Are you secretive about trading currency?

[michellee]

What? Is the attitude changing? You do not sell drugs, but cryptocurrency. My friends have not changed their attitude towards me.

Maybe OP don't want to share this secret because it can make anyone to be rich in no time if they knkw how to do it.

If my friends changed their attitude because I am trading cryptocurrency, I would let them go and never think about it. They are free to leave me if they don't like what I did and I will still do what I believe it's good for me. I am sure I will get new friends who will understand me and will accept me for anything I do because I don't do anything bad in my life and other people life.

When people ask, What do you do for a living? I have a full time job, but I also trade crypto-currency.  I do not like telling them about my currency and Bitcoin activities because when I tell people about trading currency online our relationship sometimes changes. They start scheming or they think "I can do that, better than you" and I suspect they want to secretly start trading too.
 
Does anybody relate to this?

I relate to it but it's in a different approach to my friends. Sometimes I tell them that trading is a good option aside from the job we have. It just up to them if they follow what I am doing or not and I don't care if they do since I have my own way of understanding cryptocurrency trading.

Sharing them information and let them to explore, there's always different approaches with different people around, for sure if they will be able to understand what you are saying and what you are in to, they will also see the opportunities and begin to learn more about about this industry and take their chances.

On the contrary, I will tell my friends that I do trade. But they think it's the traditional stock markets because I'm been trading stocks ever since.

So I don't know if some of my friends who I told about bitcoin is secretly trading behind my back. But I have no problem whatsoever though, the more the merrier. 

At least if they have been trading crypto, they will learn how to earn money on the sideline.

Yes, absolute true. Don't keep this thing secretive from friends and families. In fact, help them to learn this thing for the extra earnings. Due to the basic knowledge of trading can raise their interest in the cryptocurrency. If more people have become part of the trading culture then it must be good enough for the community as well as crypto.

Because thief are many people in the society who are eagerly waiting for learning the trading and they just need guidance from the experienced trader to avoid common mistakes while learning it. If we the people help them to learn things like this then it must help the crypto community in its upcoming growth. And the people who're against the crypto after getting enough knowledge to understand this thing can start to support the crypto after some time later.

But not everyone has that patience to teach others so if we want to tell them just ignite the idea and they have to make it brighter if they want to achieve something,spoon feeding them will waste our time.

When someone getting jealous of our growth then they are not the real friends and it is good to leave them than keeping them on yourself because at well hurt you sooner or later that some part of your life find someone who can accept you you ask who you are and they will help you at any situation are the real friends.

[Aivaryamal]

I assume that a small number of people still believe that bitcoin and other digital currencies can benefit the development of all mankind and improve life, so friends do not understand the benefits of this money

Why to be secretive about cryptocurrency you trade with? Its good for everyone if more people join and when volume is rising. I trade longterm with bitcoin, ethereum, ripple, iota, and many others. Longterm gives me enough free space for maneuvering, you need that free space for that kind of trading with so many coins. I think just some whales are secret about their trading cause they are moving big amounts, and probably they dont wish everybody to know their actions, all others are very opened and share their trading experience with others.

Really, what is the reason to hide the cryptocurrency you are dealing with and trading? It seems to me that you should even promote it, so that more people will support the altcoin, and it will gain more popularity.

Exactly, we need to promote the cryptocurrency and its use towards the whole world. So there is no point to keep the crypto and its related activities secretive. I have been in crypto for a long time and I have been started promoting the cryptocurrency since the day I started my journey. Because there are many countries in the world who think cryptocurrency is only using for buying drugs and money laundering and that's why they are consistently taking massive actions against it. Therefore it's become necessary to promote the crypto towards the people and teach them about the cryptocurrency and its best possible uses to make their life more profitable and digital.

Actually anyone of your friends will dont care and will not change their attitude even though you are a crypto investor. I think OP is only jealous if their friends will be more successful than himself lol. Different from me, I tell about crypto to all of my friends, but most of them refused it

Original poster here, adding another definition to this discussion:

Cryptography
1 : secret writing
2 : the enciphering and deciphering of messages in secret code or cipher
also : the computerized encoding and decoding of information

[Rufsilf]

Yes, very dangerous, people think we have a lot of money. Robbers are dangerous in my place, A lot of people got killed because of money. Some traders even hide their real idedntity in social media.

Exactly, robbers doesn’t care about anything but money. Well, yes it might be good not to let other people know that you’re trading at some point for your safety most especially that most people may think that your so rich because you are trading. I think you just have to tell someone that you really know and trust if that’s the case and be cautious still in providing information.

When they see you already earning from it, that will be the time they will really start believing, when they finally realise how it can help them too. I'm not that secretive but also not vocal, if someone will ask me, I will add trading as a source of income or investment too.

[thegoatiest]

Hell yes!
pissed in a pub.......  "I trade Bitcoin ya know"
"give me your password or else"


bad news.

[Gibreil]

No, I always tell to my couzin and friends the goodness of my industry. I don't care about their feelings as long as I have give them the information to make money. Why do we need to be secretive in trading? We are not just the human in this society, so you better to help than you receive something with them.

You cant blame people on not to share anything that they do know about crypto specially on the profiting side.Yes, adoption is needed but there
are people that you do know would take advantage on what you have known and then later on they do make competition out of you when it comes
to profitability.

Nice to share to people who have the interest as you, so you can share your ideas on how to improve and be profitable in trading.

I wish I have some relatives that are also crypto enthusiast, it would be not boring knowing you can share and ask their opinion about trading.

I think it is not something about keeping things secret because it does not matter if people know or do not know about the coins you HODL in the crypto market. It is just the market that will impart value to your coins and not the fact that you have kept things secret from the people. I think that if you despite keeping things secret reveal your holdings, people around you might get in the crypto circle as well.

Are you going to go about discussing what you do to every cat and dogs you see on the street, if robber is to rub you, you think they will rob you based on what they think you do? They will rob you if they believe you have something that belongs to them which is usually money and anyone with any profession could be a target.

The only people that will come around us are friends and family that will ask these questions. It is now left for you to know the type of friend you are keeping if it will be a robber that will rob you or not, so better keep friends that you won’t have to get scared of them robbing you.

I have been trading cryptocurrencies for the past 1 year.
I am not closed to trading currencies including cryptocurrency trading.
