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?
That’s pretty legit story and i am sure many of us already faced it.
If you are making people understand about it, then make sure you keep the explanation as basic as you can.
You can make them understand that Bitcoin is like an asset which is stored online.
When more is the demand of the coin, more will be the price.
Regarding the decentralised part, just say them that it cannot be access by any second person or any government except the owner himself .
