Bitcoins, also known as BTC, is a operated on a decentralized platform. It is created by an unknown person or group which goes by the name Satoshi. It was the only coin in the market and has literally created the crypto market. And till now, it is the best coin to invest in.

Yes that's right. Bitcoin is a digital currency. It is only virtual but it can concerted to a real money. It is the king of all crypto currencies.

Bitcoin is a new type of currency that will replace all currencies that currently exist. Bitcoin is not controlled by anybody except you and is the safest currency on the planet. I think this is the most complete definition for Bitcoin.

The "gold" in the Internet, this is what I often explain to my friends. Although Bitcoin does not realize the replacement of gold, it is moving toward this goal!

Often I'm asked to explain BTC to someone and occasionally I come up with something stellar that really nails it, but most times it's a rambling incoherent mess.

What I would like to see is a short and simple explanation of what BTC is that is suitable for someone non-technical to understand.

I prefer black text, the color of this post makes me rather uncomfortable

I found the following: "Bitcoin is digital money that is tamperproof and openly traded." Short and precise in my opinion.

For more information about it, I highly recommend the following article (It's actually exactly about how to explain Bitcoin in short Wink )

I know your pain, i have exactly the same. Its hard to tell someone what bitcoin is, because you have no idea where to start. If you will be too much vague it will make no sense at all to person listening to you.
Its revolutionary technology without central authority as store of value/currency. Not even sure which one Tongue

Bitcoin was invented as a peer-to-peer system for online payments that do not require a trusted central authority. Bitcoin is the first digital currency that is completely distributed. But I think many people know it as the technology behind Bitcoin, but blockchain potential uses extend far beyond digital currencies. However, often I'm asked to explain bitcoin to someone and occasionally I come up with something stellar that really nails it, but most time it's rambling incoherent.

Bitcoin is not a virtual currency but a real money or another means of "cryptocurrency". Many people who are new to information or do not have enough information or call bitcoin is a virtual currency, this way is easy to mislead people who do not know about bitcoin.

I usually explain this to friends and colleagues around me. Bitcoin is a way to pay for blockchain merchandise. It is a symbol of freedom because it is not controlled by anyone or the government!

At present, Bitcoin information is quite popular and widely spread on forums, websites, people who do not know Bitcoin can take the time to read articles or study about it easily. I think you do not need to post to ask this question.

I lost people when I tell them about distributed decentralized ledger blockchain - the technology that powers Bitcoin and ensure data integrity. I find it difficult to explain to people and they get lost most of the time.

Then i just tell them that it BTC is a invisible gold.

Maybe if i were you, i would explain like this:
Bitcoin is a kind of digital currency that has the same currency value that can be traded like usd, poundstering, etc,
the difference is because of bitcoin is digital currency so there is no physical form like physical currency.
