This is what often happens among the public, lack of information about Bitcoin and continuing to have opinions about Bitcoin, so that sometimes and even makes Bitcoin look scary with the risk of losing it,
Bitcoin is something of an enigma to the common people and those who have no exposure to it. But we as a community can help people understand and demystify this enigma to a simpler form without going too much into technical details. That can increase the acceptance and use of crypto but a big impact would be the government's stance on crypto because people fear legal troubles when investing their hard earned money.
There are people who are staying away from crypto but the reason for same needs to be clarified first and then we can tackle those points better.
