What would you do when you're talking to someone but then he suddenly talks about his hatred on Bitcoin, what would you react to it?
I've never actually experienced anything like this before, I just want to be prepared when it happened to me.
That's why institutions need to have cryptocurrency and blockchain awareness programs. Certain people associate bitcoin only with illegal trade, thanks to the Silk Road scandal. They could use some knowledge on what bitcoin really is.
True that. Bitcoin became notorious when it came to being linked with Silk Road drugs trade. But the underlying technology behind bitcoin, that is blockchain, is a disruptive technology. It has many more applications than just exchange of cryptocurrencies and companies are testing this tech for implementing it in their infrastructure. People really need to be made aware about this aspect of bitcoin. Blockchain might impact their lives in major ways in the future.
