You only need very basic understanding of Bitcoin to use it. You don't have to spend hours learning just watch a few youtube videos, read a wallet tutorial.

To understand the basics you maybe need to spend 30 min. How much time is needed to get to know everything a user should know? 2 days? 5 days?

You spend more time learning to drive a car why would Bitcoin be difficult all of a sudden?

I do not think there is a perfect or complete book that teaches bitcoin. Everyone who have knowledge about bitcoin now did not learn it through some specific book or something.
Bitcoin emerged in late 2017, the full recognition of bitcoin was established in 2018 and I don't think that there are already a book that has the bitcoin as the main topic, add the fact that technology is always changing, once a book about bitcoin is published, within a year or two it will be outdated if and only if there are any progress happened to it. The best thing to look for any information right now is the internet, massive information lies on the internet rather than the book.

Bitcointalk is also another great way to get started. A quick search of 'learning bitcoin' will fetch quite a number of threads related to this. Trust me, there are several threads on this.
A forum like this is a tool for us, we can learn plenty of things in here, get the latest updates and we are able to know the hot topics and projects.

Peoples fine it difficult to understand what is cryptoccurrency most especially bitcoin,but their interested over cryptoccurrency.
I just suggest that their should be a TEXT BOOK that will discuss about cryptoccurrency in order to educate people who are interested because referring them to online shows that know Manuel evidence of cryptoccurrency. And if their is any article that guide bitcoin.

Bitcoin is easy to understand in my opinion as long as you know all the basics about it, and by just using bitcoin or experienced bitcoin you could easily learn a lot about it.

But still, bitcoin technology is a wide topic so there is obviously a lot of advanced part of it that is hard to understand, but for me, there is no need to learn everything about bitcoin and with just the basic knowledge about it, you could surely use it and earn a profit from it.

Textbook or articles online is I think effective to learn bitcoin in my experience, with just a bit of research about it you could already learn a lot of things. Still no need to learn everything, you don't need to know how the technology is going to work you just need to know how it works. There are people that are in charge of this advanced stuff something like programmers and developers.

Its going to be hard to find a text book about it but there is one that many might just suggest. There is a book about Mastering Bitcoin of Andreas Antonopoulos, it could be something really worth reading since many are also recommending it.

I haven't read it myself but most of the time whenever I wanna learn something I turn to youtube and I find more than just answers.

Yes your suggestion is right there is no perfect book published or article that gives full information to understand knowledge about bitcoin. The understanding of Bitcoin is not tough but there is no perfect or full guide by any knowledgeable person or community which leads to make bitcoin very tough to understand for a new person kn crypto community.

What about people who are not used to operates phones but their are interested to learn bitcoin, does it means that those people that do not have phones are not eligible to learn bitcoin?
I don't get your point. If someone is unable to operate a phone then what will they do by learning about bitcoin or cryptocurrency! Isn't it useless. Without operating a mobile phone or reletaed device like laptop/pc they won't be able to use crypto network.

Right here we are emphasising on internet and text books, because of elderly peoples who are bookish during their era but their are interested to study bitcoin
But they fine it very difficult to make use of internet or use internet for proper learning due to their haven't acclimatized themselves by using phones,so what are best option or remedy to educate them concerning bitcoin and crptocurrencies in general.

No doubt people want physical things they can touch and feel. Many still think bitcoin is a made up stuff that isn't real. They still want to be able to feel their money been spent that's exactly why they intentionally don't want to learn about bitcoin and not that it's too difficult to understand. If you're already good with operating your mobile phone you won't find it difficult learning the sending and receiving of bitcoin procedures.

It took me not more than minutes to learn them meaning it most likely won't take others the same. All I know in using bitcoin was self taught. You do not have to go reading books how how to do them when you can use a visual representation via youtube or personal coaching but if that's what you enjoy doing than that's cool. The best way to learn something fast in the industry is through experience.

I really know that everyone is making sense but we have to consider some certain factors that self education is really different from knowledge someone impact in us.

