Bitcoin Forum

In the altcoin forum i saw a question about the best social media platforms to promote an ICO.

Someone stated you can either target a smaller informed audience in more "scene" specific platforms like this forum, or you can try to reach the public on facebook or youtube.

But how can you spread awareness and enthusiasm for cryptocurrencies in general, thus increasing the size of the informed audience?

What are governements and private orgs doing to spread the word or even preventing it from beeing spread?

Well, usually word of mouth is one of the most efficient way to spread good vibes about certain information around. Mass media of course is even more efficient.

Indeed, I find myself talking about this topic with random people a lot,
but it feels like mass media, at least in germany, is not picking up on the subject at all.

Is my subjective impression wrong or do you think the ignorance is real? If so, any reasons why?

Also, the answer I tend to get most often is something around the lines of "Yeah, I don't really know about it, but I heard it's all a huge bubble"

How would you respond?

Crypto needs adaption, the more the places that accept crypto the better.. "Bitcoin accepted here" people will ask themselves.. :O what is bitcoin?

Social media is one of the ways to promote cryptocurrency. It's no secret that Facebook has over a billion users and the same applies to YouTube. But I for one believe that the best way to advertise cryptocurrency is on television programs and radio stations.

The most effective way and cheapest method to spread information about cryptocurrencies is through talking about it with friends and family. This will ensure that you are heard and that if you are enthusiastic enough that

enthusiasm will carry over to the people you are talking to. You can also use other methods like social media platforms or through organizational means but these are less persuasive especially if your following is small. However,

I would say the obvious exception to that rule is if you have a lot of followers and can influence more people than you could in your personal circle than obvious your influence could go a far way. Take JP CEO for example, his

reach is big and when he makes statements about bitcoin people hear it and listen in. If I made a statement about bitcoin people would wonder who I am and the credibility behind my statements.

i would like to say my friends and relatives with my mouth. social media is one of the best promoting way easily so i have to use social media. and in the web sites i have to give adds about crypto currency. next one is best and easy popularity is coming from social sites like twitter, face book, what sup, instagram and some more other social sites. i like to keep few videos about bit coins in you tube.

Well,  invite them to bitcoin world and show them proof that it is for real. That crypto currency was a big time and can bring you to a larger opportunity. To promote crypto currency on social media accounts and advertisements. It will surely help spreading out information about crypto.

Governments will not put their time to just spread a word about cryptocurrencies.  It was the private organizations who will and are doing things to spread the word about bitcoin and other digital currencies because for sure, they will find it a good business.  And now that bitcoin has a good price and very high value, it is not hard to teach people to use bitcoin.  When people you bumped who are looking for investments and extra income you can easily told them and they will agreed on bitcoin because of the fact that they need it.

Nothing works better than making people see how it can help them in reality. Show them personally how you make money and how you do transactions using crypto. It's going to be quicker if they can believe it themselves by seeing hiw you do it. Then they ll be the ones to spread it as well

The best way to spread the word is by advertisement. Advertisement in Television, Social Media and Articles(newspapers, magazines, etc.) It will not waste the time of audiences because it is from an advertisement, an effective way of captivating the interest of viewers is giving a good concept of crypto currency changing the lives of people through transactions, trading, online marketing, etc.

In fact, if I really think about it, recently I can't really speak about other issues rather than cryptos with anyone, so I guess this speaks by itself :)

I guess there is no real need to spread the word, the people smell money from miles of distance, so they will discover alts.

crypto will spread itself i believe, there time for every thing. noone spread computer, internet, TV, phones - they just enter everyone's life

Here in forum , all users that are participating in bounties are usually spreading cryptocurrencies in social media , like twitter , facebook , reddit , medium , telegram. And in signature , they just have to wear signature to be able to see others what is that cryptocurrency. Because we have an interner worldwide , spreading cryptocurrencies is very easy. Just make a video , upload it anywhere in social media and your done.

i think by sharing friends and family about crypto currencies or advertise online

Major Media network can help to spread word about cryptocurrency.
If someone doing a crypto yet working in media he/she can create a column about cryptocurrency.

It is a new technology which unlike others is not being supported by the authorities.
But again it's the same reason why it's getting much more popular.
I bet 2020 will be the year 50% of world be aware of this technology.

It happens by itself now. All hail the mighty media, W2M and the Internet.
How can you help spread the word is by knowing as much as you can about blockchain and then sell the idea of cryptocurrencies with a 2 minute elevator pitch (which includes the most important pros & cons) :)

We can help spreading word about crypto currencies in a simple way. Just tell our friends, relatives and family members about crypto currencies. And how we can makr money out of it. And the news will spread to other people through them.

Why not let crypto currencies do their thing and the best will really be known.
Just like bitcoin got known by all the ex girlfriends bitches that thought it was a  toy and now come crawling back for a piece.

