. That's the advantage of using bitcoins as if today you buy 0.01 BTC for $4 and tomorrow the price reaches $10, you have earned at least $6 profit. It can drop as well but that's why many do use it.

the biggest problem for me is that bitcoin sometimes faces problems such as now a block size debate, also i honestly think that in the future bitcoin will have no problems at all

you are thinking in the future with bitcoin no problems will be there, but I think in the future bitcoin will have many problems because that time there will came another coin and it will have more secure, which secure don't have bitcoin, those security will have another digital coin.

I agree that lack of adaptation is the primary problem with Bitcoin at the moment. While the adaptation of computers and technology is now pretty common, it is not to the point where people can completely comprehend Bitcoin. The main complaint I hear from my peers IRL is insecurity and it's volatility. Hopefully with the new consensus that will change.

Some people take an advantage on bitcoin feature such as use bitcoin to buy illegal stuff due bitcoin almost untracable they can use bitcoin for evil things. Okay so abusing bitcoin feature being the problem currently.
And about merchants that adopt bitcoin as payment , i think it's growing now. Not stuck at least.
