What are some interesting ways you've introduced bitcoin to your friends?

[Quidat]

it's.a shame I can't.introduce.bitcoin to friends around me because they still can't.accept well what the benefits.of bitcoin itself.are. even though they all know that bitcoin is a business.that can.benefit the owner to invest.because bitcoin is.the same.like we keep money somewhere safe and well

Dont force them if they dont want to but for sure they would really be asking you out when cryptocurrency would become a main trend but honestly it isnt really that hard to understand even with just the basics.
Explaining is somewhat an exciting thing to be shared on your friends since you do know on whats the benefit that Bitcoin gives not only on decentralized payment system but also with money earning opportunity.
You would really be expecting that there would be some who would be skeptical that this might be an another scam which is normal because i had encountered lots of those kind of people
and now that they do saw that bitcoin reach out some good value then they are coming back on asking something about it.

I give Bitcoin "Paper Wallets" as gifts for Birthdays and Xmas with the other gifts I give to people. I tell them, if they do not shift those coins to another wallet within a year, then I will take it back and give them the equivalent value in Fiat currencies at the time I gifted it to them. (Many of the friends and family then make some extra effort to learn more about Bitcoin and even more so, if the price has gone up significantly ..since I gifted it to them)

One of my friends received Bitcoin from me and the price doubled within that year, so he shifted the coins to a wallet and then cashed out his gift to Fiat at an exchange for double the price I initially gifted it to him. (He was so impressed with that, that he re-invested 50% back into bitcoins and other Alt coins) 

Wow, ingenious! I guess I should also try that out someday too.
When I was in high school my relatives used to reward me for good excellence, but they gave me the money in USD, which is not the national currency in my country, to make a point that if I exchange now I will lose the opportunity to gain (because there's always inflation in my country and relative value of USD only grows with years).

I suppose it's time to play the same trick on them with Bitcoin

My friend and I like to dance. I can assume to him that the dance club encourages everyone to dance regularly. The scoring rules are formulated, 3 points are added for each visit, and 3 points are deducted for no reason. The changes are recorded by the club’s lead dancer. Year-end points can be exchanged for material rewards.
Members of Bitcoin can be regarded as people in dance clubs. Initially, the points are equivalent to Bitcoin, the number is 0, and the ledger is maintained together. Everyone has the right to keep accounts and will be rewarded. Everyone must work together. Counting a question, who has the priority to answer the question.
My friend found it interesting under my example, and since then he has often discussed Bitcoin-related issues with me.

My friend came into contact with Bitcoin earlier than me. At that time, I was unemployed and at a loss. I have no plans for the future. A friend came to me to chat and listened to him talk about the market trend at that time. I took the initiative to ask him about the Bitcoin network and technology. This is the beauty of it. I often discuss the latest market situation with him. I slowly joined this big family, and then I told my other friends about my wonderful experience of using Bitcoin. They are also fascinated. I think all things can only be experienced through personal experience.

In addition to telling the development of its popularity so that the price tends to increase, of course it will be even more interesting that bitcoin can also be searched like working normally online, and of course by sharing evidence as well as what I've been doing so far. Bitcoin is like an opportunity for mankind as a positive income booster.

I think one of the most interesting way  I had managed to bring my friends to know and use bitcoin is when I told them of how much I've earned with bitcoin.
I realise that's one of the most effective means of evangelising bitcoin when they know how much you've earned with it.
I realise it is more easy to convince someone to use bitcoin when you have something to show for it. When you can prove to them how much they've missed not using bitcoin, they'd be more willing to accept it

Showing how much profit we managed to get from Bitcoin can be interesting for our friends. Because actually humans are very interested in money,
and if we can show Bitcoin can make a lot of money. That I think is the most interesting and effective way to get our friends interested in Bitcoin.
I showed several times the profit I made from Bitcoin, it made my friends curious and wanted to know more about Bitcoin. Another thing we can do
to introduce Bitcoin to our friends is by telling the advantages of Bitcoin compared to other assets.

This is also my most proven way of introducing Bitcoin to anyone I know, which had resulted in getting their attention and interest as well. Especially during this pandemic where everyone is struggling financially, and many have lost their jobs. Upon showing them what opportunities there is with crypto, they saw the hope and excitement when I showed the benefits of it.

Although showing the profit that we make from Bitcoin is a proven effective way of introducing Bitcoin. Still we must be able to guide our friends
to learn to understand how Bitcoin works and don't let our friends learn on their own. Those of people who are inexperienced will definitely
make mistakes and will blame us when he fails to make a profit. I have always been a mentor to some of my newbie friends, so they don't make
the wrong decision when they are interested investing in Bitcoin.

Any friends that asked you a short time after on how to sell them off?

It'd be quite funny (and sad) if that happened during the crash .

I believe in practical ways of doing things because 'see is believing' I had shown some of students my online blockchain wallet with some Bitcoin I was hodling, interestingly some of them became captivated instantly invariablyI had already helped few of them to open online wallets connected their andriod app also helped a few of them to buy Bitcoin into their wallet respectively honestly and funny enough all of them are still hodling their coins despite the price decline experienced presently in the crypto market they believed in hodling having educated them about it benefits.

I will introduce bitcoin to my friends by sharing successful bitcoin stories. If you buy bitcoin there is a possibility of high return of investment. It is not a short-term investment. This will also become his/her savings in the long run. You will still guide them on how bitcoin works.

