Hey guys!
I have noticed that whenever people in real life find out that I use bitcoin, they ask me to explain it to them. For example, some family friends that are my age came over to my house around 2 weeks ago, when they arrived, I was looking at crypto graphs because I had a little bit of money saved up to invest. Bitcoin was on one of the charts, so when they walked into my room, they asked about it, "You do bitcoin? How does it even work?." So I started explaining it to them, but what they didnt get was that it is decentralized. When I was explaining it they asked "Why doesnt bitcoin's creator give himself a billion bitcoin?" I told them that it is impossible for the creator to do so since he doesnt have control over the network, but after I said that, they told me that I was wrong and that since He made it, he can control it, which is incorrect. Do you guys have any suggestions on how to explain coins to non-crypto people?
For me i find it difficult to explain crypto to people because as soon as i start talking about some technical stuff they start get way overwhelmed and they think that it is way complicated than what it really is and they lose intrest and they start looking at me like i am some kind of hacker for knowing this stuff, so i think that the best way to inform people about bitcoin or teach them about it is to stick to the basics and keep mentioning that they are able to get profit from it and they will stick with you.
