You are experiencing the same problem as me ?? Please, Let me know how to say it for my friend or family !!
Ifyou are using bitcoin then you will definitely earn wit it and will have a lot of earning ways, try to tell them about that earnings, they will also want to earn that amount which you are earning, I think it is the method which people of all around the world attract.



First, I showed them a receipt which showed the money that I made when I sold some bitcoin.
Then, you tell them how you earned it online by studying and learning about bitcoin.
Lastly, when they have a grasp of how bitcoin works, you teach them ways of earning for themselves.
Money talks. People are hesitant about bitcoin because of the 'risks' of investing, but if you show them that you really can earn, then it would be easier to explain because you've already established that it can work.

I don't talk about bitcoin with my family because few things are better to keep secret. Bitcoin is an extra investment I have made and looking for a good return in long term.

But frankly, do I need to tell everything to my family? I don't think so. Even my wife don't know about my bitcoin earning. I do it mostly from my office.

However, I have tried to tell my friends about bitcoin, but they seem to be less interested and hence I stopped talking about bitcoin with them.

talking about bitcoin is little difficult to our friends but it is worse when we do it in our family. friends understand our  words because we always choose a friend who can understand the world like i do and family will get chances to scold us if they found it for any damaging or harmful reason

I usually it's just money on the Internet and they will all be like "Okay. I understand now." But some people still can't understand it so I explain much further. I say that like in the real world, there's also wallet, bank, and money on the Internet. Most of them asks where is my money and I say it's on my online wallet. There's no other way to show them that I actually have those money but to show them my wallet balance. I say that I could withdraw those money using my atm card.

I also point out the names of the people in my area that does bitcoin so they would know that Bitcoins is actually used by a lot of people and I'm not just a weird guy that's always in front of his PC.

IMO it's almost impossible to explain someone who have no idea about it what Bitcoin is and why it's good to buy it for the real money. I tried many times but I always hear something like this: " It's internet, you know, don't trust to what you see there, it's not real." ... Maybe only after you become rich due to Bitcoin, they'll hear you.

When I talk about it with my friends/family. I start by saying that I'm studying something new. That I discovered something really great so I know they will be somehow interested, then start to explain the basics about it and what the advantages are, then that's it. Then i say to them that this is what they need. It is a necessity.

I can relate to this. Just recently I was telling my friend about Bitcoins. He normally is a avid reader but for the first time he was like what is this. At first even I was not really sure whats the right way to explain it. Then I decided to give him a example by giving him our local currency and telling him as simple it gets this is Bitcoins. It's a crypto  currency and he understood it. Always use a example my Friend it works wonders

most people do not know much about money, so you can talk all you want and once you come up with the subject money, then they go "oh so this is what this is about. you want my money. this is a scam right?". and if you tell them you do not want there money, you want to change the world, then they think you are stupid. if you tell them to just learn about it, they will see it as a waste of time and not do it. only few are interested and usually those are the people who somehow question most things and come to money one way or the other. bur people/sheep still wonder how they did it and think they could do it too.

I did that too to a friend, unfortunately he just turn around after saying "okay". I even did a lot of example and showing it in our computer, but still, no good, I think it depends on the one you are talking with, sometimes people are not really interested, they just listen to what you want to say.

the first thing is you need to find the correct time to explained to them, i think the most effective way is give them the demo directly, like how my friend introduced to me, he used his bitcoin to exchange it to fiat and in that minute the fiat appear in his bank account, your friends and family will be interested if you got proof that it can be used as money

First is to have them get interested in bitcoin. How? Just show them proofs that bitcoin is a real money, My recommended  proof is receipts that you exchange your bitcoin to your local currency (If you ever have one) cause this works for me. 

After that, I'm sure they will ask you on how you obtain your bitcoins and more things about bitcoin itself, how it differs from fiat etc.

This will surely work if your main purpose is to share or for them to be aware of bitcoins existence.

We all have friends and family with different levels of understanding especially when it comes to technological advancements and explanations will certainly differ...like making them watch bitcoin explanatory youtube videos and the alike

Hahaha I know this feeling initially when I started explaining people just walked away. They even used to make jokes about me. Then I decided to wage a bet and told I would buy a x product within a certain time using only btc, and I successfully did. The technique my friend here is how can you make the other person visualise it. Try and link with his needs and you shall win. Do try it.

What works for me are the stuffs that I buy online. When people starts noticing that I'm getting packages in the mail more frequently, they started joining the bitcoin groups that I'm in on facebook. Making them interested in earning bitcoins will surely make them pay more attention to every single thing that you say about bitcoins.

We all have friends and family with different levels of understanding especially when it comes to technological advancements and explanations will certainly differ...like making them watch bitcoin explanatory youtube videos and the alike
I think guiding them yourself is far better than showing a Youtube video in front of them. They wouldn't appreciate that video, they can watch it any time they like. But you teaching them would be something they would appreciate, thus, making them pay attention to you (even if they aren't that interested).

Mostly family members have no idea what bitcoin and even if i explain to them that they will just reject my idea behind and they will take it as joke. So I will explain bitcoin only to my friends because they are tech sensitive and they Will understand the technology behind bitcoin nad already done are familiar with partial digital money like money which can be transferred online in paytm, mobikwik.

Well most of my family member are old and have no idea of digital money but i am sure if I make them understand then they will understand it better because they are not that fool and dumb that they couldn't understand this. Already my dad knows about digital money so bitcoin is almost similar to digital money he is using right now. So he would understand bitcoin better and I hope he will start using bitcoin very soon

Start with introduction of bitcoin like wise, bitcoin is a digital money in common language but generally it's a peer to peer money transfer system which completely relays on digital system like computer to mine and store. But it could be accessed through smartphone too and somewhere bitcoin ATMs are also setup to help those guys who don't have smartphone or laptop but have a bitcoin card. It is centralized money and no one controls it flow it is controlled by group of miners across the world

Well, My rule number one is to not tell that you are gambling on the net, it will not awake any positive reaction for sure.
To my parents and friends I tell like " I make money on the Internet. I am just commenting in english a thread and get some little payment on my online wallet." That's it. Usually it wakes up big interest, but when I point that everything is in English people just loose the interest, cause no one among my family or friends can speak or write it.

Introduced bitcoin firstly then show then path to earn then comes where to store. Discuss its secure , anonymity, and advantages they will definitely like the money because it's advantaged and modern form of money where there is no tax applicable which attacks more user for heavy transaction across multi nation.
