Do you introduce bitcoin and crypto to your friends?

[alastantiger]

As many people don't aware of bitcoin and other crypto, do you take initiative to explain about bitcoin to others? I am spreading information and knowledge about btc to others, advantages of btc. I have observed some people showing interest or heared about btc some where. Let's spread the btc world to others, cheers.

It'll not be good if we decided to hide the news of Bitcoin and not share it to others. Bitcoin can help many people hence when there's an avenue to help others know about Bitcoin, we shouldn't hesitate to tell them. Introducing Bitcoin to others will too help make Bitcoin to become more popular and others that haven't invested in Bitcoin would decide to do that and it'll also help increase the value of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin isn't a scam hence you shouldn't be afraid to tell others about it and for those that'll decide to counter you to tell you how harmful Bitcoin is to the economy. Show them some countries that have adopted Bitcoin and how their economy didn't collapse but it's doing alright. Bitcoin isn't a threat to the economy but if can help it because when people have money to spend, it'll help keep the economy operating.

I did that in the past but they didn’t want to know about its tech. They only wanted to get rich quick. They weren’t interested in anything else. One of them bought lots of coins with the money he was going to buy a house originally. Then bitcoin tanked and he panic sold his stash because he freaked out when he saw his money got halved… I don’t know the exact story of the other ones but I know none of them became rich because they probably followed a similar path with their trades as my other friend.

Then I stopped caring about it. At this point everyone heard of btc anyway. There is no point in explaining anything to anyone.

Well, I did already, but not in a situation that urged them to invest like we were selling something. I only share knowledge and necessary things for interested individuals and really have the capability to invest. It is about saying that choosing the right person for this is necessary.

If we think we are done after discussing them, I said no because they will still need guidance until they gain self-confidence and enough knowledge. That is why only a few people got this work, because of our responsibility, and some are even afraid to be blamed once they fail.

The situation is a bit different in my country. Bitcoin is banned there, and sharing or discussing it publicly is unsafe. We have dozens of friends in a friend circle and we cannot trust everyone in the same way. I have dozens of friends but I only shared it with two or three of my friends. I believe they won't tell anyone about it.

One of my friends bought 70 worth of Bitcoin years ago and it's now over 280 USD and he thanks me for that. I did not ask him to invest, but he did it himself. He had his Bitcoin in his coinbase account which I moved to an Electrum wallet for him. I even know his seed phrases and he trusts me. But I suggested he create a new one and move his funds but he is unable to do it.

[Swordsoffreedom]

I'm not against people taking the time and proactively introducing bitcoin to those around them, but I think it's unnecessary. Because with the development of the internet and technology today, I believe most people have heard and known about bitcoin to some extent. If they are really interested in bitcoin, they can learn about it themselves or proactively contact you to ask. But if they don't want to take the time to learn about it or ask you, it means they don't care about it. If they don't care, why do we waste time explaining and convincing them?

I will be very enthusiastic and willing to share with people if they proactively ask me about bitcoin but I will not waste my time just to introduce and convince people about bitcoin or anything.

Though my current knowledge about Bitcoin isn't as vast as that of experts, I'm already aware of the basic importance of the mother to coin to the current global economy as well as it's future purpose and that's why I've taken it upon myself to introduce as many close folks as possible to Bitcoin. It's my own little way of sharing my knowledge of what I term as "one of the best technological innovations in modern day global economy". I do that with all sense of responsibility that is to say, I personally feel that I owe it to anyone around me who's ignorant of what Bitcoin stands, the need to introduce and explain Bitcoin to them to the best of my knowledge.
Bitcoin solved the issue of decentralization in currency distribution and the fact that it's a digital currency that doesn't need be be physically moved around before it can be used makes it more security friendly and easy-to-use for users of the coin. Of all the people I've introduced Bitcoin to, none have kicked against the idea of using it and that I think goes a long way to tell how Satoshi Nakamoto was able to solve one of the major problems of humanity by creating and launching Bitcoin.

There is a lot of information about Bitcoin on the Internet now, so for all interested people, it would be right to start their lessons from there. I am not looking for students; I do not impose knowledge about Bitcoin on them, but if someone asks, I will always show a good and complete source, a kind of school where you can get very good knowledge step by step. And yes, this is this forum. I will not tell the news that it is the best for people who are full of desire to learn and communicate slowly. For all those in a hurry, who cannot or do not want to read, there are social networks. I think everyone should become interested in Bitcoin in their own time, the right time for them, and there is no need to rush it if people are not ready yet.

Yes I introduce it to them but I didn't bother to explain Bitcoin to them so well since don't want to do any hard selling just to make them believe that Bitcoin is good. Its up to them if they do further research since if they show interest and want to learn more provably this could change their life especially if they are starting to earn on Bitcoin and other altcoins out there.

Really good to spread word about Bitcoin but I choose people I'm discussing it, because its not good to introduce it to close minded people since they might think about you are scamming them. That's why I just point out those basic information they need to learn and its their job to study about it. But for sure there would be a time that people would just learn about it since Bitcoin now is getting lots of attention in mainstream.

I completely agree with you. There is a lot of information about Bitcoin available on internet and this forum is very good place for people to learn more. It is great that if anyone willing to share what he/s knows with others who are interested. I also like approach of letting people learn at their own speed. Understanding Bitcoin and how it works takes time and effort. With providing helpful and supportive community we can encourage more people to learn about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

With Internet nowadays, it's easy to search about Bitcoin and with rapid growth of AI, ChatGPT for example, people can ask these AI bots for any question they have and they can receive acceptable good answers as their start of exploration on Bitcoin.

