Why Are People Not Interested To Listen To Success Stories Of Bitcoin Investors?

[aylabadia05]

Viewed from a positive perspective, not a negative one. For people who understand everything about Bitcoin, privacy may be the reason people keep quiet with a number of assets they own. It's not that they don't easily believe in people's success stories with Bitcoin, maybe they don't really care because the goals of the people I mean also have the same goals as the Bitcoin they own.

The question is why don't they dare to use social media accounts to share their success stories even with fake media accounts? For those who care about privacy, this is not an opportunity to be used as a promotional event because it can invite danger to themselves. Let alone them, maybe I wouldn't do it either.

Maybe in person they would be more interested to hear cause they know they are actually someone who becomes successful or even failed as an investor but over internet it's full of made up stories so people don't really bother at all. And why does anyone has to announce their success or failure to anyone? All they need to do is keep it for themselves and which will be helpful for them in their future apart from that it's their choice to share with others or keep it for themselves.

1) My question now is this, does it mean people no longer profit in Bitcoin investment but yet there are informations about the increasing number of Bitcoin investors?

People are making profits everyday and that's because they know and understands the risk involved. If you share your story to people how you made money from Bitcoin investment, it will looks cool and all that but deep down, the more you look into how profits are made, the more you see and if the person you share you story to the encounter the other side of bitcoin, they wouldn't be able to endure it. It's better to remain hidden and enjoy your alone.

2)  Why are people not bold enough to use fake social media accounts to talk about their success stories after making profits in Bitcoin investments since they want to maintain privacy?

I don't think one need to prove to be to that extent, it doesn't make sense. Why should I prove to people that I made money, it's not about privacy but looks more like obsession trying all means to make people to invest, if the don't want to, I wouldn't hide to convince anyone.

3) Why does it take my family members who abused me when I encountered a loss in my investment to listen to my success story even when they have seen enough evidence?
4) Why do people find it difficult to announce here when they recover from their losses but they come out to cry when they have a little loss?.

From my own experience, it's not easy to hold Bitcoin, the fear of been a first timer and the fear of not making anything is exhausting then all of a sudden I made something, I now need to open my diary and start reading to people about my journey, I will be more concern on how to make more and increase my investment than writing long epistle to covince people.

Personally, I don't think I have the right answers to this question otherwise I wouldn't have brought it up here for members of the forum to
have a discussion about it but I hope you don't mind to give your honest thoughts.

Over the years there has been a lot of sad stories regarding the people who lost money as a result of wrong investment plans on cryptocurrency (Bitcoin) we see them channel most of the stories to bitcoin mainly because it is the most popular cryptocurrency they know or the people who told them the stories mentioned bitcoin since they believe people will give them more attention if they talk about the most known cryptocurrency( Bitcoin).

I stand to be corrected if this thread is not suitable in this board but I think we need to be Intentional in what ever thing we post here since it will encourage some people and also discourage some people depending on their level of understanding, this post is the result of my experience and I think I can boldly say my investment journey has been 70% profit, 30% loss, the enemies of Bitcoin did a bad work by helping me to know more about Bitcoin.

From my understanding, I believe people are not interested in listening to the success stories of Bitcoin investors because the story is mostly framed and always involves the good side of the story. Besides, it is not something that always educates the newbies so they won't venture into previous mistakes made by others but it's always a story that only boosts the confidence of newbies that crypto investment is always about making a profit.
The sad aspect of it is that it makes newbies take the wrong step and have them believe crypto is a scam.

1) My question now is this, does it mean people no longer profit in Bitcoin investment but yet there are informations about the increasing number of Bitcoin investors?

Why we see that there is an increasing number of bitcoin investors can be attributed to the fact that we are seeing a shift in the attitudes and beliefs of the general public towards bitcoin. There is an increase in bitcoin awareness worldwide more than we have ever seen.

And some of the things that contributed to this is the bitcoin ETF approval/institutional adoption, then the bitcoin halving that happened earlier,  and generally people just have a positive feeling about bitcoin. They have watched from the sidelines and seen how resilient it is. In 2023 it jumped to around $16k up to $67k as at today.
New investors are optimistic.

