How do you spread BTC to people within you

[Frengki_cisco]

Hello all,

As a lover of Bitcoin how do you spread Bitcoin, i mean how do you tell people about Bitcoin and it's adoptions?

The world is now sophisticated with internet facilities and google searches, anything people can know including Bitcoin adoption and news about Bitcoin, easy for people to know.

I will briefly tell them verbally, but if it's about Bitcoin that I don't know I will tell them to open the internet.

Spreading the word about bitcoins over the years was hard work. It took many long conversations with my parents to convince them that investing in crypto is not a lost cause and I will not lose all my money. Unfortunately my parents are too old to invest in bitcoins themselves. At their age they need all their money in cash or money market funds, because sudden medical bills or moving into a retirement home would cost a lot of money. My cousin I got very excited about cryptos, every time I see him we talk about it. He is still in school and has no real money to invest himself, but for his birthday this year I will give him a wallet with sie Satoshi. Among my friends everybody knows about bitcoins, and some even invested themselves. But the majority still hold stocks as their main investment. Maybe over time I can convince them to switch more into cryptos.

Convincing parents is a hard thing, plus my parents literally have no money at all, they are in huge debt, around 4k dollars which is a huge amount in my nation considering the minimum wage is under 300 bucks, so we do not even earn 10 bucks a day and they have over 4k dollars in debt.

I knew this and I knew that I couldn't trust them when it came to investing, so when I started my own life after I got married and moved away from them, I started to put some part of my salary into investment and I didn't want to end up with them.

At 60+ years old, they can't even live a decent life, can't get out of house, and even at their boring life they are still growing their debt, I do not want to end up like them so I keep on investing. I keep saying that this should be exact reason to invest into crypto, to make sure that you are not poor at 60+ years old.

I don't understand people who promote bitcoin at the expense of other people. Especially with older parents. In addition to the fact that adult children should not depend on their parents at all, but, on the contrary, help them, I see conversations to attract investment with parental money.
Looks very childish. To experience all the benefits of bitcoins, you need to invest your own money earned on your own. And only then conclude how much you can lose and how much you can win.

I am not really that much of a social person. But when I see the need to tell people about bitcoin I do that. So far I’ve been able to talk to a lot of my friends about bitcoin and how they can go about investing in it and also setting up their own wallet. Although not all of them do take interest in it but I don’t really go as far as forcing them into it.

What I simply do is just to talk to them about it and it’s up to them on whether they’re interested in it or not .And those who are interested, they would always get back to me to ask about it, so that I can further teach them and help them get into it.

You may want to help your parents in multiple different ways. If you imagine that I do not, that is on you and I have no obligation to provide any proof that I do help. However, the need to tell them to buy bitcoin so that they could be richer when they are even older should be understandable thing.

I am not saying that we shouldn't help them ourselves with our own money, but at the same time we may want to help them with their money as well. I am not expecting them to get into bitcoin so I could get rich, I am hoping that they get into bitcoin so THEY could get rich. Who wouldn't want their parents to live a wealthy life? Even if I see zero dollars from it, I would be so happy to see them become rich one day.

I had plans for this year to spread more about bitcoin. But I have it on pause because my circle of friends have little purchasing power, I live in a country with inflation and if I mention bitcoin right now that there is a lot of volatility, my power of persuasion will not be successful.
Only if I reach people who want to invest in the long term are the best options.
But I strongly agree with OP that we need to share with our friends about bitcoin.

same here, if only the person asks me about it, that's when I will talk. otherwise, i keep mum about it. because i had experienced before of giving some pointers on crypto, but then, the person seemed to be offended or something, as i just pointed out where she is about to make mistake on her investments as i've been in that situation already. so after that, i stopped talking to her all about crypto. it is her choice when it comes to investments. sometimes people don't want to hear about their possible shortcomings.

When trying to engage some argumentation on someone who do make out some false claims about crypto then you would really be normally be having those reactions which i would definitely do the same.
Im also a silent type of person where i do also answer out when someone do ask but opening something on other people or be the one who first to talk then its not my genre on doing so.
Let alone the internet and other means of ads or something do people to be aware of crypto existence and would made out their own research if they are really that curious.

Hello all,

As a lover of Bitcoin how do you spread Bitcoin, i mean how do you tell people about Bitcoin and it's adoptions?
To me i have held many discussions with friends in college with me, sometimes teaching them blockchain, the future of Bitcoin and why we should buy and hold Bitcoin, how the world will be in 5 years to 10 years to come. With this little meetings i have been able to share with my friends and also spread bitcoin to mates in college and i know they will do the same and if everyone does the same tell me what will be of Bitcoin today. So let us support Bitcoin max Adoption by telling people arounds us, bitcoin remains the future of money.

I support you, I hope you continue to be passionate about spreading hands-on education about blockchain and bitcoin...

Since I was rejected several times by my friends in the past, I don't want to tell them anymore about Bitcoin, blockchain technology and altcoins, to me they will just waste my time. I only focus on telling about bitcoin to people who really have great enthusiasm for it (usually with coffee together).

[nurilham]

Actually not everyone is willing and able to accept Bitcoin so I think I prefer to spread Bitcoin to people who are really interested in Bitcoin itself. What I know is that apart from making Bitcoin profitable, it also has a risk where not everyone is able to accept it, so by telling people who are interested to know the world of Bitcoin, they must consciously accept the risks without any coercion in them. Personally, in spreading Bitcoins I usually do it in a simple way and with small talk so that it is easier to accept that it can flow by itself. Entering the world of Bitcoin is my own conscience and I do it sincerely, so if there are people who are really interested in the world of crypto as much as possible I will help provide enlightenment.

