Not sure why this is getting downvoted. Parent is right, most folks don't get it, even technical ones. Most people aren't in STEM, aren't making north of six-figures doing tech, and aren't super literate when it comes to even basic technology, like their car or IR TV remote. This Christmas, buy everyone in your family and all of your friends $100 worth of BTC. I'd bet my hat that you'd have to explain how it works, in a practical-how-to-trade-this sense, to virtually all of them, save for those in STEM. And even if they learned how it works, what's your aunt going to spent the BTC on? Can't take it to Applebee's, or Wal-Mart, or Bed Bath & Beyond, or pay a mortgage or a parking fine.