By giving a good introduction and  understanding of cryptocurrency to the  people in our  neighborhood such as our family and friends. if we succeed give to them  the good understanding of  cryptocurrency, surely they will forward about cryptocurrency information to their family and friends. The information should  contained about technologi that utilize by cryptocurrency, the adavantages of cryptocurrency, how to earn and use of cryptocurrency

I believe that those people who have Internet already know for sure about crypto-currencies. The problem lies in those people who don't have access to the Internet.

Others use their social media to promote the crypto currency while others do blogs,
And there are others who use video to promote their alt-coin.

Well I just show people how I start, what amazing is the crypto currency, results I have been having (show them by my own experince and that is real what I am talking about) and that's it, they get totally interested in it, family, coworkers, friends.

I think that not many people know about crypto-currencies. Therefore, it was possible to do all kinds of conferences and meetings to discuss them. In this way we will attract the attention of others people.

peбятa, paccкaзaть дaжe нe пpoблeмa, a пpoблeмa - этo вoзpaжeния! pyccкий нapoд cлoжнo вocпpинимaeт любoe нoвшecтвo... кaк paбoтaeтe c этим?

Facebook really help a lot to spread the world about cryptos. Facebook users now are more than a billion so that is really the best way to spread cryptos. Advertisement through tarpaulins, banners or billboards can also help and advertisement with television.

Basically the government develops different ways to drive this sphere to the law to control any aspects of our lives. Nevertheless, there are many sites devoted to news, data collection and discussions about the crypto world.

i think from using social media like facebook, twitter,bitcoin forum ect. it will help to spread all over the world about crypto currency in my opinion

Show the people how a month ago Bitcoin was very near $20,000... and how it is under $6,000 today. Spread the news.

SPREAD THE NEWS ABOUT CRYPTO.

What about not spreading shitcoins and wait for Bitcoin to be ready ?

Crypto currencies are now circulating in the media whether social or print media.Through it creates social awareness of what or how it is.

I should do first to spread about crypto currencies are like the page of this in facebook or other chat group with advocacy to deliver fresh information about crypto.By then I can have the access of information and start posting them on my wall so that my facebook friends can read.Follow up with personal meetings .Invite also them to like the page .

Start with your closest person is a good thing to do. Explain to them what is crypocurrency and what is the positive impact that can be done from it.
Show them what you've already earned from the crypto (whether is from trading or another way of getting the coins) is a good thing too for gaining their trust.

A good way of spreading the word about crypto currencies is to focus on the use cases of the currencies/tokens. Investing in crypto currencies is not the same as going to a casino, if you look into the tech of the crypto currencies and base your investment on that.

Well we can spread the word  about crypto currencies by using our mouth, thoughts,and news.As we can notice now generation is so high tech.So  we spread the good vibes about our certain knowledges.

Word of mouth! If you know what your friends or family are passionate about, you can talk to them about how blockchain could bring exciting changes to that field.

For example, I have friends that love politics, so I talked to them about Horizon State, and the possibility of improving elections through blockchain technology. Another friend uses airbnb a lot, so I talked to them about RentBerry and BeeToken  :D

Consider this. Think of what it would be like if all property was labeled with a unique identification "number." Then the number was registered, along with pictures of the property, on Internet databases, and in some cases in government recording offices.

Add to the above the blockchain.

Now, rather than transferring a Bitcoin value (a simple number of bitcoins), the thing that was transferred was the identification number. It was transferred and registered on the the blockchain just like a number of bitcoins might be. The only person who owned the property was the last person who held the identification number according to the blockchain. The difference between Bitcoin and this idea is that the ID number would never change like the quantities of bitcoins transferred can change.

What might this mean? It might mean that people could transfer property easily. It might mean that there would be less or no sales tax. It might mean that the current holder could remain relatively anonymous. We wouldn't need banks or even bitcoin, necessarily - simply trade property for property. Governments would be limited in meddling with property transfers.

Sure, you would still have to do some due diligence. In cases of real estate, you would still want to pay a title company to make sure the property was as was stated in the photos... at least the first time it was traded on the blockchain. Other property, say a bicycle for example, could have the identification number removed from it, and placed on another bicycle. So, you would want to do some checking before simply accepting that the property you traded for was the same one in the photos and listed on the blockchain.

One company that is doing this with real estate is the Atlant Real Estate Blockchain Platform at https://atlant.io/.

The problem with all of these companies at this stage, is the amount of identification info that can be placed on a practical blockchain. For example, photos might be something way bigger than a blockchain could "carry" and still be practical size-wise. But this is where the Lightning Network, or some other, could be developed to hold side chains. The side chains would hold the bulky info, the pictures, but the main blockchain would only hold the latest ownership address-to-identification-number of the property.

Once the above is properly and effectively implemented, we can truly trade ownership of all property worldwide with fast and easy trading. The trick, again, is imbedding unchanging identification numbers into the blockchain, rather than simply amounts of bitcoins that can be tossed around, divided up, or added to.
