I have shared about bitcoin on my class

[AB de Royse777]

I felt lucky when teacher asked me what bitcoin is actually after my presentation, I gave a short answer to them.

Did they use the word (bold) specifically? If yes then you have successfully changed the mind of a doubter. I am pretty sure your teacher heard about bitcoin before your presentation but it was not good thing about it. After hearing about it from you, he started to find the good side about it and hence he emphasized on the word "actually".

Well done!

And you did deceptive marketing yourself for Bitcoin, what a strategy to make people aware of this technology. I hope your colleagues and teachers will bring in more interest in this and ask you more questions like how to buy it and where to buy it from, which will give you the opportunity to earn through your affiliate link from the exchange you refer them to.

I'm having an MBA degree on Marketing. Due to COVID19, we are having classes online. However, we had a term paper submission and presentation on "Deceptive Advertising". I have selected the freebitco advertisement and had presented their Bait and Switch method to attract newbies to have click on their site.
The advertisement is- "Win $200 bitcoin per hour" which I think totally a deceptive advertising. Through this, I was able to give a little hints about bitcoin among my fellow mates and my teacher. I felt lucky when teacher asked me what bitcoin is actually after my presentation, I gave a short answer to them.
This was really great achievement of me, it may not be to you. I feel lucky if I get a chance to talk about bitcoin among my country men.

Even though that phrase was kinda deceptive, it creates curiosity for your students during the online class. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, online classes are now the new normal. It was really clever for you to do that right in front of your online students. It's all about advocacy and awareness of Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology in any way as long it isn't gonna deceive the audience.

Wow man that's really great. Anytime when anybody narrates their incident of how they are spreading bitcoin awareness I feel happy that there are people who believe in bitcoin are doing something about it to other realise. I guess your teacher would not be so tech savvy since he asked you what bitcoin is.
But that's okay. I am really happy you told him about bitcoin. May be he would have done more research on it and may be he would pass that information to more students making a chain. Keep up the good work man.

That's great! You open the door of bitcoin to your teacher and classmates, very good idea to spread the information regarding bitcoin and other cryptocurrency or about cryptocurrency because still a lot of people doesn't know about it. Congrats for what you have done.

I've just realized that this path of telling others about bitcoin is helpful. Social media sites are full of advertisements about bitcoin. Facebook comments are bombarded by people spamming about how one can earn about bitcoin. So it was really helpful for them—even if they are not interested about bitcoin—to understand these scams and fake advertisements. It will keep them safe from it.

It was also a way of telling them that not all people into bitcoin are trying to scam you. You are making them feel safe about the technology. You admit that there are scams, but it can be easily prevented by anyone. You said your prof asked what is bitcoin right. I think it can be the best way, instead of you telling them about bitcoin without even mentioning about the scams.

Asking that question shows that your teacher really wants to know what bitcoin is all about. He/she might have heard it in the past. So many people do not have an understanding of what it is but you jump into the conclusion that it is a scam or an investment scheme. I believe with time the bitcoin will be more discussed in an institution and public places and will change the orientation of the people especially those that have a biased mind towards the crypto and blockchain technology

It happened to me a lot since I have a knowledge about bitcoin sometimes I put bitcoin or cryptocurrency in the topic. And then most of the time my teacher ask me what is bitcoin etc. and then I end up explaining the bitcoin to the whole class. I think a lot of people or even professionals doesn't really have knowledge about bitcoin, bitcoin is not yet ready as an online currency and it is still in the progress of adaptation. A lot of people don't trust bitcoin-like my professor because it is just digital and doesn't have a physical form and he says that you are just investing in something that is imaginary meaning anytime you could lose it. I think he has a point but in my experience on the market supply and demand works.

I sounded like you before, Explaining the concept and bitcoin itself in the whole class, Honestly, it is a very satisfying experience to be sharing my knowledge to others and having many people ask more about bitcoin to me. The only thing that conflicted is the knowledge of my teacher, He really fights me that bitcoin is a scam due to recent news of bitcoin scam that time but I'm relieved that I changed the entire knowledge of my classmates on bitcoin. I don't ask them to believe but I intend to make bitcoin positive for them because of the negative impact on scams on bitcoin at that time. Sharing knowledge about bitcoin and blockchain is awesome!

Totally agree,  Most of the time there is no way you could pursue them into bitcoin because every news about bitcoin are evolving scam also a lot of people in the community don't like digital thing because it is just so easy to lost money online and you don't have control in it, most of the time people who'd go into paper or fiat money because they have the assurance in it and it is produced by the government, etc.

What needed here is to continue the bitcoin adoption when bitcoin is already popular and a lot of people is gonna get a chance to try it, when they already have experience in it they will finally going to understand bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

[panganib999]

If I would also be having the same chance of sharing my knowledge about Bitcoin on my class just like what the OP have achieved, then it would be a great pleasure on my part because in some sense I would act like a voice or representative to present Bitcoin into those people who have not known anything about Bitcoin yet and be an eye opener for them to further understand what Bitcoin really is apart from the things they are hearing around which most likely are against the reality about Bitcoin.

