Have you successfully influenced someone to invest in bitcoin ?  What was the final result, did they thank you later for this ?

Why do I have to? I’m totally aware of its risks that could lead to depression and frustration, so why should I? Bitcoin is not an ordinary investment wherein you’ll just invest and put your hard-earned money and then boom, you’re already in profits. Of course, that’s not how bitcoin works. It may takes several years first of being patient and persistent before you will see its profits and rewards, so that would mean a quite risky and somewhat a roller coaster investment due to its high volatility in the market. And let’s face it, not everyone is patient and is capable to take calculated risk when it comes to putting their hard-earned money in an investment.

It's true that we shouldn't teach people to make investments that have risks because if they make a mistake of course they will feel that we are cheating them, of course this will cause them to have problems, but if there is someone who really wants to learn about investing, of course we can explain it. to them in detail about the profits and losses they will get in investing and after that they can decide whether to invest or not.
Yes, it is not easy to get profits from investing in Bitcoin. We have to be patient in every investment process we carry out in order to get satisfactory results from the investments we make.

I can’t introduce bitcoin knowledge to anyone at the moment not because bitcoin investment has to do with privacy, the issue is I’m not yet capable introducing bitcoin and secondly it sound difficult because you’ll have to stress your speech for anyone to invest. Introducing bitcoin is not so bad from my view and I also heard about bitcoin from someone, an investor just have to choose who’s ready and teach not the ones who feel reluctant about bitcoin investment. Like every newly investor will think bitcoin is just too perfect all because of the information they got about bitcoin, people creating bitcoin awareness should throw more light on bitcoin price fluctuation and high transaction fee etc.

Yes my brother was really against me when I was starting in cryptocurrency, but after I showed him my earning he also tried it.
And now he is the one who guides me on some crypto activities, and he is much more successful than me.
I know that he is thankful for it, honestly crypto change our life it made it easier.

You and your brother are successful in the crypto field because of your knowledge and without knowledge no one can fulfill his dream. It is common that if one person becomes successful in one field then all of the family members join the same field.

Nobody wants to join anything that has no guarantee but in the case of crypto everyone wants to be a part of it but they must realize the exact knowledge about investment and I think following your family members is not bad but following anyone else without making Investigation is not a good idea.

So far I never introduce anyone about Bitcoin, so the answer is I don't know if I'm capable to convince someone to invest in Bitcoin and don't know what they will do after they invest in Bitcoin.

Teach someone about Bitcoin have many drawbacks:
1. Ruin my privacy.
2. I would get blamed if they loss.
3. Wasting my time and effort.

Usually people don't tend to get you when you talk about Bitcoin as they feel you want to introduce one scam project especially if they've never heard about it. I agree with your reasons because as par your first reason, you get to open yourself to some kinds of risks since where I come from, some parastatals regard one who trades Bitcoin as someone worthy of suspicion, one who is involved in fraudulent activities or the like so it's best to keep such matters to yourself.
 It's not everyone who can be patient with Bitcoin's price volatility so why bother when like you pointed it will boomerang on you if prices don't go the way they want?

I feel like those type of people who do not really "understand" bitcoin are just people who do not believe what you say and believe what others say. I mean when I say bitcoin is a good thing, and they in return say something as silly as it's a scam, then I do not have to continue speaking to them about it, because they have zero clue why it's a scam they just heard someone else say it and in that situation it is me against whoever they heard it from and they picked that side and not me.

Why would I keep trying to explain something to someone who would trust such a thing? I mean it's obvious that we are not going to be able to continue this conversation without me getting mad at that person for trusting others and not me.

Never and I have no intention of influencing anyone to invest in bitcoin because there are many risks if people get involved in it not according to their wishes. Something that costs money will be quite risky for us to teach people, unless they want to find out first before getting involved.

Many people fail in investing because they don't understand the whole thing and instead they only listen to the profits that people get. So if their expectations are different then we are the first to be blamed.

What was the final result, did they thank you later for this ?

Because I have never influenced people to invest, until now I don't have an answer that I can give. If you want to give advice just for gratitude then there are many ways we can do it and it is much less risky.

I tried to get in touch with some of my friends and relatives but unfortunately, nobody had the guts to believe in me. I then thought that I was not the kind of person who could influence and I see also that it was hard to influence a person if they won't see the visible results of your investment. That is why I don't push myself to do that again and don't bother other's life with Bitcoin because it is impossible to educate someone when they are close-minded. I'd rather keep it by myself and let my work show them a few years from now, and why this is a good investment.

Besides, not all are meant for this which I think also that maybe those people around me are not destined to become Bitcoin investors.

