The image of bitcoin held by some media and government as a tool to fund terrorism and boost money laundering is not a valid reasoning. Bitcoin is a tool and if it were not bitcoin, it would have been something else. And about it's other image as a sure shot way to profit, I personally believe bitcoin is inflated much more than it's price and is still a large bubble. Though that hasn't stopped me from buying more cause I know the profit are more lucrative in comparison to the risk involved.
Well in the view of bitcoin users like us, we can say that bitcoin was really good and helpful since we already experienced it to get huge profit but for the eyes of the non believer of crypto the image of bitcoin wasnt good. In fact they always think that it was scam and thats the reason why they dont want to try it.