[rahmad2nd]

I have stop explain what is bitcoin to several people because is not worth and have big risk when they try investing on higher price, few days later price drop and they can't hold and make us fault about recommended him to buy bitcoin. Keep try to give with simple words about bitcoin is have risk when to be investor there, not always promise with profitable but also you can loss when investing or trading on bitcoin when use wrong way.

If you want to spread bitcoin awareness, there is no better measure or rule on how to best share the knowledge but please don't advice someone who is financially imbalance to invest in bitcoin especially the ones that have been hearing but don't know how it work and how it has performed in the past. I have a friend who motivated a friend to buy bitcoin and teach him some basics out of pity that the person wasn't okay financially but made mistake of buying at the top, now the new guy is the type that wanted to yield something quick as he had heard how bitcoin has been changing life's, it took grace to convince that guy not to sell, he is still holding as I sometimes view the wallet address time to time.

I have a friend who teach in a high school and when I'm less busy, I go to his place of work and anytime I see him teaching in his class, I used that opportunity to give his students some basic things about Bitcoin, not to buy bitcoin for now but to show them the economical aspects of Bitcoin and it importance. I don't want them to finish school with hope of relying on bank cards and government to approve a payment before they can spend. The class was interactive and I am impressed with their questions and some quiz responses, that's my way of teaching bitcoins, they will one way influence others including there parents one day.

Well I keep saying that he wasn't thought how to read his candles or when to buy or sell. As mentor or a teacher first is to teach your students the basic principles that will guide them properly to avoid taking the wrong decision or making wrong moves.
Saying of telling people to buy; I don't force people to buy but I gave them some illustration of the candle and many other things from the starting of the thread which you could see for yourself. I know the risk involved so I wouldn't like someone to start banging on me so.. Is more or less of a choice between my colleague in college.

It will be more better if you can give free bitcoins to the people that attend your meeting, in that way they will get motivated to attend your future meetings. Not only that but it also gives them a chance to try it immediately and you should not force them to hodl that bitcoin but it's up to them if they will sell it now or not.

Many of us also don't care of the technology behind bitcoin and we always sell our bitcoins during the time that we are still new to it but eventually that mindset changed and we now hodl every inch of btc that we acquire. We spend even the tiniest amount of money that we have in our pocket only to get bitcoin because we now know that btc value's grows overtime.

I've also stopped explaining things about Bitcoin to my friends and relatives because I noticed that I was just defending Bitcoin everytime its price drops which is actually part of its volatility. Some people has the wrong mindset towards Bitcoin as a currency and they only see it as a shortcut to success and they're disregarding its risks. I would just let them regret things when more Bitcoin adoptions happen in the future and when Bitcoin boomed again.

In the past there were more bitcoin faucets. Those faucets made more people get into cryptocurrency even when they hadn't got much of technical knowledge about cryptocurrencies. Now those faucets weren't available anymore as the market has grown big along with much increased price. For now spreading is happening out of advertising.

As an individual myself used to spread the word about bitcoin whenever there arises some conversation associated with bitcoin. Even now when there arises talks about bitcoin people used to mention it a scam. I used to clear them briefing it's existence and the ongoing adoption. Yesterday there arose a conversation in which my friend talked about dogecoin and said it will reach $30. I cleared him with the details and why it won't reach $30. This way conversations makes me spread bitcoin.

As a lover of Bitcoin how do you spread Bitcoin, i mean how do you tell people about Bitcoin and it's adoptions?

"My old motorbike"
Make them confused and let them show interest by putting a logo/sticker of Bitcoin on any of my stuff (on my motorbike, dress, and even my workbooks), when they ask, I simply answered the basic information about Bitcoin and give them a link to study it.  Let them know the possible risk and understand it how the system works not the way how they make a profit on it.

Bitcoin is already mainstream, there's no need to convince anyone to believe you regarding Bitcoin but for those who are willing to listen and understand what it's about, I'm willing to spare my precious time to share my knowledge with them.

Wow Excellent Thinking like that will encourage all the young generation.I always support this kind of thinking. Let's all do something better By distributing it among everyone. So that the young generation can contribute something good to this cryptocurrency.

It depends on who the person next to you is, and whether they really believe and care about what you say and share.  Not everyone will be interested and convinced by the bitcoin story.  As for me, I will share bitcoins with my wife, close friends, family.  Every human has relationships, they can also spread the best they know/use or invest in bitcoin to share with others.  That's how bitcoin evolved

We must spread the word about Bitcoin to the right people, especially they are not technologically savvy and have prior investment knowledge, so that our information is a guide for the right investment. Of course, we must also inform the impact of losses on volatile markets.

There was a time in which I actually tried to explain to people why bitcoin was such a game-changer but that is not the case anymore, and the reason is simple, most people do not really care about bitcoin at all and they just want a way to make some quick money and nothing more.

So they do not really ask questions about bitcoin but questions about how to make money with bitcoin, which is a significant difference, so with this in mind I stopped taking about bitcoin to people because if you give them an advice and then they happen to lose money while following it they will blame you for it, even if it was their decision to ask and then follow your advice on the first place.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Now it's easier, before I used to get worn out when I talked to people about BTC that they should go in and buy, that they realize that it is a technology with a totally deflationary economy, but later they didn't pay attention to me, the truth was that there were very few who they followed the advice, but now as the situation of the pandemic, of the jobs that people can't find, those who spoke to them have commented to me about it again, after a while they became more interested, so some currently yes They have bought a little btc, and they have also reminded me that the price has dropped and others, however I clarify that the best for now is hodl..