The halving of course contributed a lot as to why people want to get onboard the Bitcoin family and make investment as much as returns because the market didn't crash, neither did the price of Bitcoin pump so hard or go so dip that one can't profit from by either HODLing or trading as the case may be and also is the case of not giving a damn about someone's story because it is indeed doable and with a forum like this that is open to teach the necessary knowledge and skills, a successful story would do little other than tickle ones fancy for the time being and also be a motivation to act because success is sure in all entirety.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

The reason most people do not pay attention to success stories of Bitcoin investors is because most people who are truly successful in Bitcoin prefer remaining hidden and will never flaunt their wealth on social media. Majority of people who share their supposed success stories turn out to be scammers looking for who to lure into their schemes. They make it look like when you invest into their project or the projects they are following, you will become rich overnight. People have fallen victims to these kinds of things, hence most people are skeptical about people sharing their success stories, especially online.

I understand that sharing your success stories with close friends and relatives that you want to also invest in Bitcoin will motivate them so much, but I think there should be a limit to the level of information you divulge to people to avoid exposing yourself to risk.

Bitcoin promote anonymity and privacy and those who really hit it big avoid public attention for security reasons. Scammers are very loud about their assumed investments just to get the attention of unsuspecting and uninformed individuals.

The greatest success indication is open there at the current price of bitcoin and the gap in the price compared to other low level coins.  Its enough evidence to know bitcoin is successful. I don't buy the idea of telling anybody every success story of mine because it  raises unnecessary attention. I might tell a few to motivate and I'm more afraid of sharing my success stories with family members to avoid over dependence or sense of entitlement on my own hard earned funds.

There are many individuals who do not understand the difference between the different cryptocurrency that we have, they consider all of them to be the same thing therefore when they're telling their stories, they refer to the coins that they had bought as Bitcoin when it wasn't Bitcoin that they bought. They think that every cryptocurrency is as Bitcoin as they think they'll make same profits that those individuals that invested in Bitcoin are getting but they won't.

They don't listen to success stories because they think that they're fake. They already have the mindset that cryptocurrency are scams that no individual is making money from but only the scammers are the ones making money therefore they don't want to believe anything that says cryptocurrency is good. People don't listen to goodnews but are more interested in sad news because it gives them satisfaction.

A fake social media accounts talking about success story in profits after Bitcoin investment looks very suspicious and people may not easily believe the story coming from an account that is not real. If I am the one who reads such a story, what will come to my mind is that the story has been fabricated by a person behind these fake accounts to attract people who are interested in making their Bitcoin investment a success, to their DM's for private conversations that will end up being something that the person later regrets.

One of them is the tax office that we can avoid, because if we have assets at a certain level we will be charged a wealth tax, besides that we also avoid friends or surroundings that might make them think that we have a lot of money and they can borrow from us, so because of that some people remain silent and do not indulge in their assets, besides that we can also be the target of bad people because we have a lot of money in bitcoin.

But there are some people who deliberately indulge their wealth and with the aim of many followers on social media then they create classes and people enter their group to listen to their investment lectures.

Sometimes people are lazy to listen to success stories including more deception on social media, especially after the many cases of fraudulent investments, so when they hear the phrase investment, people who don't understand investment will be skeptical.

What I can feel for now is that when I try to show off, we will definitely be the center of attention and things like this are definitely annoying for those of us who are still in anonymity, which makes it a little complicated if we uphold anonymity, why do we show off extraordinary benefits that will definitely invite many parties to see.
Besides, above the wind there is still wind. When I really want to try to show off my success in bitcoin then surely I have to reflect on those whales who even move without us knowing who they are but the benefits far exceed what we get so in this case I don't want to try to make them laugh.

Why not do it with a fake account or something else, the answer is actually simple. Why do that because indeed when we do it with other pseudonyms and just to make others proud it is also not very useful for myself because indeed things like that in my opinion will actually invite more people who want to know us and there are even some people who have bad intentions who are already monitoring us.
So by looking at this I would prefer to stay as it is with bitcoin and portopolio enjoyed by myself without the need to show off to others.

[Z-tight]

Who cares? I don't care about anybody's story. Hopefully, they don't care about mine! Brah! All I need are some tasty waves and a cool buzz and I'm fine!!

This one too, privacy and anonymity is important and sharing stories of how much money you have in BTC goes against it, nobody has to know how good your investments are, i know some people feel they have to tell people to boost their ego, but it is just another way to make yourself a victim of a $5 wrench attack. There are so many good things about BTC, and one does not have to share a personal story of theirs when talking to people about it.

@op - Well, if I must be honest with you, I did tell you that success stories mean to nothing in the world that we live in today, most especially in cryptocurrency, basically because one man's success does not guarantee that the next man will succeed as if he should start exactly what the other man is doing.

