How to convince a sceptical person to buy Bitcoin ?

[nullama]

~snip~
I think that trying to convince anyone who is skeptical is a bad idea. They would see the attempt of someone trying to convince them of something, especially something which has to do with them investing money, as a an attempt at scamming them somehow.

No matter how well-structured and logical your arguments are, some people push back harder the more you try to convince them.

I believe the best method of dealing with those kinds of people is to just show them your positive history with Bitcoin. Show them proof of how Bitcoin has helped you. Especially show them your return on investment (ROI).

No better way to convince someone than to show them hard proof.

Yeah, I think simply showing someone the graphs of currencies worth in the last 10 or 20 years should be enough for them to realize how much fiat is losing its value year by year.

The thing is that because inflation moves slowly usually, people don't realize this. It's only in periods of hyperinflation where this is evident.

To convince a skeptical person to buy bitcoin is not proper because if he is skeptical his mind is closed in any argument. If a person shows interest in investing Bitcoin he himself will do his own research and study the flow of investing in Bitcoin. Investing Bitcoin is for the people who are open minded who are ready to take risk in investing. I am sure the skeptical persons would regret it if they had found out how much profit they had missed if they had invested earlier.

Just show the doubters how BTC went up in price every year (well, some years it went down). Let them compare the difference in high/low prices between 2009 and last year.

It's not easy to convince person to buy Bitcoin. Some people not believe in bitcoin and some are not interested to buy Bitcoin. Don't force people to invest in bitcoin if they are interested they search on their own to have more knowledge about it.
Other people think bitcoin is a scam. Do your own invest in bitcoin don't think for other people let them study the bitcoin so that they can get a better idea on it.

You can simply tell him Bitcoin has some advantages like being decentralized, and limited supply which makes it an attractive long term investment for some.  In addition, sending Bitcoins is very easy and fast, and does not require a third party to send them.

However, it is important not to try to convince everyone to invest in Bitcoin.  Everyone should make their own investment decision once you have provided this information.  Because convincing people to invest in Bitcoin or other coins is not an easy thing, and must depend on the situation and condition of him that we want to convince.

If he shows an interest of his own in Bitcoin, then guide him and provide accurate information about the technology behind it and how to spend and send it.

It is very difficult to convince him, it has happened to me with many friends, and the truth is not pleasant at all, because listening to their opinions and the reasons why they do not buy bitcoin is something that seems to me to be under-argued according to their knowledge, they only repeat what they say in the news and in articles that have no value, I think that if they speak according to what an economist thinks it would be something more Serious and credible for a debate,but it is not the idea, the easiest way is going back to basics, saying that bitcoin is money, that it is easier to have bitcoin than to have money in a bank, because money grows faster in bitcoin than in a bank.

Although within this community Bitcoin is practically the only currency in which everyone believes, just look around a bit and we will find thousands of people who think otherwise.
At this point I wonder, what reasons should we give these people to make them realise that Bitcoin is a right choice? The first argument that comes to mind to convince a person who is sceptical about Bitcoin, is first of all that with Bitcoin you no longer need to delegate the custody of your money to a third party (banks, mutual funds, etc.): you are the master and you hold them. What else would you add?

You shouldn't do that. If a person is skeptical towards Bitcoin, he doesn't deserve it. For years I've tried to persuade people to buy Bitcoin but failed every single time. Let go, you can't do that. Everything will come in due time, it means you're too early and their time has not come yet. Most of them will buy but much later and at a much higher price.

I have given up that on long time when we do speak on telling someone about Bitcoin or cryptocurrency benefits and its usage which of course they would really be that skeptical on first approach. Most of them would really be that skeptical and raising up some question about this and that and on the time that you would be answering them on best as possible, they would be still ending up on negative and the worst on the time that
they would be making out some investment and if it losses or in reds then you are the ones who would really be that to be blamed on what happen and thats a shit feeling that i cant really be able to accept. lol

This is why i never had that kind of consideration on teaching up someone unless if they would be approaching to me and asking about it or simply having that curiosity which i might consider but offering that free lesson or teaching about it then i wont really be doing such thing.Its better that they are the ones who would really be able to realize on what they should gonna do. They would really be indeed that late
if ever that thing happens.

