The best way to teach someone about Bitcoin is to actually decide what they know first and foremost. From there, you actually can create the learning curve and overall process for them. It's always important to make sure you SIMPLIFY explanations as to what it is. The very first time I was explained Bitcoin, the person said, and I quote "It's a dynamic range of code occupied to transfer monetary value from one unit to the next" and I had to ask him to dumb it down a bit. He didn't even tell me HOW that's possible of WHY.


Slow down. That's my advice.

Just try to teach them once and if they are interested they will start working on it, don't waste your precious time as time is more important, if they don't get into it then its their bad luck.

yeah, just tell them about that currency and give some beneficial information about and then leave them, one day they themselve will continue to start adopting bitcoin,

I tried to teach someone to learn tbicoin lately and what i'm planing to do is to buy a video tutorial in lynda.con which is "up and running with bitcoin". I wanna teach him to simply earn by joining forum posting at first then gradually helping him to learn altcoin trading. I'm not sure how this will work but i get to download this video tutorial through torrent site Smiley

This is what I am also trying to make. Or some pictures or screenshots that can take the teaching to a higher level. Talk wont do much sometimes. Proofs are needed to strongly make the person get a spark in making him/her a bitcoin user or investor.
Videos are much better way than by talking. Because most of the people are getting bored when  listening to other people unless they find it is fruitful to them. But initially we need to convince the new people at least to pay some concentrations. So, pictures or videos will do better.

In my opinion, the best method to teach someone about Bitcoin is by inviting him to this forum, so he can learn a lot about crypto currencies

Exactly someone coming into bitcoin forum would really understand and learn much about the bitcoin and all relating technologies.

the easiest way of teaching someone about bitcoin (or anything else) is to use a good video. it is faster too.
and there is a lot of good videos that you can choose to show for bitcoin


Just tell them that they can earn money from it and I bet they will start to know bitcoin on their own, and they will try to collect as many information related to bitcoin.

It will be really helpful if your "student" know english to learn about bitcoin here. If not, better try to find another way to teach. I know that here existing different topics on different languages but i am not recommend it.

There are some youtube videos that can explain the nature and basics of bitcoin to start with. You can also go to forums and blogs to gain more knowledge about bitcoin, bitcoin mining, cryptocurrency trading, etc.
If you're planning to teach bitcoin to children, I am afraid but it will be hard. Maybe some teacher right there can make a way to explain what bitcoin is

BTC to the moon is inevitable...

A cool thing to do is to tell about the advantages between banks and blockchain. About the bordless thing. Anything that could make the unknown (and sometime untrust) world close to the normal (ordinary) people. It's hard, but at least there are few books to help in this "mission".

Mate if they are not tech friendly then it will complicate them by teaching about blockchain, as they are very new to it so we need to keep it simple at the primary stage, if they find it simple then will surely try it.

i agree. in my experience a lot of people will stop listening if you start talking about technical stuff no matter what you are talking about (bitcoin or anything else) when it gets to technical stuff you will bore the hell out of them.

The best way to teach someone about new thing is giving him the chance to try . so the first step is to do a small giveaway to that person and to teach him the basic of the wallet \security ..etc
Then you might tell him how to spend that a mount of bitcoin in payment or trading.
I did it before with someone nowadays he is more addict than me.

That could work. In my case everything is free. A friend told me about faucet first. Started with that option or earning then tried to widen it more asking my friend how to get more. I think it will be all about the person on how he will be willing to do it and pursue more.
Yes faucet are gateway for many people here including myself. You will get start using and adopting with bitcoin system when you obtain some for free. Then you will get more interest to learn how it works.

Yes faucets are best for newbies who wants to learn about bitcoin or who wants to start earning bitcoin, as once you start earning it for free you will be more keen to earn more and try to find different ways to earn it.

To teach someone about Bitcoin, i think you have to start with offering him some coins as gift and then you can start telling him more about how it works and that it's a real money and could be used like fiat

That will be good at the initial stage, but we need to make sure that after we offer him some coins they should also actively participate in earning it.

It is like we give them chance to try Cryptocurrency, It sounds good mate. In my opinion if they was interest and know if they can get advantage or easiness from bitcoin, they will stay to use bitcoin actively Wink

Well first of all, show them what you got. Don't show them too much that you didn't know also.

If they saw it and impress with the earnings you got and they are really eager to learn they will seek you for more information.

I would agree that, first of all, you should understand the needs of a person. Why could he/she be interested in BTC/crypto.
