It's been 11 years since Bitcoin's inception, where it has become an extremely popular cryptocurrency used by people worldwide. Many governments, central banks, and even mainstream businesses and companies have become interested in grasping the benefits provided by Bitcoin's Blockchain technology. As a result, we've seen many positive comments from popular figures like John McAfee, Elon Musk, and even Jack Dorsey talking about Bitcoin. However, only a few seem to use it in their daily lives.

Imagine someone famous within the mainstream world showing him/herself using Bitcoin in a Hollywood movie or even in public. We may be still far from seeing this become a reality as Bitcoin is still not scalable for the world yet (the Lightning Network is under active development). Maybe after micropayments become viral on the LN, we'll be able to see more celebrities using Bitcoin in public? Average people in the mainstream world would surely use Bitcoin for their daily lives if they see someone famous patronizing the cryptocurrency.

Do you think celebrities in the mainstream world are still using Bitcoin for their own benefit? If so, which famous people are deeply into Bitcoin right now? I'd love to see someone like Keanu Reeves, Microsoft's Satya Nadella, or even Apple's Tim Cook using (and patronizing) Bitcoin someday. At such degree, I think Bitcoin would've reached massive adoption within the mainstream world. Thoughts? Huh


Why are people so concern about celebrities using bitcoin?  A lot of these people do not understand what bitcoin is and it's purpose in the financial ecosystem. All they see is an asset that will make them huge profit. These people will not add any significant improvement into the bitcoin market and ecosystem.
I think the reason why people are concerned about celebrities who uses bitcoin because they are happy that more people are started to know about cryptocurrency like bitcoin. I think you are wrong these people will really add a great improvement to bitcoin's price when they started to buy a huge amount of bitcoin.
Celebrities are often taken as role model by the people. People take inspirations from them and happily follow the activities and works they do. Knowing that your favorite celebrity is also investing in crypto market will attract you toward this market also. I think this will benefit the whole crypto market in two ways, firstly more and more people will come forward to invest in this market by following their favorite person’s footsteps. Secondly, the huge amount of investments made by the celebrities in this market will bring good results.
Indeed, they are entering on this kind of investment since they have money to invest in, maybe they have some good marketers or they know one or many people who share the goodness of cryptocurrency that is why they encouraged celebrities. There are actually lot of celebrities who are using cryptocurrencies,  like famous football player Lionel Messi and a famous rapper Snoop Dogg and also a CEO of one company named Bill Gates and also a famous boxer and a legend Manny Pacquiao. I can say that they have buy or invested such a good amount of money trusting cryptocurrency with all of their heart.