Introduce Bitcoin to them is enough, if if they are fearful enough or lazy enough or both, to don't do their own research and practice buying and selling by themselves with small money first, they can ask you to purchase bitcoin for them on behalf of them. It's risky unwanted task and I don't recommend you or any people doing this. People if are interested in Bitcoin, want to get profit from Bitcoin investment, need to do it by themselves. By this practice, they will understand more about Bitcoin, including risk and it's better for them.

If you purchase Bitcoin on behalf of them, store bitcoin for them, if by any reason that wallet was hacked, you will be responsible for it, and they don't mind to listen to your explanation about that accident.

I would agree that there are a lot of information on the internet, and If you will go to Google trends,



As we can see, it's almost being search all over the world. And I think people asking is normal, I guess they really wanted to get first hand experience on people who really invest on Bitcoin and they know what's it like.

However, you might just want to share this info to your families or close friends. There are now risks going into public, like theft. So still it's better to maintain our privacy or anonymity and avoid sharing your wallets or how much you have in public.

I think you need to learn more about Bitcoin before introducing to others because I see you need more learning. Although teaching people Bitcoin is good but if you are well knowledgeable to teach them you are good to go. But then you should try to understand wether such person is really interested in Bitcoin or not. Because most people we claim wanting to learn but are not serious. After teaching they might not be serious anymore.

[bettercrypto]

It seems like I don't remember that I told my acquaintance that they bought bitcoin, as long as I always mentioned that they always do their own research, because of course they are better off finding their own attitude.

I actually discover them because they don't want to blame me when they lose or lose its price in the crypto industry market

[kotajikikox]

Well, I did already, but not in a situation that urged them to invest like we were selling something. I only share knowledge and necessary things for interested individuals and really have the capability to invest. It is about saying that choosing the right person for this is necessary.

I do wonder how can you know who would be the right person to tell bitcoin to? I mean I do not report all my assets and how much money I have to my friends so they have no idea how much I have and whether I am capable of investing in bitcoin. So, I could only assume that other people are doing this as well. We do not know what people are completely capable of.

If we think we are done after discussing them, I said no because they will still need guidance until they gain self-confidence and enough knowledge. That is why only a few people got this work, because of our responsibility, and some are even afraid to be blamed once they fail. 

That is good of you since you do not just leave them alone after you have told them only a few details about bitcoin. Leaving them alone to fend off for themselves could end up really bad and in the end you may get blamed.

When I discovered Bitcoin in 2014-2015 thank to Freebitco, I quickly fell in love with this coin. Since 2016, I have become actively involved in Bitcoin and I started promoting Bitcoin everywhere, especially with my friends and relatives. At first, people were interested about what's Bitcoin and how it works but their main priority was if it's possible to earn money by buying Bitcoin. Probably 100% of people I've introduced to Bitcoin, only cared about profit.
The way I was trying to initiate a conversation about Bitcoin was by mentioning - "Do you know what's Bitcoin". They would answer me with no and then ask me back - "What is it?" Then I talked about Bitcoin and blockchain technology.
Btw recently I don't talk much about Bitcoin because I stopped wasting my time on others, now I'm focused on my job and myself.

These days it's hard to find anyone who haven't heard about Bitcoin. People are aware that its prise is growing up, however, there is a thing that keeps most of them away from becoming a Bitcoin owner. It is its price.

How does the price keep people away from becoming bitcoiners, if you take a closer look at bitcoins course of development, you will understand that even at $100k, BTC can still be considered to be 'cheap', based on what it could be in the near future. However, people do not have to buy one BTC, they can buy in smaller sums and gradually grow their bags. Take note that BTC is also a currency, a decentralized and censorship resistant one, so that is another attraction to use it.

Some may show interest and eagerness to learn, while others do not care at all, as they still think that bitcoin is nothing but a Ponzi scheme. This is the reason why I only chose the people I will share bitcoin information with, only my family and my closest circle of friends. However, if some people will approach me on giving details about bitcoin, I always make a point to discuss to them clearly but I also encourage them to never rely on me but do their own research and studies as well.

That’s so thoughtful spreading bitcoin knowledge, I support the idea in any way either using different example to educate but, the basic knowledge first is always necessary for those who are interested to buy and hold. First try by explaining how bitcoin work not the only enticing feature about bitcoin else they’ll get everything wrong, bitcoin market is not always stable and for anyone who wants a quick investment should avoid bitcoin investment because it’s not necessary introducing bitcoin to the crowd and at the end they ended up with loss rather they must be able to hold for long and enjoy the benefit. I tried doing this honestly it’s difficult talking about bitcoin especially in a situation when the person is not interested besides investing should be done willingly.

[coolcoinz]

Yes, I did. I told a few people but only 1 of them really invested. I never tried to be persuasive, just told them the truth, that it's an opportunity they wouldn't want to miss.

Most of them ignored it because they were doing good financially and felt like it was unnecessary risk. One guy was very poor, doing the worst of all my friends, and he ended up getting some bitcoin in the early days, before it went to $20k for the first time. Now he's doing good, at least as good as the rest of them if not better.

I can understand why some of them chose not to buy bitcoin. We can compare it to a race where you're on the second or third place and could take a shortcut, but it could cost you the whole race if you get caught. They chose the safe option and kept running to get that 3rd place. The guy running last had nothing to lose, so he took the shortcut.
