When Bitcoin first appeared, many people talked about it in IRCs, mailing lists and forums like Bitcointalk.org. These online meetups were often where people first heard about digital money in the early days. These forums were used to spread the first adoption and discuss how to manage the network. These social media hotspots became the first breeding grounds for Bitcoin. Forums such as the P2P Foundation, Bitcointalk.org and Linux Foundation lists were used to discuss the new idea. Another extensive directory of computer activists was the Cypherpunks Mailing List. The list of associated members began in 1992 discussing computer science, the advantages of cryptography and software use-cases. Today, Bitcoin is a global phenomenon and you can track its exponential rise on several more social media platforms. Now, users on Facebook, Twitter and Reddit discuss cryptocurrency on a daily basis. Significant announcements and discussions take place in these online forums. As a result, the value of cryptocurrency solutions is way more prominent. Even development teams and cryptocurrency projects operate their platforms around social media

Yes simply telling our friends about bitcoin is not that easy. Well as of now, it gained so much attention when it reached million as per our currency. I have watched about bitcoin on our local tv station. They warned others about the scam and some showed what bitcoin is. Now it is gaining popularity here in our country.

I have discovered that telling my friends about bitcoin is a waste of time they will go to their graves claiming bitcoin is a scam and there is nothing I can do to convince them, if you show them proof that bitcoin is going up then they say it is a bubble and that cannot be maintained, if the price is down then bitcoin is crashing according to them and if the price is not moving then this shows lack of interest of the population.

Well, the media doesnt participate into making it popular but we have the internet now.
It is spread all over the social media and other forums. Also with blogs and other websites that is being paid for advertisement.

I do think that is enough. Why? Look at the world now. It is like everyone now have a smartphone and are online all the time. The world is changing and the news now can also be seen in social medias with shares.

Actually Local media is already contributing to these popularity. We have been seeing news and advertising on TV about the Cryptocurrency.

All the mass media should speak about the crypto currency, which we are observing. I, for example, first heard about the crypto currency from the plot on TV. And it's great that the whole sphere is gaining such a crazy popularity and everyone is talking about it.

You have to convince the media to report something that is beneficial to cryptos and is actually going to be something that sounds good for the community in whole if you want them to report anything at all. Fear sells, telling people bad news and all the things wrong with the world is going to get a lot better results than telling people about the good things that are happening. There is nothing "good" to report about cryptos, in the media's perspective, aside from when it tumbles down and a lot of people lose their money. It's pretty terrible, honestly.

Spreading information by word-of-mouth is the most effective thing that can be done right now.

Well, the media can help alot in spreading information about bitcoins/other cryptocurrencies, but the problem I am observing is that there is alot of negativity about cryptocurrencies in news channels,etc. mainly about bitcoins. I mean alot of them are just showing that people lost their money through investing into bitcoins and stuff like that. I don't know why they don't show the advantages of cryptocurrencies. Social media like youtube, facebook, twitter and reddit can play an important role in spreading info about cryptos and it is doing that.

First crypto index traded as a token!

Nowadays cryptocurrency is already spread in many countries. With the spectacular upswing bitcoin had last year, it even made it to the prime time news on tv and on the radio. Broadcasting on these media is the best way to make crypto mainstream. But social media is the new way to spread the news and since last year millions of people must have heard about Bitcoin on social media. It's a fact that today Bitcoin is known all over the world.

The easiest way to distribute information about Bitcoin is via the Internet, as here all his activities are concentrated. Well, do not forget about TV and newspapers, they are also part of our information field, albeit to a lesser extent.

it will grow naturally, with or without the crappy mainstream media. I see bitcoin as something totally detached from mainstream media, and that's a good thing.

The most important thing is to convince most people that bitcoin is not fraud, that it is absolutely safe and you can safely invest money in it. The main problem is precisely this. To do this, it is necessary to use the main TV channels of the countries, they will be able to convince people

Bitcoin has mostly spread over the internet thank to its nature, however as more money begins to be invested in bitcoin then the more attention is going to be given by the traditional media, like the TV or the radio, once that happens then bitcoin will spread all over the world but even then there are many people that are not going to hear from bitcoin since they lack access to those communication channels.

The dissemination of truthful information about bitcoin is very important for cryptology. Due to the lack of this information, many people have a vague idea of him, and therefore there is less confidence in him.

Television, the Internet, newspapers, this is an ideal platform for educating people about bitcoin. If we tell people about it word-of-mouth, it will drag on for many years. And the trust in proven sources - large TV channels and newspapers - is much higher.

Yes that's right, just telling friends or family doesn't really change much.
But still, it's effective to make more people know about crypto currency, and even invest in them. Because we can convince more and be the real proof about the success of crypto.
But media can reach wider people, i think it'll be great if television or maybe newspaper show news about crypto, maybe short advertisement that tell and introduce bitcoin a bit, and such so people will know about bitcoin more and more.

This will only affect people who have an open mind and are willing to accept technological developments, especially in financial technology. For those still conventional thinking will be difficult to accept this, although the information is widespread through social media.

I have learned these crypto's in social medias through FaceBook, there's some one who posted about bitcoin cryprocurrencies and i starting to follow his post and PMed him that i am curios about crypto's. So that was really help me by spreading in social media's about crypto's and become very well known to the people. I keep asking until i found out that one of my friend work here in forum about crypto's and that's the time he teach me via verbal way of teaching.

The Best medium to spread the word is, "Word of Mouth" and I have personally experienced that.

YES! i absolutely agreed with you sir i experienced with that. Shocked

The best option is social media for bitcoin because we can found new user of the bitcoin there. In social media if there is any person , he is well known to the internet and technology, so by this way we can easily spread the bitcoin in short duration . while if we user other media like TV, it will hard then social media because every user of that media is not familiar to internet and technology. Another good way is to guide our friends and relatives about the bitcoin through our daily life converssions which may be social media or other media.

In Australia the media is already talking about crypto a lot. There seems to be a lot of excitement and the media is just tapping into it. A win win for both parties imo