I salute the OP for making such spot light on sharing about Bitcoin for it is a small step yet a big action towards better understanding about Bitcoin specially to those who were just new from it.

[coolcoinz]

Congratulations mate! I know a number of people who did presentations on Bitcoin during courses. You can fit it in almost any class if you know the subject well enough.
I just hope it starts being seen more like science than a speculative ponzi scheme or "fake money" by professors. Many of the old people that I had the questionable pleasure to talk about Bitcoin represented the attitude of Warren Buffett.

[svaboda54]

It is really important to share your experience with others. I'm glad people like you are telling others about crypto. This is a really useful activity.

[Ryker1]

Well, keep it up and I hope this perhaps a start for them to adopt cryptocurrency and acquire to their knowledge regarding blockchain technology.
Perhaps you are a great teacher and it seems good if others too you will teach them what you have learned here in our community. --If most of us doing this in our local community, bitcoin adoption for sure will be rapidly surge high because once you have taught 1 student it will connect into her other friends and so on. So the community will enlarge very soon.

[buwaytress]

If there was another word "up to", it would not be deceptive advertising in my opinion. But the sentence above clearly says you can win $200 per hour while you barely have that chance.
Anyway, it's off topic here and I wouldn't go further here.

And that's not false, you *can* win. You likely won't, but every lottery can be won, at tinier chances. Not really off topic as the discussion is whether or not that's deceptive marketing and I agree it is on a certain level. It's a matter of language in the end, the subtleties of "can", "may" and "will" at least;)

[so98nn]

That was smooth move. I hope you got some referrals on your freebitco account through your efforts. 

Sound to me best way but unfortunately not in the classes anymore! Your efforts surely turn one of them into crypto enthusiastic person and they will start from scratch now. May be you should also refer them to the bitcointalk forum if they wish to learn many more things about it.

As we know we have so many things to take from this forum alone. Every question has been already answered here I guess, so if anyone wants to get started then surely give them address to this palace!!

[wack slacker]

You are lucky enough to share a sensitive bitcoin related content. I tried to explain to my colleagues, friends, and family about bitcoin and they envision them as a scam investment they have heard on television. I hope the people I love will understand what bitcoin is and give them more attention. Currently, in our country there is no cryptocurrency regulation, I hope they will be interested in cryptocurrencies soon.

This is a very good and cool way to propagate bitcoin.
Whether or not the 'Win $200 bitcoin per hour' is deceptive or not isn't really the point here. The point is that it provided an avenue for OP to share his thoughts about bitcoin which ultimately helps increase the adoption of bitcoin.
I believe if everyone makes the most of opportunities like this that are presented to us in our everyday life to propagate bitcoin, it would take less years for bitcoin to reach mass adoption.

What you said really have a good point. If we utilize the available tools and methods we could to maximize the opportunity to promote Bitcoin, the community at large, it will be a more prominent driving force. The OP sure did a noticeable way to promote Bitcoin on his own way.

[Yamifoud]

I wish I have the opportunity as yours to tell the whole class as well about crypto space and not just Bitcoin.

OP has that passion and he never thinks in a hard way to teach people around even if it was just ignored but he has noticed that it is effective and sees an interesting story for the listener. I know that not all of us have that sort of enlightenment and courage to waste their time and effort but he has. It depends on you if you tried it and see the results.

Not like they care anyway on what Bitcoin is, they'll just surely shrug it off as a scam and an illegal coin used in the deep web.
That's quite funny of a deceptive advertising actually.
I would write for my own as "Tutorial on how to earn from Bitcoin, double your quarter now"  
But meh. No one cares about crypto in my class.

If you already think about the negative, seeing less effective, it for sure you won't succeed because in the first place, you are already not happy and you are also expecting that no one will listen to you and care about it. If you want to teach and promote crypto into any person, you better change your mindset first and turn it into a positive.

It doesn't seem like she had heard about bitcoin before, may be she had but had no good idea about it. I have tried my level best to present what bitcoin is in reality despite all the fud going around. It would be a good discussion if the class was on any finance related subject.

And that's not false, you *can* win. You likely won't, but every lottery can be won, at tinier chances. Not really off topic as the discussion is whether or not that's deceptive marketing and I agree it is on a certain level. It's a matter of language in the end, the subtleties of "can", "may" and "will" at least;)

The sentence doesn't say you can win rather it says WIN only which clearly indicates a deceptive method to attract noobs.

Does your teacher ask you about what is freebitco? and how bitcoin can be used on casino.. Your teacher might be want to get free bitcoin on freebitco and start to gamble there.. Great effort to show what is bitcoin in front of all your classmate. Spreading about what is bitcoin and help others to understand is a good thing.
