How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children

[uztre29]

Start by defining what bitcoin really is, how it started, and when it started. Some people think that bitcoin is not real so you can show examples that may let them realize that it is real. One great example is to show your income. Money will attract them. You can also teach them what you are doing in order for them to understand the nature of bitcoin well. But I guess this will only work for teenagers. Children doesn't think much of the money so it will be that hard to explain it to them.

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.

First of all they are children, give them time to first be literate in languages which is the basic step. It will be easy after that. I am trying to teach my 12 years old sister about bitcoin in summer, to avoid interfering this lesson in her classes. Yet she is starting to learn step by step about what is bitcoin, what is it for.
They will learn about it gradually. Everyone has to adapt.

I agree with you because I find hard time explaining how bitcoin works and how to earn money from it.Maybe we can explain to children what Bitcoin is thoroughly if it is implemented to be one of the under-subject of the Economics that is being thought to the schools and universities all over the world.Maybe on that way we can explain it to children and teenagers what and how really the Bitcoin works and let them know that Bitcoin is the future.

If a teenager understands that a bank keeps track of every payment and movement of money, they can understand bitcoin.  Bitcoin takes the responsibility away from the banks to keep track of the ledger (removes the middle man), so that people can transfer money directly between each other

Your idea is much confusing and children would not get interested with bitcoin.  Just a simple explanation like, do you want to have a bike? We can buy you one because of bitcoin.  Then just let them explore and say something or explain if they ask questions.  Just tell them that bitcoin equals money.

Always is the best way to show the videos. Even for adults BTC is hard to explain without any presentation or video. So the best way as it was always, is to show any pictures or videos with good explanation. Because btc is not just like real money, it's another structure what is only similar as fiat money.

It is difficult to explain especially to children and minor ages. And they are teen agers because they are only at the pleasure stage. And just games.

This is what you can do for them to convience with bitcoins. Let's just try to show that they can buy gadgets etc or whatever material they want and that it can get them with bitcoins teach them to earn faucets and investment trading and other payday loans then many They have learned that you can teach them in the forum where they can use all they have learned in investment and trading what else.

They seem to be studying here and have just finished earning money.

And what's the motive of teaching children? Teenagers are still considerable, children who make money too soon tend to loose some other things, I.e proper attention to studies, sense of money management and much more. I would like to teach someone who needs it and would be matured with it.

You can really explain it to some teenagers because they are one of the most easiest generation to be teached about currency.But for the children,I think it would be not so good to explain it to them because what matters to them are usually childish things like playing and money or currency isnt actually their priority.

Indeed. Bitcoin is very difficult to explain. Its very hard to explain to a children because they are lack of knowledge about business and trading. In addition to that, if you explain it to a teenager I think they will get interested because some of teenager want to gain income and money.

teenagers won't care about how to make money mostly. so i think it won't work smoothly . better to lure them with something like buying game easily without have to create bank account or provide your id , it's fully have an easy access and then everything would went smooth . and they might would start to looking for how to earn it by themselves .

I think the best way to explain to teenagers or children is call them and talk personally so that they understand well about bitcoin. Let us show to them that we are a good example that has already invest in bitcoin. Maybe they convince also and wants to know bitcoin. I will teach them always because i believe children  are became interested in bitcoin. Its nice to explain in children even if in their young age because they can easily learn.

- I think children and teenagers will not be too concerned about Bitcoin, they have so many things to do in life as fun, study, sleep, ... they will not waste their time to earn bitcoin, that is not necessary to them. But if we really want to explain to them, we can start with their hobbies and what they want, then lead them to earn bitcoin, bitcoin can do what they want.

Yes that too might be a way to explain teenagers about bitcoin as well the good about the digital assets. People need to have trust only then the usage will be effective. Secondly as stated through hobbies it can be explained, particularly can be motivated to collect all the digital currency and assets available as a hobby.

i used to explain bitcoin to my friends, i found its so hard, too many technical terms, maybe the best way is to tell him to buy some, then he will learn himself

[Legend1123]

I think it'll be really hard to explain for other people about bitcoin yourself so just let them find information about bitcoin on the internet. There are a lot of articles on the internet explain about bitcoin and everyone can easily find it on google or wikipedia

Bitcoin can be difficult to explain but so can money and what teenager really knows how that works, hell most people don't know how money really works.
I think a teenager would probably be the easiest generation to teach bitcoin to, you don't need to teach them the whole in's and out's just a bit about public/private key pairs, sending/receiving addresses and secure coin holding and they will pick up the rest very quickly.

It could be difficult to explain at first but if you are going to take time and you will do your best to give them information they must have they could actually learn if more faster than we could actually learn it. The first reason is bitcoin is a form of currency that is much more aligned to technology in when we will say technology it is much more on a 21st century thing that most of teenagers and children does have on adopting to changes and development of technology based thing just like bitcoin as a form of currency in a much more faster and reliable way.

It's hard to explain bitcoin to the environment like teenagers and children,
because Bitcoin is not money in a country and few people know about bitcoin
