Rather than recommendation, it is depends on how you show them by actions, use Bitcoin wisely in your trading and transactions, explain them nicely and educate the principle working theory of Bitcoin, and finally give them the space to evaluate themselves the real worth and value of Bitcoin digital currencies.

At first no one came..
After my recommendation.two friends started.
But they felt this as boring so they discontinued.

Try to make some earning by yourself than show off to your friend and then your friend will start interest for it. For the first attempt, can try to treat your classmate or office friend some food because you're using bitcoin instead your own money.

This is a great way to get someone interested in Bitcoin. When I tried to get one of my family members interested in Bitcoin, they wouldn't accept it, even though a few of my other family members have already. But then I used Bitcoin in a real world situation, and now they too use Bitcoin, because they saw how easy and fast Bitcoin really is.

That is what I am currently doing. Most of my friends and family have no idea what bitcoin is. It is just some weird nerd hobby

I told many of my friends about BTC before it was adopted by many retailers and many didn't listen, now it's accepted many places they're FINALLY starting to accept it.

Actually something like that was my tactic to get a few friends to start checking out bitcoin, going to a restaurant and me coming out and saying oh damn i left my wallet at home but of course knowing the restaurant does take bitcoin so i pull out my phone and paid with my bitcoin wallet, it pretty much blows their minds.

lol I would love to try that on my more skeptical friends. too bad there's currently zero restaurant (or anything) that accepts bitcoin as a payment in my town.

I've referred bitcoin to my family and close friends but all that they said is "What is Bitcoin?" "I'm not interested in that techie thing". It was so funny that for about 7 persons that I introduced bitcoin only my girlfriend listen. The point here is that most people do not know bitcoin and some of them doesn't like it since it's gambling and they might lost their money. Most people in the community were clueless about how it can change a person's life.

Yesterday 2 friends asked me about BTC. I introduced them to a faucet, but they rejected it because they wanted a fast way to earn much Sad. After that i introduced them to this forum and read a starting thread, but they didn't read that Embarrassed

I tried before asking my friend to join me in bitcoin rather than in forex because I saw my friend loss too much already why dont try it. After some

explain he asks me to give him 0.02 to be his bankroll to start trading but I never give him until now because of losing in gambling. And one more of my

friend want to try because of its gambling. Pure gambler  Grin. So if you guys want to ask them to join, try hit their 'button' whats use of this money to

them, after that they will try to learn it and getting started

told a guy about it the other day.showed him my titan scrypt miner setup
I think he sees the way it should work...but I could tell he thought I was out of my mind Smiley
with the Titan(s) etc

crap....He could have a point...and me using the magic of 20/20 hindsight..but hell at least he's 'heard of BTC' I guess that is 'some' progress from 2014

I just have to keep telling myself this 'mantra'

'It is not how you got your bitcoin but when you got your bitcoin....if it works prices at this point in time ..compared to the future price will have a lot less
power over any decisions I've made in 2013 - 2015 (or so I hope) Smiley

Yep thats the problem nowadays, every young guy in 20-30 is a drunkster or stoner.

100 years ago by this time people were innovative and created todays biggest companies, but this slime generation with their idiotic party culture is just driving me crazy.

I`m not saying dont have fun, what i`m saying that going every fucking night to a club to come home half dead drunk is not going to be a favorable "trend" to humanity in the long term.

Our fucking genes are degrading. Wake up people and start promoting bitcoin!

I introduced about bitcoins to my 10 friends with the help of gambling on satoshimines.com. when I showed them live by playing on satoshimines and withdrawal from it. And exchanging on localbitcoin to fiat currency.

They totally believed me and get involved in bitcoin world. Now they always ask me to sell some small amount of btc to let them play on it and win some money.

actually since a lot of people are interested in gambling and nowadays there is a lot of different ways to gamble with your bitcoin, i think introducing bitcoin to somebody using a gambling website is a nice way to get them started.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

But in oder to make it nicer you must show them your winnings first and an actual withdrawal.

Yeah bro. You are guess correct. Whenever there blockchain wallet gets empty, they just contact me and buy some small amount of btc like 0.01 btc.
