I think most people just categorize anything on the internet as not genuine or scam as mostly referred to, most people don't believe in anything as digital currency, they are familiar with hard or physical currency, and just like you said they are most influenced by all the negative articles about btc they read on the internet, and they have never took the time to actually read and research about it, they will rather go with hearsay from the wrong sources.

~snip
what do you think about finding people like that and how will you react to them?
Those people who sees not only Bitcoin but cryptocurrency in general are the ones who knows a little about money. Whenever I see people saying negatives to Bitcoin and crypto, I just laugh at them and saying to myself "Lets meet again after 3-5 years".

Most of the times we see news regarding hacks and scams that is related to Bitcoin and since this is the only news that a normal people sees on the internet, they will generalize it saying that Bitcoin and crypto is a scam.

Let them share their opinion and let us do what we know can help us. TBH, I don't want to teach other people regarding Bitcoin because I know that they are not interested on it. Different mindset = different results trust me Smiley

That's bad since there's a lots of opportunities inside this market, so instead of listening to hearsay it's much better study and do your own research before judging the whole thing. If you are concerned with someone who have misleading information regarding to bitcoin, you can turned that thought and correct them, giving  proper insight with how you understood the industry will able to give them a heads up from what they've missing with such negative understanding.

I always find people who think that Bitcoin or cryptocurrency assets are busting money and sometimes there are people who always assume that investing in bitcoin is fraught with hacker risk.
on the other hand I cannot assume that their opinions are wrong, but on the other hand I cannot justify their statements.
I always think that people who have opinions like that are people who don't really know about blockchain technology, or they just read from one of the articles that happens to provide news about a "dark" case in bitcoin, so they often assume that bitcoin is a range against hackers and scam.

what do you think about finding people like that and how will you react to them?
People who knows the importance of bitcoin never say its scam and who say have no knowledge about technology or how does actually btc and other altcoin works.Most of them even didn't about it but say this due to negativity spread by the others just to manipulate the prices.But our community will always have faith in the potential of bitcoin and know its not a bubble but most important digital coin of the century so we did not need to explain anything to negative people as with growing adoption and price pumps they will also recognize it.

Yeah most people often refer to btc as scam because they have no knowledge about the technology, it is good not to believe anything we hear and read but try and make our own research to receive the correct information about things, I did my own research on btc never allow negative talk to discourage.

They also got a point because Bitcoin did actually start as a bad coin because of it's dark use but suddenly it was slowly change , the image of btc have change because many people are now also accepting and using it .

In my opinion, just ignore those who consider negative bitcoin or fraud because that will only be a debate because they are not based on deeper knowledge about bitcoin.
and I've also experienced meeting people like that and they still don't believe it even though I explained it, and let it be my choice and someday they will realize how positive bitcoin is if we are in it.

It's funny how my friends criticize me too during those times I am introducing Bitcoin to them, and now where are they, they are one of investors too as they later found out that Bitcoin was not a scam at all, and I am not trying to get money from them just like Hyip scam. lol. Anyway, sometimes in life we need to check and investigate first before we say it is scam.

I would just send some Bitcoins in his wallet and then let the things grow on their own because no one can actually do this thing , you just have to grow on this thing on your own , also I would tell them how everything works and how you can actually earn with bitcoins , with trading and with signature campaigns and such .
Also it's just the people who never used Bitcoin who consider bitcoins a scam .

It is true that some people do not check the truth of the news about cryptocurrency that can be obtained. Therefore no wonder
many assume bitcoin is a scam. Should every information we get, whether negative or positive information be investigated the
truth. So there will be no more misunderstanding about bitcoin, especially people who are new to bitcoin It is advisable to conduct
an investigation and research yourself about the truth of bitcoin.

Well, I'll just simply tell them my opinion regards with crypto and even share my experiences through it. If they had bad perception to Bitcoin then there's nothing I can do about it perhaps I'll still tell them that there are good benefits of using a crypto and if they did refuse to accept it then probably I will enjoy the benefits myself along with the people who believes on it.

When I come across a person who thinks Bitcoin is a scam, I try to make him/her informed by sharing some sources that tell what really Bitcoin is and its history. I hope they will have a good understanding by reading from true sources.

What they think about bitcoin doesn't matter, what matters is how would I react to them and to what I'm hearing from them. It was said that dogs bark to those they don't know, so it will be natural if a non-crypto people would say ill descriptions and perceptions about bitcoin because what they know is only the surface of what bitcoin is all about. and will only listen to what they wanna hear and talk about whatbthey thought they know. I won't get myself into some nonsense argument especially if I know that the person's capability of accepting new and different perspectives isn't as high as the information they are about to absorb.

It is their idea, just respect it. It is their loss and not ours, bitcoin can be risky due to susceptibility of being scammed or hacked, but if you know what you are doing you can lessen the risk of it. Most people who get scammed or backed are those who think bitcoin is an easy way to get money. They invest in anything that promises great return without checking it, the impression they make or have is due to their own fault.

I just like this your idea of sending some bitcoin into those ignorant individuals who are against bitcoin to show the practicality of it through their wallet and perhaps when btc pumped right there in their presence then I believed they will have a change in perception of the what bitcoin is all about and possibly changed their negative orientation about bitcoin being a scam.
This issue of classifying bitcoin as scam have been raging for long I believed this is right time we start putting people through to the positive aspect of bitcoin.

Misinformation is common with Bitcoin. First time you hear about bitcoin you ask what is this and get a tonn of inacurate answers and articles full of lies, having nothing to do with the technology or the fundamentals.
Sadly you need to spent enough hours just to find a proper source to read. Most people don't have enought time to figure out if it is worth it.
Before you found out the whitepape, you probably listened about Bitcoin from the news, probably calling it a scam or a pump and dump scheme, or worse connecting it with criminal activities and hacking.
Most of the times the news coverage is bad for bitcoin, making it look shady in the minds of their viewers.

Saying that something is a scam because there's a risk that you can be hacked is retarded. I could say banks are a scam because there's a risk someone hacks your account and steals the money. They don't even reimburse people who fell victim of phishing and gave hackers access to their bank accounts.

It's not that different from Bitcoin. I'd say it's even worse because the bank is a third party under risk of bankruptcy.

It cannot be denied that some may think btc as scam. If that is their notion, I may not convince them to reverse their belief but I may say that it cannot harm them directly if they will try. They must know that every investment is risky and sometimes uncertain. We must or should invest amount that we can risk to loss.

In order to help them understand what bitcoin and crypto is, we should know to explain little by little without them feeling that we are forcing them to understand it (Though, we're not really forcing them). To understand it clearly, respond when they need it. That means, if someone needs help, help them but incorporate crypto on it. I have an experience that my friend, a non crypto users really need a money, since he's my friends, I helped him but I ask him to open up a wallet for me to help. Him, now knowing that is crypto, tried it. Soon he asked me what technology is that, and then explain.

Most of the time, people want the result, a result that can be seen by the eye, not just a mere thoughts explaining all over again which they might find distressful.
