It looks fun to do that but you must have pushed him away even more with what you did. Do you still talk about anything other than bitcoin?
When I think about my perception about bitcoin before, I'm not that different from "that guy". I was involved in other investment vehicle before and thought less about bitcoin when I first heard about it.

When the price was crashing, I remember telling my friends to buy as much as they could(also told them the risks involved). No one listened to me. Back then, Ether was somewhere around $100. About 2 months ago, my sibling called and told me he just bought 1 ether(At about $500). Not too bad for him. BTW, as I usually say, bitcoin isn't about the price, it's about the currency.

Usually people who think negatively about Bitcoin have no knowledge of Bitcoin. And it's impossible for everyone to like Bitcoin, there will always be someone who hates Bitcoin. I've also come across people who are very negative about Bitcoin. I've never argued with Bitcoin haters, I just ignored them. Because it would only be a waste of time dealing with Bitcoin haters, better use our time for something more positive.

It is happening, again and again and again. At the beginning of the 2017 I told my colleagues buy at least 5BTC and at the end of this year you can buy a very good brand new car for that. No one listen. They are said it is a scam, bubble, MLM, it is a thin air and so on. So I am told them ok, so you can invest in AMD and TESLA shares which are cheap and in few years will fly. And gues what? No one listen to me...

When I'm right I always like to shove it in my opponent's face. There's nothing more satisfying than the good old I told you! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I have a friend who is always reluctant to buy. He has some money on the side and his trading strategy is like this: -wait for Bitcoin to be in a strong uptrend. -Buy -wait for it to reach about 10% profit -sell -watch it go up more -regret selling every day and tell friends how you made a mistake. He's been at it for years and this year he again bought at 12 thousand and sold somewhere around 14. I've been telling him for at least 5 years to buy and hold.

As you said, the best strategy (if you are not a daytrader) is just buy and forgot about that 5-10years. I am always smiling on the guys which are told me that they are loosing money, that they bought for 10k and now it is 3k. But they are not understand, that they are not loosing anything, they had the same 1BTC like before. They will only lose it when they are sell it for fiat lower then they bought it...

The potential for people's trust depends on the situation. I think people will believe bitcoin more if you introduce it to them when the price is so high. Because what they will first ask is about profit, "so, how much profit are you getting at this time?".
When the market is sluggish, you will have no supporting answers to make people believe even if it is a good opportunity to start.

however, i think that sometimes it is good to remind other people of the idiocy of these people and how FUD works. for example recently someone bumped a topic in speculation board which i liked because it was a good reminder about how they operate during any kind of dip. and that has educational merit. I went through that link you have here and it looked like some of the posters there did not understand well what bitcoin is. I read coments from legendary members and was disappointed they talked so much ill about bitcoin. I wish we can find out what they have to say now that bitcoin did not die according to their prophecy.

Some times it's better one research first before commenting on things you don't understand or better keep quiet. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Unfortunately, people don't do that. We're just too quick to say something but of course this is because they are likely trying to win an argument or misinformed. It will really be funny how he will react after remended by what he said that turned out to be wrong. But there are just bold people still, Jaime Dimon was one of these people back in the day but now, he is just one of the people who joined forgets about his claims.

That's the best reply to a silly people who don't know about the actual position of bitcoin and gives trash statement like this. There is also few people who sell their coins while a correction happens to crypto market. They get panic and think that bitcoin going to die. Time always show them what bitcoin is and how far it can reach.

I wish we can find out what they have to say now that bitcoin did not die according to their prophecy. Since it's only speculation so they can give any opinions they want even it's from newbie or legendary members. Who knows which is real supporters of Bitcoin who's not ,you should also need to considered all their emotion the day that topic is posted most of the investors that time lost a lot, thats why they lost the confidence of trusting Bitcoin because of bad experience they experience that time so don't just be so angry with them if they give bad opinion.

