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?
A lot of people these days are becoming interested to cryptocurrencies but the problem is, most of them does not truly knew or understand it. Way back then, my friend who taught me about bitcoin only gave us sources and then let us worked on our own to learn about crypto. I guess it is really effective way to help others since internet contains lot of information that we need to understand this thing. On the other hand, we can be their guide in small things.
