Regardless, the point is probably that the level of Bitcoin adoption remains low. The potential for growth is massive.
To be fair there are two possible scenarios. Scenario 1, bitcoin adoption is still quite low and that shows its potential is still huge because as adoption increases, demand increases, the price can reach levels beyond our imagination. Scenario 2, although BTC is still being adopted strongly, there are still not many people investing in it, which means the world may not be as enthusiastic about bitcoin as we think.
Like in the area where I live, almost everyone has heard and knows about bitcoin but the percentage of people interested and wanting to invest in it is still very limited. They still prefer gold, stocks or real estate. This leaves me with two thoughts: are they really still waiting for things to become clearer or are they really not interested in bitcoin?
The reality is probably more of scenario 1 than 2. As far as my observation is concerned, the level of Bitcoin awareness is still very low. Yeah, there are people who have heard of Bitcoin many times. I personally know some. Even my country's former central bank governor has heard of it. They don't like Bitcoin.
But judging from their explanation for disliking Bitcoin, we can tell they don't understand Bitcoin after all. If you think Bitcoin is just one pointless invention which happened to be assigned with a value by geeks, criminals, and ignorant individuals, you don't know Bitcoin at all. If you think Bitcoin is merely a get-rich-quick scheme, you don't know it.
So, the preference of not investing in Bitcoin among those who have heard of Bitcoin is largely based upon false impression. There is, therefore, a big possibility that once they truly get to know Bitcoin they will also be as enthusiastic as us.
