I always thought that explain bitcoin to anyone is easy, such as money (digital currency) they will understand.
But it may not works for them, I mean they could be not interested to bitcoin as there is possibility of scam.
I already tried explain about bitcoin to my brother, but he seems doesn't think it really matter to his life, lol. I could understand what he's thought.

My parents are simply not interested in knowing or using bitcoins as they are not internet savvy and prefer to stay away from it and they even don't prefer to use credit cards for online shopping as they have fear that it can hack their details so its very hard to convince them for bitcoins but its not too difficult to explain it to friends.

just like my parents. they are not so interested in internet, so is bitcoin, but my mother is just interested in calling me via social media. so I also find it difficult to explain it to them. probably if I told my mother that I got money from internet, she would ask me to stop from it.

however, I have ever explained general information about bitcoin to my friends, but it was confused for them. so I didn't keep explaining it.

It is a thread that simply talk about how you look sane to people who dont understand crytocurrency. For the past 6 months have not being able to convince any of my freinds and family to join me on this platform like my friend did. Some think bitcoin as a topic is too abstract to give it time. As much as I know cant be taught in a day. A lot of reading has gone into this and my small research and notes. The sad part was my explaination to computer graduates that are my friend, The neglect on it was stunning. But I i know what will bring the interest is the fiat, while spending. Let them see me buy what they cant buy, they will beg to know and the interest will help them.

At first it was a challenge for me to make my family believe on bitcoin.  they are telling me about bitcoin not true and just a matter of time before it is forgotten.  But then I just keep my quiet and prove to them by giving them results about my bitcoin ventures.  And now they believe in bitcoin and that it is a great help to people who wanted to have income thru trading or give extra job to those who are looking for it.  So I think you need time to prove to people and make them understand bitcoin.

The scammers let an bad reputation, when you talk about bitcoin with someone, the first thing that they said is about "cloudmining" aka ponzi schemes or hack on exchanges so it's a bit hard to explain how secure is bitcoin also a lot of people don't have time to come here and learn more about bitcoin...

reading and regularly research for a new alt can be more profitable in the sense of convincing our friends to get involved allowing them to understand the profitable gain coming from this new investment.

there are two completely different approach that normally people take. one of them is talking about bitcoin as it really is and is meant to be meaning a currency which is decentralized and good to use.

and the other is a method of earning money, through any ways the person knows himself, it can be signature campaign, or trading or even offering services.

i prefer the first approach but i can't say which one is right and which one is wrong!

That's why you should be more understand about bitcoin aspects, I personally have almost same problem. The best to explain is learning by doing, need more practice so your friends/family know clearly what bitcoin, how it's work.

I have successful to involved my friends to join bitcoin party, and they are mostly computer enthusiasts which basically know how computer works. I do a practice to explain it, so they easily to understand the aspects.

I think my family is not interested especialy my parents. They're very not a fan of new technology.
So might switch point of your narration when explaining purpose of bitcoin to people like your parents. I talked with people who don't trust new tech a lot.
When I try to convince them about usefulness of bitcoin I usually start with debunking some myths about FIAT and standard bank systems.
Tell them that current economic system is all smoke and mirrors and even small fracture can create crisis larger than the one in 2008.
In short bitcoin might be more real that money your parents deposited in your local bank.

Digital currency was really hard to understand at first. You have to learn all the aspects in digital currency especially in bitcoins. Before using it, you have to know it very well. That's why when my friends ask me what is bitcoins and what is the use of bitcoins, i am starting to share my knowledge in bitcoins from basic and origin of bitcoins. I also teach them where to get free bitcoins and safe investment site. I am happy to teach and educste people about bitcoins.

To have computer enthusiasts interested in blockchain technology in my country is rare.Most especially with the concept of bitcoin in just 8 years of existence. Most of my friends certificates are older than the technology itself. I was thinking of referring the computer enthusaists to bitcoin technology course on cousera online lecture but the lecture never start since the advertisement of the course in more than 4 months now.

Give them a small amount of Bitcoin so that they can experience it first-hand.

If we introduce through this forum, not sure they had time and know fast. First time I know this forum is also confused. The best way is by telling them to create a wallet, then we give money to buy bitcoin on exchanger. After that, we beg to find out some of the sites of the bitcoin faucet, a month later instructed to exchange bitcoin to their bank account.
