Until now i never told my father about bitcoin because he is thinking that that bitcoin is scam.. its been a year but i am still not telling him about bitcoin but i mention it before..
Maybe he can discover the benefits of bitcoin because we are growing and i think he will regret in the future. if he is late of knowing about bitcoin..
If i can say already that bitcoin is trusted well he should research since he has knowledge to run many computers as admin in her office so it will be interested if many people here in country are using it..

The day that you figure out how to answer that question and be able to scale it to the masses is the day you change the world. Communicating bitcoin to people is one of the most important issues - I think at least - that we must address and work on improving.
If the following list was followed then your good.
-bitcoin you store is your earnings and not his
-let him see where you do you used some of your stored btc
-As long has he sees that your doing good of handling your own income and he sees what are the benefits you got from it then your good
That's the right strategy. Maybe I would add to that list to give to dad all passwords to bitcoin wallets to he could control where you spend coins. Or maybe to cash out your coins on his card. -bitcoin you store is your earnings and not his
-let him see where you do you used some of your stored btc

Here is the story: My dad just found out that I am storing bitcoin and he try to prevent me from using this crypto. This is absolutely the worst situation I have ever had since I started used Bitcoin. I am living in the country which bad guys abuse Bitcoin for illegal activities. Therefore, most of the people here who do not have a proper knowledge about bitcoin believe bitcoin as a stupid, dummy coin or even MLM. My dad is one of them. Any solution to solve this problem ? It is quite hard though because I am still a teenager so it is extremely difficult to persuade him
Thanks in advance

First of all you have to teach your father that what is Bitcoin and how it is regulated in market and how Bitcoins are generated. Untill you tell your father about Bitcoin basics than how will they understand your point? Than tell them that Bitcoin is not centralized and not regulated by any central authority or any Government institution and also tell them that Bicoin can not be hacked so it is secure to hold. You can convince them saying that it can make him reach if you invest some money and hold it for long time.
Though your father maybe also correct because converting all your money into Bitcoin is also not a wise decision so you should also try to understand him.
Why do you need to convince your dad about bitcoin? and who said, that bitcoin is a trustful coin?? WHose trust you are bestowing upon bitcoin. Bitcoin is a decentralized currency and no one actually controls them. Bitcoin is not backed by any asset.
However, bitcoin is backed up by people's trust and that is the only factor about bitcoin. Don't convince your dad to invest in bitcoin. Try with your own money. So that you won't have to worry about food even if you loose all your savings in to bitcoin.

Give him some bitcoins and direct him to casino to enjoy and he will surely comeback for more and once he sees his winnings and convert it to fiat he will see the value of BTC
Or probably getting pissed off and kick OP's ass immediately after directing him to play in the casino with bitcoin. Not all parents love to see their kid playing gambling but the majority of them will forbid their kids to play gambling. So your advice is kind of very risky unless his dad is really into gambling and even let their kids play it Here is the story: My dad just found out that I am storing bitcoin and he try to prevent me from using this crypto.

Show him all the article of coindesk, cointelegraph etc. Show him that bitcoin is legalized in big countries like USA and Russia. Show him even that Russia initially banned him but 2 years after change mind and has clasified it as a foreign currency (legalising it). Ask him to convince you why bitcoin is a bad thing and discuss with him about this continually. Show him the value of bitcoin in time and explain him that cannot be possible to be such increase of price for something that has not value or is dirty.

I think that now you are in Hero Member Rank, and you are in Bitcoin world for more then 6 months , so you should be knowing full benefits of Bitcoin then it should not be problem for you to defend you position against your father. You can tell him the good features of Bitcoin and its uses and show them how many country have started to accept bitcoin and its uses.

it is a simple matter. give your father a bitcoin wallet address. after that fill some of the bitcoin. then tell your father to buy some goods with bitcoin. it is very easy course. to do and practice directly to make things easier.
but to me i think it depend on your father's age, education. nature and interest, if he is education and having good knowledge about internet and computer then he will understand you very soon and will convinced. but if he has no computer and internet knowledge then it is difficult to convince him about to use bitcoin instead of fiat. Not really, ask him should he invest in something that rises from 0.1$ to 1000$ and he would give you a big yes at least my family encourages me rather than pulling me back.
its good suggestion but as your dads is not yet believe in bitcoin that can be another investment, i think you don't have to push him to buy bitcoin but i think you can give the proof about what you are done with bitcoin and you can give your dads that you are really make money with bitcoin so i am sure that your dads will be believe and want to start to use bitcoin.

You should tell to your dad, the good benefits of bitcoin to you, and tell to him that your not doing any illegal, or show to him how it works so that he will understand that you are not doing any illegal things. Is there any exchanger of bitcoin from your country? Show him that this bitcoin can convert in real money, and show what are you doing to earn bitcoin. My parents too think this bitcoin as a scam, MLM. But they see I can earn here and they know im not doing any illegal things. So my parents let me earn this coin.

He don't need to understand bitcoin. Blockchain technology, crypto currency, especially bitcoin is made for millennials generation who is active every day with the internet.
One you can say to your father is, you can tell him bitcoin is a new commodity to trade or to save to earn more money. It's a new kind of investment.

Yes using technical terms usually scares the person and there is a possibility that the concerned person might stay away from the thing we want him to know.
So, It would be great to use very familiar language and explain bitcoin technology with some familiar terms like email, sms, etc. As per my experience, demonstration works smoothly while explaining bitcoin to a new person and giving him some satoshis in his fresh wallet is like turning a key for starting his car.
Lol there's saying it in plain English then there's dumbing it down to the point you give incorrect information and people think it's basically magic internet money that some people find with their special computers.

Some parents like to support some initiative they might be admiring. Like bitcoin used to make a savings. Say to him that having bitcoins makes you save to the future and that can allow you to be sufficient without parents.

People would just back-off if they found words in your article that they do not understand. Keep in mind that there's a lot of articles written on the internet, you don't have to force yourself to read something that have technical words. Nonetheless, watching youtube videos would give you similar results as reading this type of article because the video maker is literally talking to you.

That you have to to do is convince your father to believe if you do not abuse the bitcoin for illegal activities. Maybe you engage your dad how you manage bitcoin correctly, I'm sure if he knew directly would definitely believe you and his mind can open. Indeed, for those who do not know bitcoin would think like that, but if given the understanding he'll have a new mind and trust with bitcoin.
