My mother, hell my whole family sees bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a gambling operation. They see it as no better than throwing craps on a table in vegas. I think for the most part it's not the instability of bitcoin prices that scare people from using it, but that it's the fear that investing your real money can be sucked away by schemes so quick you don't know what hit you.
Bitcoin and crypto currency are not bad themselves. The can be used for gambling, but same is true for all currencies.
You can do gambling with any currency. So the Bitcoin is not bad in itself. Its the usage that make it good or bad.
