I do speak about bitcoins in public with my friends, But the reaction i get is usually, why are you doing illegal business? you may end up in jail.

Their biggest question and am not able to convince them just by talking is, How can a currency exist without any company, group or board controlling it?. Mostly i will not try to explain them more, I'll just direct them to bitcoin.org or some exchange and sometimes to a page about mining.

Nowadays i just don't care what they think and doesn't bother to explain to them.

That was the problem there they are not openminded they not even interested on your earnings i think thats the reason but sooner they will ask you again when bitcoins are popularly known and they realize that they will listen to you.
As of now the only way to do is ignore whatever they said. They will only ask and ask you but lastly they don't even care even you already answered their questions.

I think it's normal to pay bitcoints wherever possible. I do not hide it. Soon they will enjoy many

Sincerely, as much as possible that I want to tell people about my exposure to bitcoin even though little as it may I find it difficult because of the environment here as the acceptance is not really deep and the perception of people about anything that is not FIAT is assume to be illegal or belongs to the underworld so, I am in a fix so what I do is to wait for someone to be curious and then use the avenue to give proper orientation and exposure as necessary.

yeah that's what we bitcoin users are doing here as well. we show people what we're doing and then we let them be the one to ask. then that's when we try to inform them about bitcoin. most people that i know here are not aware of bitcoin yet so i try to explain everything to them. it would be beneficial for us anyway once more and more people are using bitcoin

Yeah for sure, but not many people know about it. There are many who are interested to learn more about it. And they tell me that it is strange that did not know earlier. Undecided

The right information will make more and more people to be interested about btc.

It seems that you are good with explaining how do this digital currency work especially the bitcoin. I tried it once to tell it to my family and they were happy at first. And then they were puzzled on how it works since there is no physical money involved.

Yes, it is just a matter of convincing and good explanation. It is good that you became part of the reason why bitcoin was become more and more popular.

i dont think its wise to tell in the public that you use bitcoins because people usually thinks you are on illegal activities thats why you are using bitcoins so me personally avoid these kinds of talks because it gives wornd image of the person

And I do not care what people think. If someone asks, I answer honestly. I do not hide it

It is a hard thing to explain to the normal person. It also is not something in my life that come up at all beside to the few people that come over and see a wallet or an exchange or something on my browser's.
Bitcoin /blockchain/cryptocoins are a very hard thing to explain to most people

It's really hard to explain when you share it to public and to your family and friends. But when they found out how awesome and convenient bitcoins are, surely they won't hesitate to know more about this. Yes it does really takes time for a person to understand bitcoin system but eventually they will. There just like us dying of curiosity and now playing our part in the world of bitcoin.

yeah curiosity plays a big part in this. I try to show my friends the things that I gain from bitcoin, like how I earn from signature campaigns and they instantly get interested. I think we'd all benefit anyways if bitcoin is more widely used in the future

Ive noticed that the fact of earning btc here through posting interests a lot of people I've been speaking to but then they create an account and when they hear that they need to rank up over a few months, they instantly get discouraged, leave it and forget about it.

Hahaha. I experience this matter when i tell it to my 4 friends i use my proofs on eaening btc and told them that signature campaign is the least risk instead of unvesting or buying bitcoins. Then same way after they register at first asking about 360 seconds before replying and when they ask can i join sign campaign now ? After the day i said you need to rank up about 2-4 months first and need to know more about forum not just posting they backout .

I think they dont wanna wait time they want instant money instant earning even i am a hrad time earner about 4 months above ..well we cannot blame them about that.

I am not ashamed or scared to say I use bitcoin. I also like paper money. Both can be abused but both have far more positive uses.

Doesn't have to be, but when I try expolaining btc to someone who did never hear of it, I never explain blockchain or the technology behind it, in a very small details, I try to keep it wide for the first time.
