My kids love bitcoin, they have had wallets for 3 years and have introduced the friends to the concept. They are all swapping bitcoin and exchanging things for it. It reminds me of the ted talk by andreas which i have posted below. " try explaining KYC to these kids when their 18", lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AVRVfw-8nEEdit: watch about 17:00 for exact quote.

Youtube is really the best when it comes to providing the best resource and materials for any explanation about anything,Bitcoin has thousands of videos explaining what is Bitcoin and how it functions,I think this is one of the most viewed videos on YOUTUBE.

This is interesting to hear. How old are your kids? How are they acquiring their bitcoin? Do you live in an area with many shops/stores accepting bitcoin?
I'm curious what kids are finding as the fascinating thing about it (not surprised, but interested in zeroing in a bit) and how they percieve the use of bitcoin. You mention "trading" - with kids this could be like trading baseball cards, something heavily driven by fad rather than an indicator of genuine adoption and growth.
In the end, hearing that younger folks are enthusiastic about bitcoin is a great sign for the growth of "the project".

Yeah, kids have a pretty good natural feeling about which things are good and which ones are useless. They are not yet indoctrinated by the state, that's why they don't understand how anyone in its right mind would think that KYC / AML are beneficial. What your kids are doing is natural business activity. It's engaging in a free market as it should be. It's a source of creativity and joy. That's Bitcoin. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ya.ya.yo!

But the comment specifically on the indoctrination of the state is actually a pretty good point you make, and I have to say it's definitely one of your better points. The choices of the kids doesn't necessarily represent the free market and how it engages, since they don't need to immediately provide for themselves, but it does go to show how marketing and complexity can interest kids.

Don't let them find out about gambling ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) I found out about bitcoin since I was 13 and it's the main thing I use/involve myself with online now but I discovered gambling a few months into my 'journey' and now I've lost too much to talk about lol But yeah it's cool to see other kids getting into btc.

You have a point and there would be still chances that they might get hooked into gambling because we all know playing it for the very first time is enjoyable and if they already know that bitcoin could be used to play those games then they will eventually try.Its not really bad at all but we should not tolerate them to do so because if they would play excessively then negative results will come next.Proper explanation to them about negative effects of gambling would help.

That is a fantastic idea teaching your kids as early as 13 earn bitcoins and exposed to cryptocurrency. But of course you will need to guide them in their bitcoin journey since gambling sites and porn sites are accepting bitcoins, your kids may access them and get addicted into it. Parental guidance is necessary never allow them to use bitcoin without your presence. Its good to teach kids how to earn but without placing their morals in jeopardy.

I myself have a wallet for a year only. how old are the kids anyway? and how do they earn bitcoin and spend it? or you just tell them about the concept? tell us more. I am interested because it is the firs time to hear kids know bitcoin for a long time enough.

This is a good thing and lucky you that introduced your kids to bitcoin years ago. I can conclude that your kids know many things about bitcoin and can troubleshoot with transaction/wallet issues because of the 3 year experience.

Kids are accepting new things much faster then adults. Knowledge about Bitcoin is good but they are not so experienced and rstional as adults so they have to be warned about danger too. Kids and teenagers are getting new infomations very quick and often parents can't control them anymore and they could get stuck on bad places like dark markets and similar.

Yeah, indeed we must be more correct in introducing bitcoin to kids. For as we now know it, many things can be obtained illegally or done in the bitcoin. And it could give a fairly risky effects for those who haven't been able to do something well, let alone the kids sometimes have the urge to want to know something new or not yet they know. So, if there are kids who already know better their escorting bitcoin compared to later get a problem

Since I am not that married yet, I will try to cover up that with my future kids. But it seems that everything that was being told in ted talk by Andreas are reality and it is now going to happen. He has the point that kids aren't allowed to use credit cards so they will try to use some other alternatives and bitcoin is the solution.

I agree. Kids love to learn new things in this world so that they can easily adapt to changes. Bitcoin is a new technology which is very interesting and useful. Many people are attracted by Bitcoin so there are not any reason for kids to hate it. Looking forward to seeing the future when your kids grow up, it will be very very awesome
