BITCOIN: Give people time!

[ektotanes]

That's bullish! I have always believed that there is no need to force people to buy Bitcoin. Just share the information with them and give some time. This person will decide for himself whether he needs it or not.

[JoyMarsha]

This is the way I act. I won't talk to you again about investing in bitcoin after I first told you about it and you refused to do as was advised. Repeating it would give the impression that I have a personal interest in your decision to purchase bitcoin.

Many people have the mentality that if you keep explaining anything about investing to them again, there must be more to it (they won't accept it right away). Even if they do, you are liable for any consequences that result from it (you forced them to invest in bitcoin when they weren't ready). Nobody wants that to happen to them, to blame them for investments gone wrong that their family or friends made because of them

As you said in your post, the best step to take is to give them some time. When they are prepared and have the funds, they will invest.

Introducing Bitcoin to someone is good for the growing demand on the market, but that's not always a good thing, because in the future when something happens, and he can't face the market consequence, he will blame you and may ask you to return his money. Maybe the best way to acquaint Bitcoin to someone is to introduce him to something like a website, game, or anything where the payment is Bitcoin. Make him like the game you introduce, so when he needs chips or game souvenirs, he must use Bitcoin to pay. I believe you don't need to tell him anything about bitcoin, he will find himself what is bitcoin and how to use it because he needs it.

I think it is normal. there are many technique in marketing. in my point of view, your case just the same as banner that company put in the street. Actually we can manipulate people's mind, I will explain this to make it clear. when we spread information about a product to random people then they maybe not interested at the first time but the information about that product is already on their brain, day by day they will sometime thinking about it, and some of them will buy the product. for example, when we go to work, we usually only thinking about what we will do today, but today we see a new banner on the street about a new movie, today we don't interested in it, we keep see the banner everyday and then we start to curious about it, then some of us will interested to watch the movie. when we tell people about bitcoin it is okay if they are not interested yet in it because maybe they will change their mind. Avatar and signature in this forum also have the same role.

You are absolutely right. There are a lot of instances that prove that giving time into something and letting the idea/thought/action/decision sit there allows realization and time to tinker with the possibilities it will bring. These days Bitcoin is receiving a lot of attention and acceptance from different people and country, hence those who heard about it before are curious about it again.

What is your reason for investing in bitcoin? I guess it's profit and it's everyone's need. I mean if you recommend bitcoin to others but don't talk about its benefits but just recommend it through game, website...Will that work? When we want others to be interested in what we recommend, we need to see if they have a need and when it comes to profits, no one refuses. But speaking of other things I don't think it would work if they didn't have a need for it.

[AicecreaME]

It's a hassle, based on my experience.

But don't get me wrong, I always answer people's questions regarding about Bitcoin if they are really interested on investing on it, though some of my experiences are those kind of people that didn't make their own research well and ended up badmouthing Bitcoin because of its volatility, so I just agree to them and smile at them because arguing with them will just give me more headache.

In short, not all of the people who are going to ask you about Bitcoin will totally understand how it truly works, so we should expect that to avoid stress.

Marketing uses deep-rooted evolutionary clues, not tricks. Are those banners fabric sheets? Definitely not! Masterfully used, they exploit the brain's repetitious nature. My friend, neurological real estate is at stake.

Your avatar and signature comparison is fantastic because they're like ancient tribal marks. Marks of identification, affiliation, and belief! And Bitcoin? Not a trend, but a revolution. A turning point in human exchange and worth! Like the discovery of fire or the wheel. Now ignoring it? Its their loss. However, history shows that adapters thrive.

Your point? Right on! Spread the word. Because even if they dont understand it today, enough repetition will make them know how important it is

@sarah Azhari what will make someone to blame you for the loss of his money is either you didn't explicitly explained to him about the pros and cons of whatever investment you were introducing him to, or you accepted his money to use it to invest for them which is also not advisable. It's only within this circumstance that the person can put blame on you should he lose his money.

Also, by way of using games and some kind of souvenirs as means to introduce people to bitcoin is just another tedious path to embark on for someone that's just getting to know about a tech he is ignorant of. And by games, the perception of the person towards bitcoin might be confusing to something of a child's play. If we're to introduce anything aside from bitcoin to anyone for the first time we should make sure to use a mature but simplified means. I think that can help much better.

I can definitely relate to that. It can be challenging when others doubt your success unless they see it themselves. Once they see it, though, they tend to ask many questions and may even be skeptical about how it's possible. It's understandable that it can be difficult to teach someone who is only interested in convenience, but patience and persistence can pay off in the end. Through the numerous people I have talked to, I see that many want to jump into the profitable part and are not willing to work to learn the process, but those who do are often rewarded in the long run.

You are absolutely right. There are a lot of instances that prove that giving time into something and letting the idea/thought/action/decision sit there allows realization and time to tinker with the possibilities it will bring. These days Bitcoin is receiving a lot of attention and acceptance from different people and country, hence those who heard about it before are curious about it again.

