One day, I think to myself about how to spreads bitcoin to other people. After I create threads https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/did-you-arrange-a-meet-up-or-make-a-gathering-with-local-bitcoin-community-5191717, I see many of us don't try or don't have time to come into a gathering or make a meetup. So how we can introduce bitcoin to local people in our country if we are not trying to tells them about bitcoin? I know that will related to the regulations in every countries but we can introduce to our close friend so they will spread it into their closest friends too.

And if this is succeed, I think cryptocurrency will grow step by step. I know we can spread bitcoin online, but that doesn't mean all people in your country are aware of bitcoin. How they can know bitcoin if they never use the internet to search the news while we can tell them about bitcoin and another coin by offline.

one thing I could suggest in order to spread information to the general public of bitcoin is to set up large scale meetings, like those talk events they at TED talk in order to effectively amass people while ensuring that information regarding bitcoin is scattered. Another thing we could do is to create vlogs/blogs on social networking as social media proves to be one of the best mediums of information at this day and age

I see contradicting statements to your last sentences. You said you wanted to introduce Bitcoin to those people that are not connected to the Internet, or offline. So, even if you succeed telling them about bitcoin, you'll have a hard time explaining them the concept because they might lack computer and internet literacy. And one thing to add is how will they access and interact actively to the Bitcoin network when they're mostly offline.

It will be really difficult to introduce to people about bitcoin who are not connected to internet or offline, especially for those people who haven't use a computer or a smartphone in their entire life because they cannot follow us when we start explaining it to them. We should only introduce people about bitcoin if they are really interested to it and they have knowledge about computer and they can go online? So that we don't have any problems explaining it to them.

i agree . this is why i dont talk about bitcoin to the people near me because i dont know if they have basic knowledge on using an internet or not . im still a well known guy on our place because i can fix stuffs related to phones and other gadgets . if there will be curious people that wanted to know bitcoin and crypto , they can just ask me directly about it and i wont hesitate to help them out . i will share my knowledge that i learn on the past two years on this space .

They are only interested in prices, and are always amazed by the highest price of BTC. $ 7,000 is enough to make locals curious and interested. I only explained a little about how to make small and continuous profits with a variety of basic trading knowledge, their enthusiasm peaked when they were able to condition the advantages and disadvantages when trading bitcoin.

Local residents are usually more interested in the price of bitcoin because they will focus more on things that are profitable. after that if they are interested then we can start to provide information about bitcoin and ways to use it. and of course when they start asking questions, we have to understand more about the concept of crypto currencies

How we can introduce bitcoin to local people is to start by educating them to know there is a crypto currency that is used for the purpose of trading, investment and others. We should enlighten them that Bitcoin is a digital currency which uses Blockchain Technology. As we introduce bitcoin to them, it will also be of benefit to also teach them how to use smartphone for the purpose of trading, which may be short term or long term trading. The volatility of bitcoin should also be what they are exposed to, those who show intrest can be assisted in investing in bitcoin for a short term basis for a start. The knowledge in blockchain Technology will go a long way in their interest in crypto currency.

Most of us didn’t “get it” the first time we heard about bitcoin. Learning this stuff is difficult not only because of new words and technology but also because this subject challenges beliefs people have had all their lives. In 20 years time the whole world will get to know the value of Bitcoin

That is by far one of the biggest challenges for bitcoin, the average person doesn't really understand why we need bitcoin and they do not understand it because they have completely false and mistaken beliefs about the way their money works, to this day I still find many people that think that our money is backed by gold or silver and when I try to explain to them that the currencies around the world are all fiat and are not backed by anything they do not want to believe it.

you dont have to bother yourself because just like us we come to invest because we are destined to be here so even how hard you try to encourage them yet it wont be enough because they must learn the benefit and advantage of crypto before they become interested

we knew people around us and we can assess if they are ready or not,so just continue your routine and whenever theres a chance then extend you effort but dont push to hard because you might be frustrated.

Absolutely, especially to me that I really don't have any idea at all and still figuring out how it is possible, I believe in other forms of investments such as stock market and gold, but I can't believe that there can be a digital currency until I did my own research and checking out its advantage and disadvantage. I also introduce this to my friends by telling them that I am earning from online job too and explaining a bit from it for those who are interested.

I think the best way to do that is to make Bitcoins a subject in the Computer science subject in schools and this way it could reach all the people and also it could be known by the kids from their early life and they could tell their parents too , at the same time one should understand that you could first tell your family members about it and then think of telling someone else because everything starts from your family , try telling your elders how it is important and all and then you could hold workshops in your school or university about Bitcoins .

What's interesting is that they are starting to implement this in some places. And it's not only on the level of some local geeks, but on the level of Ministry of National Education, like in France, for example:

https://www.fxstreet.com/cryptocurrencies/news/frances-ministry-of-national-education-introducing-bitcoin-to-school-curriculum-201911051736

And here's another example, this time from the USA. Since 2018, Union Catholic Regional High School in Scotch Plains, New Jersey, has been teaching its students about cryptocurrencies:

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/02/07/bitcoin-education-at-high-schools-and-colleges.html

Obviously, this trend will only be growing in the nearest future, and those educational institutions who will try to ignore it will be depriving their students of the important knowledge.

