Even i tried to help my friends a lot buy educating ...But of no use....I 1st came across bitcoin in mid may 2017 and got so fascinated about it and made my 1st investment & from day 1 till now before writing this  Cheesy I tried convincing them but the answer it comes is...

# ohh its become too much..what if it come of down suddenly( again they are not thinking its for long run)

# In INDIA they say its not legal so i will get problem ( well its not legalized,  mean its not  illegal )

# Here they are saying IT (income tax ) raids will occur on Indian accounts using to purchase bitcoin and accounts ..My account will be seized    

 Here in INDIA in every media there is talk about BITCOIN and about its returns and what assumption ppl have here is ..its an pyramid scheme ..and lot of others think its  kind of investment fraud scams happend here and showed by media a lot n very negative thoughts about it..

Well even most of my educated friends still didn't believe n trust n couldn't invest..

From the day 1 of my journey when ever  BTC increased  by 1k $ i kept on reminding them ..invest..invest..invest..even today, The answer is will it still come down..its to costly let me think..same words i am hearing even after seeing the growth whats happening..

I had same experience when trying to explain to my coworker,
But it is pretty normal for casual people to just ignore it, most people are just hate risk, they try to run away from it
I am learning crypto because I learned about stock trading first and doesnt feel satisfied with it

The easiest thing to do to convince them is, show them what you have achieved Cool

It is not recommended for anyone to encourage those people into bitcoins but the very nice thing to do is help anyone who is asking for the information about bitcoins because in this way we can help them to earn more profit in trading or bounty campaigns if you introduce this things to them.

Yes I do because my closest friends do so with me also. I helped one of my friend by introducing him to the BTC, telling him how the cryptocurrency work and how it's valuation deflate or inflate, the procedure by which one can invest into BTC and convince him to join the BTC club and make him believe how much this BTC is profitable and BTC has such a great future ahead and now he is a part of survey campaign and at least earning his daily expenses and now he is very thankful to me.

I never did and I don't want to. I have a hard times explaining bitcoins to someone. And I never want to be blame when I encourage them, then when their investment lost its profit. I just talk about bitcoins to people who are aware of it.

Bitcoin has been awesome and will always be awesome. We, who have been involved in Bitcoin since the very early days understand this very well. However, for the laymen, for the people who don't really understand the technical aspects of Bitcoin or those who only watch the mainstream media are skeptic about Bitcoin. Since, all they hear in the News is how Bitcoin can be used for illegal activities and how it offers complete anonymity (common misconception) to people to do what they need on Internet.

Have you ever convinced or encouraged anyone to invest in Bitcoin and did you have success? Of course, since we know that we are giving a good advice, so we would usually advice our own family members or friends about this.

In the past few months, I encouraged some of my friends to invest in Bitcoin. They had a lot of questions about it from technical perspective and I helped them understand. They invested in Bitcoin and are very happy with the returns. And now this information propagates and more people will get involved in Bitcoin.

In my humble opinion, as a Bitcoin enthusiast, we can help understand people the positive aspects of Bitcoin. The price of Bitcoin is still in the very initial stages and those of us who really understand what Bitcoin offers, know that Bitcoin Price is only 1/10th of what it's worth right now.

What are the most common responses you get from laymen about investing in Bitcoin?

Some popular ones I receive are:

1. "Oh, it's already too expensive, I cannot afford to buy it."
2. "The governments don't regulate it, why should I invest in it?"
3. "It's an illegal currency and only cyber criminals use it."
4. "What backs up Bitcoin? For example US Dollar is backed by Trust (all time favorite response Cheesy), but what backs up Bitcoin?"
5. "The market is way too volatile to invest."
6. "You can't really use Bitcoin as a currency."
Hmm yes some of my friends i encourge them to invest in bitcoin to earn money i just encourge my friends that who need money.. I just want to help others coz at first my friends help me and i just want to help others to help them financially..

Indeed I have persuade or urge somebody to put resources into BTC in light of the fact that I additionally need them to procure BTC so they could have an all the more better wellspring of pay like BTC. The primary individuals that I have persuade is my companion since he needs to help his family and after that. He have the capacity to help his family to give their requirements and to pay the greater part of their costs.

I always encourage my friends and my family to try it and as of now me and my cousins are using it. I told them the benefits I get everytime I got into a campaign or anything I show them the things I bought in bitcoin they we're surprise and because of that they also get in in the bitcoin world like me. our parents didn't argue with us because we helped them in the house bills.

Well No, I've never convince or encourage someone to invest in Bitcoin nor i do in future. Bitcoin is volatile and to much risky. Even if i convince with anyone they become greedy and invest their all money, Without getting any information or any knowledge they can be at a losing side. After getting lose they'll start blaming me. So its better to stay away and always mind your own business.

I never do that, it's better for those who decide for themselves. We simply guide them, because beginners in cryptocurrency are very vulnerable to losers.

I had mentioned to my friends but still its their decision ifthey will invest in bitcoin or not. It is hard to invest in bitcoin now because of the higher rate and it is not practical to ordinary persons who has a very minimal income.

So far, i'm still in the process of wandering deeply in btc since it's been only a month when i get started to invest in btc.Well, it's all thanks to a friend who convince me to give it a try since he also work in btc.I'll try my best to convince someone who's really wanted to earn some extra because it's really helpful.And maybe it would probably put their life in a good shape.

Yes, I convince my sister and my mother to invest also in bitcoin, they did but they buy during the high's because they think it will pump more. They are all wrong, it dump these past few days, but they didn't sell it already, they are still waiting the time that bitcoin will rise up again this Month or maybe next year.

I have plenty of referals on Binance/Cex. So, yes, my posts (on various blogs) often encourage people to invest in BTC

Yes I try to convince my friends to try bitcoins, in this way I can help the bitcoin community to grow and promote the essence and its value.
Increasing the bitcoin community will bring a high demands that will result to a higher market value which is a win-win situation.

I once encouraged someone to invest in bitcoin, and he did not want it because it was expensive and hard to understand, but I think it will be understood if we are ready to join bitcoin.