To my understanding nothing and I mean absolutely nothing is hard to understand . Man have the ability to learn and relearn. Understanding Cryptocurrency or rather bitcoin is a function of choice and the individual interest.like the popular saying goes “what is worth doing is what doing well” Cryptocurrency is worth understanding and we can go to any level to get its understanding without depending on any book/manuals. These the information and technology age, information are transmitted using different reliable and easily accessible platform. And I believe one with the urges to understand Cryptocurrency is not limited to using book or manuals.Thank you

Bitcoin isn't difficult to be understood. One just needs time to do that. There are many worthy books about the fist crypto. For example, "Mastering Bitcoin" by Andreas M. Antonopoulos, "The Book Of Satoshi" by Phil Champagne and "Bitcoin From Beginner to Expert" by Christian Newman.

If you search on YouTube "What is bitcoin", you will get some results. If you see their rating you can understand that no one understands them.

Classic example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4g1XFU8Gto
Sure, but let's not make conclusions based on one video. It's not like only Bitcoin has bad videos on YouTube, pretty much every single niche has. But it doesn't make the platform totally bad for researching purposes; you just need to find the right content.

I think Bitcoin is not difficult to understand, the most important thing is that we have the intention to learn everything about Bitcoin.
Because all information about Bitcoin is also not difficult to obtain, it is already spread in the internet world. In fact, this forum is quite
complete with information about Bitcoin that I can get.

We all know its easy by using internet to learn things about bitcoin but not really easy to everyone because the level of our understanding is differs.
Emphasising on text book is my major concerns base on people that can't afford phones or laptop and also old people  using screen to read because of the side effect of the light ray in their eye.

I understand that some people really having a hard time to learn about Bitcoin and other crypto currencies. Having a Textbook is one nice idea, but i guess it won't be that useful nowadays because we are fully digitalized and most people are turning to their computer and smartphones for research. I would like to suggest instead, if someone really wants to know and have much interests in Crypto world, constant research and watching videos about blockchain industry is a big help.

Searching from the internet will give us the result of what we want to know because we can browse in many website sources that we need to help us learn and understand something such as cryptocurrency. We can't depend on other people to gain knowledge because we need to search for ourselves. The more we can learn, the more we will know about something. The internet gives us an easiness to explore and learn cryptocurrency because I am sure that it will help us find what we want.

As long as we have passion about something, we will spend more time to find the answer, and we will search for many websites. The situation right now is not the same as a few years ago before cryptocurrency became popular. I am sure that we can find much interesting information related to cryptocurrency.

We are actually emphasising on internet and text book's because of two factors which are old people and young people and also rich and poor.
See for the old people will prefer to study cryptoccurrency with text book because reflection of light ray in screen always disturb them after reading while young people even refers onlines because they have acclimatized by using internet, in terms of poor and rich,its obvious that not many people that have the money to purchase phones that access internet.
Looking at those concept you understand that text book is more preferable than internet because everyone can use it and its for reference purposes.

Peoples fine it difficult to understand what is cryptoccurrency most especially bitcoin,but their interested over cryptoccurrency.
They find it difficult to understand because of the bad reputation that the mainstream media shows about bitcoin. When there are scams and hacks, they think that it's all bitcoin's fault which they think that it has its own understanding and thought to move alone.

The mainstream media never made it clear that bitcoin is the same as any other online payment method which can be used for both good and bad purposes.
Extremely right, due to the massive scam incidents that make bitcoin and the other crypto reputation becomes bad to the eye of the people but the fact the users on it who are lack of knowledge that makes them being scammed.

Physical books isn't necessary, once people engage on the internet they will possibly learn about the bitcoin and the technology. You can simply browse to find those information regarding bitcoin.We should teach them the usage of bitcoin not just the way the will earn through crypto.
Yes, those physical books aren't necessary but there are people who likes to read more things in a traditional way. And it's why some still look for books that has topics about bitcoin or being a book about bitcoin in the whole context.

But usually, bitcoin users are aware of the internet and things are searchable online. Well, IMO it's still a friendly thing to have those physical books and there's nothing wrong with it as long as it educates any person who reads it of what bitcoin is.

It fine to have a textbook but there is no available at this time talking about crypto. Well, it might not important to have it because the internet is also a reliable source that can help us to understand crypto and it is the fastest and easiest way to make a search. In fact, you can find a lot of sources online that a textbook might don't have but of course, you should also evaluate if that sources are legit or not.

We know that internet is a reliable source to get all necessary information concerning cryptoccurrencies but some people are old enough not to use screen to read because of their eye problem, so in this case what is going to be the solution of case.