I don't think that companies will allow seminars with their company that is not connected to their business. Seminars inside the companies are not 100% sure will introduce bitcoin to local people, not all companies will allow that, because as long as they will not benefit by that seminar they will not waste their time to do seminars that they don't know if that will increase their profit.

With the proper arrangement and proposal for sure some companies will allow it, or if not, why not conduct a seminar in public, let's say in a public plaza where there's a lot of local people that can attend. Anyway, hope there will be a group for each country that will initiate some blockchain seminars and events where people can freely ask too, as of the moment, there are seminars but they are just making a brief info about Bitcoin as they are more focus on their platform.

I don't know if people will go even it will conducted on public plazas, most of them are not interested with tech and most of them who were on that place are only looking for leisure and pleasure maybe it is better if there will be an organization who will conduct a free seminar and it will be conducted on universities and colleges that are much effective.

Who do you think will do that free seminar if they will not going to benefit to that seminar then no one will do that, aside from that even if we were going to introduce bitcoin to them, it will not benefit anyone and there is no owner of this bitcoin so who will organize those seminars? I don't think there is someone who will do it so that a lot of us will have a lot of knowledge to know about it.

the easiest step is to provide direct knowledge, as I did. I introduce bitcoin directly from 1 person and then they introduce it to other people. it will be easy and will not waste time for us

How they can know bitcoin if they never use the internet to search the news while we can tell them about bitcoin and another coin by offline.

This is an interesting topic that requires careful analysis and suggestion on how to bring not just bitcoin but cryptocurrency in general to everyone around us. In some countries, anything connected to the internet is often termed fraudulent by most persons due to their past experiences or stories they must have heard. Nonetheless, with proper approach, we can introduce everyone around us to Bitcoin. One important thing we must be mindful of when introducing bitcoin to the public is emphasizing on possible roi over a period of time.
When introducing Bitching to those around us, we must be patient with them to enable them fully understand the concept. Remember the technology behind Bitcoin is somewhat complex.

The topic of the blockchain has a high entry threshold, which I think is right, since with the growth of the popularity of crypto, the number of scammers, etc. will increase, so Bitcoin is only for educated people)

unfortunately I don't see a lot of education that deals with blockchain technology in a complex way, so you can't argue that way. I am more focused on the desires of knowledge owned by someone and education makes people selected by their level of education, and underestimate people who learn freely.

Why? I don't think there is necessity to introduce Bitcoin to other people. Note, it could be very difficult to do that, for example to an older people, some of them don't what bank transfers are. BTC doesn't need any advert or something. It will promote itself over time, take it easy

You should not close your eyes about parents, some parents at my place know about bitcoin technology and we used to talk about that technology. I think the best way to provide knowledge to local residents about this technology is by exchanging ideas, you will find that many people already know bitcoin but they don't know how to use it and there you can provide some information

Yeah, I don't close my eyes, I know that there are older people who are into that stuff. However I think they are a minority. I could be interested topic for some them, of course, but it might be hard to implement that to their lives

And the few that have tried to try to promote bitcoin among the people that they know have failed miserably, I know because I tried, I tried to get some of my friends and people that I know to adopt bitcoin and I was completely unsuccessful, they thought that I will get a benefit out of it when the only thing that I was trying to do was to help them to be part of what I think is going to be one of the best investments in this century, after some time I gave up and since then I do not recommend bitcoin to anyone or even talk about the subject.

Lol. If people actually come over because of free food, they pretty much won't have any interest in what you're going to share. It's because of the free food anyways. And btc or eth or xrp are too valuable to give away so you would likely opt for shitcoins just to let them feel how it is to hold crypto. Which obviously won't work for their undrstanding as well. People have been hearing about bitcoin and crypto for a while now and there are those who are genuinely interested. I think we should focus on them first.

Correct, we should focus right now on those people who has been interested in crypto as this people can unite in the future to introduce this to the world, we cannot force most of the people to do and to know more about Bitcoin if it doesn't permit their means or they are not yet interested in exploring it, so let us just focus little by little to those people for now.

There might be times that they'll be forced to use Bitcoin especially when things go rough into finding items that they need. Especially that e-commerce is already common to people in social media, they might consider investing already in Bitcoin due to its convenience to buying stuffs online and also as an investment tool for them to get rich in the farther future.

The fact is that cryptocurrency is a value only for a certain circle of people, because for this activity or to use cryptocurrency, a person must have certain knowledge. Nevertheless, if we take the residents of India for example, especially if we take their social standard of living, then for many citizens, cryptocurrency is a very valuable asset and almost the only source of income that can improve their lives. Of course, we are not talking about the daily use of cryptocurrency, but nevertheless, I am talking about the great demand for cryptocurrency for many people in this context.
