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

[Mahanton]

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.

Sharing is indeed caring to other people specially to those people who are close to us or even with random people that you do encounter on and sharing up things just because you do like
to share the opportunity that you had able to experience or get into the crypto market specially with Bitcoin.I have once told or share up about Bitcoin into my cousins and some friends
some of them did really have some interest and some do just directly tell that it is a scam and i should never invest or put money into it but when the time they saw that im earning
that much then they are now trying to look for me and asking on how its been done.lol

Based on my experience it is not easy to introduce or make ordinary people interested in the crypto world. We have to be really patient and prove the results ourselves because most of them need to see the evidence instead of hearing nonsense. So in addition to giving him knowledge, I also gave him evidence that this btc will provide benefits if we can manage it well because we are the ones in control of our own assets. The good asset management is that we must know the right time to sell or buy btc in the market.

Earlier when I got into Bitcointalk forum I suggested few of my friends about it. None were interested, and later told them atleast buy few bitcoin or a little and hold for the future. By that time myself don't know much big about bitcoin. Believed it and started to give it a promotion. None responded well, and now those friends have started to ask about cryptocurrencies and few have invested into it.

Since I am a proud gamer myself, I endorsed Bitcoin in a lowkey way by introducing my friends a game wherein Bitcoin is involved, if y'all know Axie Infinity, well, something similar like that but this game was years ago, so Bitcoin wasn't on this level yet, they were actually convinced with my words, they gave it a try and are now doing trading and are now trying out Crypto Blade (also a game that has been recently released), anyways, it's really up to your ideas on how you can actually convince your friends on engaging with Bitcoin.

i remember i introduced bitcoin to my friends while playing League of Legends, well not directly bitcoin but this site that you can earn bitcoin. I introduced them to this site and told them that you can use this site to earn a bit of bitcoin. from then on the 4 of use started using this site to earn bitcoin and through that we got involved in cryptocurrency and started day trading on the side while studying.

Introducing people into the crypto world is something I have tried to do, but they end up saying it's a 50 - 50 thing. They prefer what they can see, office they can go to and officials they can ask questions. They feel if they have no one/office to run to, they can't manage it themselves.
But one thing is sure, that who ever gets concerned and convinced  they take the bull by the horn and invest immediately, and people like that are rare amongst my friends, and men of age thinks  it's a scam, and they end up turning it down.
Amongst the people I introduced into bitcoin was a close family relative, who was convinced and joined the system, where we registered in lots of faucet sites and earned bits of bitcoin.

In most of the experiences I've had, my friends are looking for information for me and are interested. they are more my friends than the stock market.
One of the easiest experiences of getting a friend's attention to enter or be interested in bitcoin is our balance on the exchange.
I don't mean to be arrogant, but I think that's what people are most interested in. collect a lot of money in a short time. but I tell them how risky the crypto market is for investment. strangely, they are still interested in entering the market.

[nurilham]

based on my experience, now it's easier to introduce bitcoin to people than it used to be when bitcoin wasn't as excited as it is today. currently bitcoin is booming and it's easier for us to introduce bitcoin to them, at least they must have heard what bitcoin is even though they don't really understand it and our job is to give more understanding about bitcoin. we can talk about the advantages of bitcoin as a profitable investment and also payment, it will make it easier for us to follow the development of this technology.

Before we will need to show them proofs on how to earn like when we will be able to cashout or not, but now there are many living stories that can testify how crypto change their life. The only regret or doubt that they are saying now is if the price will still arise despite the price of BTC now being too high. We still need to emphasize how risky it can be and they need to study it. We don’t really need to convince them its just enough that we offer them pr introduced crypto to them and its benefits. Let them decide for themselves after.

The majority of them are familiar with the name but believed it was a cryptocurrency that could be generated through internet mining and investing for a quick profit. The banking system maintains track of our transactions and costs us a fee when we shop or consume. We deposit money in the bank, and the bank is the only one who knows what happens to it. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is open and transparent; everyone has a ledger, and you can see where your money is and how it is used.

