maybe, but people on the internet saying something a lot doesn't represent what "most people" think. there is a lot of FUD campaigns against bitcoin so obviously we will see a lot of cases that are calling bitcoin this and that but it doesn't represent the majority. for example a lot of people were saying bitcoin will fall to $1000 not so long ago, that didn't mean "most people" or even those who were saying it believed it. it was just FUD.
Ehh, probably true. But the sentiment towards bitcoin that we see on social media is a good indicator on how people look at it today. And while I probably won't say "most" people think bitcoin is a scam(because I really don't have data to back this up), but it's a safe assumption(imo) that A LOT of people still thinks it's a scam, even if deep inside they may not think it is, it's just that a lot of them are jealous.