People change their perception with time and those who don't are being foolish. But being strict about own money and not investing in risky assets is not a wrong approach for most traders and investors. In short, bitcoin is known to be profitable to it's old timers but difficult to be accepted by new comers. This will not change easily because a lot of negative views drag bitcoin down than bringing it up.

Still we know that Bitcoin is the future asset to hold and hence we do, this can be learnt gradually by reading the charts and observing.

I agree with learning about Bitcoin first before joining. For those who already understand, I don't think it's difficult to join Bitcoin and win, but for those who have just come to join, I think you need to learn a lot so you don't make the wrong move, considering that many people are disappointed because of their own negligence, many people have high expectations even though they don't have enough knowledge to win, so in the end their money is at stake

[bayu7adi]

It appears that a similar situation has occurred with your uncle as it did with me. Back in 2014, when I was still in school, I only heard the word "Bitcoin" in passing and had no interest whatsoever in this new currency issued by non-government entities.

However, as time passed by for three years, my curiosity got the best of me, and I decided to delve deeper into understanding Bitcoin, hoping to uncover something new and intriguing to learn about. As it turned out, blockchain technology had a unique allure for me, which I believe is a technology promoting fairness and justice.

Furthermore, many individuals were leveraging Bitcoin's volatility for profit, and I decided to dip my toes into the world of buying and selling Bitcoin to see for myself. My initial investment incurred losses in the first week, but as time went on, I realized that Bitcoin prices could turn around, and the potential for profit always remained.

Understanding Bitcoin is like trading Bitcoin; it must be done at the right time.

Joining in on anything without any knowledge of what we are going to do is certainly something that carries a lot of risks that could be detrimental later. It's better to be late but be able to learn and know first before joining; it will certainly produce something that will be better and can even really guarantee that certainty.Likewise, when you want to join Bitcoin, you will face many problems without proper knowledge. Bitcoin is indeed very profitable, and everyone really believes in it for those who hold it, but it requires in-depth knowledge so that you don't make mistakes in managing what you have. We know that bitcoin is very dynamic and changes very quickly, so it is possible to decide wrongly what to do without prior knowledge.

Forcing someone to invest in bitcoin or imposing our thoughts on others is really a bad idea, everything takes time. But on the other hand, if we spend too much time realizing something, we will miss out on some great opportunities. Like you, if you invested in bitcoin in 2014, you would have had the opportunity to buy bitcoin at extremely cheap prices and you would have changed your life. Although it is not too late to invest in bitcoin 3 years later, you clearly missed the opportunity to buy bitcoin at a cheaper price. It also has disadvantages when we spend a lot of time learning something.

It's all speculative and I think here we know and realize that Bitcoin's growth prospects are very high. One day the world felt that it had a credible alternative to the falling USD price.  Once countries start to see Bitcoin as an alternative, they will start moving their funds from USD reserves to Bitcoin. Imagine what happens when more popular stores like this start accepting Bitcoin.

We don't have to force any individuals we're introducing to Bitcoin against their will to invest in Bitcoin, telling them about bitcoin is good enough and the rest is left for the persons to determine if they will be investing in bitcoin or not. When you allow people make the decisions, they'll be interested to research and understand how to keep their investment safe through using the right wallets that aren't centralized bit decentralized wallets that are opened source.

With time many individual will realize the importance of Bitcoin and they'll decide to invest. There's no late time to invest in Bitcoin because profits can be made any time you invest in Bitcoin. If you invest when the market is at the peak, all you have to do is to hold and not to sell.

Isnt it interesting how the simple act of sharing information can catalyze such profound changes? Absolutely. You bring up a salient point: presenting facts without pressure often allows for a genuine interest to sprout. Its like laying out ingredients; whether someone decides to cook is their call.

Moreover, when folks engage in self-directed research about Bitcoin, they naturally gravitate towards safe, open-source, decentralized wallets. But, and there's always a but, I'd be cautious of saying "theres no late time to invest in Bitcoin". Markets can be fickle; their behavior is anything but linear. So while the HODL mantra is quite the anthem, its not one-size-fits-all. Time, patience, and a sprinkle of luck play their roles.

While it's true that by informing, we play the role of unlocking the door to the cryptocurrency realm, I believe there's a crucial caveat. We all understand the necessity of ongoing oversight to ensure newcomers don't stumble into treacherous terrain. Lately, there have been numerous scams disguising themselves as Bitcoin, posing a significant threat to the mental well-being of those just venturing into the world of cryptocurrencies.

Moreover, in order for individuals to maintain an objective perspective on Bitcoin, it's imperative that we don't solely sing its praises. We must also acquaint them with some of Bitcoin's shortcomings, including the associated risks. This way, they'll exercise greater caution from the outset when expressing their interest in Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is already known around the world but as we can see, only a few people have the courage to invest while the majority keep ignoring it. It is not enough that they know about Bitcoin but also, it is the trust of that person who knows about this. Actually, I told some of my friends about Bitcoin investment but sadly, all of them don't believe it. And I see why, it was hard to convince someone if they didn't see how it changes the life of that person who told them (I). Yes, we can't force someone but let them decide as they ask you more about Bitcoin if they are really interested in it.
