1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Teaching Bitcoin To My Friends| You're invited too (Online class) part 2 on: December 01, 2022, 03:50:14 PM

Been years before I've learned the idea of this technology. Checking progress would make it faster ofcourse and with proper guidance as well. Actually, sharing is fun not only in this industry but also to other things as long as it would give additional knowledge to other people. I hope you'd tackle misconceptions of this technology or industry in general such as easy way to be rich. This also includes risks involved from engaging in cryptocurrencies in line with its nature of market volatility. These things I think, are the best prior knowledge if you are trying to impart yours, before engaging with advantages of this blockchain.

My only goal is to expand the Bitcoin family, and we should definitely talk about the pros and cons of blockchain for a long time. By the way, I am completely against the "easy ways to be rich" methods, and in the first days when I saw these people, they thought that with $100, they could have $10,000 in the next year. These are all misconceptions, and I'll try to inform the people of this group about everything.

Good job!

Those hindrances won't stop you from teaching your friends about bitcoin. Do you check their progress if they already have started to buy little mbtc's from each of them?

It's good to invite people outside your circle but I think it's good to focus only on them first and see the progress of each of your friend.


Thank you buddy Wink

Yes, all my friends now have at least $100 Bitcoin in their wallets. In the third/fourth week, I showed them how to buy bitcoin from an exchange and bought $30 bitcoin to show them how it works. Also, they have completely learned how to sell bitcoin and know all the security tips about the wallet.

After about 3 months, I am here again. After reading your replays and your support, I got a lot of motivation! But this is not the whole story.

You can find Teaching Bitcoin To My Friends (Part 1) here. (The whole story started here)

When I started my weekly meeting, after a while, I noticed that some of my friends can't come to my house. I live in a rainy city; sometimes, the rains continue for months, and my friends cannot come to my house on rainy days.

So I decided to start online classes. Every Friday, we have a friendly meeting for 2 hours, and we talk about Bitcoin and all the important events that affect the market.

If you also want to join this group, I can create a discord server where we can talk and have a friendly meeting every week. I'll read your replays, and if you want to join this group, I'll create a discord server and update this post in the next few days. Cheers Wink

Actually, it depends on the amount of investment. My first choice is Bitcoin. All altcoins will fail if Bitcoin fails, which can destroy your entire investment.
Even some altcoins can be destroyed in some fluctuations, and your money will be lost completely.

But why did I say, "it depends on the amount of investment"?

Because investing in some altcoins can bring a lot of profit. For example, if you have 500 dollars. Invest $400 in Bitcoin and $100 in an altcoin. In this case, if the altcoin explodes, you will have a good profit.

I've tried multiple times, however I always get the same response after a few months. They tend to forget about everything we've talked about, and don't use that information that I gave them to do their own research. However, I'll admit that might be due to me being a awful teacher, I'm not sure.

I find most people that I come across are interested in Bitcoin in some way, but ultimately it's a little bit too much work to understand it, since it's not a easy thing to understand right off the bat. I've never attempted a class room teaching scenario like you've done above though, only really had one on one conversations. I think I've convinced one person to be interested enough to believe Bitcoin might be a better alternative, but to my knowledge they've yet to get stuck in.

First, I have to say that I have been in this situation before. My brother is about 40 years old and still has no idea about Bitcoin. My God, teaching him about Bitcoin was a nightmare. I just think some people can't really understand bitcoin. Do all students learn math in a classroom? Of course not!

Second, yes, the teaching method is very important. I recently saw a video on YouTube where someone was teaching teenagers about Bitcoin using flash cards. I think it's great.
In the end, thank you, and I hope you can experience the excellent feeling of teaching someone. Wink

This isn't a book but it's enough to serve as a solid foundation to learn the technical know-how of bitcoin.

Bitcoin elementary books
- https://littlebitcoinbook.com/
- https://landing.coingecko.com/how-to-bitcoin/

Thank you, I will read them for sure.

PS: If you have friends who don't know anything about Bitcoin, start teaching them. Believe me, you will be happy after each meeting

I usually do it the reverse way. Instead of convincing my family, relatives, friends, etc., to start learning more about Bitcoin, they’re the ones who approach me to learn more. Coz’ I don’t want to waste time teaching them if they are not interested. I consider them as interested if they are the ones who usually inquired to me.

How do I attract them? Posting Bitcoin-related news, images and memes in my social media. Travels. Lifestyle change.

They just simply ask what I do and I just told that I’m into Bitcoin. That’s it. End of conversation (unless I hear from them that they want to know and learn more about it, so the convo continues).

We can’t please everyone you know. There are also no promises or guarantees that they will buy Bitcoin even if they are interested to learn.

But in the OP’s case if that’s what you are really aiming for, go for it. Continue spread the word about Bitcoin the way you are doing now.

In fact, I found that they are interested to learn about Bitcoin. Also, one of them wants to buy some bitcoin and give it to his wife as a wedding anniversary.


