I'm looking for the easiest way to make old people understand Bitcoin more thoroughly. I want to let the elderly know about the "Bitcoin revolution", yet I find it quite challenging to explain it to them in a way they can understand how it all works. There are some wallets that have a "user-friendly" interface, but even the basics of sending/receiving Bitcoin can have a steep learning curve for the older people. A Bitcoin wallet with built-in accessibility features, could help even elder people with vision or hearing problems to use the pioneer cryptocurrency in their daily lives.

If you happen to know of a way to make old people understand Bitcoin easily, please let me know. Any suggestions or recommendations will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Its never been easy to make these old people do learn about Bitcoin or even telling them the basics would really be pain in the ass.I cant think of any other way or basics of the basics trying to explain on what bitcoin is all about.Most of them doesnt really tend to hear out nor accept new innovation on todays generation and rather do stick out with that traditional fiat system. Trying to explain something that is out of their grasp would really be
challenging.It depends on a certain elderly if he/she's open with these stuffs because there are still some who still get curios when someone do introduce new things to them. Why not just letting them see some
youtube video? I think this is much better rather than explaining it verbally and it do save up time and hard work on doing so.

Agree, especially if the old people are not that good at using a technology device like smartphones, it would be very difficult. But if you really want to explain how to understand Bitcoin or cryptocurrency, try to explain how digital money works and I guess they will understand it as money stored on the internet. Explaining blockchain will be useless because it's already a complex term and I doubt that they will remember any term or explanation about it.

If they're using smartphones and aware of online banking, it's similar but the difference is bitcoin has its different market and it's decentralized where no one controls it. Don't be specific on explaining some terms, just mentioned those easy-to-understand terms.
