It is not that they are against Bitcoin, it is as a reason that includes inability to operate  a block chain technology account. Many people who tend to be against Bitcoin might have view the simple task of maintain their wallet as a cumbersome task. Such people only want an easy going less stressful way of just having Cash at their disposal, so that they don't waste time for such investment. Some are discouraged by the Government that is not yet in support of the Crypto currency in some countries, while the banks on their own been afraid of what impact the Crypto currency can cause to their daily business, have also try to warn people to beware of bitcoin.All these with others may cause people to be against Bitcoin, but still does not stop investment into bitcoin, as many are on daily bases investing in Bitcoin.

I think they not against bitcoin, but they don't know what is bitcoin?, why they must joint bitcoin?. Else some people don't believe it.
Or their country not allowed bitcoin, just that. Because of that reason, I don't thing so they against bitcoin.
Sometimes people fight bitcoin because they do not know the benefits of bitcoin, but if they know bitcoin and what are the benefits then it is they will understand about bitcoin.

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?


Many people ,or some people think bitcoin is scam , why? , they see that it was a joke , for reallt something like that. They don't believe , they scared to invest because they're nervous , they scared that maybe it was just scam or , just like you said it will go to the wrong hands. And I think that they see the bitcoin as fake or what. They dont have the right amount of information to the bitcoin industry.

Probably, this is because all people are afraid and don't trust to bitcoin...especially when investing and trading at high risk, so they don't want to spend money only on bitcoins.

Bitcoin has a bad reputation because it is used currency to buy illegal stuffs and services. Those people only knows that thing since they have lack knowledge on it. Once they know about good things of bitcoin, I am sure that they will accept it and restore its good reputation.

those who are against btc is either no knowledge on btc, doesn't like technology or has its own propaganda..lack of information leaves to doubt especially if person experience fraud or has been told of such..some people have its own agenda in saying bad about something especially in an investment..it may be because he encountered a loss or he wants to gain by saying something bad to lower the price in order to buy it and then silent for a while or support it to make it popular again to increase the price..i forgot the term about it in economics

Some people are against bitcoin because they are thinking of bitcoin is scam. I already heard this thing from a friend who told me about bitcoin that this is a scam thing. I did not inter act with him because I understand his side but deep within I smiled and said to myself he did not know how bitcoin have change my life financially. So for this kind of people I will let them say whatever for bitcoin but I am still trying to work hard and continue to earn bitcoin just to let them see what the change in me because of bitcoin.

I think that the people that are against cryptocurrencies are eighter scared of change, or they are misinformed by mainstream media that is controlled by the people that control most of the worlds wealth now. These people surely are afraid of crypto and a shift of power. Nobody can stop emerging technology, people should rather embrace it instead of being scared and pushing it away.

A lot of normal people I talk to just don't understand bitcoin. At times they first hear of it only for drugs(media/propaganda). Then other times they know someone who has some and just think it isn't worth using(because they can just use visa/mastercard/paypal). Other people I have met have a friendly notion towards taking control of their own money, but not many people want the "hassle" of knowing your private key and all that.

Maybe they don't understand what is all about bitcoin, or they try to understand it but they still not understand that is why some people become against in Bitcoin. Or they are thinking that bitcoin has many disadvatages.

People are not against it, they just have a certain degree of fear that this new investment which is still in an infancy stage might not pay off as it should. However I agree on the fact that there's never any real profite with no risk at all and if you don't try you never know.

people see risks and unreliability and this plays the more important role than having the opportunity to make good money...everyone has their own priorities

It could be because it's a new type of technology that people aren't used to using. They will start to see that it's easy to use.

Some people are against Bitcoin because they aren't as informed about Bitcoin,   maybe they only heard it's name. People  like to resist everything they don't know. They don't  follow innovations very much.

Some people do not like bitcoin because they do not know the positive feed back and what it helps to those who like ours. others have just focused on negative news and false news about it so if they hear the bitcoin scam instantly entering their brain.

“Surf the web?” What did that even mean? At the time I did not live anywhere close to the beach and couldn’t really understand this concept of web surfing. It was clunky and pages were slow to load. There was no way that this was going to be useful. I went back to the library later that day during study hall and read the newspaper. You know, the ones you see in hotel lobbies and occasionally outside of restaurants.
