It's nearly the same for most countries, bitcoin is perceived to be a scam.

Mainly because the only newsfeed the general masses usually receives from the tube revolves around the same aspect. And if by chance they do try to explain what bitcoin is, people are left with mouths gape open wondering what they just heard.

It's really exhausting trying to make people understand what bitcoin is and more so to convince them that it is not a scam. Sadly, a lot of people are still taking advantage of the hype that bitcoin produced deterring the image of cryptocurrencies more and more.
