Bitcoin is nothing but same value as of your fiat currency but called as digital currency. It has a great feature that it's transactions are done anonymously with peer-to-peer. Today the Bitcoin value has grown a millionth of times.
Bitcoin is not the same as fiat if it was then we will not be here, while there are many differences one of the best is that bitcoin has a hard limit on the amount of bitcoin that are going to be printed and that is what makes bitcoin extremely valuable and that is why the price does not stop going up, since every four years the block reward gets halved and less and less coins enter the market.

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.

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.


Well to explain better, you need to tell him that bitcoin is an online currency or money, it has no physical form like cash. You can also tell him about earning it and the transactions.

Even now , there are many who have no idea about bitcoins and thus when they come across this word, many questions arises in their mind so they try to find the answer for it.

This is the way I explain them. Bitcoin is a worldwide modern 'cryptocurrency' that is legalized by the government. Bitcoin's system is a peer-to-peer, and transactions takes place between the users directly, without an intermediary. These transaction are verified by network nodes and recorded in a public distributed ledger called 'blockchain. Bitcoin is the first decentralized digital currency.