I actually never tried to influence someone to invest in Bitcoin, I just told everything I know when someone asked me about Bitcoin investment. I have a friend who already asked several times to give the explanation about Bitcoin investment. I already described to him, he also have invested in crypto, not sure he invested in Bitcoin. He just told me that he invested in an unpopular coin. I already remind him to stay away from random coins but he didn't follow my suggestion. The last information I heard from him, he already quit from crypto investment because he thinks there are other investment that can have a more promising future. It looks like he already failed with his investment because he didn't follow my advice. He didn't invest in Bitcoin or top coins that I suggest to him, he invest in shitcoins. TBH, I am quite disappointed with him!!

That was also my experience way back then which has taught me that some people do not deserve bitcoin at all. Not because they don’t trust bitcoin, but also because they don’t have the guts to risk their funds since they are afraid that everything will fall into a scam. This comes to my senses and understand that not all people are actually interested in bitcoin, they just want to take quick profits but will never be interested to take the hardwork and put a lot of efforts and patience in order to succeed on their investment.

I don’t think I can remember if I did influenced someone who later came back to say thank you or reference me but sincerely, I think most persons who easily influence others so so without actually saying a word and most times, their ways of life always attract people to them, wanting to know how they make their money.

One of the reasons why people don’t invest in cryptocurrency lately is because of lack of fun, and personally, I believe a lot of people who know about bitcoin aren’t even investing or holding now because a lot of them lack finance to buy and hold and eventually miss out from the benefits and rewards cryptocurrency offers and I think I’ve written a thread stating that, “Having all the necessary knowledge about cryptocurrency and not having the money to invest, is also a waste, as both money and knowledge compliment themselves

Have you successfully influenced someone to invest in bitcoin ?  What was the final result, did they thank you later for this ?

I have influenced quite a number of people to buy Bitcoin that I can't remember how many they are, I once convinced over 100+ people to sign up for a local Bitcoin exchange when the wave of cryptocurrency just come into my country. Alot of them bought Bitcoin and they have been grateful since then but not all made profits because of greediness and other factors that caused them to lose the Bitcoin or sell too early. The most recent successful influencing happen to my cousin that was finding it difficult to get herself a good playing job after finishing the university. I thought her about the industry and she has been doing well for herself that she no longer have financial challenges to some extent in her life.

Some challenges are there when you tell people about Bitcoin, not all of them will want to buy so you don't have to force them to buy because doing so you'll be giving them the wrong impression of the market that its like MLM that you have to bring someone in order for you to get paid. You are also making yourself vulnerable because they will always harass you when they don't make profits which the fault is always because of the things they did but you'll be the one to receive the blames. There's a good feeling if you successfully influence someone and they get the benefits of buying Bitcoin and the industry overall.

This is the reason why a person living anywhere in the world doesn't need to discuss their finances or financial activities such as how much money they have, what sort of investments they have made, or where they keep their money, etc. Even if the person in front is from your family, you can't trust anyone nowadays.

Discussing your finances to any one be it family or a trusted friend is like putting a target on your back. You become a human bank where your only relevance is to dole out cash or someone they can easily set up to rob from. Humans are inherently greedy and as such, can go to any lengths to get money so exposing yourself and your holdings easily puts you in danger.
To be honest Bitcoin is not for everyone so it's not a priority that everyone must get what you are trying to pass across even if it's a more preferred way of ensuring your privacy is intact.
 Some people regard Bitcoin as a product of the end time, a means in which the New world order would unify the nations so how can I convince someone with such a mentality that's it's not?

I have successfully influenced so many people and I have lost count already, some I can't say if they are still in the game or not and a few that are closer to me are still buying some Bitcoin right now.

I remember someone thanking me about Bitcoin investment and I couldn't even remember when I helped them out, I have so many contact on my telegram account and I believe this a good way to spread words about Bitcoin, some will like it and some will hate it.

With the situation of the economy in my country right now I doubt I could turn anything around if Bitcoin never exists, all thanks to the creator himself, Satoshi Nakamoto.

You and your brother are successful in the crypto field because of your knowledge and without knowledge no one can fulfill his dream. It is common that if one person becomes successful in one field then all of the family members join the same field.

It would indeed be quite good for the family if they were united in joining one field in order to be successful together. But in cases like that, I have also seen that there are also families who don't want to follow one field even though one of their family members has been successful in a certain way. Because in each family there must be different levels of knowledge and not just in one area, so these differences will give rise to other areas which can also be quite beneficial for the family.

Nobody wants to join anything that has no guarantee but in the case of crypto everyone wants to be a part of it but they must realize the exact knowledge about investment and I think following your family members is not bad but following anyone else without making Investigation is not a good idea.

