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. Smiley

I think the best way is to go down to their level and not them going to your level avoid hard to understand terminology, and if there's a terminology that you want them to understand translate it to their language or meanings that they can fully understand, old people as we all know comes from a different generation, you have to understand the generation where they come from.

And if you want to make it easier, I think you should target a specific group of old people. If you will randomly get old people just to tell them about btc, it will somehow be hard. Try targeting old people who live their life around the aspect of money, banking, investments, stocks, technology etc. They will be interested about it as long as you are good in explaining. But of course you can still try other group of old people specially those who are not even aware of the technologies we have right now. Goodluck with that OP.
