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?
If in your country bitcoin is not prohibited, then tell them about it. Also name the functions of bitcoin and advantages. But why do you need to persuade them?!))
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Many friends say that because bitcoin is prohibited in my country. But they do not understand, which is prohibited only use as currency, and not prohibited if used as a commodity and investment. The government only warns that bitcoin is a high-risk investment. Often I justify the misunderstanding, and explain more about cryptocurrency, well there are those who will understand and some do not.
It is not new to me that people says bitcoin is illegal and scam and I understand them because they know nothing about crypto currency and I will make them understand that bitcoin is not scam but there are others who take advantage by the popularity of bitcoin and they used it to scam other people and above all bitcoin is not illegal maybe there are countries who tried to give bad name to bitcoin.

Say that the name bitcoin is just used. It is used as a way of paying for investment. Just like the fiat money used in gambling and pyramiding scams on bitcoin is also possible. So if they do not believe we will let them go and show them the things that bitcoin has given us.

well I ask the reason for it and mainly they do say things that are known by everyone and have not a support by any kind of research and fact. So when they say it it is obviously that they don`t know why they say it and it is good to remind this to them.

Many people are using bitcoin bitcoin for illegal purposes like hacking, scam, stealing, etc.. that is why most people think bitcoin as an illegal thing, which is not the truth. So I would stick into what I know and don`t argue with people who thinks bitcoin is illegal thing because you can not blame them at all, their friends or they were victims.

Just tell him that bitcoin being used by criminals is a sad truth and one of its cons. Also don't leave out the pros and he will understand what bitcoin is. And why don't you advice him to try and read some in the web about bitcoin if he wants to know more.

Easy to do that if people want to bilieve that bitcoin is ilegal then it depends on the country where you belong because there are some country thet also baned bitcoin but there are some country also already accepting bitcoin. Just explain to them everything i know but if they wont believe me then its fine no need to argue with some close minded people.

I would probably not argue with them if that's what they believe then go, they are just a bunch of idiots who believes easily on FUD and negative news about bitcoin. Let's just see who becomes a millionaire first, me, who's dedicating my time and effort on cryptocurrency or the people who don't believe and againts bitcoin and other cryptocurrency.

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

I think when someone says Bitcoin is an illegal thing,that people is having lack of knowledge in cryptocurrency.We should educate and teach them that bitcoin helps many people to be successful.

If the people think that bitcoin is illegal we cannot force them to believe because it is their own opinion and I think we do not need to explain to them it is for them to research about bitcoin. Im sure they will regret in the end that they did doubt about bitcoin.

what you always think and do is ignore if you know that you are doing well and do not mind them and think that you are better off

I have no idea what the problem of each person's thoughts, each one of us has a personal opinion, and that is their freedom, I would probably laugh and ignore, I do not need others believe in BTC, as long as I have income BTC has brought is okay.
