How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children

[car01ine]

I don't see any reason to explain bitcoin to children let them discover it and by that they can decide whether to believe it or not.

In my own opinion, Its not necessary for us to explain to children how to bitcoin works because their minds are still innocent but on teenagers yes it was better to teach them because some of them has already the mindset to get rich or to earn more money in the future.

Children could understand you as long as they are smart and they have an interest in technology or economics, if they do not have any of those leanings you are better off not teaching them about bitcoin until they are older, but at the same time bitcoin is going to become an important part of their lives so they need to know about bitcoin.

Yeah I know that it's very hard to explain to people about bitcoin since this kind of money is commonly known on DeepWeb that's why its hard. Even I think that bitcoin was an illegal money online. But what makes me interest to it was its price which is high for each bitcoin and on that way you can explain it to others. Just tell them how much a bitcoin cost then you will get his/her attention to it.

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 ,it is so hard to explain to them especially if they are not interested to waste just like 2-4hours a day spending time to bitcoin .
But its easy to explain if the teenagers are openminded with business and money and they know how value each money that goes on their hands

It is very difficult to explain the childrens in there mind only is playing and they are not interested because they think only wasting time to them,but if you tell them slowly and explain them properly and spend a little time in study bitcoin and show them that there is a big benefits if you do bitcoin that strategy they will be interested,and teenagers is very easy to explain because teenagers are openminded and they want money if you introduced bitcoin to them that bitcoin can help them to get what they want and can earn money with it they will be interested and they will start research about it.

I myself do not quite understand bitcoin, so I understand that many teenagers and children can not really get a concept. And indeed, bitcoin can be the currency of the future

Bitcoins can be complex to explain, use them in terms of asset. Things like gold are an investment and so are Bitcoins, you can use assets as reference.

Explaining bitcoin to teenagers or children is really hard for me because I am too teenager and I feel that it is hard to explain for them. We all know that people believes in a specific thing when the facilitator is ahead from them. But I will try my best to understand those teenager or children what really bitcoin is by means of showing a short video that shows the advantages, disadvantages,benefits and other thing about bitcoin to really understand what bitcoin is all about.Also, I will show an evidence and proof to convince them to believe in bitcoin.

You need to explain the value of bitcoin. How it helps your daily life and improve your financial condition.

[haster100]

I think that we can start explaining bitcoin by telling them that bitcoin is similar to other international currencies, dollars, euros and many others. They will understand, and you will tell more about bitcoin.

It will be much easier to explain to them if they are interested already to earn money. If their mind is not mature enough to be a responsible individual I doubt it will be easy to explain and if it will be worth it. But maybe if you tell the story how you become successful, they will have the interested and follow the path you've taken.

Perhaps teenagers or children is still not the proper age to let them decide for money. Maybe you can just be general and say it is for investment.

I think so, but now the COINS I was not able to accurately explain to the children, I can only tell them that this is a kind of electronic currency, in the near future, could replace our current currency

[bramgg.crypto]

I think with the current rate of tech adoption by kids, wait a couple of years and they will explain it to us

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.

for me i think we dont need to explain bitcoin to children or teen ager.what we need to explain to them is what bitcoin can give and what helps to us.they dont need to be expose in a younger mind how risky bitcoin or crypto in terms of money making.

What is better to tell them that block chain is one thing that can give them profit.but when their mind is ready for this community.

it may be difficult for children to understand. I personally if being a child will be difficult to understand because all I understand is cash currency only. little children just look and use on being touched instead of bitcoin that can not be touched or used in real life. I'm just going to tell teenagers and little kids you'll know bitcoin in the right time and right situation

Teenagers always attracted toward high price and they always want to earn money quickly so you can tell them about bitcoin and tell than various method of earning profit from it, like trading, signature campaigns, ( stay away from gambling because they can get addiction from it, also it is harmful financially).
for children i don't think children needs to learn about bitcoin at their initial stages because it will effect their study.

[longskie0327]

You can explain bitcoin in a simply way you understand it.. it's like a starter kit basic introduction, though you can't explain the whole process but you can somehow introduce it in simply and creative way you can kids now a days are smart they can follow and understand easily and the rest leave it to the experts let them do it in your behalf.

This can be very difficult because young people and kids are not interested in the crypto market because they find the crypto market too bulky for them.

I don't think so.
In fact, I really think that teenagers or children can understand Bitcoin much better than older generation.
They are born in digital age, with Internet and they are very open for the new technologies, ideas and projects.
Also, they learn much faster than elderly people and I really don't think they will need much explanation about Bitcoin.
As soon as they see benefits of Bitcoin, they will adapt it.
I don't worry about this point at all. 

I agree. How is it any harder to explain than a credit card transaction? How can you explain that you are spending money you actually don't have and are borrowing from a bank. Same with cash. Isn't it just paper? You can explain currency on a basic level without getting into the technical details of how it works. If you do go that deep in the discussion, then yes, they will understand it better than the average 50 year-old.

I completely agree with your statement that being a newbie u felt problem when you come to know about bitcoin because in ur childhood You were not taught about BTC and it is very necessary to teach children about BTC because BTC is the future money and children also are the future of the planet so both the things should go parallel otherwise nature would be disturbed , so BTC should be introduced as a subject in school life, so that they must be prepared for the future.
