Topic: How do you explain Bitcoin or crypto to complete newcomer - page 2. (Read 3289 times)
I'm a visual kind of person so usually when I explain about Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies, I either open up youtube or Google or even this forum to help them.understand more because it is difficult to explain a digital curremcy to someone who knows nothing about cryptocurrencies.
So I've been involved in Bitcoin and crypto for about 5 months now and just about everyone I tell about it being friends and family most have never heard of it or the few that have they have no understanding of it so I was just curious into how others explain it all to total newcomers is their a webpage or video you may show for an easy understanding to explain it all ? Whenever I give my explanation it seems to go way over their head 
Cheers
CheersI just tell to them to visit this forum or some websites like CoinDesk, CoinTelegraph etc as reference.
And some local bitcoin news portal.

To explain everything in Bitcoin first i will explaint to newcomer that theres something in this era has been made and that is Cryptocurrencies or Digital Currency and i will tell him and explain about Cryptocurrency how it has its value and what kind of cryptocurrency do we have as of this moment. Like Bitcoins of course i will explain it to him how bitcoin starts and how can he/she work for it and how can it change it his/her life if he will put a lot of more focus on this and set his heart and mind and i will tell him/her how can change his/her life because of bitcoins
People's knowledge on bitcoin/cryptocurrency will always depend on how they understand the whole concept. As for me, I tell them about how I understand it and then refer them to a link that will back-up my explanation and for them to also explore and get to know the concept easier. For Ethereum, I will always suggest for them to check the website itself which is www.propthereum.io
All answers to possible questions is there and it has a very detailed whitepaper that can explain what it is.

You can show them all the videos and wikis possible but the only way I think is to give them a small amount to play around with and that will get them hooked.
Yes, I agree with you, the best way is that give them a little money to help them trade or invest in Bitcoin or Altcoins. Profit and loss can help them understand clearly.

Many people still don't know what bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are all about. Same goes with me, I have shared something to some of my friends and family and I admot I have a hard time explaining to them. But I have this thought that if you share bitcoin with someone who is really in need of money, he/she will be willing to learn how it works. In that way you can easily teach it to him then eventually he can discover things by himself while doing something productive. Cheers
There are more and more videos and places offering training.
If the person is not prepared to take the time and watch them - dont waste your time. Let them loose out on this opportunity in my opinion.

We are in the same boat, dude. Almost everyone around me is naive to what Bitcoin or cryptocurrency is. In explaining to these people I always use the Cowries analogy or example to enlighten them that like cowries in the past as money, Bitcoin is the modern money from the Internet. That explanation sinks easily for most of them. Cheers

CheersI teach them what to do and then let them discover what really is bitcoin. There are some people whom you teach and after learning everything and earning, it seems like they dont even know you. Snobbers. That's why I suggest for you not to spoonfeed every information you know. And let them surf and research for the things they wanted to know.
The best way to explain crypto to a newcomer is by explaining the role us money first then explain how Bitcoin is a network AND a currency, and Bitcoin was just the first app on this network that allows for trustless value transfer.
There are many things to explain to a newcomer on bitcoin. He or she might ask you where you are getting the extra income and you can tell them that you are getting it via the internet and then the topic of bitcoin or cryptocurrency will be opened. Bitcoin is a type of cryptocurrency and it is one of the largest value that cryptocurrency can have. Bitcoin is also still developing so the price he or she is seeing is not final. It may rise again significantly, this is why it is good to invest in bitcoin.
I think we shouldn't explain for newcomer about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency directly cause maybe it'll make them hard to understand. For example some of my friends are exploring about Bitcoin they ask me a lot of I only gave them some topics or articles with a lot of informations about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency then if they have any problem and still missunderstood in anything I'll help them to solve it. I think it's a better way to let newcomer understand about cryptocurrency

I think the best way is to not explaining it to them directly instead, let them watch video with you at his/her side. In that way, it will be explained properly. Don't explain it if you don't have enough knowledge about bitcoin and know it if they are really interested in learning bitcoin. But if you want to explain it by yourself, I think just share what you only know and let the 2 of you learn together. Cheers
First, we have to identify who among them are intersted. It is hard to explain to someone who is not even aware about this. And if they are, explain a few introduction and tell them to read, study and do some research for their own growth.
if total new comer, we have to explain the easiest thing about bitcoin, example what is bitcoin used for? then the next level.

CheersIt is really hard to explain to people who don't have any idea what bitcoin is. My takes a lot of time to explain me from the beginning ang how it works. For me I think the best way to start is aak then if they want to have an extra income woth investing, the start to explain then how to begin and how it will work. It is better if you can explain them personally , in my experience it waa through chatting, it's hard but iam into technology so it a bit easier for me to so what my cousin ask me to do or t o follow his intructions to me. Just be patience they will learn.
