The attractiveness of Bitcoin among my friends

[Dzwaafu11]

After much about 5%-7% indicated "I am interested how do I start"?
Just in conclusion because it was a lengthy discussion I asked them to invest what is affordable to loose and keep to accumulate on the DCA with as much they can afford to loose while they acquires more knowledge about the Bitcoin market.
It is interesting to say even during the week, many are showing interest.
Meanwhile... many of them have heard of Bitcoin but never believed it is real while some were odd to it.

Teaching them how to invest in Bitcoin will never be a crime. But you see, one thing I will advise you on is that you should tell them about the risks associated with bitcoin investment. Because telling you that they are interested does not mean they will be able to take the risk, and the fact that they already use it in their business and get money daily, I am still doubting if they can do a bitcoin investment or even take the risk in it, so I think you go back and tell them the risks that they may come across after the investment.

because not all of them will understand they should invest the amount they can afford to lose; there is no amount we can afford to lose; it is just a matter of sacrificing some amount of money in bitcoin investment. You need to explain everything to them; if not, you will be the one to blame at the end of the day. The reason why I say this is that you did not indicate that you had told them the risk.

The problem is that if you are the one who show them how to get the start, then they are going to blame you for making them start if they lose money. Now, I know you might be thinking "I did not tell them to buy it, I just showed them how to because they asked, why would it be my problem if they lose?" but that's not how human brain works.

Unfortunately, even though it is 100% of their fault and you do not have even 0.000001% mistake in there, they still remember you as the person who helped with their mistake. If you did not helped them, even though they are asking about it, they would not be able to invest, and not lose that money. That's how they combine those two together, and that makes it quite hard for them to see you like without mistake at all.

One of the things that i dont really like is to get blamed on something which isnt my fault. This is why at the moment that you would really be making out some introduction to your friends about Bitcoin or crypto then dont always forget on telling them or having those cautions on having those risks on losing money because if not then for sure you would really be ending up on getting blamed in the end of the line.
Whenever there's someone who would really be having those kind of asking questions about this and that then i do simply show them some website or youtube vids explaining the basics.
At the moment that they do have some follow up questions then this is the only time i would really be answering but of course you should really be cautious on what you are tending to explain.

When you invite your family or friends to invest in crypto, of course there are those who will accept your invitation and there are also those who reject it for various reasons they have. Of course we don't need to pay attention to those who don't follow suit, but we have to really teach them about investing and will It's better to advise them to continue to explore knowledge about crypto so they can make a profit.
Every beginner will of course panic when they see market conditions that are experiencing a decline and it would be better if they could use this moment to continue accumulating the assets they want to be able to make a profit when prices increase again.

We cannot force anyone that he should do Bitcoin investment but we can just share our views or thoughts about Bitcoin because if they get success then they will not give money to us and if they face loss then we will not help them to recover that loss back. There are some individuals who don't give any concentration on understanding the market and are not familiar with Bitcoin but as they know that Bitcoin is a money making asset so they rush towards its investment.

Beginners will panic if they decide to invest without getting Knowledge but if they achieve accurate knowledge then there will be no difficulty for them during the market dump because they will manage their investment through various strategies.

[Woodie]

Had similar discussions with friends on FB, though it was something to do with going back in time what would you tell your younger self and honestly I was impressed to see most of my buddies all vouched to tell the younger self to jump onto a Bitcoin investment which tells me alot of people are very much aware of Bitcoin even if they don't talk much about it..but clearly Bitcoin is very much attractive

But OP with your case, I think your buddies were more interested in Bitcoin after being told of the flexibility to work, stress free environment   etcetera , who wouldn't want these benefits. And the risk part of Bitcoin got me lol   , well played!!

