You have made a lot of money, because their money can be reduced. And you may even blame. so you should well explain the Bitcoin they have to enlighten them if the bitcoins have fallen. Teach them when they are holding and left many years may be double or triple its value.A good example is the display of videos, pictures of creatures because of bitcoins. In this way they can make sense of what bitcoins can do in their lives.

If this is such a big barriers then they probably are losers that won't get anything from live if they don't change, and probably would lose their BTC to scams or hacks or because they panic sold at the wrong time, so they wouldn't make difference in the end.

Something physical is not the mental approach you should be having towards cryptocurency.

What are your goals? Are you planning to buy hefty amounts, or just a few bucks' worth?
If you are looking to invest heavily, I would buy something like a TREZOR (a hardware wallet) which will keep your coins more secure. This WILL set you back over $100, so make sure it's worth it.
Otherwise, just use a lightweight wallet you trust. Electrum is a fairly good one IMHO.

Buying bitcoin can be as easy as dealing with a human being through a platform like localbitcoins, or as "complicated" as registering on an exchange that provides FIAT services, follow all KYC procedures, send a bank transfer, and buy coins from the exchange.

If you _do_ follow this path, do not store your coins on the exchange for the long-term. Always use a wallet that you can control, always encrypt your wallet, and always keep a physical handwritten copy of your recovery or private key. in a safe.

It's not rocket science, but you need to read around a bit, and try things out. practice makes perfect. don't practice on 15 grand at a time.

You would really be blamed if prices would go fall and they saw that they are losing money and as you said we should really tell them the aspects of bitcoins price on how does it move and its risk involve.Its just a basic thing actually and then later on explain to them the usage when it comes to payment.There are lots of wallets its either on online or offline but since you do ask on physical then you can make use on hardware wallets like trezor or ledger but quiet hassle when you do make active transactions.

You can go to an exchanger who is willing to sell bitcoin with fiat, I think triv is a good choice. then if you've got bitcoin at the right price you can keep it in blockchin or something else.

That's one possible way and other than that localbitcoins seems to be the best way to buy and store bitcoin in a much secure manner. More we enable the security features more will be the secure holding of bitcoin. Now Eth too has been added to the list supporting traders into active participation of different digital currency storing and trading.

I believe is the super long serial number + alphabet that makes them confusing, how can an asset looks like this?
the authentication and super long passcode of the address also the pain
they do not know how to remember or store the passcode

yes, this is one of their concern
as there is no to the price fluctuation, they require a more normal-user-friendly mechanism or platform to buy and sell
imagine you have to transfer your bitcoin from wallet to the exchange, then trade at the exchange, it is just too slow and it is so dangerous if we store our bitcoin in those exchange platforms, let alone the complicated authentication process and password

the purpose of doing this investment is not for the losing money,so we are still looking some easy way
something physical, like mobile credit reload card

If you want to have bitcoin, I suggest you to visit the official exchangers who accept the exchange of rupiah into bitcoin. you should have a bitcoin wallet / wallet first, though not very necessary, but to keep your bitcoin in the long run, it's safer if you have a private wallet instead of using the wallet provided by the exchanger service.

Yes there are many easy ways to buy and store bitcoin for you.One of the best example is Coinbase and Coins.ph(Philippines only). These two online wallet platform gives every individual an easy ways to top up bitcoin by making bank deposit direct to your wallet with secured blockchain hash , cashing in  and cashing out thru different remittance centers (Philippines only).
