I was just talking to my buddy today about Bitcoin and he does not agree with how things will get better with holding bitcoin in the future. he is one of those uneducated people who think that bitcoin is only used in the black market and that nothing good and legal can come of it. So i educated him a bit and he might get on board.
Every coin has two sides and so does bitcoins, but the important thing is how we view at it and how we treat it, either positive or negative, so its good that you recommended your friend to use bitcoins now it is totally his decision how he views bitcoin.
