The first time I heard about bitcoin it confuses me a lot, the first thing that comes to my mind is it is the price if you won in a game,but, as time passed, I was amazed about what it really means. And I share this to my friends and they do research with it also, since they don't have idea about this at all.
Many of my friends have no idea what BiTCOIN is all about!
And the reaction is one of suspicion because people are normally afraid of what they do not know about.
The fact that it is not very known where I live... people are wary.
But through proper usage and time.. they will all come around.
I dont force it down their throats. I just talk normally about it in everyday conversations.. and I usually begin with explaining that there is a new currency called Cryptocurrency....
