Due to the lack of government control, terrorists and extortionists are also utilising the cryptocurrency space to their advantage. “Bitcoins users on either end of a transaction can remain relatively anonymous and cybercriminals have found ways to mask their addresses, so it can be difficult for government authorities and companies to trace such illegal activities,” says Reshmi Khurana MD and Head of South Asia, Krollsays, a cyber security and risk consultation firm.

Unlike other investment avenues, cryptocurrencies are not regulated by government entities or banks. “There is no authority like Sebi that you can approach for grievance redressal,” says Vikram Pandya, Director, Fintech, S.P. Jain School of Global Management. Sharma concurs, “If we buy something with a credit card and get ripped off, we can call the bank and ask to be compensated. But if we get ripped off in a bitcoin transaction, it is impossible to get the money back.”   this cases is  maybe..

The problem is apparent: If global bankers don’t understand the phenomenon, retail investors might not have much of a chance either. So what should you do? Follow the simple yet profound wisdom of Warren Buffett—if you don’t understand it, don’t invest in it.

The lack of clarity about its origin is another big issue related to bitcoin. In olden days, highly priced metals like gold, silver, etc. were used as currencies. Then came currencies printed by governments (or central banks) and these are called ‘fiat currencies’. Though its proponents claim that cryptocurrency is ‘mined’ using complex mathematical formulae, they are reluctant to call it a commodity. They also claim that it is not controlled by any government and so, it is ‘democratic’.

Investing in cryptocurrencies involves very high risk, as prices have been extremely volatile. Many experts are sceptical about bitcoin as an investment primarily because there is nothing for them to analyse. Vivek Belgavi, Partner and Fintech Leader, PwC says, “There isn’t enough of an ecosystem surrounding bitcoins to allow fundamental analysts to study it as an investment. People are therefore investing with imperfect information and joining the herd of speculators.”

Because lots of people need to pile in with their money.  So other people can take the profits.  If they don't then there won't be profits.

People are against bitcoin because:
 
Bitcoin is volatile
There is no governing body for bitcoin
Bitcoin industry is the latest revolution and people would take some time to understand  the concept

The same people don't understand why it's so important that there is no governing body for btc.

Some people do not like bitcoin because they do not know the positive feed back and what it helps to those who like ours.

It is in our nature that we resist change when we first encounter it. I think this is one aspect. Another is that they think Bitcoin lacks security in terms of its transactions. However, what we can do to help them is to educate them on how will Bitcoin benefit their lives.

I'm trying to understand why are so many people against bitcoin?  is it the innovation that scares them? the feeling of staying behind? the fact that that money will go to the wrong hands?

Why they're against bitcoin? because they don't fully understand what bitcoin is all about and how it work.

Because they don't know about bitcoin, they see some people who are jealous because they're getting richer because they're investing in bitcoins, so they're against it.
