Lack of knowledge about bitcoin that prevents people from buying bitcoin. Lack of knowledge will make people doubt and also fear because of negative news about bitcoin.

The adoption of major companies and merchants is one of the factors that can make more people be interested in using crypto. Promotion of a certain celebrity that has a very good reputation to the public will also help in making other people invest in crypto. It really doesn't matter if the values of crypto is very volatile as long as there's someone popular or charismatic that can influence new investors to come into crypto space.

Bitcoin and cryptocurrency is fast becoming known globally.. The major reason that might affect people from getting into it might be due to lack of substantial knowledge on them.. If awareness is created with the potential benefits you stand to get is passed across, then people will definitely get into it

Huge downfall definitely scared people away, but once we turn to a huge bull run again everybody will jump back in. Current state with high volatility is great for everyone who likes to trade.

Among the main reasons named in this thread by others are price unpredictability, high volatility, fear of scam, bearish market and decentralization. I would like to mention another thing which is not a feature of bitcoin, but rather a trait that is very common for humans. I am talking about being conservative. People don't want to deal with cryptos simply because they somehow managed without them thus far and accepting new important things into their life seems not to be worth the risks. Old people are especially good at applealing to history of human practices and of their own life, which brought them this far and is thus proven to be safe. Who knows what these lines of letters and numbers not even written on paper actually mean and whether it is all safe, right? I'd say wrong, but watching the famous interview with SEC chairman I can see the same thing. It is obvious he doesn't bother to get to know cryptos or differences between them. He keeps repeating that this company has been managing securities for a long time, knows how to do that well and is not going to adjust to new things coming about.

to make someone stay motivated and motivated by crypto I think it's gone, the problem is that most people always see in a short sight or short range and ignore in the long run so it will be difficult to persuade them

reasons I often find and make other people reluctant to use cryptocurrency, because they think crypto is a field that is easily passed by many bad people.

There are a lot of reasons behind this and some of them are the curiosity , the greed to better profit and also the dream to become rich within a short time.

In my opinion cryptocurrency is popular now that's why many people are interested and using it, Cryptocurrency is being built for the digital era especially for transaction purposes but because of bitcoin many people are become rich and change their life.
