I don't understand why most of the newbies and those who are not into bitcoin think bitcoin is some kind of a hoax or a hack to get "real money" fast?

For one thing, to a lot of people, that's what it looks like. A repeated pump and dump. I'm not saying that's what bitcoin is, but we are talking about perceptions. It looks like a thinly traded penny stock that got hyped and sort of forgotten about.

It takes time to shake out people like that.

Part of it is press a lot of time if bitcoin is in news it's not good sadly. There are more and more sites taking bitcoin. If some big countries noticed it as currency we would get a bump. Or huge payment services such as paypal again bump.

IF you know the truth about bitcoin and you are more experienced then just don't pay attention to some newbies who does know nothing and only wants to get free btc or something.
