I just had an idea about how to explain bitcoin: A bitcoin is real estate on the most secure public ledger in the world. Bitcoins are similar to land in that that the total amount is fixed. How much real estate? 1/21 millionth.
 
If the blockchain was Manhattan Island, each bitcoin would be worth 44.8 square feet.

If the Blockchain was Texas, each bitcoin would be the equivalent of 8.2 acres.

If the blockchain was North America,each bitcoin would be worth 290.7 acres.

If the blockchain was the world, each bitcoin would be worth over 2.7 square miles.


Some land is barren and worthless, what about farmland?

There are 3.4 Billion Hectares of farm land globally (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/12/1209_051209_crops_map.html)

Avg price of farm land per hectare across the globe. $6,790.62 (#’s based on http://www.businessinsider.com/booming-farmland-market-2011-4?op=1 Sampling price per hectare in Russia, Canada, US, Brazil, New Zealand, Zambia, Ukraine, Romania, Poland, Australia, Argentina, England.

Market cap of farm land ~$23 Trillion. 3.4 Billion hectares * $6,790.62 = $23,088,108,000,000

1 BTC out of 21 million as a ratio = 0.0000000476 $23,088,108,000,000 * 0.0000000476 = $1,099,433.71

So one bitcoin is a million dollars! On sale today for only 250!

no, that would be like buying real estate in a remote unpopulated and uninhabitable areas now with promise that one day it will be valuable.  

hence land on the moon. I find it appropriate in many ways.

Can I at least get the side of tragedy while I am waiting?

I get crabby if my DOOOOOM is not shnappy.

What kind of place is this? keeping a guy waiting for his DOOOOOOM.

That is a very good analogy, except that there is no real land. 

A bitcoin is a bearer certificate of property of some fixed number of square miles of real estate on Tatooine.  Other altcoins are certificates of real estate on other imaginary planets.

The value of bitcoins is supposed to come from its hard-to-forge public land registry, where record of possession of one of those imaginary plots can be easily transferred to another person only with knowledge of the private key of its current possessor, without the need for a trusted intermediary etc.

Western exchanges seem willing to crash again, but China not yet. Interesting, if the opportunity to crash will be missed, we may go up.
