One of the popular thoughts and beliefs on crypto especially Bitcoin. The belief is that Bitcoin should be the main money system in the world for getting goods and services vs just being a store of value. All of these ideas are written in the Bitcoin white paper.

Bitcoin is decentralized in a way that we can even disagree with Satoshi himself. The point of bitcoin is that you should use it for whatever reason you may see fit — may it be for a currency, as a SoV, or whatever. The whitepaper is just the initial draft.

One of those limitations is that there is nearly not enough effort on creating and spreading positive awareness on it as some government and individuals alike is hell bent on spreading negativity around and poisoning the minds of prospective users. People need to be aware and understand what bitcoin is really about and be awake to its uses.

There is a lot of effort. It's just that Bitcoin is just a very obscure thing that it will take time for people to realize it's importance. We're literally pitching an alternative financial system, not just some online web service.

You could get lots of information about anything on the internet including bitcoin. But the internet can be misleading to newbies cause you could get right and wrong and also misleading information on the internet. It puzzles me that people with an in depth knowledge of bitcoin would purposefully hoard and keep information to themselves. You may think people don't hoard information but in reality, people do. It irksome just thinking about it. If people could share information, newbies won't readily fall prey to scammers.
Many people believe everything they hear and see on social media and accept that as the main truth to anything without having the proper references to the actual facts.

Surprise..? This applies to literally any other topic, not specific to Bitcoin.

After all a huge deal of money is stolen from credit and debit cards all over the world, and those people depend on the banks to save them and recover their money, but this is not possible with bitcoin, so since people do not know how to take care of their coins I think that we are bound to see a massive amount of money being stolen if Bitcoin was adopted massively, and then once they lose their money this way those people will criticize Bitcoin for its inability to reverse transactions, even if that is a feature and not a bug.

This has been happening for a while now. It's unfortunate, but people learn by reading, or learn the hard way. Human nature in it's finest.

In general I think it will take sometime for more adoption of Bitcoin to happen, if any at all.

You, and literally anyone with a functioning brain thinks this.

What do you think is needed to not scare people away from crypto. Also what can be done to encourage people to at least take a moment to learn a bit more on the money system and understand how the inflation is happening. This of course will only need to change some people’s mindset on matters.

Time. People are stupid. They'll only realize the importance of something only when they really need it.