[X-ray]

the fact that bitcoin right now is seen as legitimate investment honestly helps me a lot in explaining what is bitcoin from investment standpoint the presence of ETF is also such a huge help, when people ask how to invest bitcoin, i just answer find the meaning of what bitcoin truly is and head to the ETF, since its ETF, they should know before hand what risk these investment carries.
back than it wasn't so easy, everyone pretty skeptic about investment in bitcoin even to such extent of considering it just a temporary trend well turns out they are wrong.
honestly though I just never really feel like explaining such thing related to investment to anyone out there, its just feels like a burden later on when they encounter unfortunate fate of losing money due to fomo and I know well that even the most disciplined investor if they are faced with that information of other people making millions out of their investment they gonna get into the fomo train as well its just matter of time and greed.
that's why I just never really want to speak about investment at all not only limited to bitcoin though but even stocks, forex trading and so on it kinda saves me a lot of trouble moving forward, since pretty much in my opinion right now everyone know investment and they also know bitcoin anyway.
even the people in remote place are right now understand what cryptocurrency is, they already know it exists and it is an investment.

but speaking of the fact these past years have been truly a good year for bitcoin the fact that it climbed from low market valuation to this massive 2.6 trillion dollar market is already making many people interested so much into the world of crypto investment and we are still in the early stage of adoption, things just gonna get better and better along the way and i'm pretty sure of it.

I guess many of you guys here will hit on me that it was risk of me exposing my Bitcon investment to the public but if I may ask in such case, how do we expect to achieve the widely adoption of Bitcoin users if we keep acting ghost of it?
Well, I do not also expect us to comfortably go out there and get exposed out of ignorance because it can as well be risky.

Don't bring in reinforcements if the gang doesn't ask for it because it carries a big risk.
Secrets will be revealed not tomorrow, next week, next month and next year, but secrets will be revealed when we least expect it if it concerns more than one person.
Our delivery will initially sound normal to them and we have to believe that there is one ear that will look further into what we have said.
For privacy reasons, I don't think it is necessary to convey to others that we are Bitcoin investors.

I do agree that we should not really force crypto into anyone, that will not give you a good result at all, people would simply be just hating you for getting them into it. Just avoid that, if you really want to make bitcoin attractive to use or adopt, then you should just focus on how you could just make it work, I believe that the best thing to do right now would be just focus on how you go about your own day, and make bitcoin quite attractive for people to come.

You do not tell people to use bitcoin, you make bitcoin very amazing to be used, and people will want to adopt it themselves without you telling them to do that. This is why it's quite important to realize the difference between pressuring and marketing your way into bitcoin adoption.

I also didn't see the OP mention that he talked about the risks of investing in bitcoin for them.

In my opinion, when introducing bitcoin or teaching someone to invest in bitcoin, we should emphasize the utility and use cases of bitcoin so that they understand the true potential of bitcoin. Additionally, we should emphasize the risks they may face when investing in bitcoin. We should not talk too much about profits because it will mislead them into thinking that making money from bitcoin is easy or will make them only consider bitcoin as a get-rich-quick tool.

Personally, when talking about bitcoin with anyone, I often emphasize the risks even though I know that it can scare them and make them not want to invest. But if they accept and still want to invest in bitcoin, they will easily succeed with their investment.

[AVE5]

I've done the same on some forums where I participate as well. Doing it while still anonymous and besides Trump is already doing it for the crypto community.

And you're right about spreading the word, it is however risky if people are watching the discussions and people know you have BTC. The growing number of crimes related to crypto can be a threat but it's all up to you if you live in a place where crimes are common.

One of the main things or lets say the single situation that i do really tend to avoid as much as possible is to let someone know that im involved with crypto neither having a Bitcoin or some coins. Even into my closest
friend or relatives on which i dont make myself that being exposed about on having some coins or dealing with crypto. You dont know on who would be the one to end up that kind of bad intent to you or
someone who do make out some curses just because they've seen you that you do have a good life or having that good financial state because of it. It would really be that normal that there will really be those
kind of questions on which it would really be talking on how did you do it? or into those questions on what are your secrets?

