It hasn't been easy for me lately because I'm a student. However, I find time to make a way for bitcoin promotion. Today, after classes, tho the place wasn't very convenient, I and a friend of mine held a seminar in which we talked to about 10 or more people about bitcoin. We also elaborated to them about the disadvantages and advantages involved in crypto. Also, a WhatsApp group was created so as To Help them with anything that seems confusing. Of course, they already have their wallets installed! ♥ Lol.... My head was aching before and after the seminar. However, we had to hold it! At least with this example, others (including you) would do their best to promote bitcoin and the blockchain technology. Click on the following links to see the images 1. https://ibb.co/LRYTGwV2. https://ibb.co/TByZZmJActually I'm not in the image; privacy reasons Also, I'll be posting how you can conduct Your Own seminar for those who have that interest. Let me get well first.🙂

Shouldn't you blur their faces for the same reason?
Anyway, looks like you're talking to people on their early 20s or teenager (if my sight doesn't lie). Are they showing a good interest in blockchain or crypto in general and want to pursue a career in those fields?

one day bitcoin will be recognized by itself even without being promoted, in the social media group that I joined, almost nobody even promoted the introduction of bitcoin, but its members continue to grow, but if anyone wants to promote bitcoin, maybe bitcoin will develop faster.

Wow! That is amazing.
I wouldn't be able to do that since I would be really nervous. Even though they are my friends, I would be really nervous. The courage to give people some information about it is great, hope a lot of people could also do that. I think in our country that would be hard since we are talking about Bitcoin and they will be looking at it as a scam.

However, I'm certain all that Cam be seen is their face without their names and personal info. Same case if someone posts my picture.

But be you aware that if we don't promote it, that day may never come.

Do you mind describing to us what most of their views are concerning bitcoin?
Are they mostly interested in the technology? As a hedge or a sort of savings account? As an investment? A trading vehicle? or what?

That's really great! Small things you can do to promote Bitcoin matters a lot. You don't have to push yourself so much if feeling unwell. But it's really a great initiative you have and you friend. This just shows we doesn't need a lot of extra money, a lot of people around us to help in promoting and teaching Bitcoin to other people. We only need our knowledge and our initiative to do it. Me as well, I am trying to teach my friends but I guess they don't really want to learn because they don't make efforts as well. So I guess I have to stop trying to teach and help them when they aren't even doing their parts.

Lol, one of them also made it look like a scam. However, I told everyone that I would be explaining every single thing. And at the closing, it ended well ♥

Tho they didn't table their intentions clearly, I'm sure that all of them like bitcoin as a means of payment.

This is a good strategy in spreading words about bitcoin, many will get curious little by little when people attending seminars starts to grew that will attract more participants and users. It's a nice initiative by you OP to inspire other individuals who may want to share or join in crypto but still doubting.

Good job OP.Every effort towards bitcoin promotion help us build a bigger and better Bitcoin community. By the way,have you told them about all the Bitcoin Cash,BSV,forks,Roger Ver and Craig Wright?They should be aware of the fake "bitcoins" like BCH and BSV and the enemies of Bitcoin Core.

Bitcoin surely will be developed through the times and because it is in the mainstream and almost all of the people are really interested in this so called bitcoin in cryptocurrency. Why people are getting interested here? Simply because thy notice that just a one bitcoin is cost a huge amount of US dollar so they are very interested on it. If people are getting promoting it then yet it will be really a faster development will occur and faster spreading of news about bitcoin nor cryptocurrency will happen because many people will talk about it later on.

This is what I've been doing for the past couple of years with the local communities. It all started with just 5, then increased to 13, 20+, until the largest crowd that I've spoken was more than 600 students.
Until now, lots of people are unaware about Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. The only way for us to massively adopt BTC is to keep spreading the word, educating them about the real and positive use cases (not some Bitcoin MLM ponzi schemes), etc.
Great job for educating people about Bitcoin in your area. Cheers!

You don't need to have a lot of people attending the seminar at least you have done a good thing, to be honest that is a good way to attract many new users and adoption also in the future, the important thing is how to recognize the risk of investing in bitcoin and crypto, sometimes new people coming to bitcoin and crypto they are complaining about the loss of following the scammer site, I hope this is also done by other friends so that bitcoin and the crypto market can grow again as before, start introducing from a few people so that it spreads throughout the world

I have never been shy to talk to people about bitcoin, I've even posted about it in the forum sometimes of how I discuss with friends and coursemates about bitcoin in school also, I didn't actually brand it a seminar because I felt my audience had to be of a particular number for me to call it that, but whatever it's called, it's good to tell those who do not know what bitcoin is all about.
I was also considering of arranging for a lecture/seminar with the approval of my lecturer in my large school hall about bitcoin, it was just in my head, but this post has emboldened me to pursue for it, I'll like to see how the turn out will be, their interest, what they may think of bitcoin and bitcoiners etc.

Starting a seminar with a small group of people is good especially if your listeners are interested and willing to learn about Bitcoin.
We started from what bitcoin is, we told them how bitcoin helps users connect in a peer to peer way. We also told them the story of how bitcoin price grew and told them that it's volatile too (both in negative and positive ways). They asked a few questions because we spoke much enough for them. One asked about if the currency can't be seen with the eye, another asked how it can be sold for fiat. One of the things that marveled me is that one of them told me that he knew about bitcoin in the past but never paid much attention. He even told me that he had created a bitcoin wallet back then. However, due to this meeting of ours, he's back on the cryptocurrency track! 😍

I'm pleased to see this. I'm also glad that this post has helped to make you more bold. In fact, let me tell you, I think you'll do this way better than me 😎. That is not an exaggeration.. Lol

I feel like countries with less possibilities and poorer people have the highest chance of making a change and giving Bitcoin a real use, only if they'd be taught how Bitcoin truly works and if there was someone like OP who would deny their negative opinions of Bitcoin with facts.
I've always thought Bitcoin will show its true meaning during a period of hard times. Be it a recession, a war or anything else, Bitcoin will just then show its true strength, utility and power. One of the most interesting thing I always tell people who are new to Bitcoin is that you can travel with $10,000,000,000 in your pocket thanks to Bitcoin. All you need to do is just transfer it to a piece of paper with a secured wallet on it, and nobody will detect it. That's compared to fiat, which needs a ton of space to travel with higher sums, or compared to Gold which also needs a lot of space and can be detected at country borders.
OP, would be very interesting to know if any of the participants has already thought of an idea to give Bitcoin utility one way or another. If you're planning to do a few other seminars, I'd give them a "homework" at the end of the next one: Think of an use case for Bitcoin, and let's see who comes up with the best!
