What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin?

[aryana42]

I dont care about people who dislike bitcoin. Because i think, my life much better after getting to know bitcoin. And even better than peoples around me that i know. In fact, there are some friends my age whose economic conditions including the poor think bitcoin is nonsense.

[samuraijin]

Leaving when they show their hatred on bitcoin, you do not need to talk about something to people who do not understand the whole about bitcoin
 

[radjie]

What would you do when you're talking to someone but then he suddenly talks about his hatred on Bitcoin, what would you react to it?

I've never actually experienced anything like this before, I just want to be prepared when it happened to me.

Very contradictory if people do not like bitcoin even they always bad-mouth bitcoin because they always say the impossible if we get money from bitcoin, Such things we do not have to force a detailed explanation to those who dislike bitcoin because the more we clarify they always deny our explanation.
So let it be with such a person so we can prove it through indirectly to have the person slowly realize it.

People who dont like bitcoin today will surely regret it, as the price of btc continue to soar i am pretty sure that those who dont like btc will miss the opportunity to become rich in the future. Those who dont like bitcoin have zero knowledge about bitcoin and for them to like btc we must educate them and tell them the advantages of investing in btc.

There are always 2 sides of a coin and 2 sides of the story. Of course, you cannot compel anyone to like something particularly bitcoin itself. When you hear someone giving their negative feedback about bitcoin, all you can do is listen to their comments and try to at least understand their side. You really cannot force someone to like the things that you like since all of us have their own free will! After listening to their side, try explaining your own sentiments on why you like bitcoin and why is it advantageous to you. Try to make it as constructive as possible to avoid fallacious/childish arguments and in that way both of you are handling it professionally with no hatred building up.

I do not think we should do anything for them, they will regret when Bitcoin price is very very high, we dont need to do anything

You are right, people who don't like Bitcoin do not effect us, we do not need to explain or do anything to them, they won't hear us

[pealr12]

Bitcoin transaction cannot be reverse. Once you send the bitcoin be sure all the details are correct.
I think this is one reason why some people dont like bitcoin as payment option.

I think if someone talk like that the best thing you do is stop talking then hear all he said about it. Then if he finished talking its time to you to talk smoothly and explain bitcoin to him until he understand it.

I will treat him as illiterate as dumb guy and have no reason to live in this modern world of technology and when he have no knowledge and awareness about modern emerging technology and he should have such sense that wet should welcome new technology which have advantage in our life in present and in  future  So he should have such perspective that encouraging new technology will help to change the future and in future those technology will rule the planet and we should try to progress in those field and we should pay our efforts to make changes and nothing remains the same so those old era guys should remain detached from this kind of advantageous technologies and he should better remain if with his older technology that is banking system and paper currency which is prone to attact and thieves and even cheat fund like many small banks does but with bitcoin there is no such possibility. Our money our own bank we have complete right to handle our own money. And when those people have no such knowledge then they should remain off the bitcoin world.

[Tyrantt]

I wouldn't even do anything, don't try forcing someone to do something they don't do or like, it's their choice and loss if they dislike bitcoin and refuse to accept or get into it. Don't be that guy who forces people to do something against their will or calling them stupid if they don't think same as you.

Most of the time hatred will be the one that's first put forth by the user who just always have heard only negativity about bitcoin. This is not the problem of bitcoin, but the initial days of bitcoin was much used for illegal and other darkweb related activities, based on which negative feedback were spread easier than the goodness.

[xhienigat]

Yeah hatred could be due to lack of knowledge and being close minded. If they were people who are close to me, I'm sure they would listen to what I would try to say or explain to them, I will just make sure I will explain to them or educate them in the most simplest possible terms so they won't get confused too.

I agree with you . It all depends on how to recognize bitcoin and how to educate bitcoin to others. When the delivery of bitcoin is easy to understand it will be easier to influence others. Need enough knowledge to do this, we are required to be more careful in doing this.

Truth is, you can always easily take a horse to the stream, but getting it to drink is a matter for another day! Openly declared hatred is not same thing as ignorance, the former is rather a decision reached after some supposed good enough knowledge of a matter, so education isn't really their problem. Incidentally, we gave a number of them even here, they dont like Bitcoin and yet they are promoting Bitcoin based campaigns - who is fooling who?

