The ‘Bitcoin Family’ One Year Later

[PhilPrime]

A year ago today, my family was featured in a Motherboard Vice article called “Meet the ‘Bitcoin Family.’” Since that time, my two sons have learned a whole lot more about Bitcoin and are fascinated by their father’s work as a cryptocurrency journalist.

Learning About The Tools of Liberty at a Very Young Age

My son Joshua is now seven, and Franklin is three, and we often discuss the Bitcoin industry that surrounds my life. As a journalist and graphic artist, our family has lived off the Bitcoin economy for close to two years now.

You make a discussion about a Bitcoin industry with a seven and three years old boy? Are you sure about that?
Can they understand what you're talking about? Because you said that you introduced Bitcoin to them a year ago, which means when Joshua was seven and Franklin was two.

hahaha. you nailed it! i think kids don't understand bitcoin and they will never interested on it because playing and have fun is their main goal. I think the site is
just using a hyperbolic word to attract people. And i don't care about teaching bitcoin on kid because it is nonsense. Bitcoin family is not an ideal family. It will makes greediness
to the family because of teaching money at young age.

This is novel, but it sort of reminds me of  that guy who tried living solely from things he ordered off the internet, not leaving his house for a year, or the other person who webcammed every room in his house...novel, but really proves little.

I read the whole article. For me it was nice that your children are learning those things with your guidance. Honestly, I think they have more knowledge than me with those bitcoin wallets like Trezor. It is a good thing that there is someone who can guide them and prepare them for their future and give them an idea on how the future of technology might be especially how cryptocurrency works. But of course, I do hope that your children are still enjoying their childhood and not just focusing on technologies. They are still young and they deserve to enjoy life, to be happy, to play, just like other kids out there.

We are in the information age now so teaching children bitcoin at an early age is good so that they can be aware of the new technology. Being aware of what their father does for a living makes them think of how hard or simple they can earn money or bitcoin. I think they are more informed than me regarding crypto currencies and I'm happy to know that there is someone earning bitcoin for a living as his main bread and butter and not just a sideline.

If young people turn to bitcoin now in less than five years we are going to see fireworks. They are the key for mass adoption. I don't spend anymore time explaining how bitcoin works to people older than 40. They will be forced to adapt one day. But our youngsters need to know sooner than later what a great thing bitcoin is.

I am very happy for your kids

Good, let's just hope that in the future Bitcoin is used by every single person on earth. Right now, old people will never understand bitcoin and they are far from ever using it. The transition will take at least 20 years. By then 1 Bitcoin should be around 500k per coin since 5% of assets will have moved there. Young people holding BTC today will be rich as fuck.

it is good story , really nice . now young generation in to the digital world , definitely next generation will be digital crypto based currencies only. your kids are doing great. it will be motivation for the next generation kids also.I belive future of bitcoin is good and price will rise high.

Interesting how one whole family is earning bitcoins and live from them. Like most of people here I agree that youngsters and new generations are the key forbbitcoin success. They are much more involved in internet then old people.
I didn't saw in article how much they earned in one year, enough for make a living with that money apparently. I don't have kids yet, but one day I will follow this man steps, and probably I will teach them about all this in young age. My girlfriend is already earning coins and trade a bit, I made a first step.

I'm glad to see that there are younger people getting interested with Bitcoin and it isn't all just a 20+ club, although it can seem like that some times. I'm glad to see everything is going so well, and I hope everything continues to go well for you. Keep it up and never stop teaching your kids!

haha. I think his sons are the younger ones who know about bitcoin. the thing is, do they already know how to earn bitcoin? or you just discuss about it with them?

it's okay. introducing them about bitcoin is also good.

Well it proves that it can be done, to me this proves that early economic education it is possible and in fact should be encouraged. As an example in my whole life I did not receive any kind of economic education I needed to find the answers by myself, so when I have kids I will make sure to teach them from an early age how the system works and the pitfalls they should avoid.

Your two sons are three and seven years old and they know about bitcoin?

I don`t believe that.

How often do you discuss bitcoin with them?

[mkc]

This is a nice and touchy story, although I think you may want to remove pictures of your little ones from internet.
You probably is hard core Bitcoin lovers, and so are your children.
Keep up the good work.

[amiryaqot]

Well, that is an interesting story while you're making grow a BTCitcoin surely these steps would be helpful for them, this would be encouraging for other parents to tell about this innovation to their children by using different methods which will make their children to learn more about BTCitcoin.

why you wouldnt believe in it? it is just ordinary money why they cannot know about it then? it is also really easy to use

[hasiramasenju]

that was good story and i had always be so glad if any people could took their contribute for development of cryptocurrency world especially for bitcoin because that will makes bitcoin will more popular in the future and i think bitcoin really need more people such as you

[swscowods]

This is a very interesting story. I would love to have tried this when bitcoin had barely started. I think in the future there will be more families willing to completely convert to bitcoin and feel safe in doing so. We are living in a world that is advancing so much it is amazing!

Why is is that when I think of me and my family talking about it sounds awkward to me. Maybe it is because I cant really share it yet I dont know if they will really agree. Well thenm thumbs up to you.

I don't think there is anything wrong in telling your family, in fact when I told my family they were very much excited that I am using this innovative currency and also earning it when no one else is aware about it yet.

Pretty interesting article. I like your kid's idea of giving out bitcoin instead of candy for Halloween, lol. That would be awesome. From the sound of it, your kids know a lot more about bitcoin than many. I'm pretty sure when I was 7 years old, all I cared about was watching cartoons and riding my bike.
