Obviously, there are several ways with which bitcoin can be earned and payment of goods or services can be a way in which one can earn bitcoin. The magnitude of acceptance of bitcoin seems to be very low on the part of some individuals since these individuals do not know about bitcoin. Guys, I want to know how best you can convince such individuals into accepting bitcoin after they have rendered some services to you.
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Just ask, don't push it, if they want fiat give them fiat just ask them if they know about Bitcoin and make sure you don't fuck them.

Yeah, ask them if they want it, and if they show some interest explain what it is. Don't shove it down their throats or it will paint BTC users in a bad light. Also, you do run the risk of them accepting it and it crashing and then they blame you. Make sure you disclose its volatility so they are fully aware of the risks.

This. Don't be that annoying bitcoin advocate. If they said no, don't go like "but muh magic internet money". If they asked about what bitcoin is, then say your elevator pitch and simply hope it sells.

You can offer them a better deal if they will choose Bitcoin, like 5% increased payment, for example. You can also offer them a mixed payment, like fiat upfront and BTC after they've finished the job.
There are many factors in play here, people from poor countries might be more likely to accept Bitcoin because it would allow them to save up on fees, especially compared to wire transfers. But in some countries Bitcoin is already outlawed, so make sure that you are not pushing them towards breaking the law. As for the first world countries, I think people might be less willing to accept BTC because it creates complications with taxes and there are reports of banks closing accounts over crypto transactions. So, understand that people might have many reasons to not accept Bitcoin, not necessarily because they don't like it.

Accepting Bitcoin as payment for service rendered should be optional. We cannot force them to accept Bitcoin. Some people do not have any idea about Bitcoin and may think that Bitcoin is not worth it to have. But if I may ask, I would love to accept Bitcoin as payment.

Yeah that's right if they don't want bitcoin, don't push it to accept that they may possibly to  blame you  if it crashed because bitcoin are too volatile. But if they want to know on what it is, explain bitcoin as long as you can.

There are many ways to get bitcoin but the more risk you may encounter may also be about up and down the current bitcoin value, which is very important also for people new to bitcoin so it should be explained to people who just know bitcoin , to keep the bitcoin from getting worse out there otherwise.

Many people do not believe in bitcoin, but I will bring that trust by showing the results I get from bitcoin, and in that way I think it will help trust.

Someone can receive the goods because he knows the function of the item, so you have to explain first about bitcoin. when your explanation is interesting, then I'm sure that person can accept bitcoin

Bitcoin has a very wide scope f idea in which you have to understand fully. In order for the people to convince to use Bitcoin, you have explain it in very simple and clear manner in which they can understand. Cite some benefits and usage of Bitcoin and how it can help their lives.

It wouldn’t hurt to ask. Or just give it as a bonus. Like when the project is finished ahead of time or the result is above and beyond expectations.

I'm fine with paying bitcoin or receive payment with bitcoin. Specially this days that almost everything is digital. Plus it is so convenient to make a payment using bitcoin. You know longer need to carry cash or cards. Saves space and effort. In my on opinion.

In my case, I m accepting bitcoin as a payment for my services. I do think that bitcoin is volatile but I can exchange it to flat instantly and I can also hold it for more value. This way my prospect would also think that unlike flat currency thst deflates value when kept, bitcoin can be more of an investment and the prospect have the ability to choose from it at his own will.

But what OPs pointing is for bitcoin to circulate and be used on what it was created,the problem in bitcoin bow is being considered as asset and investment not a Electronic money to be used for payments in any transaction over internet

But you have a point to,because if the person dont know how to use bitcoin it's nonsense paying them with this instead use physical money for what is applicable

if you want to pay for services in bitcoin then pay more. like paying 10% more with bitcoin (or if it is a large payment then 1%). that should be more than enough incentive for them to encourage then to accept bitcoin payment.

if you are the receiver then give a discount again something like 10% for small payments or 1% for large ones.

If I am inclined to give a clear proof that bitcoin can be used as a place of income every time so it makes them have a strong curiosity and allow for him to try to invest in the future without any element of coercion.In this way bitcoin will be easy to receive and more rapid development.

Yeah, there right you have to ask them them if they will accepted that offer and if they refuse then do not be upset after all it is not advisable to use bitcoin as a payment for services rendered because it is very volatile, the price value  is keeps on changing, for the value of bitcoin at this time is not the value of in in the next coming hours.

Its not strange these days for people to accept Bitcoin as a form of py after rendering services, there are a couple of  stores even accepting BTC as a form of pay for goods, This is what Bitcoin was meant to be, a game  change in the financial sector and it has taken to the task properly, Hopefully there will be more tolerance from different countries to facilitate its growth
