The technological side of cryptocurrencies are hard to get your head around, it is not that it is complicated, it is just so distant from what ordinary people think about technology, when i am out talking about cryptocurrencies, the thing most people find confusing is what happens to their coins once they send them. but i have also tried to explain how FIAT currencies functions and this have people even more confused, but we used it anyway. this leads me to conclude that the technical aspect is not important for people to get into the game.
