Title: What is a good, short introduction video for Bitcoin
Post by: itsandylandman on February 13, 2018, 08:41:23 PM
Hey guys I have been trying to educate the people around me about BTC and blockchain tech, but am ending up getting a lot of blank stares.... I have tried to break it down to the smallest pieces when i explain it all, but nothing seems to be working... it seems like people are forming more questions in their head instead of actually listening, and i am growing quite weary (as charlie from sunny would say) of explaining the same thing over and over to people...
Can anyone point me to a good, short (like 5 min) video that gives a quick introduction to BTC that gets people thinking in the right direction??

Tell them whatever you know in the most simple terms.After that link them to this video:

Hail this guy aka Jesu stall man(he is the sticky of 4chan/g lol).

This video might make them more curious about cryptos.After this, just give them time.If they aren't lazy ignorant plebs, then they will try to know as much as they can.
Its been 5 years, since I get to know about bitcoins.And I am still learning! Once you enter this chain, you don't stop.

If you want to explain to people who aren't digitally active, then just tell them its a de-centralized currency who's value is determined purely by demand-supply; and other basic things.No need to get into blokchain,mining part.It's too complicated for them to grasp.That's where people get confused and lose their interest.
Good luck!

I find these to be good, but no one can get hooked onto bitcoin with only a 5 minute video, better check out videos from Andreas Antonopoulos (@aantonop on YT) if you want to truly understand how revolutionary this technology is. As for short videos, check these out:

Cool, thanks guys those are good videos. Andres is a bad-ass. I love the video of him explaining bitcoin to Canadian legislature.
I think I've been trying to explain WAY more than i need to like you said. Ill just focus on the decentralized currency based on supply and demand.
