And then give them a tinfoil hat....

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

What's the most convincing information you have that doesn't sound as though it's just been pulled out of your ass?

It's the world's first digital cash, which allows people to send million of dollars worth of bitcoin to the other side of the planet instantaneously without having to open a bank account. This creates huge opportunities that will lead to greater adoption of it.

Hehe, you can even send bitcoin to non-earthly destinations, like Nirvana, if you like.

Sadly there is no killer feature in Bitcoin for average Joe. I would like to see a merchant that say : "Because of Bitcoins I'm saving on transaction cost. I give 1% rebate to every transaction made with Bitcoin."

Right now love it or not, it's a lot more simple to use Paypal.

Because of Bitcoin, I'm saving lots of money and headaches on each and every transaction. I won't sell for anything else at BitBrew and offer great prices for a premium product.

The one thing that has got everyone I've told so far:


"Bitcoins started out being worth 5 cents.  They are now at 10 dollars."

Watch their eyes get big.  Greed sells (and is also good, according to Gordon Gekko).
