I'm having an MBA degree on Marketing. Due to COVID19, we are having classes online. However, we had a term paper submission and presentation on "Deceptive Advertising". I have selected the freebitco advertisement and had presented their Bait and Switch method to attract newbies to have click on their site.
The advertisement is- "Win $200 bitcoin per hour" which I think totally a deceptive advertising. Through this, I was able to give a little hints about bitcoin among my fellow mates and my teacher. I felt lucky when teacher asked me what bitcoin is actually after my presentation, I gave a short answer to them.
This was really great achievement of me, it may not be to you. I feel lucky if I get a chance to talk about bitcoin among my country men.

I dont have the patience on talking to someone on what bitcoin is specially when there are lots of people do ask about it and later on they do give out criticism but at least i have tried to tell someone
clearly and just telling the basics.

Yeah it does give that kind of achievement inside that you do able to widespread the awareness of bitcoins existence.This might be a small step but it does really matter.

So far i have told my classmate about it and following it up with some videos on youtube or even giving that Btc wp directly to understand that abstract line.

I am like that as well, I could explain bitcoin to people but for the most part they believe you are trying to sell them something as if you are standing something to gain by promoting bitcoin to them and they do not listen, and since most people do not really have knowledge at all about how the economy works then you need to explain that too if you want them to understand why we need something like bitcoin, and even if you do that most people cannot believe the economy works in such a way as it seems completely unfair to them, as such it is such an uphill battle that for the most part I gave up trying to talk about bitcoin to people unless they show an interest in it by themselves.
