How do people see Blockchain technology in my country
When i was in University pursuing my engineering in computer science i met many students with different interest and knowledge. I was quite confused in my initial days about what i really like and what i must do in my life.
Some were talking about artificial intelligence , some were talking about machine learning , some about data science and some about pursuing even higher education in their life.
Blockchain was not an option for anyone , it wasn't an option for me as well. I started learning html , css , javascript , and different libraries of javascript. I started my journey and wanted to be a web developer and that web development stuff brought me closer to blockchain.
I remember that i was the only one who opted blockchain as his major project topic. I did alot of research at that time and got to know alot about cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

Blockchain is still quite a complex concept difficult to grasp for the typical regular citizen of any country.
The fact that you store your money in a public key which is a garble of characters and numbers and that you can only retrieve it with a similar private key is a concept that is hard to comprehend and trust for anyone who considers its money as something valuable.
This is the reason I chose Hive as my starting/intro crypto coin. Because in Hive your public key is your username....this makes it way easier for regular mortals to understand it. Also, as I understand, transferring Hive tokens from one Hive wallet to another Hive wallet doesn't charge you any gas fees, I can practice with my friend and family how to deal with wallet plugins and different addresses ( am I right on this one ?)
I think that until developers and blockchain evangelists can find a way to get rid of the complex public keys and risks associated with crypto exchanges or wallets being hacked, the full adoption of crypto is not going to happen any time soon. There must be a major breakthrough, a breakthrough similar to the tactile phone screen when Apple introduced it in the first iPhone.
