Ok, I know it's kind of old news, but I think we need more people with the patience and drive to explain Bitcoin to newbies like these guys at Paxful

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRcA01xt2L0&feature=share

I think they totally get it and have the vision to take it mainstream with patience and hard work. If we want more people/merchants to accept BTC or to use it, we need to

engage in 1 on 1 engagement with them. Most people have only read bad things in the media and their fears are legitimate. I engage in these discussion on a daily basis and

I hear terrible stories about Bitcoin, most of it bad. I then discuss this with these people, and within 15min to 30min they get the true picture and they start using Bitcoin.

We need more services like this, that would engage in 1-on-1 discussion with people. {Either via online chat services or phone calls}

Where are the companies supporting new Bitcoin adoption, and how are they doing it? People need personal assistance at first to get the safest possible route into Bitcoin and

they will continue using it, if it was a good experience.

Come share your stories here, on how you first heard of Bitcoin and how you would have wanted to hear about it. Good or bad.. Let's make it better for everyone.  Wink

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Yes I agree they are doing some really good job. I followed them on reddit during the backpage happening.
Another video they made "the backpage effect" is also worth to watch it.

I salute those guys!!!

I salute these guys, this is really hard, hard work, but this is what will lead us to that much wanted mass adoption. Everybody should take a look at this video, to actually understand better, how much we are not ready yet for mass adoption.

People say, we'll it's easy to scan a QR code and hit a send button. But in the video, they actually explain how hard is to even a copy and past and address for some people and how many decimal numbers scare people.

So it's not just buying and securing bitcoins which is hard, even the basic sending operations can be overwhelming to many.

Great to see there are people who have a vision to bring Bitcoin go to mainstream through teach people how to use it, although it's still need more effort to bring mass adoption but this is good effort.

Well my experince when first time heard about Bitcoin is good thing, come from some article and ads. First glance maybe affected the views of people against Bitcoin.

I agree with this. I had a hard time explaining Bitcoin to a friend of mine and he has been in IT for 23 years. ^Whoa^
There are so much FUD being spread around by Shills and Bitcoin haters, that people will get confused with what is fake and what is facts.

These guys have done a great job to bring 4000 people to Bitcoin, even though it was due to a push factor and necessity, rather than pure curiosity. I would have liked to hear from some of those people and how Bitcoin saved their business after the credit card companies stopped supporting BackPage.  ^thrilled^
