So, what do people around you (relatives, co-workers, co-ed, friends...) think about Bitcoin ? Please, indicate your country, so this way I'll be able to make a synthesis about what people think about Bitcoin.

For me : I come from France. My relatives think that it's criminals' tool and that since they can't touch money they don't trust it (note that those same persons are pro-banks, where you can't touch money). My friends think that it is useless and that it has no future. Both of them agree that scare them the most is the Bictoin's price volatibility.

So not so positive Undecided. I hope that you aren't in the same situation.

Well here in the philippines. My brothers told me that this bitcoin thing is a joke they said you have been wasting your time on that piece of garbage go find something that can make real money and i said to them i will cash this out and you will know that this is not fake then i haven't cash it out till then because i don't know how but i want to prove to my brothers that this is real money that i am earning its a real pain because i really like bitcoin it makes my life easy when i load up my sim card or buy games and find movies that i can watch on but my brothers always scold me for doing this bitcoin thing and wasting my good time for nothing but fake money Cry
Well, it's not really fake when it can be converted to cash, can buy goods or pay for services. Right?
What do you mean you don't know how to cash out? Haven't you tried coins.ph?

I personally just tell those who ask what I do, "I work through the internet and earn/get paid in Bitcoins."
If asked what is bitcoins, "It's like a foreign currency  Grin (Digital money is still a foreign concept to most, so.), and 1 BTC is equal to $ 740 or Php 36,000." (Depending on the market.)