I was basically replying to the term used by the OP, I don't want to use the term ignorant or ignorance because he said "he suddenly talks about his hatred on Bitcoin, what would you react to it?" But you are correct though, declaring his hatred over bitcoin is different from being ignorant because if he is then he would've had said anything about bitcoin and so on. And yeah there are a lot of people joining campaigns and posts on their point of view about bitcoin but are paid with bitcoin as well. Ironic isn't it?

Bitcoin cannot be viewed as an opportunity to make money for all people, we have different level of understanding and bitcoin is complicated for people who are used to traditional system. The definition of bitcoin is not an investment, we do not have to mislead people in order to attract them, let them discover the other side or benefits in using bitcoin.

I never also experienced this but if somehow I will then I'll tell him that he should learn from his mistakes and never to trust easily especially strangers. Even if its not Bitcoin or fiat or anything, there are people really that will scam you or take advantage of you that's why you need to be wise in making decisions. It really is up to you on how will you deal with the situation but if somehow you made a mistake then do in all your capabilities to ensure that it will never ever happen again. Besides, there are a lot of opportunities in Bitcoin that he shouldn't miss. If he really won't will not go with Bitcoin then fine, there is no need to force him since he has decided not to.

I can't imagine there are that many people that outright hate bitcoin, if they did then they would have had to be affected in a negative way at some point, which means at some point they would have had to like bitcoin, maybe.

Bitcoin I suppose isn't for everyone right now as it is kind of underground still and I find when trying to inform someone about bitcoin it ends up becoming a long sales pitch and people think it's difficult to get into. 

Based on bitcoin, there can be four types of people:

1. Those who have no idea what bitcoins are.
2. Those who know about the basics of bitcoin, but didn't like the concept so didn't try it.
3. Those who know about bitcoins, tried it, ended up in losses/it affected them negatively at some point and now staying away from it.
4. Those who are well-aware of the concept of bitcoins, knows the exact pros and cons, risks and benefits, and are still using it without any judgement and like it.

1. It is easy to explain about bitcoins even to a five-year old kid using some apples as examples. This category of people does not have any preconceived notions about bitcoins so it is easy to explain to them.

2. These are the ones difficult to deal with. Even without using bitcoins, based on their experience and their ideology about fiat, they have concluded that bitcoins are not worth giving a try. These are mostly elder people, probably bankers If they know the basics and are willing to look at the whole picture, it is worth explaining to them or just leave them with their rusted ideology.

3. This category is also tricky, they do not need to be given a class on bitcoins. You can convince them to be a part of the bitcoin family again by giving some investment advices, but god forbid if in ends again in losses for them, you are finished

4. Yeah, these are we.

So basically, it is too easy to explain about BTC to newbies. People who do not like it have their own reasons, convincing them would not be difficult if they are willing to listen. Listening to and acting upon it is their choice.

[radamiel]

I will boast of the wealth I get from bitcoin and flaunt it in front of her eyes, maybe I'll treat her in a fancy restaurant, and say that bitcoin makes my life change, if you do not like being rich, do not like bitcoin

Maybe you're right.We don't own their reactions..some gives positive feedbacks while others are negative.If people would just hate bitcoin because of their pessimistic outlook,then i won't even dare convincing her/him again.I would not waste my precious time explaining to them.The best way is to ignore them.After all it's their loss because they will miss the moment in their lives experiencing a luxurious life with bitcoin.

[Xenophoto]

What to do? Nothing at all. People would have a different perception of something. Others truly believe that bitcoin is just a huge ponzi scam but they are wrong. Even when you know that they are wrong, you have to understand that people are not going to adjust their knowledge about something just so they can agree with you. I simply ignore them, maybe laugh a little, and agree with them just so the conversation about the bitcoin topic would end. Otherwise, I would be raging with facts to disagree with him which is just not worth doing.

It's kind of difficult encountering such a person that has a hatred for Bitcoin in such a way he/she doesn't really want to hear anyone talk about Bitcoin. However, we won't rule out the fact that there are some who are slightly disenchanted with Bitcoin maybe because of one sad experience or the other. But I don't really think those experiences are solely tied to Bitcoin mechanism but on the people's own carelessness in handling Bitcoin transactions with  the many frauds that exist around Bitcoin because of its ever rising value.

Around me, people only show their level of ignorance of what Bitcoin is but not that they don't what to hear about it. They always are ready for enlightenment. Sometimes I avoid them because it's time wasting explaining it to them. However, if I encounter anyone having hatred for Bitcoin I will avoid speaking about it to them.
