I Made Some Bitcoin WhatsApp stickers

[Chris Barth]

Majority of us use WhatsApp as a means of communication. But then, if we want to promote bitcoin, we could do that with stickers.... Right? WhatsApp (android) is the platform for what I'm about to provide now. Stickers are actually a cool way of expressing ourselves but then, considering the fact that stickers can serve as a means of passing information to others, I decided to create some stickers which can create a huge impact. I'll tell you how by using a few of these stickers as an example.

See the stickers here

The 1st sticker as numbered in the image can be used in a case whereby some one wants to pay you for a service. Using this sticker will definitely make the person as you the question "what is bitcoin?" otherwise, he/she would definitely research it by himself/herself.

The 2nd sticker in the image can be used in a situation whereby you want to purchase something from someone. Even tho you have enough money to pay, you can use the sticker to make the person wonder what a bitcoin address is. The same questions for the 1st sticker or something similar should pop up too.

The 4th sticker in the image can be used in a case whereby someone asks you for you bank account number. But instead of giving it, you send the sticker. If he/she doesn't know about bitcoin, they question would pop up and then, the ball would fall on your court.

There are tons of cases in which you can use these stickers. I just felt like giving a few instances. To get the stickers, kindly download the pack here
Then  install this app so you can connect the downloaded pack to your WhatsApp. The app is only 45mb.
Open the download from your device file manager using the installed app. Once it's loaded, click on the "add to my library" option. Then finally click on "add to WhatsApp" and you've gotten them. If you have issues getting the stickers, you can still ask for my help; I will help you.

Use them in a smart way (not in a manner that'll be disturbing). If you have more stickers idea, you can either suggest or create them yourself (for WhatsApp or other platforms).
Please do not think that because one person doesn't have interest, the others won't have interest too. No! We are all different people with different minds. Give it a try to as much people as you can. Thank you.

Wow. I actually succeded in getting the stickers. They are really cool and I'll proceed to create more (with the aim of promoting bitcoin). Thanks for this and keep up the good work.

I'm glad you loved them! It's a good thing that you've decided to create more stickers. If possible, create telegram stickers too. Thank you too!

That's actually nice of you, but I can't think of an instance in which I'd use these stickers with my friends.

I'd rather go for some stickers like these or some cute, chubby ones with puppy-like eyes and all. But I'm not a designer so someone with an artistic hand could do it. I'm talking about something similar to this:



I think the text placed on your stickers are limiting the usage of them too much.

Don't take this as hate - I always like to come up with a bit of critique. It's a good initiative and I hope I won't offend you or anything but they seem a bit too simplistic and can only be used in specific scenarios... for example, online negotiations.. but I'd rather not send stickers during a serious transaction. Just saying.

Actually, I get your point and I'm not taking it personal. You're right; they are actually simple but then, my aim is to inspire people to create better ones that'll in one way or the other help in the promotion of bitcoin.

Well, some transactions could be too official for you to use them. However, such stickers are also suitable for some transactions (e.g a transaction with a regular customer, a trancastion with a friend who doesn't know about bitcoin, etc).

I get what you mean. I was talking about how specific the text is on your stickers. I think it's more important than how simple/complex they are and how professional they look tbh.

For example, I'd make a sticker with the text "Have you heard of Bitcoin?" instead of "I accept Bitcoin payments". "Have you heard of Bitcoin?" could be used ironically or non-ironically in many contexts. When someone complains about their bank, send a "Have you heard of Bitcoin?" sticker and it'll make the convo more interesting.

Nah... Tho it's a cool idea, I won't really agree with it. "Have you heard of bitcoin?" would make the person understand that your aim is telling him/her what bitcoin is. On the other hand, "I accept bitcoin" makes the person understand that bitcoin is a means of payment. And also, the person won't know that your main aim is to tell him/her about bitcoin. He/she would definitely ask you what you mean by bitcoin. And then, your pour it all out (remember to tell it's advantage over fiat. And of course, it's disadvantages).

Cool stickers and maybe I can try it. Probably, you can create more stickers that are simpler friendly to the people who still don't know about Bitcoin. It may not only be done by making some words but only by image.

That's actually nice of you, but I can't think of an instance in which I'd use these stickers with my friends.

I also think so, but probably this is also one of the ways to introduce and we can use it to introduce. But of course, a simpler sticker with a more cute image will be more friendly to the people who do not know exactly about BTC.

Hi OP, do you also create the sticker for Telegram?

I agree with this. I know we should raise Bitcoin awareness but I think OP should make some stickers that you can actually use in any situation like the one posted above. Probably a thumbs up with a ₿ logo somewhere for an OK sticker, just an idea.

Anyway, OP did a great move on creating these stickers for awareness. Keep it up!

These look pretty good, definitely a nice way of helping to spread the word in an unobtrusive way.

Do you make these for a living?

Maybe you should get in touch with some exchanges and wallets and see if they would commission some even better ones.

WhatsApp stickers whooah. Superb.
In this way, if you done it free for all without paying you by someone, then it's good way you promote Bitcoin by that way, it is the best and much appreciated.
WhatsApp is big message platform, especially in Chinese countries like China or Hong Kong. I hope your art will be use by someone. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for the support. I hope people don't just use these stickers but create theirs too.

Haha. Thanks a lot man. I don't mind if my work was perfect or almost. The aim is for those who like and don't like the stickers to try creating theirs. I just want us to have the same goal of promoting bitcoin.

No mate, I don't make these for a living. It may be nicely done but I'm not a pro. I'm just doing certain things for the promotion of bitcoin.

I think it's kinda difficult. Because there are some people who are into creating those kinds of stickers or just into graphics artist.
Since creating that kind of art is something you need some skills or knowledge in some software about creating images, if I am not mistaken, something like Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator like software.
But there are still some people who like you, promoting Bitcoin in some different ways, cheer up! You did something great.

That's really a good initiative taken forward to promote the usage of bitcoin. Maybe the step taken by you can reach the whatsapp team and make them create a smiley along with the $, € and other available currency representation. The world is getting more and more dependence over technology, to the same people aren't getting aware about it. Such small changes made to day to day usage application will make people know about it.

It's a great list and I think that's not so hard to adapt to basically anything if somebody has a bit of artistic skills.
And I didn't know it.

No offense OP, but imho social media needs somewhat "less sober" stickers

I have seen your creations for WhatsApp. But I wonder, since I'm not an expert, how do they import into WhatsApp to be used?

You'll have to download an app (link in post). Download the stickers too. Once you've. Done that, go to your file manger, look for the downloaded sticker, open it as of you are opening an image. Open it using the app you downloaded. The Instruction is in the post too.
