Because they don't understand the true meaning and value of bitcoin. They don't want accept the changes in our technology yet they dont have intention to learn it. Maybe some of them are skeptical to the point not knowing even trying once in their lives.

That's true this is one of the reason why people are against in bitcoin unless they see what is the outcome and result to what we are doing. The changes that happening in our technology they did not accepting it , the main point they don't have intention or willing to learned it.

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?


I think those people who are against bitcoin are those people that do not have a benefits and profits that can get here. Those people are not knowledgeable what really bitcoin is. Either they are against bitcoin because in their perspective bitcoin cannot help them for their everyday life. Those people who are against bitcoin is just a waste of time so do not bother yourself from that kind of people.

Because they may not come into contact with COINS, he has a great dependence on the traditional currency, then may be their national government's attitude towards the currency held against, allowing them to the currency is also have a negative attitude

I think a lot of people that speak bad against is afraid they will be scam or they understimate the true value of bitcoins. They have refuse to accept the fact that bitcoins have come to stay.Is very pity and very hard.

I think the main reason is that a lot of people really have no clue what bitcoin is. I know what you might be thinking: “Great, I can get in ahead of everyone else!” But a misunderstanding about bitcoin, or a complete lack of understanding, could actually yield terrible consequences.

Want an example? How about heightened volatility like we’re witnessing now, or perhaps back in 2013-2014 in the bitcoin marketplace? People might get the broader-stroke concept that bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, but they don’t understand the bigger picture of how it’s challenging monetary theory, or that bitcoin proponents are looking at new ways to secure data and currency transmission. If investors don’t understand these concepts or the risks involved, we could see another Tulipmania-type collapse.

because they still don't know that much about bitcoin yet. well, for me, based on experience, people keep on talking about something that they have no knowledge on. they chose to talk than to understand it first.

and before, when i am not familiar yet with bitcoin, i thinks it's bad because the word bitcoin is related to deepweb and deepweb is actually, like what other people say, somewhat dangerous so i thought bitcoin is dangerous. but its not. its just not legalized yet, but that doesn't make it dangerous.

Maybe the goverment doesn't support Bitcoin or other Cryptocoins and that Bitcoins and other coins can be hacked. Bitcoin, coins and blockchain is frequenty in the news. Positive news will win people's trust I hope. The following post is positive:

One tend to hate what one doesn't understand or feel threatened by its existence. Ignorance and feeling of insecurity by those in financial services sector of the mainstream economy cause the hate.

If you seen X men it's very easy to make you understand, people are scared of what they can't control, or can't understand, Bitcoin has no master, has no authority to control, say it's Rouge, so people are really not ready to believe it will be good for them. Plus add to the fact that there are so many misconceptions about Bitcoins, and there lack of effort to end this misconceptions. Then the price is also a deterring factor, which puts people away and since they can't buy it, they hate it.

You are completely right. Become good people is not always accepted to all people because some bad guy will try to hate you forever.

Same like bitcoin, the most thing that make people against bitcoin because of its volatile.

People who are against bitcoin are the ones who are not yet properly educated or misinformed. Most of them are elderlies who could not embrace change just like the young generation. What we can do is to show them proofs that bitcoin is really working.

Yes, There's still a lot of people who are against or do not believe in bitcoin and what I think of is - it is because of the risk of security. I even tried to discuss this with my friends at work and they do not believe that they can earn money in bitcoin even without any investment

I think the reason behind why many people are against with bitcoin because they have no knowledge and no idea what is digital currency is.They don't believe unless the coin exist and see it from their eyes like gold,But if we try to educate them about bitcoin and discuss the benefits of bitcoin then they will probably believed that bitcoin is Real.

many of those "many people" you see are not against bitcoin. they are actually heavily invested in it but they pretend otherwise. someone who is spreading FUD in 99% of the times wants the price to drop so he can either short bitcoin or because he has some buy orders placed ahead of time at certain low prices.

i honestly can not think of anybody who does not benefit from bitcoin! even banks that some people say are against bitcoin or bitcoin is against them are happy about bitcoin. not only bitcoin introduced blockchain technology to them to improve their business but also it has opened up new ways for banks to make money. banks are in fact making a lot of money because of bitcoin, all these traders are using banks to handle their money transfers and there are lots of them Cheesy
there are so many reason why people are against the bitcoin . The most important reason is because of lack of knowledge and fear of the people about the money people does not believe in bitcoin. I am also one of them who does not believe in bitcoin and I completely against the bitcoin but after some time I realise that bitcoin is very good thing it helps the people to become rich and change the complete economic status of the family .

There are a lot of reasons for the most important reason is most people and not well informed about Bitcoin so they get easily mislead about it. There are some people who do not know much about Bitcoin but still, they are spreading rumors and false information about Bitcoin and thus many people getting scared before even joining it. On the other hand, we have the dark web which holds almost 70% or 80% of the internet and is accepting Bitcoin as a payment. In addition to these problems, we have the transaction fees problem which is not been solved for a long period of time and still not have any time to be solved.
I am strongly agreed that the lack of knowledge is the big and main reason behind why people do not love bitcoin today and why they are against it. It is our moral and official duty to let them know the true meaning of bitcoin, everything has some of good and some of bad points and we can make it clear, people actually do not hate bitcoin but in real they do not know what bitcoin is and how to earn through it in simple and easy way.

Bitcoin is very risky and plus a lack of knowledge about bitcoin makes them fight bitcoin. But once they understand about bitcoin they will start receiving bitcoin.
