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?

You have a very good question there Findingnemo!

It is quite frustrating at times to try explaining what bitcoin is, not only to ordinary people, but even to those professionals and executives with computer background.

And with the news agencies bitter coating bitcoin, the fraudelent impression just keeps tainting the world of this digital cash black in confusion.

Perhaps the best way to introduce bitcoin is treat them to a nice restaurant that accepts bitcoin, announce with bravado to the waiter that you shall be paying with your bitcoin wallet. And once the bill has been paid, i'm sure your friends will ask you what bitcoin is? Then you simply answer, it's a digital cash. Surely, they will understand better. #winks

I tend to explain to them further how bitcoin was truly purposeful. Especially the benefits and the innovations of earning that the bitcoin has been provided throughout its years. We don't force them to believe the exolanations that tells the truth how good bitcoin is but to enlighten them on what they are missing.

I have met many people that say Bitcoin is illegal or it won't stay revelant for long I have tried to reason with them and show them various sources supporting my point.Some have given it serious thought but most of them have dismissed the idea or won't hear other opinion.

There is no basic and proper point to show that Bitcoin is illegal and there was no rules or regulations against Bitcoin at that time when it was introducing in the first place but people believed in that which is why many people invested and if some government or an individual is saying that Bitcoin is illegal it is simply because they have no idea or understanding about it or they are afraid of it

Then i should stop wasting my time and effort in convincing those people who will still refuse even after i had explained my knowledge about bitcoin or other cryptocurrency. Anyway, it would not be my loss but it will be theirs.

Yes, like you I explained to them that bitcoin is not illegal cause many people are want to join in bitcoin and they believe and trust to bitcoin it will give them brighter future. I think this person are not open minded in cryptocurrency and lack of knowledge that's why they judge bitcoin.

Well you ask them if cash is not used by these terrorists and hackers. Now since cash is mostly used by these people is that person going to stay away from cash too? The people having such thoughts in regards to bitcoin have been influenced by the  media and likely wont believe into what you have to say.

Such thought is as a result of the anonymous nature of the technology. Majorly I try as much as I can to explain the technology to them with proves and charts and if after which they still doubt, I leave them to their decision and knowledge.

I just smile because I know the person doesn't know what he is talking about. I don't usually explain Bitcoin to other people unless they are interested and whenever they ask regarding usage of criminal with Bitcoin, I always tell them that Bitcoin and fiat currency is just the same. They both use in legal and illegal transaction. It is already depends on who is using it.

When they say this you immediately know they have never really researched bitcoin, but it's not worth my time to keep trying to educate people who seemingly know "all about it" already.
I think this person are lack of knowledge about in cryptocurrency he is not open minded in cryptocurrency investment  we just ignore this person cause it is not helpful for us.

Ignore them. That simple. No amount of explanation can convince haters to change their opinion on bitcoin. It’s their loss anyway.  Cheesy

If it tends to be more of the person is not ready to hear you out then tell  him/her ooow ok if it illegal I hear  Smiley. Try as much as possible to change your  life within the shortest possible time, trust me he will go and search the true meaning of bitcoin
For me I challenge this is person I said to him make a research and prove to me that bitcoin is illegal. Why you said it is illegal many investors are believed and trust to bitcoin.

Anyone who still can not change his view of thinking that bitcoin is harmful or illegal despite all the developments across the world will remain in ignorance for a very long time. I think  I will have to leave such a person to happenings around and give him constant reminder as events unfold. He will change his view at last.

Well that is a good way though,but sadly there is only one restaurant accepts bitcoin as payment in my whole country,so from this I got a point we need more vendors who accepts bitcoin as their currency then only they can convince the people it also cn be used by normal people as well.So who will initiate this? I think we need to accept initially then it will roll over all over the places.

I am always to them softly and try my very best to answer their questions and ask them to listen to my explanation, by that way it may brighten their minds and maybe it will change the way they think about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. But in the first place, it's their point of view that matters and its their loss for not trying to understand bitcoin, Bitcoin is a blessing and soon to be worldwide currency and a future asset.

Unfortunately some people still have that opinion and the cause is partialy the very begininig of Bitcoin when it was used for buying goods on illegal markets.
Still many things have changed since then and now it's needed to explain to the people that Bitcoin is not illegal although it's not regulated in every country and that can be legaly used as an investment, asset or payment method. But to fight such prejudice Bitcoin needs better promotion.
In early days when I joined the bitcoin world I was also facing such thing, even my close friends were not ready to hear me, they were against bitcoin and were not ready to invest their money in bitcoin or to use it for online shopping etc, but later one they realize the bitcoin importance and now they have a good investment in bitcoin and are enjoying good profit from bitcoin investment.
