Again brought up bitcoin with a relative...this time my sister who is in charge of the entire network for a school district on Long Island, NY. Her response was that it was used by the ransomware bandits implying it is an underground, semi-illegal scam. I am quite happy to have bought one bitcoin before the fork for $1200, some ether and some litecoin. All the rest of the relatives sitting around had never heard of bitcoin and did not want to know anything about it. Amazing head in the sand way to live life.
