I know that it's very hard to explain for a beginner. Because when you search information about bitcoin and the result that you get is not enough.
So you can experience by join some websites to earn biticoin free, find websites to know about exchange rate of bitcoin

As mentioned many times in other threads on introducing bitcoin to a friend, a child and to anyone. - Never sugarcoat things, don't explain it as if bitcoin is a gold,instead, tell them the history, the ups and downs and how bitcoin survived stabbing that comes its way.

If it's not enough, just ask them to search bitcoin in the internet and let themselves learn about this.

To understand bitcoin better kindly give example of any commodity like as gold. You can even example with whole process of preparation of gold. Because while bitcoin generate it needs mining same as Original gold mined.

But its not manual process and this is the important key which have to introduce to new user about bitcoin. Bitcoin can be generated by mining with using computing power. Also don't forget to introduce features of bitcoins to new user to understand bitcoin in better way.

I know the new bitcoin about a year ago it was also the result of browsing in the google and search for info from the internet. Now that a lot of my friends who are interested in bitcoin because I've never buy credits and other needs without pay with cash, they ask what it is bitcoin? And how to obtain them?

For me I would rather explain it the simplest and shortest. Why? Listeners tend to get bored when the explanation is too long.
So just tell them what bitcoin is offering to them. Those features that will sound inviting in their ears.

Exactly, you have to find a concise way to simply and effectively explain to people what it is and what it's better than the current system, then surely they would find it tempting to look into it more themselves and maybe even start using it!

Explaining bitcoin to a newbie is not easy... You need a lot of patience in doing it... But to make it easy, I suggest that you just point them to this forum to know more about bitcoin or if they have internet, let them search bitcoin by their own in the internet and just tell them to ask you when they don't understand a thing specailly the tricky ones like the blockchain, sending money in and out and ways to earn it and of course, the exchanges/trading sites...

That could be possible if you point them here if the person is patient in reading. But in my experience none did pursue it when I go to that method. But some did when I explained it to them like "spoon feeding". I guess it will srill depend on the person if he or she will listen or not.

I agree, I think it's a large problem that we have, being able to convey the message of bitcoin in a way that everyone will understand. I think a good way might be to use a bitcoin wallet app as they'll most likely have a smartphone. Have them install the app which takes only but a minute, send them some btc from your smart phone, and explain it that way. It would take maybe what, 5 or so minutes?

[Digitalbitcoin]

I think this depends upon person to person as what basic knowledge particular person have. Because Bitcoin is not a thing which can be defined or described in 1 day or 1 hour. It need constant upgrade to new user about bitcoin and its environment. This knowledge can increase faith and belief in bitcoin which finally results in awareness.

As someone explained to me earlier it is an online currency, which is very easy to transfer from one point to another, without waiting for a lot of time for a person to receive money. Also you can use it to buy some things on internet, so you don`t need any credit cards, paypal and etc.

This is what i usually say "Bitcoin is a a fair and decentralized currency that is controlled my laws of math automatically and the rules are on the code of the program. New bitcoins are generated by anyone who has a computer or something to compute with (example asic's) no one can seize your funds as long as you have no one has the private key generated by your client. So basically it is just a system used for payments and cannot be really stopped as long as people are running nodes and mining the currency with their computing power. Everyone who is running a certain type of client (example bitcoin core) has all the transactions made since the beginning."

Seeing videos about bitcoin is the most effective way for me specially on complete newbie on bitcoin because videos does really explain precisely compared to us coz there are times that we cant explain it to them clearly which causes for them to refuse instead of being interested.If videos doesnt work then tend to show them on how do you use it.
