Topic: I have started teaching Bitcoin to my Neighbors - page 3. (Read 1999 times)

Are there still people who haven't heard of bitcoin today? Yes, of course, there may be people who have not heard of it, but it doesn't make much sense to me that people who are interested in trading or investing are not aware of bitcoin. In the country I live in, I can say that everyone knows bitcoin, except for children and the elderly.

But what about illiterate people who have no trust on digital currency? It is so tough to teach about digital currency. Besides, we have to teach them about the risk of investment also. If we able to teach them both pros and cons of Bitcoin, I think they will be able to adopt with it easily.

Very good job indeed! I never did something so semi-professional but whenever a neighbour or relative asked me about Bitcoin and its price I always try to explain them what blockchain technology is, what are benefits of that technology, how to send or receive money etc. In overall it helps people to change their lives. Many people started asking me how to trade stable coins when there are issues with banking etc. Most people her learned about Binance and Bitcoin through young people like us.

Cryptocurrency is introduced as new currency. It is necessary to know about it because it helps in future. In future we can pay bills through Cryptocurrency and this feature started from last year. Many companies, hotels, shops Accept Cryptocurrency as a cash payment. I have shared BTC information with my neighbors and they are interested in Cryptocurrency. I only gave them hint now they auto search on google and youtube and they are learning about it.

Hello everyone here in this forum, If you remember I made a topic here about the plan to teach Bitcoin in my Subdivision area. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/educate-my-community-here-in-subdivision-about-bitcoin-5404886

It took quite a few weeks before I was able to give you updates, and finally some of my neighbors who told me and showed interest in what Bitcoin is all about and how it can help them, they agreed to arrange their schedule so that I could teach them and here it is and it happened and it was held in my own little home. And the funny thing here is that they are all young people, and currently studying, they showed interest in what I am doing with bitcoin, what it really is. These are just some of the pictures that I will show you that I myself was really happy with them that's why I didn't regret to give them time and even it was conducted in my house in this regard.

This is the first step topic that I taught them first, it's really basic and I explained to them slowly and properly in our language, the funny thing is that they came to my house with a small notebook and a ballpen to jot down the important points I will make.

According to the image you see above, these young people told me that they got interested because it was their parents who encouraged them to come for me to teach them about what I was doing with bitcoins and their parents said that even though I am not employed or unemployed, I can still pay my monthly billings, rental house, internet bill, electricity, and water bill within 6 years. And the rest of them are already 27yrs old, 22, 18, and 17 years old. And they are all inspired by what I do. after the first session, they had questions about what I taught them about bitcoin, and they were completely satisfied with the answer they like to hear from me.

The beauty of it is that before the end of our bitcoin session, the five of them agreed that every twice a month there will be a small home party session here at my house. I said no problem and I will give it to them for free. One of the young people even said that he gradually understood bitcoin and plans to make it a secondary payment option in their small sari-sari store here in our subdivision. But for now, he will study for now. That's why the basic usages and benefits was the one I tackled in the first place.

So my only request to the other members here in this forum is to teach me what can be taught to them that I may not know at the moment, although I am not an expert here but only basic thing about bitcoin that I share with my acquaintances here in the community I'm in. So you are free to provide additional knowledge on this matter and I am willing to accept it because I am also one of those who are still learning about bitcoin.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this topic I made, and I will continue to give you updates on my next teaching to these young people. God bless you all

many responded that bitcoin was very instant, only selling, buying in one market and lack of info. home even though not everyone accepts and learns it. I'm sure crypto is not far from fomo which makes the crypto teaching and learning process grow even though it's not an official channel or school path. Unfortunately the media is also sometimes balanced by fud by people whose analysis is not yet mature so that beginners should be able to hear the news circulating. I positively agree with the referrals and volunteers who educate patiently.

@Mr. Magkaisa

You are doing a great job. I always like people who teach others about bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a whole.
Although you are doing a great job by initiating this step to teach your neighbors about bitcoin I would say you to go step by step so that they can get to learn it in detail.

For example:
You have to teach them everything session by session. These sessions can consist of different things involved in bitcoin and blockchain.
Your sessions may include the below.

Peer to Peer technology and the decentralized web
Cryptocurrency
Blockchain
Wallets
Making transactions
Block explorers
Different kinds of addresses
Lightning Network
Altcoins
Stable coins
Bitcoin core
Running a full node

These can be explained on a high level. Once all of these are completed you can go much deeper into the technology
Also, while teaching them make sure you include the practicals because showing how it works in practicality will make them understand better.

The idea you present looks good, but it will also take more time for the teacher to use. Because telling about Bitcoin to neighbors also has to prepare some material to be explained to them and also the explanation must be easier to understand so as not to take more time in teaching and introduction.
Because now very few people want to teach for free, especially if the thing being taught is about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

I think this is the best way to provide understanding and introduce bitcoin to your neighbors, especially they look very young whose understanding is very easy to catch the discussion you have talked about Bitcoin. Continue to do so that they truly believe that Bitcoin is very important for the development and excellent insight about Bitcoin and crypto in the future, especially in this era of increasingly sophisticated technology so that they can help you convince everyone in your area to understand Bitcoin and how to use bitcoins.

Good to see op's work. I can remember, when I come into crypto, there was no one around to help me for better understand it. From this point, present peoples are lucky who are interested in learning about Bitcoin, Crypto. There are many people around them, who are ready to help.