I think it is necessary to be patient and prepared to repeat some things several times. Remember that it is not an easy decision to invest in bitcoin, and they need to be well-informed before they start investing. There is way too much incorrect information on the internet. Show them face to face.

[cheezcarls]

I remember the time that when I promoted Bitcoin the first time on Facebook, I shared my experience in getting a bonus $1.00 for me and my referral by just signing up to Coins.PH mobile wallet. After that, my so-called "mentor" (whom I don't see him as a true mentor) reached out to me on Messenger, criticized and warned me for sharing Bitcoin.

As I understand that he is misinformed on what the real Bitcoin is all about, I stand on my ground and keep sharing about it. Because of that, he unfriended me and spread the word silently to his "team leaders" that I am promoting a scam, and they also started ignoring or unfriended me as well. I've remember those days though.

However, when that old door closes, a new one opens, and that is the beginning of my new journey in gaining new friends.

Since Facebook was my only social media back then, I just share something good about Bitcoin and eventually some of my friends inquired to me on how to get started in buying and trading BTC. And the rest is history. I find my true calling here by being a Bitcoin, crypto and blockchain enthusiast, so I had to go with it despite the disapproval of my "fake friends" back then.

When it comes to repeating then i am really guilty with this on which i do really explain for several times because there are friends of mine which cant really fully understand on whats crypto or bitcoin is all about
and on that time i do really make out some explanation with having some corresponding given links in youtube or videos which would make things a bit easier rather than on telling them on verbal.
You could show off on how great and good on bitcoins existence not only relevant into its use-case but also into its earning opportunity too.

When my friend was leaving this country to study in another country, I showed him my bitcoin account, and then came back a year later, I showed him my bitcoin account. Ironically, there is less money in the account. He laughed at me for a long time because of it. When he comes back this year, I can laugh loudly because there is a lot more money in my account.

[firesurfer]

I will turn Bitcoins into cash and invite them out for a meal. I think that's the best way to convince them to get more exposure to Bitcoin.
Just like when I used Bitcoin for the first time, everything was so strange and difficult, but after a while I liked it. Maybe my friends will like Bitcoin the way I did.

[MIldic1c]

The best way to introduce Bitcoin to a friend is not to explain the mechanism to him, but to let him see your success. When you buy Bitcoin and earn wealth, this is not the most beneficial introduction!

[MaDeidre]

When there is news about Bitcoin on the Internet, my friends will ask me something about Bitcoin. I will also take the initiative to ask some friends when it is better to buy. Because Bitcoin has also made many friends. On a friend’s birthday, I gave a friend Bitcoin as a gift, and another friend did the same.

I see that it is everywhere that if we are going to talk to someone about money, there has to be proof coz it may seem to be scam if there is none. It is also my way and I think it is effective but if I introduced crypto to my friends I am also keeping in their mind the risk they might face. Like you said "good management" because they may blame me if they failed to manage and I do not want to be on that point. Of course our aim here is help them not bring burden so they must understand this thing side by side. They may earn big but they may lose bigger.

Initially I introduced bitcoin to my little friend in 2020, with the basic method from getting it for free, to the details of how to have bitcoin and make it fiat currency
they don't care about my invitation, and they still focus on multi level marketing (MLM), when their MLM stops operating they come to me to learn how to get bitcoin for free, and when they come bitcoin reached 60k $ yesterday and they believe that bitcoin can be got for free like what i did

[Peanutswar]

Bitcoin consist of a lot of benefits we know the possibility to chance to earn because of the market volatility. It's too hard to introduce bitcoin to those people who didn't want to be involved with it. As for now, I see the benefits of the use of the bitcoins are you can withdraw your bitcoin through ATM, all of the transactions are transparent, market volatile, you can use as a payment into different supported establishments. Of course, you want to introduce to your friends this requires your guidance it's better to have a full knowledge too to help them.
