Some people fear what they don't understand. And more often than not, no amount of explanation is ever enough for people like that. There's also the possibility of vested interests at play. I'm fairly sure it's not possible to introduce something like this without pissing someone off.
Also, there are still plenty of idiots out there protesting against Covid vaccines. I suppose you think no governments should be offering those either?
Almost all new things decided by the government will invite public attention to support or reject, including the legality of bitcoin. So this may be the case of mass vaccination in all countries where resistance and protests are carried out due to lack of knowledge of what the government wants. But over time, it will gain a lot of support.
the point is global recognition and a good approach to be able to introduce in this case is bitcoin is quite the right thing to do.
after that happens let people judge and find out more, regardless of whether they want to or not, reject or accept it back to each other.
but one thing is for sure when they have been introduced and still refuse. this is a big loss for him. because the adoption of btcoin is getting more and more and it's just a matter of time to get bitcoin clearly recognized.
