BITCOIN: Give people time!

[ScamViruS]

I used to convince many people to invest in Bitcoin but they didn't take my advice that much at the time. On the contrary, he also asked me if I have a loss after investing in Bitcoin, will you compensate me or not? But if they had not asked that question and invested in Bitcoin today they would be sitting on huge gains, but they missed the opportunity because they wanted guaranteed profits overnight but they were far from the reality.

But now I see they want to discuss Bitcoin with me again, and also want to buy Bitcoin. But I am not interested in understanding them as before, because they did not give importance to me in time. If they had given importance to me, I would have been more interested in helping them. But it's good to see that those who once misunderstood Bitcoin, are now coming to the Bitcoin market, and buying Bitcoin.

It is better to stay away from people like that, if they want guaranteed profits then they should invest their money at their nearest bank and receive 1% per year or less for their money while the bank makes way more than that, anyone that wants to invest in anything should accept the risk which comes with it, and anyone looking for those kind of guarantees, especially from someone that does not directly benefits from their decision to invest, is simply someone that most likely will never become a good investor anyway.

When someone doesn't take your suggestions seriously and doesn't try to find out for themselves, they can never be a good investor. It is a matter of learning what Bitcoin really is, if someone tries to learn about Bitcoin he will not go to the bank to make a deposit. We can suggest good things to people but what they think about it is their personal matter. And that's why I keep my distance from all these people now. The day they learn more about Bitcoin will automatically become associated with Bitcoin, and that may be when they buy Bitcoin at the very top price of the next bull market!

Guess what he said, "well I did thought about it recently, and did a few research and decided I should give it a trial like you advised I should".

1. Give people time; they will show interest when the time is right for them. Their timing may not be same with yours, if you've done your own job of talking to them about it, then that's fine.

2. The amount of energy and time you expend preaching to someone about bitcoin is not a warranty that he will accept what you're offering. Maybe not immediately!

What do you think about this?

That’s just what it is.
You know it’s easier to listen when you’ve got interest than, when you’ve not. In our world today, no one wants to be taken for a ride and as such, people tend to ask what’s your benefit in having introduced them to a thing as, you shouldn’t be doing it for nothing.
The sad part of it for them is, there is just none when it comes to bitcoin. No referrer packages, just a good heart trying to aid an uncle, a friend, a siblings or what have you for a relationship.

Over the years, I’ve had my dealings with trying to tell some people about it but, so many times it’s been more useful having to wait and let them ask you,
What’s your source, how do you do it and what’s involved.

Then, it’s a thing of choice and a matter of your security to choose which way you would go. Give them the time they need and hope they don’t come up too late in either case, it’s not your problem.

[Mr.suevie]

That's very correct bro and my case with Bitcoin was also the same because I was actually told by a friend and plus the fact that I saw Bitcoin everywhere but I was still skeptical about it because of the massive ponzi scheme that was everywhere in my locality at that time and I mistook it for ponzi and nobody actually persuaded me to come back because I later learnt about the truth and became a dedicated to the course of owning my own portfolio in Bitcoin.

[Lanatsa]

So, four days ago this very uncle of mine called me saying that he's now interested in investing some money into bitcoin. And I was like what happened! I thought you rejected the idea when I introduced it to you months ago.

Guess what he said, "well I did thought about it recently, and did a few research and decided I should give it a trial like you advised I should".

Now this how the whole gist originally emanated. I had this long section talk with him about bitcoin more than 8months back of which he rejected the idea of investing with whatever amount he could use as a clinical trial of the digital currency for like 6months or 1year to see for himself the benefits of bitcoin but he refused and afterwards I never brought up the discussion again to him. But to my greatest surprise he called me on phone to come to his house, on getting there he shared to me about his interest to invest in bitcoin with the sum of #4.8million of our local currency, an amount that is worth around $6k based on current exchange rate.

Although it's not the story that intrigue me to share this info  to the community but it's mainly the lessons I learnt from it that did, which I'll believe a lot of bitcoiners needs to know even as they talk to people about bitcoin. Which are:-

1. Give people time; they will show interest when the time is right for them. Their timing may not be same with yours, if you've done your own job of talking to them about it, then that's fine.

2. The amount of energy and time you expend preaching to someone about bitcoin is not a warranty that he will accept what you're offering. Maybe not immediately!

3. We should always tell people to go do their own research about bitcoin after giving them some preaching about it. Doing their own research from with what they  get online can strengthen their conviction about what they've have been told.


What do you think about this?

