What do you say when asked this question from a friend who has only heard its name mentioned a few times in the news and has no clue. I find myself lately taking the easy way out and suggesting google. I would prefer to give a clearer answer, but usually saying something leads to more questions and more confusion.
If someone could point me to a twitter type answer that would inform and twig their curiosity, i think it would be a better outcome.


I think Bitcoin is a kind of money which investor can invest in it and earn the profit. Besides, It can be used for transaction payment without the third party. And bitcoin is a digital or crypto currency.

Bitcoin mining is extracting bitcoins by solving complex mathematical problems. It is called mining because it resembles the original process of mining metals and minerals. The mining cost increases with time, quantity of bitcoins remains reduce with time pushing the prices of bitcoins up, that is similar to what happens in precious metals like gold and silver.

Bitcoin is a money through online. Bitcoin is a money in the internet which are most of the people wasn't know this yet. Bitcoin right now has a high price. It is the money from the internet which can help you on everything. Bitcoin helps people who knows this already. Being a newbie heDre, that was what I can say about bitcoin. It can help people (eg.if they need a job through online) there they can work here if they want.

Bitcoin is a crypto currency which means it’s a digital asset designed to work as a medium of exchange in transactions, working on cryptography, which makes it more secure in a controlled environment for creating additional units and verifying the assets.
 
It’s an interesting opportunity to earn more and more.  Nothing to worry about how to carry it because of it being in crypto form.
 
Caution, its decentralized till date and in many countries Bitcoin is not legal currency

Bitcoin is a form of digital currency created and held electronically. No single entity controls it and aren’t printed, like dollars or euros – they’re produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world using software that solves cryptographic problems. Bitcoin is the first example of a growing economic industry known as cryptocurrency. It can be thought of as cash for the Internet.
A good opinion and I agree with your opinion.
To my knowledge of bitcoin is the first example of a growing industrial economy known as cryptocurrency even now bitcin is growing rapidly.

I find myself lately taking the easy way out and suggesting google. I would prefer to give a clearer answer, but usually saying something leads to more questions and more confusion.
If someone could point me to a twitter type answer that would inform and twig their curiosity, i think it would be a better outcome.
I also tell them to google it if they want more information. Honestly it's fucking annoying when people that are clueless start making all these questions. It's going to be easy for them to just start doing some research. I tell them that it's a decentralized currency but it's better used as a store of value rather than a currency because it's honestly pretty stupid to spend your BTC on groceries when you know it's going to go up, similarly to how it's stupid to buy groceries with gold.
I think this is a thing I usually encounter when someone wants to know what is bitcoin. Some of them, they just ask out of curiosity but there are still people who would ask me because they want to invest or put their money and time on it. But I think if they are really desperate to know what is bitcoin, they will be willing to find an answer without asking me all of it. I am the same at my first time here but I did not ask my friends so much about it but I've watch a lot of videos, read a lot of article to know more about it. You must not bear their problem but you just need to guide them.
Oh, come on... why not just make simple explanation for them by starting with what the original bitcoin white paper said, huh?
Let's makes this short: Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer electronic currency that is fast, secure, decentralized and acceptable worldwide.
People always want to hear something new and interesting, and when you explain bitcoin in this simple form by putting things together people will understand it very quick. Smiley

BitCoin is a virtual currency that can be used to transact online. If asked how this form of currency, which is clearly not like the form of physical currency issued by a bank and not the currency of a country. The shape of this unique currency is just a file like common files.