I think it can be argued that if someone has gold, he is always afraid that thieves might steal his gold but if he has bitcoins instead of gold, he won't have any risk of teal bitcoins until you provide phrase to someone be because Bitcoin posses no physical state

If one is traveling from one place to another even if he travels from one country to another, he can withdraw and sell bitcoins from his wallet anywhere, anytime, through his password. bitcoin has no apparent volume, no one knows how many bitcoins you have,and no one will know the complete information of your assets which is very necessary to be safe from eyes of world

Investing in Bitcoin is a personal decision that each individual must make for themselves. It's important to do your own research and understand the risks and benefits of investing in Bitcoin. This means considering factors such as how much money you can afford to invest,. your financial goals, and your personal circumstances.
Before investing in Bitcoin, it's important to understand that it can be a very volatile asset, meaning that its value can fluctuate rapidly and significantly. This can present risks as well as potential rewards. Therefore, it's important to weigh these risks and rewards and make an informed decision that aligns with your financial goals and situation.
Overall, it's important to do your own research, understand the potential risks and benefits of investing in Bitcoin, and make a decision that aligns with your own financial goals and circumstances,. I Think!

Instead of trying to persuade, tell him what convenience bitcoin has brought to your life. Then it will watch what you are already doing. In time, he will find himself in the crypto world. If you have to say something, tell him that things that were not valued in society at the time may one day reach their true value. You shouldn't have to persuade, though. After a while, he will be convinced himself. I don't know how many years this will take, but of course that day will come. Bitcoin will be a value used all over the world. Some discover things sooner and take advantage.

Don’t force anyone to buy bitcoin without their complete knowledge.After the decade of usage of the bitcoin,still people are not ready to accept bitcoin as the regular currency.This is the fact of the few people and not the all.Many of my friends had their holding in bitcoin for the next year pump,after the first quarter of 2024 we can able to know exact rise in bitcoin price.Many people think holding in bank is the safest one.But it’s not the best one,because the profit from the bitcoin is 10 times of the market interest from the bank.So most of the people think about the bitcoin as compared to the other coins.

At first I use to think this way, about ways I can use to convince people about bitcoin and why they should start making use of the digital technology, haven understood and benefiting from the currency myself. But I found out humans are hard to deal with for what they didn't on their own volition gained interest.

Some person's can attest to how they were later accused by those they convinced of investing in bitcoin and the market didn't go well as it was explained to them maybe because a dip happened after they invested.  Now you never explained this part to the new person when you were trying to convince them.

 There's no better way than to allow your success speak for you stead of spending energy trying to convince people about bitcoin. Why not divert that energy on ways to increasing your success.

I agree with you. We don't need to force anyone to invest in Bitcoin, it is a personal choice. If there are some people who never realize Bitcoin potential as a good investment, just ignore them. Investing in Bitcoin isn't for everyone, only people who believe in Bitcoin deserve to invest in it. I have some skeptical people around my home, I never think to convince them because it seems impossible.

Sure, Bitcoin potential profits are much better than Bank profits. The volatility in Bitcoin price that can make us to get huge profits.

Different people's perspectives differ from the reality of bitcoin events, additionally we must use caution at all times. Ignorant individuals worry me out, therefore I've saved my strength for the forthcoming bull market. It is critical that we understand when to enter the market, particularly with solid entrances. Convincing my friend to buy my digital currency is no longer possible; he has already been moved driven by my market rewards. There's no time to buy more coins because the bull season is just around the horizon; I'm not sure when it will begin, but I sensed it and it's obvious.

Why do you have to do that?
Trying to convince someone over something that the person did not want isn't right most especially when it's all about Bitcoin, don't force anyone to it, just explain to them what the technology is all about and then let them be, there is no point in convincing them that Bitcoin is the right choice, because if any mistake of investment is being made in the near future, you who convince them will be the one to be hold responsible.

The matter is basically not like that, if I can gain a good knowledge about Bitcoin myself, then surely if I advise a person about Bitcoin, he will understand. If you want to explain this technology well to an unknown person, he will not understand at first. You notice that there are many of your friends who do not have good knowledge about Bitcoin and do not believe in Bitcoin. But if you teach them bitcoin in general then surely they will accept your bitcoin education. If you discuss the future of Bitcoin with an unknown person, he will understand. When I first told my friends about Bitcoin they didn't believe in Bitcoin but later on I brought them to crypto by discussing Bitcoin with them. If you want to and attract unknown people to the forum by explaining Bitcoin well like this, then this forum will become popular and everyone will accept Bitcoin as the currency of choice in the future.
