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

[Ishicryptic]

People often makes the mistake of attributing every cryptocurrency to be Bitcoin, I believe that some people will ignorantly think that Bitcoin is another name for cryptocurrency, and whenever they hear that a person lost their hard earned money in cryptocurrency, they will think that it is Bitcoin. My wife's friend was lamenting to her about how she was introduced to cryptocurrency, and with the promise of making a lot of money within a short time, she invested and now she can't sale the crypto, I told the young lady that she invested her money in a scam project, then I educated her about how Bitcoin works. If I hadn't enlightened her about Bitcoin, she might not ever believe whatever success stories that she hears about it, and I believe that many people have this misinformation about Bitcoin, because of the many shitcoins in the crypto market. Another reason why people don't hear much about Bitcoin success stories is because most Bitcoin investors don't like to anounce their Bitcoin success stories, they will rather keep it private.

Now my question is this, why have people not harmed some notable investors whom I believed have granted a lot of live interviews and explained how they started and how well they have profited in their various businesses why are they still breathing?

Maybe because most people are still humans. And the world is not as dark as it seems.

You're exaggerating too much, OP. Need I say that all famous investors should be attacked because we know about them? I think it all depends on the case, and conversations about confidentiality seem more like advice than an obligation. After all, when crossing the road, you look in both directions to be safe; the same thing works here, so as not to cause unnecessary fuss around you, they are not advised to shout about your profits.

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?

Maybe people does not fine to discuss yet their bitcoin success stories since they are not earning big yet since bitcoin is meant to be for long term investment and if you are short term trader then you maybe can earn small results. So maybe this is the reason why there's less people talking about their success since what they are interested is to discuss something about for long term which can help them to build more results.

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?

Maybe they are not confident to do that.

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?

Maybe they see that lose as a failure and they want to discourage you to continue. But if you make them understand that you are happy and gaining something then for sure later on they provably understand what you are doing with bitcoin investment then give their full support.

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?.

Because they are not totally happy with their results. But sometimes they try to share their lose because they want to have some venue to release their stress and get some sympathy from people who experience the same scenario.

Most people don't like hearing about successful people because of their Bitcoin investment because the wrong person is telling it, I mean you are in the wrong target of telling it to people who don't understand Bitcoin so they won't be interested in hearing your story, try telling it to people who understand Bitcoin, they will definitely be interested in hearing it, even become an inspiration for them and will be even more active in collecting bitcoins.

Bitcoin have taught people lesson and most of them can't forget the misery they've pass through because they decided to invest in bitcoin. Who understands the market will simply make smart decisions to gain enormous profits. Everyone is here for just one main target, that's winning. Not everyone believes the cock and bull story about these investors success in crypto. Anyone can easily come up with fabulous story and leaving everyone of us lost in our own world of thoughts.

I can't imagine what will happen to the investor when he reveals the profits he made when investing in Bitcoin, it will put them in danger, but well, we live in a diverse society, many ordinary people have never interested in bitcoin so when they hear words of success from bitcoin investors, they think it's all bullshit, I don't think we should worry about that, we just let those who don't like bitcoin think like that.

The thing is, how can a non-Bitcoiner know what bitcoin is if a person will not share their story? I mean the essence of the question is that many people dont listen or believe in bitcoin success story just becauss they are not interested because of the complexity and the risk of bitcoin, and we know that people tend to avoid things that dont know so its normal that many people are hesitant to bitcoin and we cant push them to understand or invest in bitcoin if they dont want to, its also bad that people will invest in bitcoin just because they got envy or jealous of others success thinking that they will also reach that success, which is sometimes resulting to many new investors losing money because they want the profit right away without establishing the necessary preparation such as the knowledge and honing skills, anyway conclusion is not everyone could be pursuade to believe in bitcoin.

I think it is because people do not expect much from the story.  To me, the most fascinating ones are those of the people up until 2012 who invested in Bitcoin.  After that, maybe C Z from Binance.

When you think of some body Rich from Bitcoin, you think of some body who purchased Bitcoin, kept it in their own Wallet and turned Rich.  So implicitly, I expect people to prefer a much more interesting story over something like this.

I still see many success stories it’s just that right now bitcoin has not yet gone to break its previous ath so not many yet have taken profit.

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 doubt that it’s a matter of boldness or bravery. They probably just want everyone to know their name and gloat. They are now successful after all.

Let’s wait until after the bull run I am sure many success stories will come out.

Some one of the success stories we are been seeing and hearing about are fake and most time they can be a way to make money from their thought. I don't think hearing about success stories is what we really needed. People wants to make money from the crypto space and not to hear about stories that will make them become too desperate about the market which could create unusual zeal that will instigate confidence that could make one to lost money. We just have to keep trying our best to learn more skills and make money from the crypto market.

