As is usually the case, the topic of bitcoin remains highly controversial.
The Non-believers Will Flock to Bitcoin Eventually
To most non-believers, it has no value or a pyramid scheme.
Another common argument is how it is not regulated, which is far from the truth, depending on one’s region.
The fact that it is not backed by anything is often highlighted as a flaw.
In reality, it is the core strength of any cryptocurrency on the market today.
Unfortunately, those who are stuck in this mindset will not be persuaded of the opposite.

There is also a lot of work to be done to make bitcoin more convenient, as it severely lacks in this department.
