I have come to realize that mostly on daily basis, petty traders; hawker stall, street vendors, street hawkers, market men and women, kiosks do transactions often and frequently and they are not amongst the top class citizens in the society. Some are uneducated and are not anywhere near technology to get acquainted with blockchain and Bitcoin. I believe if they are informed and have knowledge about Bitcoin properly they will want to key into it so as to save themselves of unnecessary stress and expenses from banks and other groups.
What's your opinion in educating these petty traders and letting them know more about Bitcoin because I believe this is amongst the grassroot adoption which starts from the base as they do transact more often than some of the big companies we hear of. Although the petty traders do little amount but it is most often on daily basis.
What steps would you take in drawing the attention of the traders to Bitcoin?
People like them will never leave their businesses easily as they are making a daily income from it for survival. And it would be hard to convince them to enter into crypto and invest knowing it also needs capital which i don't think they can easily provide for it. And the fact that crypto investments never guarantee profits at all times, i guess that will be a red flag for them and would not even care to take the risks. Better leave them in things they are comfortable to do with.
