Yes that's true, not even 5 years ago, around 3 years ago when bitcoin is really hype or starting to become well known in the society, many people are skeptical already with bitcoin. Most people are really uneducated with it, but it's not surprising because the concept of bitcoin is still new and not many people familiar with it. Even for my lectures, with their master degree said that bitcoin is a scam, we shouldn't get involved in bitcoin and such. Not to mention that i took major in finance field, so they should be aware of bitcoin, or at least try to do some research with it since it's related to their study field first before saying shit about bitcoin. I don't say all finance people are like that, but if some of them are like that, we can't blame ordinary people to be so uneducated with bitcoin. Moreover, bitcoin had quite a bad name already before, which is only a false perception of people, so it'll be even harder to educate and change their perception regarding bitcoin.

Seriously, think about all the people who have trouble to put a desktop computer together or use outlook properly. There are still a lot of those people, most of them being maybe 40 years and older or perhaps around 50 and older. If you confront them with Bitcoin and Sha256 and private and public key, they are just lost and even afraid to get into it. That's just how it goes and maybe one day we are in a position where we can't understand the newest big thing that is happening around us while we are still stuck in the Bitcoin stone age! Tongue
