Most of btc users speak english, because that's who I speak to.  I don't know 1 Russian bitcoiner...it all depends where you're interacting with these people.

Well, speaking English is not a proof on any nationality because people around the world speak it as a second language. so you can not use it as a proof that there are no Russians using bitcoin

You should know that the Russians are quite present on the internet.
Since their government limit them, they are turning to cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin for their transactions.

I would assume this is because the Russian currency isn't that strong and Russians want an alternative, a majority of other alternatives currently block Russian users while Bitcoin does not.

Unfortunately a lot of online scams originate from Russians hence why most other alternative money solutions have decided to block them.

OP, any proof on this to carry on your topic?
Just because you might have seen some Russians in a chat or a website, you thought that most users are Russia-based?

This topic is necessarily meaningless; the science of demography requires detailed information on individual participants, something which can and should never be obtained in a system designed to protect anonymity.

So random...
And this topic become a useless one without a valid statistics about the real number of bitcoin users and where they live and how much they have, everyone claiming he know this information is lying and everything is just a false speculation

I guess, because somebody here is sick with chauvinism. Can't find another explanation. See a doctor, dude, ASAP.

Russia might be the country where bitcoin is much used even though the country has opposed it. But in reality I believe Chinese were the most users of bitcoin.

I don't think that's a very good comparison to be honest.
That's actually a really bad statistics to identify the number of bitcoiners in a country because it's only here in Bitcointalk.

Let's see here. I'm pretty sure not all chinese people are in this forum because it's mostly dominated by English-speaking people.

I think most bitcoin users are not the people of Russia, very many bitcoin users from other countries are countless and I think China still has the largest bitcoin users besides russian  Smiley

Not surprised with this, they have the numbers in terms of population and chinese government supports.  Cool

Would be great to see statisctics of bitcoin users all over the world, but i think that in Russia where bitcoin is illegal percentage of users will not be so major.

Its very big and risky assumptions. First of all, russians are poor in general. That is causing the need for easy money and there is only couple steps from here to scam.
On the other hand, BTC-E, russian exchange, shady and stuff, doing really good in recent years. You never know with russians, they are special Smiley

because most of russian are anomalous started  from poorest man in russian to there president. there main thought is to hurt someone and make bad things, not only here, in every business, in every jobs they are making, they only thinking only in one thing, to hurt someone.

I know I'm replying to an old reply to an old post but you must either be trolling or extremely racist (stereotyping, ignorant what have you..) to even say that.

Anyways back on topic in reply to the OP, I don't at all think that most of the BTC scammers out there are Russian or a single national identity for that matter. Remember that Bitcoin was made with anonymity in mind and for me I think that it would be hard to pinpoint the identities of anonymous scammers.

I think it's to be agreed upon that there are lots of Russian HYIPs out there but what do we call the HYIPs which are "non-russian", not so easy to classify right without giving bias? Russia has a very distinct knowledge that makes it stand apart from all the "English" HYIPs, this might very well be the reason why they stick out more.

Can you provide authentic evidence of the above statement? Because I think bitcoin users evenly in various countries. Maybe you enter bitcoin forum that penetrated into bitcoin users in Russia or you are from Russia? thank you.