The above is on the abstract level though, and coming back to the main discussion now, I would say some people don't listen to success stories because they are not interested in what ever is being talked about, like I believe some of us will agree, doing bitocin and cryptocurrencies in general is not something any body should be forced into, or cajoled into, if I am completely not interested in bitcoin, I won't bother listing to the success stories of those are into it, i believe this is the simplest of answers and not too hard to understand.

[nelson4lov]

Why does anyone really need to share a success story about Bitcoin? For a project of this caliber that have existed for more than a decade, there's been more than enough success stories to go round already and whether people decide to share their success stories or not is none of anybody's business. Tbh, its really not necessary because Bitcoin was not created to be some kind of get rich or financial empowerment scheme where you have to share success stories regarding the asset price rather than the core benefits that the network offers to the global financial system..

We all have very unique experiences when it comes to cryptocurrency and in investing so it’s true that doing something that someone else did will not guarantee you success. However I think it sheds a positive light on bitcoin and crypto. It shows you that this can indeed change your life however you should be careful and make your own research

1) My question now is this, does it mean people no longer profit in Bitcoin investment but yet there are informations about the increasing number of Bitcoin investors?

Bitcoin investment is definitely increasing in profits but just that the investors do not go around making stories of how they grew their investment. Take a look at the inflow of investors into bitcoin and the Market value you will see that the whole thing is growing. Anybody that invested into bitcoin let’s say since last year is already in profits at the moment but there is no need to just go around talking about

2)  Why are people not bold enough to use fake social media accounts to talk about their success stories after making profits in Bitcoin investments since they want to maintain privacy?

Yes bitcoin gives uses the ability to be anonymous but some investors still go ahead to actually disclose their identity and bitcoin holding information. I have noticed this cases in numerous social media posts and why I deduce is that people that do this are intentional about it and use it as click bait to have more crypto enthusiasts mostly newbies following them. They also use this to set up mentorship programs and mostly charge newbies for them.

3) Why does it take my family members who abused me when I encountered a loss in my investment to listen to my success story even when they have seen enough evidence?
4) Why do people find it difficult to announce here when they recover from their losses but they come out to cry when they have a little loss?.

The thing is even as a family no one wants to associate with failure so they bash you when you lose and bask with you when you win

People you see announcing their losses here are either looking for a way to help them recover their lost funds or are just trying to play the victim card and probably think they could get some help.

If nothing else, it will give inspiration to others that crypto or bitcoin market has positive impact on their life. However, do take note that the experience of one person would not be the same for the other person. It depends on how are you managing your bitcoin assets, your entry and exit. And how long are you waiting before you sell your coins. In other words, each investor has their own path on this market. We can give a good example but it doesn't mean, each one can replicate the success of that person.

[btc78]

People don’t share success stories as much anymore due to fear of safety. Many now are attempting to rob and hack people with crypto. If they know that you so much as hold some crypto they may put you in danger. So people don’t share their success stories anymore but it doesn’t mean that there’s less success now in bitcoin.

[oktana]

1) People are still making money from investing in bitcoin.

2) When you start making the money they are making, you may understand why because your view on many things would change. You would find it unnecessary to go create an account to talk about your success. I think.

3) What interests you might not interest them, just like What works for you might not work for them.

4) I’m not sure. Maybe because recovery is usually you getting back to the starting point and not like you made profits?

What you say is very true, of course the experience that other people have in the crypto world may not necessarily be possible for other people to do and they will be able to get the same results and I think this is exactly the same as other things, because this also applies to other things. others and this really depends on their good fortune.
Listening to other people's success stories and trying it, of course this is not the right choice and it would be better if we could do our own research as you said and also have to do it carefully because this involves financial matters so as not to experience losses in crypto.

1. They still profit in bitcoin, it's just that it's not a mind blowing or exciting compared to those that have invested in bitcoin in the early days, it's difficult to make a quick million when you invest in bitcoin right now, the stories of these quick millions are already taken by meme coins and altcoins as they've got the lowest prices especially the new ones and at the same time they all have the potential to go up in prices so quickly that if you buy a ton of them, you can expect that you would be getting some really big profits.
2. Because most people in the social media already knows about fake people and they have a share of them in their years of scrolling through their phones and computers so they're probably not going to be that gullible when it comes to people that share success stories that are too good to be true, a lot of them will call these people out.
3. Because they're an abusive family, most of the time, in an abusive family, it comes with the package of manipulation, shaming, and many other negative stuff so that's the reason why it's so difficult to make them listen when they don't care what you have to say.
4. Probably for the reason that that kind of thing should be personal and that it's up to that person whether they want to share something about their recovery from losses and many other things that they've survived and it just so happens that people are really privy when it comes to that and we have to respect that privacy.