But it is better that you do make yourself get involved if you dont like on being missed out on the train.Well there's no such thing about being late or whatsoever because we do know that not all would really be fully

aware about Bitcoin or cryptos existence on which it would really be just that normal that not all would really be wary. Yes, recognition is still on the move and something that would be normally moving forward and
would make people would really be aware about its existence. It is really just that there are people who arent really that or that being aware about advancement or to those things which are new and something that had been that newly created.This is why on the time that they would be missing out then this is the time that they do miss ou opportunities and made out some regrets and on the time that they have done this
then for sure they would be murmuring on what they had missed out.

Recognition and adoption is on the move as always.We would really be normally heading there into a condition on which we would really be that seeing that Bitcoin is slowly been that recognized and
slowly that been known on the years passing. Lets just not rush up on things because this is really that usually that normal that things cant be outright be known.

What do you think about this?

I like this point.
Because at the end of the day, you should never suggest buying anything because this will make people dependent, especially for new people. When we try to suggest to buy at a price of xx for example, this will become a newbie's dependence on the profit that boils down to the price we give and when his purchase is not what he expects he will definitely come back again and again.
So this will actually make them more dependent and do not want something that they think is complicated like to learn and others because they will only follow what they are told before which in the end this will be less precise.
Learning is important and as much as possible if you really want to invest in something in this case bitcoin, it would be better to learn first from scratch so as not to depend on other people's speculation and research.

Interesting, your uncle have chosen the right step by invest in Bitcoin, with such amount of money for a start this shows that he's now very interested in Bitcoin and he's not going to take chances because WE,RE All Going To Make IT (WAGMI) if he can “Hold On for Dear Life,” (HOLD), I like the facts that after telling people about Bitcoin invest when they are not listening then they letter comes back to you for more details even after doing their own researchs, it good that way because at that time they will give you all ears and listen good.

[Wakate]

You have really done a great work OP,and your uncle has also taken his time to think and convince himself about adopting bitcoin. One thing is that people don't just rush into investing if they don't have the idea of what bitcoin is and this is why when you talk about bitcoin to some people,they would not show any interest because it is hard for someone to accept bitcoin easily without doubt. Buying bitcoin needs preparation of one's mind to take the risk of buying since the newbie has little knowledge on bitcoin. I know that your uncle will be happy with you for introducing him to bit coin soon. I hope you taught him how to use a noncustodial wallet to keep his coins for safety.

One thing I have noticed so far is that we don't have to try too hard to convince people to invest in Bitcoin because any attempt of forcing people or trying too hard to invite people and they finally make losses will lead to a big disagreement and they will blame you that you are responsible for there loses.

 Bitcoin investment is something that we don't need to force people to invest in at all. We need to allow then to make there own choices so if any thing happens along the way, you will not be accused of anything. People can either decided to sell there holdings when the market is down and that might make people to blame us for there loses which is nit do. Enough understand and tutoring is important to show people the way to be a good Bitcoin investors.

True that, if the person is looking for investment, we just need to give them a hint and some information.  They will personally look at it and study it.  The mistakes lots of us made is that we are forcing people to believe us and listen to our suggestions when they have different things in their minds.  What worst is that many of us look at those people who rejected our ideas to be foolish and uneducated when we are the one who is actually at fault by forcing them to absorb our belief and ideas.

True!  We have no right to force Bitcoin investments to people.  It is their money, if things do not go well it will be their loss not ours.  So let just give them the freedom to choose and don't be pushy about it.  It will be annoying to them to the point that they will avoid us like a plague.  We just need to give the information and give links if they are interested in further information.  We can always tell them to contact us for some guide  if they become interested.

You are right, no one should induce people to invest in Bitcoin if they are not ready to do so but sometimes they just need a little push or explanation to understand the benefits it can bring not only to their pocket but also as an adoption in place of their own currency.  This is perhaps the hardest question to make clear.

2. The amount of energy and time you expend preaching to someone about bitcoin is not a warranty that he will accept what you're offering. Maybe not immediately!

3. We should always tell people to go do their own research about bitcoin after giving them some preaching about it. Doing their own research from with what they  get online can strengthen their conviction about what they've have been told.

I think when we educate people about Bitcoin, and try to get them interested in Bitcoin. Even if someone doesn't immediately accept our offer, we should keep trying. Because only with effort we can create awareness among people and attract them to Bitcoin.

Your suggestion is good that after preaching Bitcoin we should tell people to research about Bitcoin, it is natural that when a person researches and informs himself about something, his interest and belief. increases. Now getting information has become very easy. There are various platforms online for just about anything. People need to be aware that they can get information about Bitcoin online from various platforms.