[randegibran]

in.this case.it is.very difficult to introduce.bitcoin to people around, first they do not understand what is.called bitcoin itself.and they do not understand what bitcoin really is.and they only know what bitcoin is.while they do not understand what bitcoin is.is a crypto business.that is very useful and long-term, we will also provide an.in-depth understanding of bitcoin and how it.actually works.so that we can.easily.approach them.to provide a good understanding of bitcoin

[michellee]

Maybe the way we can introduce bitcoin to them is to invite them to see how we use bitcoin. If we often trade or invest (just buy low and sell high), we can show them directly and ask them to install an app on their mobile phone.

In this example, I use Binance and I tell them to just buy and hold for a month until three months. But I advise them to buy for small amounts such as $10 every week to have some amount of bitcoin in their wallet. While they did that, they will see the price is up and down and if they ask me when they could sell bitcoin, I will answer just sell whenever you see the profit.

Introducing bitcoin to friends for the first time is quite difficult especially if we introduce it to someone who is not familiar with internet or online payment system. I tried to introduce bitcoin to my friends with giveaway or tell them that there is a chance to earn money from the internet for free. It was the time when there were so many faucet sites.

This method works because who are in this world who do not want to earn money for free? I just told them to do the faucet and collect it into an online wallet although they did not really know how to use bitcoin (sell/buy) it. Slowly but sure, they learn by themselves by doing their own reading of some articles that they can find in the internet.

Honestly, when Ive introduced bitcoin to my friends, the first impression was its a scam networking thing. They dont even believe that I am acquiring profits by investing into this and warn me to stay away from bitcoin. Not until they saw some proofs like items, properties that Ive bought because of bitcoin's profit investment, they suddenly bevame interested and ask me anything about how it works.

Now, we are all traders and investors , sharing all our knowledge and giving out informations, spreading it with others to share how great this technology is.

[willhuber]

To be honest, I have never introduced Bitcoin to any of my friends. Instead, one of my friends introduced Bitcoin to me when I was not even aware of what it actually was.

[Kong Hey Pakboy]

To be honest, I have never introduced Bitcoin to any of my friends. Instead, one of my friends introduced Bitcoin to me when I was not even aware of what it actually was.

You are one lucky person then because some people that don't know about bitcoin don't exactly know it since the people who knows about bitcoin doesn't want people to know about it. I don't have that interesting story how I got into bitcoin, probably it's just the same as you.

I want to use the Olympics as a stimulating introduction. The Olympic Foundation was established at the Bitcoin Forum, and the foundation established a separate account. Everyone actively donated Bitcoin, with no limit.

We vote for athletes participating in the Olympics, and we judge our own champions based on the number of votes. The Olympic spirit has no borders. All athletes participating in the Olympics are champions in our minds.

The Bitcoin Austrian Foundation will give us a certain number of Bitcoins for the world champions voted by us.

I think this is a very good idea and interesting. It will make more people understand Bitcoin and be impressed.

[haasanjui]

I introduce it to my friends by telling them it is modern world there is new currency is introduced. And Bitcoin is best coin for invest and Trade it to earn money. And i will tell them that it will be a source of payment in future Tesla is example of this success of Bitcoin. and it can be a benificial for us it is time to invest and trade it.

[roosbit]

I have introduced people to bitcoin through having argument of how one can make money online. With so many people trying to pull all sorts of scams on the internet my pals didn't believe there was a genuine way to make money online hence I introduced them to bitcoin through faucets which existed a few years ago, And we did make a few coins off it ,not sure if we still have them today.

Then I have other friends who complained of delayed receipts of funds to reflect on their bank accounts but had an option to withdraw through bitcoin, I recommended this to be their solution and they have not gone back after knowing about crypto, its bitcoin all the way.

Actually if i can write it here in my native language then it would better but lots of people can't understand. Because if i write only English then they will understand. But my English is not fluent. But if i introduced bitcoin to my friends then it will be like that:

I have my own bank called decentralized wallet. I can use it how i want to know one can know about who am i. And how much money i have. Do you know i am a part of world most extraordinary technology. And i am also a share of that company.  And my government also don't know about it. And you know what it is world most secrets thing what government do not want. I will mention secret because if we use secret word in our friendship gossip then they show much interest on it. But all i say is legit not a wrong word i mention in this.. Then another thing is you have full freedom with your money in bitcoin. Not only that our normal stock market gives how much return in 10 years. You know what bitcoin gives highest $0.01 to $65k. So whi knows in upcoming 10 years where it would be gone. If you do not want to late then come and see if you like then you can do anything what your heart say. But i guranteed you will love this technology.


In my native language its sound should be different. Because now i am 20 and our friends are same age. So our every topic Should sound  funny but it also has a weight of seriousness too. When we started serious talk.

I introduced a website marketplace that sells virtual goods to my friends. Incidentally, I am very interested in the website because the payment method can be done in many ways and one of them is cryptocurrency.
Shoppy.gg and Shellix accept payments using BTC, ETH and LTC. When my friend was in trouble about his credit card, I introduced him to LTC to make payments at a lower fee, even almost zero.
He became interested in Bitcoin and Altcoins after knowing LTC as a payment tool that is ideal to use to meet his digital needs.
In addition, I also often buy my friends T-shirts that say Bitcoin to make them want to know Bitcoin more deeply. I bought the shirt from the results of my Bitcoin business by setting aside 5% - 10% income every month.
