Do you still bother to engage non Bitcoiners?

[Moiyah]

I am always in debate with some friends who doesn't want to believe bitcoin's capabilities. I'm getting tired convincing then that 'hey, I am using bitcoin and this is real, dude'. They are not that open minded and have traditional attitudes which is very difficult for them to accept new changes like digital payments. Oh well, this is our own affirmation and we can't please everybody.

With regards to people belief, I am inclined to respect them.  I do not see any point of having an argument if after I pointed out several concrete evidence they still cling to their belief.  I agree, that it is only a waste of energy and time.  Whether they are right or wrong it is up to them, same goes with mine since we are responsible for whatever action we have done. 

[Binauf]

Yes, that was how someone keep telling me till I said let me give a trial, today we only share discussion on how Bitcoin is going, all you need sometime is better explanation and good manner of discussion

[bhabygrim]

I still talk to some of my friends but I don't really convince them.
Sometime they are rhe one who is asking about crypto and stuff but that's just how it is.
They just want to talk and know about it but doesn't want to try it.

[Anonylz]

To tell you the truth, it is rather very frustrating to engage in the crypto talk with the non crypto people around you, in one or two occasions, the btc topic will pop amidst conversation and i will find myself trying so hard to educate such people with very little or no success,
but at some point i try to refrain from discussing the topic since they are unconvincing,
For now i only talk about it with very close relatives, even though it is very hard to do

[Whaleagent]

I usually prefer to not involve people who have no knowledge of tech because it can cause more damage than good. So Education is the first step, once they got the basics I will be more likely to feel comfortable to tell them about Cryptocurrencies.

I don't argue with anon-bitcoiner, I just only tell them why I love bitcoin and the place I will be in the future with my constant stay online and unending researches about the bitcoin. Some of them think that bitcoin has expired and it will never go further or they do argue that they are going to invest in something else but never bitcoin. I just tell them, whatever they choose to do is fine, but only remember there was a adviser.

Are you still embroiled in debates with friends and internet creeps or have you let it slide?

Yes i do. We are Bitcoiner but our lives revolves not only with bitcoin.  I hardly debate but when i do, it’s all about tech. And i don’t engage myself in a nonsense talk. It’s just a waste of time.

[purple.thoughts]

Years before, yes but now I do nit alrrady bother and make arguments with them. I will now just prove them that they sre wrong

[ljane]

Somewhere last year I introduced someone to BTC and he was ready to buy huge amouby until he realized that bitcoin has the ability to also decrease to the zeros and it's possible. Now he calls to know whether my shit(That's what he calls bitcoin) is still there and I always laugh at him cos he doesn't know what he's doing. Now I don't even have time to argue with him because his eyes has seen Caanan but his foot will never step there cos I won't I introduce him again.

[Sebas.tian]

The most effective way to handle those non-believers are to no engage them at all. The only way to make them what they are missing out is if the government gave the go signal to btc.

Until and unless you won't allow non Bitcoiners, then how come you expect the community will grow and also giving the chance to a newbie is also a good gesture to welcome without bothering their small mistakes. Spreading Bitcoin knowledge will help to take the ride of this unstoppable horse!

[EdenHazard]

I never bother until someone who himself gets interested and request me to give some explanation. For them I used to show our forum as well used to give the basic idea of what is cryptocurrency and the consequences faced in these days along with the need for such a evolution. Further is their responsibility to learn, make investment, trades or whatever upon their own risk.

it's much better, many of us waste too much time and energy just telling someone and convincing someone, even though they aren't necessarily interested and even anti to bitcoin, it will be simpler and not bother you if you teach about bitcoin, to people who already really interested to bitcoin.

But at least you should know what this field is, if you just rely on this forum to tell about bitcoin and cryptocurrency, then what is your function? To make someone convince about what we did, we should know first it firstly. In order to make other people believe that this forum is real and you make a contribution for this forum maybe it will be good for him. Sometimes if I find someone who gets interesting to bitcoin and cryptocurrency I just tell them about it briefly and I tell him with a few words that made him curious.

[Kakmakr]

Yes I do. I am not the kind of person that back away from confrontation or a challenge and I do not sit on my ass and wait for good things to happen to me. I go out there and fight for it, because I believe the harder and smarter you work for it, the more deserving it would be to achieve it.

Word of mouth is FREE advertising and it takes very little effort to plant a seed. If people hear about Bitcoin every day, they will eventually be curious and they will investigate by themselves. 

[nydiacaskey01]

I don't if I am the one who will initiate the discussion about Bitcoins. I tried that before to my friends and relatives but after 5-10 minutes of explaining to them, they just stare at me like I am talking about a UFO landing somewhere nearby, they don't believe it. I would if they ask me about it. Them initiating the discussion means they are somewhat interested.

[MFahad]

No, since now i am not interesting to convince to the people even my brother. But when i entered in bitcoin way before 3 years ago, then i did hard working to convincing people that to buy bitcoin, and my only one friend convinced on it and he bought bitcoin when it was under $385 and now he has huge profit on it, so to see him, most of my other friends convinced on it without any hard working. That's why i quit it. But if anyone interested on bitcoin then definitely i will educate him.     

[Kurukungkwang]

Which non-bitcoiners? Altcoiners or common people?
For altcoiners, I still engage in the discussion on why they should put more weight in bitcoin, not altcoin. However, for the people outside of the cryptocurrency community, I do not want to shill them into buying bitcoin since it is a high-risk investment. I only explain about the technology when they ask me about it.

For me I don't want to engage people who bothered Bitcoin because we can't convince it easilly to the people. We notice that some people can believedof what they are saying especially to the negative thoughts of their mind so we cannot blame it of the people bothered Bitcoiners.

[De4ted]

Arguing on non-believers is just a waste of time, sharing information about bitcoin or crypto is worthy.

Those who are not believing and dont want to are people that is close minded and doesnt want a change on their lives trust me you cant win on debating them. 

Thus, it is good to be open and share your experiences on bitcoin or cryptocurrency. There are bad and good experience that we encounter in here dont be afraid to share both of it, if someone wants to be involve into cryptocurrency they must be willing to take the risk.

Yes. There's no point trying to win in a debate with non-believers because they will surely want their own ideas to prevail. So it's just a waste of your time. I really think if a person wants to pursue on something, he will definitely find ways on how to get there and not just relying on other's ideas.

[livingfree]

I'm not convincing even before but I tell on how good bitcoin is. I'm not pushing my friends and even my relatives, I'm just telling them that bitcoin seems to be the future and start of waking up the world about decentralization. I'm aware of those possible scenarios that might happen if I will have a debate with non-believers, they love to mock bitcoin folks since they are also aware of the bulls and crashes that happened. I'm even more keen of focusing within my goal than arguing with any of them.