Most people will be like that when they see one of their family members who has been successful through crypto so they have the desire to continue following them until they really can and master all the knowledge related to crypto. But in terms of achieving success, we also need to look at other people, even if we won't follow them directly because they are not from our own family, but as long as the other person is already quite famous in the crypto field and has also been quite successful in that field. I think it wouldn't be wrong to see how that person can be successful even though we don't have direct contact with that person.

I influated my most of friends but I don't know they invest or not because my rich friend don't share any investing history to us.
Maybe someone did it who wanted to keep it a secret.

Not everyone will be enthusiastic about Bitcoin investment. Moreover, it is not possible for me to inform everyone about Bitcoin. But I have some close friends or close relatives who are still not well versed in Bitcoin. If they knew about Bitcoin they would have invested. As I know little about Bitcoin, I will try to give a general idea about Bitcoin to those who are close to me. If they are motivated and interested in investing, I will suggest them to invest. But I won't teach them only the positive side of Bitcoin and the idea of being profitable from it. I will try to explain to them that investing in Bitcoin can lead to losses or that it is a very volatile currency with the possibility of losing money at any time. If they agree then I definitely want to encourage them for investment.

[Etranger]

I only influenced my parents. They invested and made 3x on it, but I still can't call it a success because throughout the entire investment they believed that I was responsible for this decision they made. And during periods when Bitcoin fell or stood still, they were unhappy. I no longer plan to give investment advice to anyone. This must be an internal desire of a person. Only then does he take full responsibility upon himself, and not look for someone to push it onto.

it is good to bring up people that you know in Bitcoin investment because for you to introduce them to bitcoin you know quite well the benefit the advantages you have already gotten from bitcoin investment that is why so many persons now do bring the member of the family into Bitcoin and there's sometimes the reason why you need to introduce your siblings or your parents into bitcoin is when you depart on Earth so that they can be able to access your bitcoin that you save so without introducing them to Bitcoin I don't know how your bitcoin will be when you give off on planet... from my perspective it is highly ideal that someone introduce the member or the family to bitcoin investment

There is a difference between introducing someone to bitcoin and influencing them to invest in it. Knowledge will never be superfluous, even if it remains without practical application. You can tell your loved ones what Bitcoin is, how to use it, and even leave them your secret phrase in case something happens to you. But it's a completely different matter to take responsibility for the fact that someone bought Bitcoin on your advice. I personally believe in the growth of Bitcoin and consider it an excellent investment in the modern world, but I cannot be sure that those who follow my example will also perceive it like that and will be prepared for long waits or even temporary losses. Investing is a decision that a person must make personally, and not according to someone else's instructions.

Influencing is better than forcing someone, and I believe that the latter is the dangerous one, you cab influence someone but it still depends on them to make a step which to me is still fair enough, but forcing someone to invest in Bitcoin will surely lead to many discomforting results.

I have influenced two beautiful souls in the past, they took no steps until they noticed that Bitcoin is changing my life every year for the better, they got jealous I believe and they came back asking for more information, today they are still investing in Bitcoin and it's been over five years already.

They are both out of the country now, they both reside in the UK and things are going fine for them, but I have had more bad results after these two, many never come back as they feel it is too risky to bet money on the success of Bitcoin, most of them still believe that Bitcoin is surviving on a borrowed time, that one day it will vanish.

[TopTort777]

I can only share my story with crypto, but I will never try to influence someone invest in anything, because I dont want to a) lose friends b) be responsible for their losses. I have share "my story of success" in crypto, what is what, what I did to earn and how things turned, but hardly anyone got interest in crypto. I can highlight two reasons, people dont know and dont want to know anything about crypto, and people think it is too late to invest. They didnt want to wait when bitcoin turn from 20k to 70k, but they wanted to buy it when the price few dollars and sell at 70k.

That’s impressive. I’m nowhere close to that figure. I applaud your commitment to grow a bitcoin community in your locality. It’s a selfless service, I’d imagine you would have made a lot of money if you were an influencer for the crypto exchange at the time. But that was not your motivation, seeing your peers grow is much more important to you. In today world, people assume you have something to gain when you are trying to introduce them to bitcoin, they feel you’re getting paid for it or assume that it is some kind of affiliate marketing program.

[ChiBitCTy]

I "found" or found out about bitcoin back in 2013 or 2014.  I wish I could remember exactly which year and exactly how I found it, but those details are a bit cloudy.  That said, I was "preaching" from the high heavens about bitcoin long before most people had ever even heard about it.  I never directly tried to influence most anyone but I certainly influenced people indirectly, simply explaining all the benefits of bitcoin and why it was/is such a huge breakthrough technology.
