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.

Definitely will tell him to google it and after that, I will explain the basic to at least trigger his interest.  I believe information on the site is much precise than what we will explain to them.  Since most of us is not a programmer, nor know the whole information about Bitcoin (majority here just know how to send and receive bitcoin from a third site, I have met people who do not know how to create a wallet in electrum) it is best to advise them to search what Bitcoin is.  It saves us a lot of time and the one looking for an answer will have a robust source of information.
Exactly right, and of course if someone was being interested, it doesn't really mean you have to feed up all the answers he would ask, but probably let him be independent and seek his own answers. Because actually, if you keep on depending into someone it will only lead that you don't have that much knowledge on what you are going through, as for an example, Bitcoin, you need to learn it by yourself and have your own knowledge and understanding about this matter if you are really willing.

Bitcoin is the first global, decentralized currency that allows you to send money from one person to another without involving a third party broker, such as a bank. You only need your computer to make transactions because Bitcoin is fundamentally software.

As a decentralized currency, Bitcoin isn’t controlled by anyone. It’s open so that anyone can benefit from it.

You might think that the lack of control could mean chaos, but that’s not true at all. That’s because Blockchain, the technology behind Bitcoin is one of the most accurate and secure systems ever created.

Bitcoin Advantages:
Freedom in Payment
With Bitcoin it is very possible to be able to send and get money anywhere in the world at any given time.You don’t have to worry about crossing borders, rescheduling for bank holidays, or any other limitations one might think will occur when transferring money.You are in control of your money with Bitcoin. There is no central authority figure in the Bitcoin network.

Control and Security
Allowing users to be in control of their transactions help keep Bitcoin safe for the network.Merchants cannot charge extra fees on anything without being noticed. They must talk with the consumer before adding any charges.Payments in Bitcoin can be made and finalized without one’s personal information being tied to the transactions.Due to the fact that personal information is kept hidden from prying eyes, Bitcoin protects against identity theft.Bitcoin can be backed up and encrypted to ensure the safety of your money.

Information is Transparent
With the block chain, all finalized transactions are available for everyone to see, however personal information is hidden.
Your public address is what is visible; however, your personal information is not tied to this.Anyone at anytime can verify transactions in the Bitcoin block chain.Bitcoin protocol cannot be manipulated by any person, organization, or government. This is due to Bitcoin being cryptographically secure.

Very Low Fees
Currently there are either no fees, or very low fees within Bitcoin payments.
With transactions, users might include fees in order to process the transactions faster. The higher the fee, the more priority it gets within the network and the quicker it gets processed.
Digital Currency exchanges help merchant process transactions by converting bitcoins into fiat currency. These services generally have lower fees than credit cards and PayPal.

Fewer Risks for Merchants
Due to the fact that Bitcoin transactions cannot be reversed, do not carry with them personal information, and are secure, merchants are protected from potential losses that might occur from fraud.
With Bitcoin, merchants are able to do business where crime rates and fraud rates may be high. This is because it is very hard to cheat or con anyone in Bitcoin due to the public ledger, otherwise known as the block chain.

Well if someone ask me about bitcoins all i got to say is that it is a new form of digital currency which was created and held electronically in the year 2009 by an unknown person or a group or persons using the name sathoshi nakamoto.

Bitcoin is a digital currency and payment system that is completely different from usual currencies. It is the first invented cryptocurrency by Satoshi Nakamoto (2009). It’s called as decentralized digital asset or digital gold.

Bitcoin is an open source software which means that not any particular person, company or nation owns it (just like the internet). This follows peer-to-peer network i.e. 2 or more participants can transact individually without an involvement of bank or any central authority. Network servers authenticated such transactions and stored in public distributed ledger i.e. called the blockchain.

Definitely will tell him to google it and after that, I will explain the basic to at least trigger his interest.  I believe information on the site is much precise than what we will explain to them.  Since most of us is not a programmer, nor know the whole information about Bitcoin (majority here just know how to send and receive bitcoin from a third site, I have met people who do not know how to create a wallet in electrum) it is best to advise them to search what Bitcoin is.  It saves us a lot of time and the one looking for an answer will have a robust source of information.

I would explain bitcoin to a newbie in a way that he will be able to understand and maybe somehow develop some interest. In my opinion, bitcoin simply means internet money that can be transferred between peer to peer. There is no need to provide your names and they is no middle man, it is completely decentralised.

Bitcoin was created in 2009, by the programmer(s) named Satoshi Nakamoto. Only 21 million bitcoin were created and around 16 million are in circulation. Bitcoin has been gaining popularity and recognition throughout the years and now a lot of countries are adopting it and starting to use it.

Bitcoin/BTC is a digital currency that was created by a person or a group of person named Satoshi Nakamoto. They’re produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems.
It is just created by satoshi nakamoto and he is only one person. Satoshi Nakamoto created bitcoin because he want to change the system of our financial system because inflation rate is the main reason why people can become rich too because the prices of the goods are going up so the ability to buy goods for a poor person is getting lower so bitcoin will become a life saver for them to fight inflation.