[pinggoki]

Maybe because it's all the same thing to most people, most of us have already heard of the same stories and most of the time, it doesn't really help most of us when it comes to this kind of thing, I feel like that's the big reason why we don't listen to this success stories anymore, it finally became a trite thing for most of us that we'd just hear of this kind of story and think ourselves that it's pretty neat and good for them and then we move on with our lives. Also, there's not a lot of really successful bitcoin investors today that are making profits in the millions because look at how high the price of the bitcoin is right now, pretty sure that most of us probably don't have a lot of bitcoins to flex, maybe if there's more people that are early investors in bitcoin that they were able to buy bitcoin in huge quantities for a really cheap price, maybe we'd listen to them a little bit but the hype won't be for long.

Expressing something that has good value and is not wrong, especially as this can be a motivation for many people. Well, many people here are not only those who want to invest, but criminals are also targeting publications and finding out who the person is.

BTC is not worth $20 and it is now worth a lot if they can own it any way. I think maybe this is what makes BTC owners silent, even if it is published once it will threaten many things, including their own safety.

[Medusah]

Most people outside the Bitcoin community perceive it as a get-rich-quick scheme with no intrinsic value.  If that's their initial impression, imagine their reaction when they find out you've made ten times their annual income in a year.  It's akin to a 9-year-old earning your yearly salary in a month from making YouTube videos.

It's human psychology.  Envy feeding denial. 

[Yatsan]

Either they are just not interested or they got used of hearing such stories. It all has the same pattern; struggle, consistency, and success. In the first place, listening to these kind words won't mean anything if the aaudience won't do anything to make positive changes. With regards to people who are just uninterested with Bitcoin investment, that's just fine actually. There are other field of investments an investor could engage himself with. Some are just not into this industry's risk and that is a valid reason.

Another is misconception with Bitcoin itself as a currency and as a digital asset. Also with the idea of defining success; is it only earning big profit? For sure there's more to it.

[Z-tight]

pretty sure that most of us probably don't have a lot of bitcoins to flex, maybe if there's more people that are early investors in bitcoin that they were able to buy bitcoin in huge quantities for a really cheap price, maybe we'd listen to them a little bit but the hype won't be for long.

Right on point and this was exactly the point i raised in my earlier post in this topic, you cannot expect people to make just a fair profit and start sharing a success story about that, not to add the security risk in doing that.

Such success stories are popular with altcoins, in cases were people buy a lot of altcoins for a very low buying price and they are lucky that one of them pumps and gives them a huge profit; if you are not a whale or an early investor, you can't really make that kind of profit with BTC. But BTC is safer to invest in and it has use cases, unlike altcoins that people just gamble with.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

To sum up this question, a lot of people are scared to share their success stories in their journey through Bitcoin, and it's not everyone who will come here to tell you that they are running into losses in their Bitcoin investment. The success stories of old Bitcoin investors, according to history, are enough motivation for anyone who wants to invest in Bitcoin. Also, the price of Bitcoin can even serve as motivation for anyone who is losing money on their Bitcoin investment. For example, towards the beginning of this year, the Bitcoin price was not even up to $50k, but we can see how far the price has reached.

Famous and successful investors of today have never achieved that position in an instant, they started with a lot of losses and frustrations at first before getting the success they are enjoying right now. That’s why they deserved the respect and privacy to that. If they profit, let them enjoy it because they worked hard for it. There’s no reason for other people to plan an attack or harm them just because of their greed or envy, it’s just that they have all the right to gain respect and privacy in all the success they have been experiencing right now. They should serve as an inspiration instead, rather than seeing them as enemy.

[Dr.Osh]

I think this is just a matter of perspective from Bitcoin alone. I think the environment you have doesn't really like and know bitcoin. In fact, the people who are disappointed with bitcoin are the ones who probably didn't get much out of it and it wasn't what they thought it would be. It could be that they buy too quickly when prices are high, and sell during a bear market. Then they told it. Apart from that, many people think that bitcoin is a bad investment because many of them only saw bitcoin when it was hype, and when the price made a correction, they were disappointed. I think, if you really want to invest, then I think you just need to find this investment community in your place that can encourage you. Also, try to focus on this investment rather than hearing other people's stories. If your family doesn't like you investing, then do it for yourself. As long as it doesn't harm other people, then stay optimistic.

When someone tells about their success in a way that is wrong or difficult to understand, this will make other people misunderstand investing in Bitcoin and if we tell people who really don't like Bitcoin, of course they will never care about what they have achieved. by other people through Bitcoin, yes of course for those who like investing in Bitcoin of course they will be interested in hearing the story because they might apply what that person has done so that there is a possibility that they can achieve success like other people.

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.

What can a person gain by sharing their success story with bitcoin? That is the first question you need to answer in order to know why things are this way, and while the personality profile of the bitcoin investor is changing, it is fair to say that early on, the ones that invested in bitcoin were highly interested on their privacy.

So they are not going to share their success story no matter what, as in this way they will attract a bunch of unwanted attention to themselves for no gain at all.
