I started off Bitcoin years ago, my family never believed it and said it was all a scam and I should stop (of course I didn't), when Bitcoin was making progress over the years, the influence on people starts to get stronger as time goes by, more and more are starting to believe that there is a thing called "Cryptocurrency".
From telling me to not do Bitcoin because I'm just wasting time to "son, can you teach me your knowledge about Bitcoin?", this is where I realized that Bitcoin is definitely the future to be, to see is to believe and they started to believe me, they did because they saw the value going higher and higher each year, 2020 was the year Bitcoin's value exploded to $20,000 and this was the year that they are convinced that Bitcoin is real, they were so down thinking that it's too late for them, but it really isn't and they can definitely keep up, I hope your family is convinced as well that Bitcoin is real by now and not a joke, I've opened their minds and I hope you can open your friends, or the people that matter to you, because it can definitely help them.
Well, this world we find ourselves, people are always sceptical about things they either have no knowledge or little knowledge about. But, once you present them will concrete evidence being either your financial success or something tangible, they become believers. A lot of people believe Bitcoin is a scam due to what the media has preached to them. I believe once the media portray the true identity of Bitcoin, people will have a different perception of what Bitcoin is and its purpose in the financial ecosystem.