Its not really that bad on making some given direct links on what Bitcoin or crypto is on which you could point them there and tell them about on reading up with those things and learn up with the basics.
Just let them know about the risks involved but majority of noobs wont really be tending to care about it because they would really be coming after for the money and
wont be focusing too much about the risk involved and would really be directly making investment without thinking.

I agree with you and with my little experience, it's better just sticking with your bitcoin investment rather than focusing on letting people know about your secret assets of investing on bitcoin as a medium of convincing them to also invest in the system. What for exactly? At what level would it really be of your benefits? These should always be your self questioning so that you don't intend to help one out where it'd turn against your goodwill.
I think that living an amiable life that'd attract people to directly question your source is a better way to tell about Investing on bitcoin in the first place but then mostly emphasize on the Cons so that whoever that finally Invests on it can manage their emotions when the digital markets encounters deflations while holding their bitcoins assets. Then they'd understand that the industry I basically about long term holding to prosper.

People will show interest if we have succeeded in what we have done. Experience has taught us a valuable lesson that anything that deals with money should be avoided. Not because we are afraid of other people surpassing what we have achieved, but rather to avoid being blamed for the disappointing results we get.

The crypto market contains risks. Bitcoin prices cannot be predicted easily. If they are unable to accept reality with the desired expectations, the result is that we will be hated and blamed.
You're right. Our focus is ourselves. If they want to ask to study, the door is always open. Don't blame us if he doesn't have mental readiness.

We all know that bitcoin is still not accepted by majority, so even if you set yourself as an example of bitcoin investor, still that won’t change the first impression of people, that crypto or bitcoin is a ponzi scheme that’s why it’s risky to be attached with it. So just leave it as it is, you don’t have to force people to like and embrace bitcoin just because you did it.

The best thing you can do is continue to invest in bitcoin secretly, without telling the people even your close friends and relatives that you are into bitcoin. And when you have gained positive developments from bitcoin, let your success talk about bitcoin, that’s the only time they will immediately rush into bitcoin without doubt and hesitation.

A very common human being behavior on which on the moment that you would be able to see someone specially on your close friends or you do know which have that good living in terms of their condition or status then you would really be having that kind of question on what are the things that they are dealing with. So the next thing that you would do? Then you would definitely ask and this is something that you would really be asking
on how its been done, and for you who is really that earning that well then if you arent that selfish type of person then you would really be telling them about the basics on which it would really be a normal thing to be done.
The important thing that you shouldnt be forgetting to tell that on means of investment would really be having that corresponding risks. They shouldnt really be thinking that they could make easy money on this market.

Just like on what other people been saying above is that on the moment that you do deal with Bitcoin investment is that you should really be prepared about on the risks involved.
This is something that you should really be telling into your friends so that they wont be pointing out fingers on you at the moment that they do have negative portfolios.

I feel like just redirecting them to somewhere else is a much better way, I understand that some people may want to be helpful and I love that too, there is really nothing wrong with that, but at the end of the day we are talking about a situation that is going to be quite tough if we are not careful at all. This is why I believe that we need to make sure that everything looks quite normal and not that crazy.

We should consider the situation to be very entertaining, and because of that I believe people do help, because they think doing it with friends would be fun, but in the end it becomes quite terrible if things do not go well. So it is wiser to just redirect them somewhere else that they can learn and not really get involved with it.

[Bravut]

Within some childhood and highschool friends, we have been actively connected through the social media groups.
So during the past weekend, we had a topic for the day tittled "Indicate your section of job or source of income so we could patronize each other".
Indeed it was great learning about lot of us venturing in meaningful and profitable basics but non ever mentioned Bitcoin.

