Bitcoin or Real Money
Recently, a survey was conducted among ordinary US citizens. It turned out that according to the degree of preference, banknotes lose to debit cards by only 6 percent.In the polls that took place in May and June, 1 thousand Americans participated. Of these, 27 percent preferred cash. The most popular debit cards - 33%. The situation with virtual currencies is quite good. They satisfy 15 percent of respondents.
For the time being, there are means of payment in circulation that are irretrievably obsolete. They are to taste only 3 percent of respondents. These include checks.Similar studies have been conducted in Asian countries. And here it was confirmed that paper money is still the leading way of making settlements.
When bitcoin will be accepted for payment in various stores, the situation will change dramatically. Cash can lose its popularity.
It still depends on the performance of bitcoin if the people will use it more often than cash because even there will be a lot of stores that gonna accept bitcoin as a mode of payment then there will still be people that will use cash compare to bitcoin because they might have some issues with bitcoin like the fees and the time that they need to wait for the confirmation of their transaction which is not existing in cash, so i think at the end, cash will still own the majority of the popularity.
