I think the major factor why you hate bitcoin or you are against in bitcoin is personal interest perhaps bitcoin is contradicting your beliefs in your current properties or you are afraid that bitcoin might gone anytime so fear becomes your friend just to be safe that is why you are against bitcoin or some random reason that keeps you away from new technology..

People against Bitcoin are those who probably exist on traditional ways of living. I haven't encounter yet those people, perhaps most of my friends and colleague are open minded.

Or perhaps they heard any news or information against Bitcoin and never tried to search for the truth.

You don't find that fewer and fewer people are against it? Just the media advisory has changed significantly in recent months

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?


It depended on how a person looked at it.
However as I know, people?... Not! (but government especially the banks).
Because, they consider bitcoin potentially disruptive to banks, that it disrupts the need for a bank to intermediate transactions.

In my own opinion, people are not totally against in bitcoin they just do not believe that people can earn money here and thinking bitcoin is just a scam, from what they are hearing in the internet or news. That's why there are some countries bans bitcoin or considering bitcoin as illegal.
I think the mean reason that people are against it are actually not aware of it or there is no room for them for the technology. some people from rich class with businesses based on fiat already made connection with bitcoin, and they are ready to accept new things, like always there will be traditional people who will never agree with something new that they don't understand, this people will rather lose everything they have then to advance with time. They are actually not use to of it and not want to do something different.

Maybe they dont know yet bitcoin, or they are afraid to invest on bitcoin, because maybe they had a bad experience about something on internet before. One thing for sure is, once they learn about btc they will love it

Every investment requires experience and skills. Most people are against Bitcoin because they lack education, practice, and information.

Some people didn't know about bitcoin, so if they heard about it they against that, more speculation you heard, they said bitcoin is not true. But if someone teach about bitcoin learn about bitcoin. Many of us can learn about it, more of us now like bitcoin. Because now a days important to us to know about bitcoin, to know what is latest. So their are no one will can late to know everything.

Yes, there are so many people that against bitcoin. There are a lot of them, but im sure that they has a different reason behind it. I can tell you a few reasons based on my experience. The one reason behind is because of their lack of knowledge about bitcoin. It makes them against bitcoin becuause of it is new to them and thinking that it is scam or  it's just nothing to do. Second is, because of their job. There are a lot of them who has a great job and a great salary. They are not really against bitcoin, the truth is they just dont have a time and they are not interested because they have already a better job and good income. And they are contented on it.

It's because of fake news in internet and also they are not aware of real fact of bitcoin/block chain. So they are getting afraid of scam. But its not like that. Those who are all against bitcoin, they are missing the huge opportunity of their life. They just think that bitcoin is mostly used for crime and only see bitcoin from the negative side.

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

I think it's because of the many "fake" ideas and misconceptions that has been tied up with bitcoin in the past years. I mean, I have seen many media reports and write-ups saying that bitcoin is a scam or that people should be doubtful and weary with actually investing in it. I think these kinds of news destroyed bitcoin's credibility with people. I know it's not the same as the usual money, and like any other thing, it has it's cons, I think that whatever cons it has, it is outweighed by all the good things it can potential bring.

People are against bitcoin because they have no idea what bitcoin do.And also they always see bitcoin is being used in many criminal activities.And also they don't know about bitcoin benefits.Some people are against its because they lack behind of crypto currency and now they think they don't have time to use it.That's why so many people are against bitcoin

Well the answer is quite simple. People are against bitcoin because they can not grasp the change. They can not accept the fact that there is more improvement than what we have in our system in money. Some people are against bitcoin because they lack knowledge about it, they thought bitcoin is only used for illegal transactions which makes the name of the crypto dirty. Some feels that they are too late to start because of the price.

I think it's just because some people felt they are left out at the beginning and they think it's too late for them to comes in and as a result, they decided spreading hate comment about bitcoin.
Also, some people are not happy as they see new millionaires emerge from bitcoin and they has to stop bitcoin but instead bitcoin continue to gain more popularity

They hate it because they don't understand it. Once they learn about bitcoin they will start to appreciate it and refrain from hating it.

You can't blame people against it, especially those people who are scam victims, those who encountered bitcoin in a negative news, Fuds, such as illegal activities, this is a money involvement, people are conservative when it comes to this.
