Not only in the Philippines, but in all the world Bitcoin is unknown, because it is an intangible currency first and unrecognized, and because trading is a dangerous process for the majority.

I think Crypto is not famous on philippines because its they are not well educated about it and they are more focus on earning actually money than virtual plus not all filipino have access on the Interenet.

Many people are skeptical about crypto currencies because they do not understand how it works. They even believe it's scam. This is the reason it remains unpopular in countries like Philippines and other countries in the world. Also, in some countries, the government do not allow the operation of crypto currency.

As my opinion, I think that the laws of using bitcoin in the Philippines might be strict that why it happens and it's not only for the Philippines but also for a lot of counties happening same things.

It might be the virtual money is less evident for them and real earning with real job and real money is their priority. But on the other hand, I also heard that more people in the Philippines were using cryptos in earning.

On the contrary, the Philippines is one of the most liberal countries when it comes to cryptocurrencies.

 

Don't believe me? There are plenty of articles you can find about it. Here's one of them:

As for why cryptocurrencies are not popular there, I believe this post's answer should suffice:

I think they are afraid because Crypto is not regulated by anyone. They think that Digital Currency can be misused in terrorist acts or money laundering. For this reason many are afraid of Crypto.

Its not popular because majority of the filipino people live below the poverty line so its really a struggle for filipinos to think about bitcoins when their main focus is chatting, I mean putting foid on the table. They dont have the luxury of spending time online to research about bitcoins considering the internet speed in the philippines is 100 kbps thanks to 2 major internet providers who do not know the meaning of the word "upgrade".

Well I'm glad that someone asks this question. Maybe you are also a pinoy, right? Kamusta kababayan, anyway yes in Philippines using of cryptocurrency is not that famous, and a few only know what cryptocurrency is but I notice that only young age know what it is and using it and sadly even they know it they don't have the intention on sharing it to get rid of competitors especially in how to work here and in bitcointalk, many user just want an underslings, or they want to become boss and have people to pilot their accounts which are not fair, so I'm doing my best to spread about crypto and how to earn.

Where did you get your information? Cryptocurrency are widely use in the Philippines. From Prepaid mobile load, Steam games, Bills payments and Money transfer. Almost all my neighbors, friends and relatives own a fraction of Bitcoin and Ethereum. Care to share where did you get your information?

People will never touch something they don't understand and no protection. I think most Philippines citizen already know crypto but in general understanding not the specific. Second reason is regulation and they can't afford risk. Need education and adaptation to use crypto but I'm sure soon they will take crypto just like us.

I don't know much about it because i don't have any friends connected from Philippines but there may a reason that they are not identified through bitcoin they don't have the knowledge of it or they would have faced any fraud activities through it.

That is one of the sources of problems for the Philippines who do not know about crypto, even though the crypto world is very good and profitable if they find out, I am sure it will always be used as a transaction tool.

Many people in the Philippines that doesn't know about crypto currency, if someone try to introduce to them the crypto currency they always think that is a scam because there are many scammers in the Philippines so they don't want to risk their money for investment even if they said that they don't need to invest, the peoples in Philippines think that was a scam also because you don't have any investment. In other words, they don't like risk their time and money that's why too many people scared to learn crypto currency.

Crypto currency have a reputation for being used by illegal entities. Even the laws and regulations are afraid to implement it so a wrong image of crypto currency in the mind of people is the reason people are afraid of it.

I believe this is one of the main reasons. If only the government will change their views regarding bitcoin and crypto, using it might be a normal thing in the Philippines. Implementing a law regarding usage of btc will also help and will make it known to the citizens. This also applies for other foreign governments who don't fully support usage of crypto in their countries yet.

Actually the rising position of crypto currencies especially bitcoin make the countries worries regarding their hard currency because it will become devalue and crypto will take its place and that government will not have control on it. And people are actually not interacted with crypto world so they think it as insecure because of no control on it by any specific group of people.

    • Создатель токена DARE поджёг себя для увелечения цены и попал в больницу    Lonemikol запустил свой токен на Pump.fun и решил привлечь внимание, устроив шоу с фейерверком. Он попросил, чтобы его облили горючей жидкостью, и пробежал через группу людей, которые стреляли в него римскими свечами.    Одежда создателя токена загорелась, и он получил ожоги 35% тела, после чего был доставлен в больницу в Майами. После инцидента курс DARE подскочил с $0,000056 до $0,002, хотя затем немного откатился, оставаясь выше начального уровня.   
    • Биткоин Падает ниже 68 000 Долларов, так как Эфириум резко падает на Фоне Внезапной Распродажи Криптовалют Биткойн (BTC) упал ниже 68 000 долларов в начале торговой сессии в США по сравнению с примерно 70 000 долларов ранее в тот же день, что означает падение почти на 3% за последние 24 часа. Ethereum (ETH), цена на который выросла до самого высокого уровня с середины марта, превысив 3900 долларов в начале четверга, упал почти до 3700 долларов, но оставался на подъеме в течение последних 24 часов.На более широком рынке цифровых активов также наблюдалась распродажа: индекс CoinDesk 20 (CD20) упал более чем на 2%. Основные альткоины, такие как Dogecoin (DOGE), собственный токен Avalanche (AVAX), Shiba Inu (SHIB) и Chainlink (LINK), упали более чем на 4% в течение часа.Свежий отчет S&P по индексу менеджеров по закупкам показал, что экономика США набирает обороты, а производство растет самыми быстрыми темпами за последние два года. Это привело к росту курса доллара, поскольку трейдеры скорректировали свои ожидания в отношении снижения процентных ставок, что потенциально усугубило падение рисковых активов. Индекс широкого рынка S&P 500 упал на 0,6% по сравнению с ценой открытия.Один из наблюдателей отметил, что падение криптовалюты могло быть вызвано крупным заказом на продажу ETH от торговой компании Symbolic Capital Partner. Данные блокчейна показали, что в течение минуты компания продала 6 968 ETH на сумму 27,4 миллиона долларов.

    • ⚡️Новые перспективы эфира⚡️ Аналитики Bernstein прогнозируют, что цена Ethereum может достичь $6600, если ETF будет одобрен. Увеличение стоимости на монструозные 75% от текущей цены может открыть новые возможности для инвесторов и серьезно укрепить позиции криптовалюты на рынке. По мнению специалистов, такой резкое увеличение цены виртуальных денег на 75% вызвало подтверждение спотовых биткоин-ETF в январе. Специалисты прогнозируют похожее влияние на стоимость криптовалюты, если одобрят её ETF. Самое время инвестировать, что можно выгодно сделать на yodaobmen.com
