Many people, such as early adopters of bitcoin, for instance, have become wealthy because they believed in things and ideas that most would consider rather idealistic and childishly naive. It may well be they didn't want to get rich from bitcoin, but still, they were rewarded for their persistence, faith, and rational thinking. I tend to agree with you that nowadays it is rather naive to consider bitcoin a get-rich-quick-scheme able to make all your problems go away. But bitcoin may help "poor people" to develop certain skills, qualities, a mindset that are necessary to make seemingly pipe dreams come true. For example, bitcoin discourages people from unnecessary uncontrolled consumption, instead, it incentivizes people to postpone the consumption of even necessary things. People witnessing the ever-growing value of bitcoin start thinking for the future more than the present. The more they save, the better off they will be in the future when bitcoin is highly distributed and widely adopted. Not only does bitcoin incentivize people to save and defer consumption, but it also encourages them to learn and think about the state of affairs critically, which also may help them to make fortune because smart people will often make more rational investment decisions than complete idiots who refuse to read and learn.

Brain wallets are unsafe. This is either a mistake, either a bad choice of words.

The seed for HD wallets (which some may confused with brain wallets, until they learn) is, on the other hand, secure if created with a proper good tool and in a safe environment, but should not be memorized as a backup. That's a sure way to lose the funds! The seed has to be kept safely, offline, in a written form. People forget, people suffer accidents or strokes, human mind is just not good enough.

And two more tips:

* consider buying hardware wallets for your coins if you plan to spend
* always double check the addresses you paste and the amounts you send when you do transactions.

or Maybe they are here to Hold? that's why they did not really consider selling because they can afford to keep holding for long term?

like what the early adopters did , maybe your friends are willing to be holder than selling in ATH 

but the sad part is they may have doubled their funds now if they did sell in 60k plus and will buy again if time comes price drops down to 30k.

Probably create such a topic next time before the drop actually happened, not after. So you just wouldn't look like some Mr. hindsight who wants to look smart in an internet forum and calling people noobs.

I am wondering how your site is about bitcoin faucet and you came up with the idea of how someome can earn bitcoin? I hope other members can check if your site in your signature is legit or not. But to make my own opinion, faucets are no more profitable, it wasted my time in the first few weeks I started to know about bitcoin.

I thought this was written by a newbie but checked again to find a Legendary member doing this. A higher rank is supposed to set an example for the lower ranks to follow. Your activities on www.bpip.org show there has been no change of password or email in the last 30 days. So I assume the account hasn't changed owners and it is just you not caring enough to put some effort into your writing. And enjoying the freedom of one line lasts and you have been getting away with it since.
