We have to wait several years before the average Joe will understand bitcoins.
Exactly like Emails  Wink

And when the time will come, everyone here will be among the rich part of the world.

This is the land of wolves now & you're not a wolf
I think everyday people are becoming more comfortable using BTC.   I have been holding BTC for awhile, but not really spending it.   Once I finally spent some on some purchases, I really found out how easy and convenient it is. 

We are at a time where we have become so desensitized to just volunteering personal information all over the internet, and it is super refreshing to be able to just send btc to an address, instead of basically signing your privacy away each time you make a purchase...

99% that buy bitcoin are not going to spend it because they can spend it with their hard earned fiat.
If you do not get paid with btc, i dont see how people will risk using it.

absolutely bitcoin can only be used on electronic transactions, because bitcoin itself does not have a physical form such as now exist currency, bitcoin only convenient means used for electronic transactions,
electronic transactions have requirements include: must have internet connection, must have a PC or notebook, if all the above requirements are met, the use of new bitcoin can comfortably ...
Most fiat transactions are done electronically now. The world becomes more connected through the internet everyday. I don't see this being an issue unless there's a massive power outage, but at that point we will have much bigger problems on our hands.

if there is a massive power outage, then you must have a very large generator sets, so that your electronic transactions will not be disturbed, you can connect to the internet at any time without being interrupted by outages uncharged, but of course requires a generator set fuel source not a little, and even this requires a lot of cost.

Tech savy type should feel comfortable using it by now.

Well the tech savvy can use it but to make people feel more comfortable in general User accessibility is what is important.
Having more users feeling comfortable using Bitcoin
And having easy to access and use user accessibility is the primary goal now.
It might even be better if bitcoin was at a point that tech savvy people were not as inclined to used bitcoin as tech savvy people generally make up a minority of the population.

Minority but growing on the bright side as more of the world starts to come online and begin using the internet globally
So it is in a transition stage but at this point it makes sense to have primary accessibility for all users not just connected users.

I think that people will start to feel much more comfortable using BTC when there are more insurance options and they aren't so scared about having their BTC stolen.   Yes I know that it is your own responsibility to store and secure your own BTC, but that is one of the main reasons that the older generations still trust old school banking systems (because of FDIC insurance).

Very hard question.
I think when Bitcoin become mainstream and media start to report much more about Bitcoin, people will start to change their mind and start using it.
It will took some time, of course, but I hope this will happen soon Smiley

That's why Bitcoin is currently in diapers, next years will still being profitable meanings with Bitcoin Speculation, when the prices gets steady for a long time, that's when people will start being comfortable

Yes I agree.
Bitcoin is still at very early age of development, and many people are still unaware about it.
With more people and industry involved (offering Bitcoin for different services and products), and more media coverage, we will gradually see changes and global acceptance of Bitcoin.

I would argue that people will be comfortable with bitcoin when many more merchants accept bitcoin for payment and offer small discounts for using bitcoin (the merchant would save on CC fees).

True simplicity in design when people recognize it as a legitimate payment mechanism like Paypal or Visa then it will be mass adopted
It's an eventuality that virtual currencies like Bitcoin will attain that position now from 2014 was a bit more uncertain a few years ago though Smiley
Once it becomes more apparent as to how much people are really paying in order to use their debit cards at a merchant people will look to more cost efficient payment methods.

After the price of bitcoin has become high enough and speculation in bitcoin has no profits, then people will feel comfortable to using BTC.

Do you want to buy goods with gold or stocks?