In the First place, I admired the courage you have by doing this thing to your neighbor, and sharing teaching to those people who are thirsty to learn about bitcoin. This is just my opinion, since they are new to learning bitcoin, maybe you should slow them down first, maybe later on they won't immediately absorb what you are saying to explain bitcoin. I'm not saying don't teach them Bitcoin trading, maybe it's too early to put them on that subject. Because most people here in this community know first. But whatever your style is, I don't want to cover it. This is just my advice to you that you have no obligation to do or follow, but if you do, thank you.


Thank you. Wink Yes, at first, I want to teach them the simple things and use memes and videos to better understand everything. Anyway, thanks for your advice.

After seeing Mr.Magkaisa's post, I decided to teach my friends a little about Bitcoin. I know them through university, they are 25, 27 and 35 years old respectively. A few months ago, we talked about our work, and I told them that I am a member of a Bitcoin community.










They had no understanding of Bitcoin. After seeing Magkaisa's post a few days ago, I decided to call them and invite them to my home. First, I showed them a video on YouTube and then wrote everything on the board. They wrote down all the tips, and next week I will teach them how to buy bitcoin through an exchange. Maybe Binance or Coinbase. After the meeting, I had a good feeling. Teaching others is a fantastic feeling. If they invite their friends to this class, I can teach more people about Bitcoin, and maybe I'll invite them to this forum.

For now, I will teach them about buying, selling, and holding Bitcoin, and I'll use YouTube for video tutorials. Also, maybe I'll buy a book about Bitcoin (if I can find it); if not, I'll have to download a book and print it out.



Do you know a good book? Please let me know. (For elementary level)


PS: If you have friends who don't know anything about Bitcoin, start teaching them. Believe me, you will be happy after each meeting Wink

9  Economy / Scam Accusations / [SCAM ALERT] Avalar.vip Scam Ponzi Project on: August 18, 2022, 01:41:30 PM
What happened:

Avalar is a scam investment project that offers unreasonable high profits. Also, instead of a Telegram group (where you can see the opinions of all investors), you can find only one Telegram ID. By looking at the plans of this project, you can understand that this is an unreasonable profit to attract investors: (~4.333% hourly for 24 hours (deposit included), 120% after 1 day, 200% after 7 days). Please pay attention to this part:

They created a unique robot that generates daily profit and predicts the stages of bitcoin.  

It's like a joke. Also, I have found a site with a similar design that has been launched for only a day and is probably going to scam (In that case, I will update this post). https://amr-invest.com/

Believe me, instead of asking this question here, go and watch some videos or read some books. Also, if you want a suitable person to teach you about Bitcoin and blockchain, contact Mr.Magkaisa.
He's currently teaching Bitcoin to his neighbors, maybe he can create an online class for you.

13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / What happens if I send my BCH to BTC address? on: August 16, 2022, 01:39:13 PM
Well, I think this can be a tutorial for beginners. If you are using Atomic wallet and you've sent your BCH to BTC address, don't worry, you can easily recover it in another wallet (like Electron-Cash).

  • First of all download and install the Electron-Cash wallet: https://electroncash.org/
  • Now go to settings then go to the private key section and enter your password and find your BTC private key. Now, copy it.
  • Now open the Electron-Cash wallet and choose Import BCH addresses or private keys and paste your BTC private key that you've just copied it.
  • Click on the next option. Now you can see your BCH in your ElectronCash wallet.


That's it  Wink

Found two other "active" websites with similar content:


Thanks. I've looked at these projects and I can see that the format of these sites is quite similar.
Of course, most of them are only active for 3 or 4 days and then they become a scam project.

What happened:

Well, this is an obvious scam project. Currently, there is only one active plan (Bronze) on this Russian website: 110% after 24 hours. Just look at the design of this site. (Forget 110% after 24 hours) The format of this website is completely similar to other websites like: cybervit.net, trxnext.net, mabetex.biz, and niobi.club.

Well, if you really thing that then you just helped his name be heard considering you are reviving a news from 3 months ago. Wink

3 months ago? So why did I just see it on Instagram? Cry Wow, Maybe I'm Roubini  Roll Eyes

So far I've never seen anyone using paper cash money as toilet paper. Isn't paper cash useless? Grin


Maybe in Venezuela  Grin

I am surprised to see that people still lose their money in fake casinos without any knowledge. Everyone loves their hard earned money. This is like an experience for you. If you want to enter a casino in the future, do some research about it.
At least use this site:

https://www.trustpilot.com/

PS: Of course, I think this is the wrong format and section for accusations.

Nouriel Roubini describes cryptocurrencies as "the mother or father of all scams and bubbles." Also, he thinks that blockchain is a simple thing and blockchain is nothing more than a sheet in "Excel"!

https://www.consultancy.uk/news/31267/most-consumers-do-not-trust-cryptocurrencies

Like WT*  Lips sealed
I have always seen detractors of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. But this one, it's hilarious.
In my opinion, these are the words of someone who has no knowledge about cryptocurrencies and blockchain. Also, I think that his only reason for saying such things is to become a little more famous and we hear his name on social media.
