I've also seen people online complaining that bitcoin is too hard to use and that it's too confusing. Is this another reason why people compare bitcoin today to the Internet in 1994? I'm a software developer so I might be a little biased, but I don't think it takes a genius to use the blockchain wallet app I have on my phone. What needs to be done to make it more accessible? The only difficult thing I can think of is exchanging fiat for bitcoin.
blockchain wallet app is not true bitcoin. its a service that uses bitcoins network
EG looking at a webpage is not the true internet. its just a page that uses the internet
saying using blockchains wallet app is easy.
is like saying looking at a webpage in1994 is easy.
but understanding the intricate details of how the internet actually works (DNS, ISP, IP, HTTP, FTP, SMTP) is the difference
people dont just want a flashy webpage that asks for credit cards. they actually want to know that its safe to shop online in the 1990's. they are worried about putting their funds/personal information out there onto the internet so they want to know about what http is as oppose to https and what makes https so much better.
same with bitcoin using a service is easy, but knowing if its secure.. they will want to know a little more then just the basics