A few months back, when BTC dumped to nearly $3200 (or it is $3800) at the beginning of the corona outbreak, a guy from my local who is now living in UK had posted in his facebook that "This is the end of bitcoin. I knew it has to be someday, there it is." I had nothing to say other than asking him to do his homework before doing such speculation. Well, I just have remembered that post and spent a few minutes to find that post and poked him the screenshot of 1 BTC equals to $16602. Guess his feeling now ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) How about now? Its 17550 as of this writing on Preev.com. Asking out on what would be his feeling at the moment? and that would really be that regret on missing out that he hadnt accumulate wayback when bitcoin was still on 3k value.Well people cant really avoid to give out those emotional kind of reaction when everything is on deep reds.Even myself can say in bitcoin that time where i do even believe that it will go below down 1k which is understandable that fear will really be overcoming on us but for those who do take the risk then those people who would really be making money at the moment. I havent poked up someone but i have seen lots of them saying that bitcoin is dead on that time and when bitcoin did hit 10k then they do changed up their minds and how much more that we are almost hitting that 20k ATH?

Guess his feeling now ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The revenge ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I guess a lot of people just lost it when the market price just continues to go dump in the market and immediately thinks that the bitcoin is dead at that moment. When the market price is dumped around 3000$ ,the investors have a really good opportunity to invest in bitcoin so we could already expect for the market price of bitcoin to pump in the coming months or years. But I guess it's normal for people without enough experience and it's really hard to hold your investment if you don't have your own funds or it's an emergency. What I do is always investing when the market price is a dump and sell a small percentage when the market price keeps on pumping. I do not really lose a profit since I buy at a low price and sell it at a higher price.

We will always have those type of people around that dont have bitcoin but always looking for the down fall of it. The type of person I want to be wont care about whatever happens to the price and keep it as long as possible without any worry ; having enough money in the bank to buy bitcoin in the dip and extra fund large enough for retirement. These are times you dont check the chat daily and care about what anyone says

Clearly not every person put their trust with their real money. It's indeed extremely difficult task to convince that other have influenced by your words and purchase bitcoin. I attempt to instruct individuals however never prescribes to them how to really manage their real money.The vast majority of us used to panic sold when the price dropped.

Anyone who denies Bitcoin can be called uneducated people. You can only feel sorry for them, but you should never argue with such idiots. Time will always put everything in its place. There is always a person who will say: "But I told you so." A good proverb says: "The dog bark, but the caravan goes on." Bitcoin doesn't need any criticism, it has lived and will live its own life. Yes, it is volatile, yes, its price is different, but otherwise, it would be a different coin. Only those who believe in Bitcoin are worthy and own it. Well, those who splutter with hatred, let them continue to stand still, wasting time and not trying to become more literate and educated in the field of cryptocurrencies.

Well, I know a lot of people who only supports and shill bitcoin when it is bullish, but spills out FUD when it is bearish. I had never been negative about crypto even if it had crashed many times. I took it as a way to invest due to the cheaper price, instead of creating FUD. If crypto will die just because of a sudden crash, it could've ended a few years when it started where the price had been a roller coaster ride.

For every time we poked any Bitcoin dissident, we cause them great regret for missing out. And that is good. But for their ego, most of them won't admit their regret. You can imagine someone who had loose $10,000 in February-March this year and didn't buy Bitcoin which could've fetched them around 3BTC. Now 3btc is worth over $53,000 for one Bitcoin is now $17, 815 as I type this. What a life of regret for your friend. I hope you screenshot the current price to them.

It seems like a lot of people like him said this even people I know have said and predicted that Bitcoin will end and die at that point, I just listened with a small smile for him and I told him that this is not the end of Bitcoin, because it is a downward trend in price , because I was sure that everything would return to normal and would give a big bubble to the Bitcoin price, he just kept quiet and didn't say anything and then walked away. Maybe now that he knows the price of Bitcoin now, I offended him a little by making a status via social media saying, if you are not good at judging Bitcoin prices, never say Bitcoin is over, and Bitcoin has spread its wings to fly high to the moon.

Crypto is for folks who are in it for a long term and that is the reason why people are always encouraged to invest in top crypto. However, if you are part of the person that buy bitcoin around 20k that year and you saw your portfolio drop down to 3.2k per bitcoin, you will also feel devastated and you wanna quite. What do you think will be in mind of that guy to bought pizza with huge amount of bitcoin that year. I guess any day he sees bitcoin trending and check the price, I will always feel sad for the mistake he had done. That is irony about life.