We shouldn't disturb them if they aren't interested. We can insist them to be part and make them understand better if they had shown little signs of learning about bitcoin. Without any positive thoughts or interest on bitcoin, just a forced learning doesn't cause any change.

When a person gets to know about a new term automatically he/she will explore and find what it is. When someone does like this it is our responsibility to help them know better. We can suggest them with some sources available to know better about bitcoin. Even after that if they're interested it is time to give the best of our ability.

[DapanasFruit]

Many good things in life can really take time to spread and be popular...and I think the same thing is true with Bitcoin. People will not just go on board most especially if it involves them shelling out some hard-earned money from their own pockets. Of course, maybe if you are just airdropping some amount of BTC to their wallets then the picture can be different...just like what we saw in El Salvador. When we talk to people especially those who are close to us, it is important that we present the facts especially the possible rewards and corresponding risks involved...and we should always tell them to make their own research or due diligence before contemplating on converting their money to BTC. I am happy to see that you have done your own assignment well.

[Bitcoin_people]

It's really good that your uncle is interested in learning about Bitcoin. He probably had no idea about Bitcoin when you first told him about it. For which you disbelieved the conversation you had with him about Bitcoin and refused to invest in Bitcoin. But maybe your uncle called you after a long time to get more confirmation from you. Maybe he has known about Bitcoin for a long time and after seeing various information about it, he believed Bitcoin and became interested in investing. It's true that the time you gave him about Bitcoin made him interested in investing. Time must be spent to educate a person about Bitcoin and after telling him all about Bitcoin, he will eventually believe in Bitcoin and invest.

[YUriy1991]

What do you think about this?

It's true, everything needs a process and one thing we need to know, it's not easy to get other people to invest in btc, let alone for someone to spend a large amount of money to enter the market. Yes. Of course, you tell about your belief that you have gone through it and are seen as successful. of course, by showing the results of your work acquisition for example last year. Yes. good effort from you slowly.

it's all about taste and than continue to do/ experience and the last thing you believe that BTC is a Good Investment.

[lovesmayfamilis]

The best example for people to become interested in Bitcoin will be your success. Although I stick to a more modest way of life, I don't like people who shout at every corner about how they made a profit. However, on our forum, I often see people who sincerely want to interest their loved ones or neighbors in investing in Bitcoin. Based on this, you will always be able to catch a person's attention with Bitcoin by showing what advantages they can get if they have witnessed your previous life and how it has changed.
But if you have nothing to be proud of, then leave time for people to grow up with their interests.

I agree with this, there is no better example or explanation than to show them the results we get when we invest in bitcoin. And that's the way I'm using it, I find it a waste of time if our investment hasn't produced positive results and we're trying to share it with everyone. Even though we mean well to them, they will disregard what we say.

I have been talking about bitcoin with my brother since 2017, but I was even poorer than he was at the time, and he ignored what I wanted to share with him. But in 2021, my bitcoin investment has made a significant return and I don't want to brag, but I am many times richer than him.
And now, he has listened to what I have to say because he wants a lot of money just like me. Although he has missed quite a few opportunities over the years, he still has a chance to get started with bitcoin.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

I used to convince many people to invest in Bitcoin but they didn't take my advice that much at the time. On the contrary, he also asked me if I have a loss after investing in Bitcoin, will you compensate me or not? But if they had not asked that question and invested in Bitcoin today they would be sitting on huge gains, but they missed the opportunity because they wanted guaranteed profits overnight but they were far from the reality.

But now I see they want to discuss Bitcoin with me again, and also want to buy Bitcoin. But I am not interested in understanding them as before, because they did not give importance to me in time. If they had given importance to me, I would have been more interested in helping them. But it's good to see that those who once misunderstood Bitcoin, are now coming to the Bitcoin market, and buying Bitcoin.

       -     When I was new to the Bitcoin business industry, I was also very excited about Bitcoin, it even came to the point that even if my friend didn't ask, I would open Bitcoin to him, then I would see that there was no interest, of course when I noticed that, he said I don't think what I'm doing is right. So after those events, I will never do it again.

Because Bitcoin is really only for those who are interested and are making a way to find out how it can help every person who believes in it. That's why it's still good to learn your own way to know Bitcoin.

I have seen from a long time that when you share good things with other people including friends, they don't care about you. But when you become successful and get financial freedom, your friends and the rest of the people you talked to about Bitcoin will be jealous of your success.

It is better to stay away from such people who do not want to spend time in learning and do not want to acquire knowledge. It is better to stay away from them, because the laziness that is in them will come to you if you stay with them. Let them live their lazy lives.
