The reason most people are reluctant to invest in cryptocurrencies is the lack of legal recourse in case something goes wrong, or someone tries to swindle you. Bitcoin is hyped as being decentralised and regulated. But that makes people with pensions, dependents, or a mortgage very reluctant. They want the bank or the government to be able to step in and fix things.
