Haha why do not you try to explain and prove to them that Bitcoin is not a scam. It only becomes dangerous to those who do not understand it but still invest in it. Besides, I think Bitcoin brings a lot of benefits to us. It helps us become rich, it becomes a real career

agree with you, it should be explained maybe they will understand later or at least show our circumstances that have done that and not proven with such news, even been very helpful for our daily needs.
by providing a clear information with our day to day situation they may understand that the scam news is a lie.

Really appreciate for all your valuable input!
I will leave them alone in stone age. I do not want to force or convince them, it is really hard to change one's mind, just want to let them know the good side of technology, freedom and eventually release from being a financial slave, do what them want, help people in need. At the end, the choice are theirs.

I am heading to this goal and hope all of you can help each other who willing to change to achieve too!

Be friendly but stop talking about bitcoin, I do not have the time to try to convince every single person of the great characteristics of bitcoin if they do not want to listen then they can keep their fiat and keep going nowhere as most people do, I invest in bitcoin and I know that sooner or later my life will be improved by it, when they finally see the results bitcoin can bring they will want to get in as well but it will be too late, it may seem cruel but I'm tired of trying to convince people.

It doesn't help when the mainstream media is fanning those flames. Even a respected news org like The Economist is still publishing articles that have lines like: "Bitcoin has become a combination of a bubble, a Ponzi scheme and an environmental disaster". In fairness, they are quoting someone else, but they also don't provide any counter-arguments to it.

Everyone of us have their own thinking and opinion about Bitcoin on how they react about it.But by letting them know what really is can help to them to understand it,yes at first they will not believe but once you show some experiences of yours that's the time they will think twice.

This is the image bitcoins have among my friends and family. They Still thinks that Bitcoins will vanish one day as many scam and ponzi schemes. No matter how you educate them, it becomes fruitless ,so the best thing to do is to leave them to their fate.

Just don't think them and it's a hassle if you will convince them but they don't believe. They will regret because you will receive a lot of money that can really help you and sustain your daily needs.

We don't have any power to command people or ask them to be in favor. If they thought bitcoin is a and you already explained it to them and they don't believe you then let them be. We cannot please anyone to believe we all have different explanation and interpretation of everything.

It is their opinion and you have to respect that don't force them to get into things that they don't want but unfortunately for them it will be their biggest regret.

My colleagues at work scoff at me, they say that bitcoin bubble fell from 20k to 8k and it will still fall, they say that this is the end. I just smile in response and suggest that they buy bitcoin now, because its price at the fall and may be this price we will can not see in future.

I believed you had not been able to convince them enough " seeing is believing" show them the way with proofs   and educate them why bitcoin is not a scam and ponzi scheme, personally if I had not practiced all these bitcoin of a thing I wouldn't belief it is real you still have more job to do in convincing them.

This is because of the structure of crypto world which is being used for speculation, imagine investing in coins just because they say something nice that they are going to do in the future without anything to back that up.

Bitcoin is not scam at all. It's a real investement that brought people money and made them gain profit yet people consider it scam because it is risky, very profitable but very risky too. So you can simply lose a lot of money by going with the wrong decisions. The thing about bitcoin is it's imaginary numbers something that didnt cost anything in 2009 is now at 10000k makes it look like a scam but believe me it is the real deal.

I would encourage them to learn more about Bitcoin and the blockchain technology.  There are Ponzi schemes and scams in this crypto world.  They just need to be aware of what is real and what is not.  Take some time to understand this new platform instead of just listening to FUD by other people.

Your friends are not well educated about cryptocurrency and how it really works, if they still do not believe about bitcoins then you can try to show them the videos on youtube of different people who are wealthy today because of bitcoins.

Let them see your wallet, well if they will still reject the fact that Bitcoin is a real and functional platform then let them regret all the false accusations that they have been standing for simce then. To be honest Ive been in that same positiom but to the fact that I have seen may people being successful with the help of Bitcoin I am now convinced.
