What's preventing Bitcoins from being accepted as mainstream payment forms? I'm working on a new blockchain and would like to learn what drawbacks of Bitcoin urgently need to be improved Wink

Some real and/or imagined roadblocks to adoption:

bitcoin (and the notion of crypto currencies in general) is unfamiliar to many (see Technology Adoption Life Cycle)
the bitcoin price is volatile
government requirements are not clear
user is responsible for knowing how to secure their wallet
reports of scams
commercial services and products using bitcoin are still in early stages
