Saw it for the first time today and it is now my standard first reference to the question "but what exactly is Bitcoin?".  Sure it glosses over the details of some concepts but for the target audience it is well designed without descending into techno babble.

Good video. Exactly what I need for some of the older family members!  Smiley

When I talked about Bitcoin a couple of years ago no one was interested. Now some of them are coming back: "I remember you mentioned those Bitcoins some time ago. I have been reading about it recently, can you tell me more about it?"  Roll Eyes

I actually enjoy explaining Bitcoin to newbies, but sometimes it would just be easier to send a link. This one will be perfect!

That's very nice! I particularly like when he talks about a deflationary and wealthier monetary system.

As far as I am concerned, I still have the following as a reference for a simple way to explain what Bitcoin is to newbies: http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-explained-five-year-old/
