I have told almost 10 person about bitcoin and offered them help to create wallets so they could have a clear opinion about it. But so far, I have could not convince a single person to do that. Grin

Most of the time, they think bitcoin as a ponzi scheme or scam. But I understand that, because it is still young compare to other means of payment and also it is all about "The Internet". People are still suspicious about well-known banking schemes on web.

I think bitcoin will never reach the user number we all want before the major financial institutions promote it. I hope, this is a false prediction

It may seem that is easy to talk about this or any other business with friends and family but it often turn out that is the hardest.
It will work the best if you show them some practical example how they can use Bitcoins in everyday life and have some use of it. Once they try this ther will get interested.

How to talk about BTC for friend or Family ??

First you should see if they are interested in online business, technology or if they want to know what you do on your pc. If they are not interested in making money on the internet, in technology or in what you do in the times you spend in your computer? So do not tell them about bitcoin.

They will have problems if they are not interested. Think how did you know about bitcoin? Something made you learn about bitcoin. You were interested in something on the internet. If people do not show interest in knowing about bitcoin, it will be useless to explain to them.

i think they will get interest if they found it profitable, so if you teach them about the bitcoin with some live examples then then they will surely show interest in bitcoin, as it is very difficult to believe on bitcoin without any examples.

Yes I've told my friends and some of my family. I see their response is different. When I tell bitcoin told my brother he want to try but he was confused and did not understand what to do. And when I told him about bitcoin told my uncle he said that he did not understand, and he also said it was too complicated. Some of my friends also like that, but there are some who want to try and get interested in bitcoin. Against bitcoin might interest someone different, and I can not force it.

Yeah same here they can not easily understand but if you can teach them to try shoping online and gives them some bitcoin i think they can not use it easily.. just like my wife i just teach them how to send bitcoin to some gambling casino or how to withdraw bitcoin into cash.. and now she knows it.. but there is a bad result because she is addicted in gambling..

I have explained about bitcoin to different people out of my family and friends circle, of which very few accepted its existence and its advantages. Most said that these were a form of scamming and finally my sister too started using and earning bitcoin, but it lasted for just few months as she had a good day job.

You are experiencing the same problem as me ?? Please, Let me know how to say it for my friend or family !!

I experienced that situation to, happened to me also this problem how to know what is bitcoin. Maybe without knowing bitcoin is difficult to understand, Just explain one by one what bitcoin it is.

We knew all here that bitcoin is not that easy to understand. Particularly for a people who first time hear bitcoin, of course to them bitcoin is too deep to understand and can't get easily the point of it. So best way is we need to be statistically of how are we going to open up to our friend and family and loved ones.

I think three words could be enough to define newbie about bitcoin;
1. decentralized = mean this can't be shut down by even FBI or governments
2. anonymous = you can store whatever amount of bitcoin you have without giving any details to authority or tax office
3. secure = nobody can even move a single penny from your bitcoin address, even banks governments can't just freeze your money/bitcoin.

point 2 and 3 are not so clear. everybody can move all your bitcoins to his own address if he has your private key. people need to be educated about this. you can not sell a safe door lock and forget to tell the owner that he has to be cautious about the key. to be completely anonymous is not so easy. just using bitcoin wont do the trick. also it is not a taxfree ride.

Bitcoin the most secure form of money with no central government or any single institute to control the flow of money so it's pretty cool to use bitcoin instead of real money because it gives us opportunity to earn money right from internet and access the money from internet itself. We have full freedom with our money and there is no one to ask for tax or whatever but there is small amount of transaction fees applicable for every transaction but that's too low to be considered. Explain this to you family and friends, they will get hints from these points

Just mention the highlights of your bitcoin journey. Nobody wants to hear about how you got scammed by an HYIP site or a cloud mining site. People only wants to hear positive things because negative things make them lose their interest. Simply tell them that it's how you get paid online. It's a currency just like dollars but it's in digital. There's no physical form of bitcoin so you can't actually show it to them. You can only show them your balance in your bitcoin wallet.

whenever i try to teach my friends about bitcoin they started staring me like i am asking them to gice their lifes. i know that studying something is quite boring but it can be intresting if they try to understand it atleast 1% of it but they simply ignores my words

mostly these are the same people who will later say: if only i knew about what this really is earlier. they might even complain to you that you should have made a better job explaining it to them so they would have come on board.

When we want to tell somebody about Bitcoin it would be wise to show them how does all of this work.People will better understand something if they see in practice rather then explaining them just in words.

If you have some skill make simple video or power point presentation,or just show them how is Bitcoin send/recive,how to use online/offline wallet and some basic things.

People are usually pretty skeptical and will hardly accept something that not understand fully.The process of introducing should go slowly and to be as simple as can be.

I already share my knowledge about bitcoin and some of them are interested i just show them actually so that they know how to use it and spend it..
And hoe to earn it.. also i tell them if they want to have business buying miner is a good idea to have passive income..

A business is a good idea, but mining is not a good passive income anymore. I think it's better to lend money to the casino than buy a miner. If you can make your family and friends use Bitcoins, you can get some referrals easily when you need it on any site. Extra profit!

Introduced bitcoin firstly then show then path to earn then comes where to store. Discuss its secure , anonymity, and advantages they will definitely like the money because it's advantaged and modern form of money where there is no tax applicable which attacks more user for heavy transaction across multi nation.

Well, My rule number one is to not tell that you are gambling on the net, it will not awake any positive reaction for sure.
To my parents and friends I tell like " I make money on the Internet. I am just commenting in english a thread and get some little payment on my online wallet." That's it. Usually it wakes up big interest, but when I point that everything is in English people just loose the interest, cause no one among my family or friends can speak or write it.

Start with introduction of bitcoin like wise, bitcoin is a digital money in common language but generally it's a peer to peer money transfer system which completely relays on digital system like computer to mine and store. But it could be accessed through smartphone too and somewhere bitcoin ATMs are also setup to help those guys who don't have smartphone or laptop but have a bitcoin card. It is centralized money and no one controls it flow it is controlled by group of miners across the world
