Most of the common people think that bitcoin is used only by hackers and criminals,even one of my friend said that it is used by hackers when I am telling about crypto currency to him.Later I explained what is bitcoin and other crypto currencies but still he confused,he can only get what is bitcoin when he research about himself.

In this situation how can we explain that what is real bitcoin?

Why do we always need to explain? Let them believe what they want to believe in! If they say that Bitcoin is a scwm, so be it! It's their lost not ours. Don't waste your time on such people. They are saying those things because they either don't have money to invest or they are not interested on it.

Many people think for that thing they said that bitcoin is a scam but i told to them that bitcoin is legit not scam . Many are open minded they are not welling to search about bitcoin before they can say that bitcoin is scam.

Okay... Will your freind stop use dollars because drug dealers and criminals use it? But dollar isn't illigal and bitcoin too.
I will definitely argue with that person but in a nice way. I won't let those kind of person to do say such things in a system that is giving me profit. Well honestly bitcoin can be really used in those kinds of activity but we're doing our best to prevent that. Just in case that bitcoin is already being used in that then don't generalize all users.

Actually we don't need to explain often what bitcoin really is. Let them see what they need to know and let bitcoin speaks for itself. Just in case there are any questions then let's answer it honestly. People tends to believe what they see so I think whoever say that bitcoin is illegal haven't experience it yet. Bitcoin is a good system so let them say what they want.

I try to teach him actually by asking a few questions. One of my friends asked me that why you support bitcoins which is bad and which is using in the darknet! I relied upon that Not only bitcoin But also every coin, Every kind of money is using by the criminals. So, why you don't blame those money? Here it is not a fault of the bitcoin, It's criminal! Criminals, Who are not a real human being.

I educate people who don't know what cryptocurrency is and alwasy tag it negative. By showing them prove with my account and convincing them, some come to understand it.

bitcoin is a digital currency that uses blockchain and is not easily hacked because having it allowed is not using real names, so it's very hard to crack and all transactions are recorded in the ledger in blockchain.

Explain to them that Bitcoin is not illegal and is just a different way of doing trade using new technology, just as Visa/Mastercard changed banking and the way we spend when they were launched.

I would definitely stand up for bitcoin! I personally experience what bitcoin really is! It is a legal virtual currency better known as cryptocurrency. Actual, most of the people I personally know, they think of bitcoin as some sort of ponzi scam. I am the one who's explaining to them what bitcoin really is.

I myself often experience this kind of events, especially in my country, they always think that bitcoin currency used by hackers, criminals, or even money launderers, it is difficult indeed to give this understanding to those who do not learninys just read the information alone, how I react to it? I just give a little understanding of the problem he received it or not it's his business

Are there people still saying that?

Well, i would probably say nothing and leave. Don't like to talk with ignorant people.

Yes, there are still people saying that like for example some of my co workers I tried to invite them to invest in Bitcoin but because they've seen news about Bitcoin that was being used to scan people in our Country they easily turned down me in investing Bitcoin because of that news. Well I just showed them my income in the previous year to give them proof that Bitcoin is not a scammed but an opportunity to change someone's life.

Well, if a person is really confused about the legal status then it is worth it to spend some time and explain it to him about the current legal scenario regarding the crypto industry. However, if the person is criticizing crypto just for the sake of opposing it then it doesn't make any sense to waste our time for the people who don't have the mindset to listen and understand what this thing is all about and how it works.

The best thing we can do to convince the people about bitcoin is show your earnings from bitcoin,from this most of the people understand this is not scam.But if they say that is only used by the hackers,yes they may use it because they know what the bitcoin is capable of so why we are not using it even the most intelligent using people using them.

I've had such encounter several times but my reaction actually depends on who said that and my relationship with that person. If I realize the person has taken his stands and not up for explanations, I ignore him. However, I take my time to educate those who are ready to learn about bitcoin to clear their perceptions. Some of them through that are into bitcoin now.

The best way to explain bitcoin to someone who has no knowledge about cryptocurrency is by starting with digital currency. Explain what digital currency is and the features of digital currency to them. Once the person gets the whole concept of digital currency, you can now introduce cryptocurrency and blockchain technology and the decentralized nature of cryptocurrency.

nothingly surprising because i know im also into this bitcoin world, im a bounty hunter and had a chance to have even few amount of bitcoin, and i can say its not illegal, im paying attrntion on my campaigns and have a hardwork to it thus they just say to me its illegal? maybe they are saying bitcoin is illegal if they are scammed, the money they invest on it is scammed by someone.

Say what you want to say its your decision i can't blame you for that because you dont experience it and you really don't know what really is bitcoin, i think that's what i say if i encounter someone who don't believe in bitcoin and when they say its a illegal things.. I just tell the truth about bitcoin i will explain to them until i can , i just do my very best to explain to them, thats what i think. Just explain, its their decision if they're don't believe.

Now a days, some countries are using this bitcoin for illegal activity such as scamming people from creating a pool in a community, using bitcoin to deal with evil activity such a drugs, illegal weapon, and many more, so it is very hard to explain this to people who close their mind to listen in a good side of crypto. I suggest you to invite your friend into a group that related in crypto or invite your friend here in our forum to study and learn more about crypto, to see by himself that crypto has also a goodside.

We cannot blame them because they knew it base of the news reported in television or in the internet, but for me if someone say bitcoin is illegal, i will tell them that every thing in this world can be use in good or in bad intention it really depends on the users on how they wanted to use it. Because in my own opinion bitcoin for me is for investment help gain profit and income.

 someone says illegal bitcoin I'll ask them why illegal bitcoins are and I'll ask them why they can say so and I'll give proof to prove the reasonableness of the bitcoin.