So I indicated that I am a Bitcoin investor which I do not need their patronages based on the Bitcoin market structure. After much strategious plans of patronizing each other, my Bitcoin investment became the topic of the day were they all devoted interest to learn and be clarified about Bitcoin due to the fact I don't need their patronages .
Indeed everyone has always wanted a flexible kind of job that would be eased of stress after letting them know it is a digital investment.
I also told them to see the aspect of earning in the Bitcoin as investment that would be more benefitable if keying in for a long time goal as it is not a quick generating income as our labours and trading markets maybe.
Infact, I took the stage like the speaker of the day while indirectly my intention is to bring them into the industry.
Logically I never spoke of the risks involved because I expected them to ask what could be the risks involved because that would show some levels of their interests. It all happened as thought which I also cleared them up

After much about 5%-7% indicated "I am interested how do I start"?
Just in conclusion because it was a lengthy discussion I asked them to invest what is affordable to loose and keep to accumulate on the DCA with as much they can afford to loose while they acquires more knowledge about the Bitcoin market.
It is interesting to say even during the week, many are showing interest.

Well, I do not also expect us to comfortably go out there and get exposed out of ignorance because it can as well be risky.

You did nothing wrong OP, There is no need to shy away, or hide the fact that you are into Bitcoin, for how long are we going to hide it, Bitcoin Topic is no longer a new topic even the younger ones are using it for Transactions now.
You did well by, explaining the risk and also indulging them to go learn about it, there is no need for exaggeration or feel like we are going to be blamed for anything.

One thing is sure, Result attract People, let create more enlightenment.

Our reach to measure people so we can find personality sometimes will not be found in a short time. Putting forward positive thoughts towards people is good and recommended for us as humans, but many things also end in hatred.

As long as the person is still on the same frequency as our way of thinking, then it will lead to satisfactory results because by giving himself the opportunity to continue to learn about Bitcoin investment assets, it will be equally profitable in a broad sense and we will continue to be encouraged to convey everything we know. know about Bitcoin starting from how it works, the risks and benefits of Bitcoin.

If this applies to both parties, it would be great for us to be able to introduce and bring people towards a financial system that has freedom.

I get the hint that you are challenged to do it around you, but I think you should know what the consequences are.
You know what I'm trying to say, some fools will perceive you as someone who is trying to trap them in a vicious circle, which means they don't believe in bitcoin enough at the same time. If you find it like that, close the chapter and move the conversation to another topic.

To this day, I don't take responsibility for teaching Bitcoin to some one without them starting it first. They need to get information first in other ways before you become their mentor. Of course, such people are more likely to be redirected than you offering to teach them first.

Everyone will certainly be interested in learning it when they see that there are people who have succeeded in the field that their friends are doing and if indeed we can teach them, I don't think this is a problem as long as we explain to them in detail about the possible losses when they make mistakes in carrying out their activities. what we have conveyed to them and they must bear the consequences themselves from what you have conveyed, it is very true that the crypto market is very risky. If they have the courage to try it, they must also have the courage to bear what they experience and must not blame other people for their failure.

I'm also still not too brave to invite people and teach people about Bitcoin if it comes from me. But if they come to me with the intention of asking me to explain Bitcoin from the advantages and disadvantages, I am willing to teach them without expecting payment.

Exactly, This is the main thing that hesitates me on telling someone even up into my friends about on the opportunity that they could possibly get into this space specially into those friends or close people that we do know.Somehow not all people would really be having that kind of behavior on trying out to make themselves that greedy on not to share up these opportunities, it is really just that we dont really like on getting blamed
at the moment that they would really be losing money because this is usually the case on where people would be making out such reaction because we do know that losing money is never been that appealing and never been that a good experience. No matter how close you are with a friend or how long you've been but still it could be changed up in a snap on the moment that we are talking about money.

Just like on what been said that i would rather prefer on making myself that getting silent and would really be working in silent rather than on getting blamed basing up into those things that you had recommended.
On the moment that you would be tending to share up these opportunities then never ever make yourself that forgetting on telling them about the risks involved so that they would be at least wary
on the things that they've been dealing with.
