You can compare it to dealing with cash, which everyone does.
I guess it depends on what kind of transactions you do and with who.

That's definitely true. PayPal just reversed one of the payments made to me for bitcoin--and it wasn't a chargeback, it was PayPal's suspicion. Not sure what the issue was, but I don't want my PP account nuked.

I heard many of my friends say, investing in Bitcoin or cryptocurrency is like a gamble. If we are lucky, then surely we will get a lot of money from investing in them. Otherwise, we would seem to lose everything.

Yeah, yeah, it's a gamble. So is buying stocks or artwork.

I know this thread was started by someone who needed to start a new thread for whatever reason, and I'm not sure why he's asking what he's asking--but I would say that since BTC is still associated with dark market transaction and scams, people are going to look at BTC transactions and the people who own BTC with suspicion. Why do you think Coinbase cancels accounts associated with gambling? Why do you think banks haven't gotten involved with bitcoin? Why don't payment processors allow businesses to accept payment for things like kratom? They don't want to be associated with vices, that's why. And bitcoin is inextricably linked to them.

There's a reputational risk at best, but I don't care. The banks and everyone else will come around eventually.
