bitcoin is a complicated algorithm and children or a teenager tend to not like things complicated, if you continue to impose complicated things that will make him confused and will probably end up hating or trauma

The simple way is we recommend through the game, many game related bitcoin, when they already collect bitcoin then we have made the wallet, then we recommend and inform the exchange site. In a small way it slowly they will know bitcoin.

Faucet is good for kids as they have a lot of time to burn and it's a good start to earn, they have not tried earning before but with bitcoin by only playing in their computer they can earn and that is productive I guess.

My question since this post has been out, is how many people teach their kids about bitcoin?  If a child has an extra 2 hours to play on this  per week for 10 years, they have the ability to earn about $600 per year with bitcoin.  I think they should all be told about it.

98% of the children don’t know about bitcoin in your country, I am sure 99% of the whole population in my country don't know anything about bitcoin despite the fact there has been talk of it in television  especially in those dedicated to the economy.

The Children are the least priority to educate because there are still matured people who does not even understand the basic of bitcoin, we can attract them if we carefully explain to them and answers all their questions. Kids cannot comprehend easily, so they have to reach at the right age, there's time for everything and bitcoin is bound to exist longer.

That's okay, because as you've mention, even adults don't know what bitcoin is in where you are. But anyway, teenagers are easier to teach about bitcoin compared to old people. Old people tends to refuse anything that are alien to them. Teenager, with a simple explanation, they easily gets it and they are open minded. A simple question and answer about bitcoin, could be the best way to teach teenagers about bitcoin.

Bitcoin is difficult to explain. I also felt difficulties in understanding bitcoin for the firs time. Let's share how to explain bitcoin to children of teenagers. In My country I can say 98% children don't know bitcoin. In fact, bitcoin can be future money. If the children not familiar with cryptocurrency or bitcoin, how can they face the digital era in the future.

Nowadays, most countries for sure the average percentage of bitcoin in the teenagers are 99% lack of knowledge in bitcoin. If for the adults have difficulties in understanding in bitcoin how much more in  the teenager levels. For me bitcoin is only for those people who are really open minded in this type of source of income or opportunity to anyone, meaning we don't need to rush the teenager's/children's about this thing.

I've learned in my time for myself one truth - who has the information, he is rich, so when you know what that way of earning - earning himself the real methods and techniques do not tell all, but with the children at the right time you need to share.

There is no truth in that .The people who got rich are the ones who entered bitcoin when it was in its infancy and they earned a pretty good amount of coins by mining with their laptops or home pcs but to make some money right now it is not that simple even if you every information about bitcoin ,just consider investing in bitcoin if you have any plans to make money out of it.

For an adult it's understandable and accessible, and the child will be difficult. Of course it all depends on the age. For their first feature and the problem is restlessness.

Kids nowadays are very smart enough because of technology and I guess they are smarter than us, adults. Just simply tell them that bitcoin is good for buying their favorite sweets in their favorite sweet shops. But they need to work for it, like explaining the simplest way of getting bitcoin which is faucets, that's a good way to help to start.

Kids were very smart in technology, but we need to segregate and teach them about advancements. If kids were taught about it, soon they would learn and start using. The drawback is that the children mind gets fixed to digitalization but never have focus on other activities.

I think you dont need to explain bitcoin in children because there are so young ang they cant really understand what are you trying to say specially in teenagers because teenagers nowadays would rather hang out with their friends so i think you dont need to explain bitcoin to them.

Of course it is quite a waste of time. It did not come a time when children need to talk about bitcoin. Although if the school in class will talk or mention it, that such an approach is more appropriate.

yes that is a fact still it is not time to explain bitcoin to children because bitcoin is still not popular as currency, currently bitcoin is uses as investment therefore there is no need to explain bitcoin to children.

Children may need time to teach, as they learn to use paper money. Young people are not the same, and their ability to understand is strong, contact the Internet era, through online video tutorials will know bitcoin.

Nowadays, most countries for sure the average percentage of bitcoin in the teenagers are 99% lack of knowledge in bitcoin.

Well if we're going to do speculation in statistics I'd say that even 99% of the adults lack knowledge about bitcoin. Literally 99.99% of the whole world lacks knowledge about bitcoin. We might not even a million in population and there's 7 billion people out there.

If for the adults have difficulties in understanding in bitcoin how much more in  the teenager levels.

Adults would think they don't have the time and they're too busy to learn things about bitcoin. Remember that you have to study and read a lot of articles first when you were starting out in bitcoins.

I think teenagers have more time and they are the ones that really wants to earn money especially online. Adults already have a source of income and so they don't think it's actually necessary for them to learn bitcoins.

After reading this I tried to explain what is BTC to my little nephew who knows what is money and it didn't take much time for him to understand the basic of the BTC concept. I don't he understood perfectly but lastly he said: "It's an invisible money which we can spend on robots." 

Nice talking with your nephew! and kids this days had an odd and creative mind this days and I think by means of a robots is the machine that you can exchange or make a payment with bitcoin, as I have said in my other post that children this days have an excellent understanding now than before and because of the evolving world we are right now and technology that we are in, I think that more younger kids can surely easily learn fast.

True. The kids these days are very fast in learning these things compared to our generation. These days kids of age 4-5 already have facebook and twitter account and start posting things which we didn't do till we get into college... 
I think its pretty easy nowadays to teach new stuff to kids.

You can use the computer to explain everything to a child. Always if he/she can understand before what is the real money. If yes then you can show him how to send bitcoin in several places. That's all. What else needed to explain except that is money and in which can be used?

Generations now are changing and kids learning are really advance these days now, and in our country the quality of education have been exceed than the usual with the past educational system that is why I think kids now can understand every thing they would see on the internet, television, and things they see at school and because of the exceeding technology that we have people are now adapting to the environment as well no wonder if a child would just learn bitcoin from these things.

There are only specific technology where kids are being smart, these are the gadgets where they are always exposed.   There are things that are complicated that kids are unable to understand.  One of excample is, kids maybe well verse in using PC or smartphones, but if it gets broken, they are unable to fix it.  Same goes with bitcoin.  Bitcoin in my  opinion is too complicated for kids to learn.  They may know the usage but the economics of it is very complex for them to understand.  I would suggest that let them continue their normal activities and focus on study.  Explaining bitcoin to them should be limited to usage just as we explained about fiat money.

Best way of explaining is using the gold analogy.


But I think explaining it to a person in his/her early teens will be quite diffiicult. Best to wait till the person reaches late teens and then explain

Yes, I agree from what you have said. We should wait the right time when we should introduce bitcoin to someone. Most of the teenagers or children are not yet that business minded or have a mindset to earn money, because in that age, children or teens just want to enjoy their life, easy go lucky something like that. Like what you have said, the right time to introduce bitcoin to them is in their late teens because they are matured enough in late teens age.

Percentage it Depending with technology & education degree of childrens about they knowing bitcoin. If the children was habitual playing a computer or understand it maybe you will easier to explain them about bitcoin with computer.
And better you don't rushed to explain them to send or receive bitcoin. You need to tell what is bitcoin generally with easy words that the children can understand.

True,children with exposure to technology like computers and mobiles will surely got about bitcoin easily depending on the approach or explaining precisely on a child.As you mentioned we shouldnt rushed on explaining because their young minds cant able to comprehend enough if we explain it complicatedly.

We don't have to tell exactly what bitcoin is because I think they would just get confused, if I am about to explain it to my child I would simply said that bitcoin is just like money the difference is we get bitcoin thru online.
