If you are aware that your neighbor living next door is into drug dealing and he come seek your advice how to buy Bitcoin, will you teach him?

What will you do if something like this is happening around you? Why would a drug dealer want to learn Bitcoin if not for a safer haven for running the business?

My mind isn't settled as I keep thinking different things, what is on your mind readers?

I don’t see any reason at all why you shouldn’t teach the pros and cons of cryptocurrency or bitcoin like you put it to someone who has the zeal and is willing to learn. It doesn’t matter if it’s about the said person using it for his underground lifestyle or not, that still isn’t going to make him not continue in the drug trade but, it could be a reason for him to stop.

I don’t know of any drug dealer that is very excited about the trade. Of course the money comes but the things they have to handle as per security issues, rival wars and the safety of there family is something they have to look out for and when it happens that they find this new means of investing and even making a good enough fortune, it could serve a reason as to why they have to quit the trade.

I don't think what you're saying is what the OP is thinking. What the OP is worried about is that if he teaches bitcoin to that neighbor, it means he has a close relationship with drug criminals, and if that neighbor is arrested for drug trafficking. Bad things are bound to happen to the OP. If it were me, I wouldn't care what they used bitcoin for but teaching bitcoin to criminals could make me an accomplice and possibly jail, so I wouldn't do that. I need to protect my own safety before thinking about helping others.

This could become a very sensitive issue... since if the law catches your neighbor, you could be blamed as an accomplice or as a safeguard of information, the fact of teaching people to use Bitcoin seems to me a great practice, since it is It is important that society learn about bitcoin, but regarding teaching a drug dealer, clearly as you say, he is looking to learn about Bitcoin, because he is interested in using it to hide or launder illegally obtained money. In such circumstances, it would be inappropriate and potentially illegal to assist them in that search… My advice really would be that if you feel uncomfortable or concerned about the situation, it is best to trust your instincts and consider seeking legal advice or reporting your concerns to the relevant authorities, Because if you were to refuse to teach him, you don't know how your neighbor might react... it's better to be prepared and safe.

OP, I have one question to ask: are you the only one who knows about Bitcoin in your place of residence? If you don't teach him or her about Bitcoin like he demanded, he will probably learn from another person. I wouldn't say what I would do if it were my situation. But if you don't want to teach him about Bitcoin, just tell him he should learn about Bitcoin elsewhere; let him know there are a lot of places to learn about Bitcoin. Perhaps you can't even tell if he needs Bitcoin to clear his money; he probably has been doing business for a long time, and all the while he didn't know about Bitcoin. Does that mean he wasn't clearing his money?

I believe the major challenge OP is facing in teaching his neighbour about Bitcoin is the fact that he is aware his neighbour deals on drugs which is very dangerous. So he is trying to stay clear off anything that would link him to his neighbour or eventually anything happens that his neighbour is caught. Not only that, being caught in the act is something that would make it obvious that Bitcoin is used to carry out illegal and illicit transaction thereby justifying the allegations of Bitcoin being used for Drug trafficking. This is likely the reason OP doesn't want to teach his neighbour.

If his intention is to learn about Bitcoin and not deal in drugs then yes! I will try to explain as much as possible about Bitcoin to them.

What comes straight to mind is embezzling the ill-gotten money, but is this even safe? My other neighbor knows I am into Bitcoin and he learned from me, I guess that's how this other neighbor knew, I told him to go meet the next neighbor but he said he is not ready to teach.

What will you do if something like this is happening around you? Why would a drug dealer want to learn Bitcoin if not for a safer haven for running the business?

My mind isn't settled as I keep thinking different things, what is on your mind readers?

If embezzling money isn't your making then you shouldn't be afraid about it.
He most likely knew about your knowledge of Bitcoin from other neighbors.

My advice would be to let them know about this forum and how to create posts here rest he can do on his own so you don't have to put your leg into the mud (if that's what you're worried about)

Why am I living next to a person who is connected with drugs, and why I havent done anything yet to stop that or change that situation - that will be my first thoughts about such situation. My other thoughts will be - why someone knows I am into Bitcoin. I would better keep that in secret. I would not teach such person anything about Bitcoin, as I dont know how things gonna go in future. Who knows what he will tell when he will be arrested. From a merry teacher I can quickly be turned into partner in crime.

Do you mean OP should move house and stay away from neighbors like that? But how to avoid it all when everyone has their own secret? What guarantees that OP's new neighbor won't be a drug dealer but a murderer? As long as we keep our distance from them, we will be safe with them, no need to stress because we won't know all their secrets until they are revealed. But I agree with you as well as many of the previous comments, OP should find a way to decline the offer to teach bitcoin to the other neighbor. It is still best to keep a certain distance from people who have illegal jobs.

There are no guarantee that new neighbors are not going to be drug dealers or worse, but living next to a drug dealer a do nothing about is wrong. Make an anonymous call and let police check him and his flat or house. OP dont need to move immediately, but he must first do something about that criminal element, instead of thinking should he teach him or not. My advice is either tell police about his activity, or ignore completely.

Criminals will not be stupid enough to hide drugs in the house or carry them with them at all times, so if OP doesn't have any proof and calling the police won't help either. I really find this solution unsafe at all unless OP has concrete evidence and is sure that the other drug dealer will be caught as soon as OP calls the police. Otherwise, the OP will be in jeopardy with his actions. I will agree with your 2nd solution, OP should ignore it entirely and continue living a normal life as before.

Yes, i will teach him how to buy Bitcoin so that he will grow financially and materially like the way other decentralized investors are growing in the society, and I believe he will never forget me for the Bitcoin impact I have impacted him. I think, such people know how to quit their main business and join Bitcoin investment that is safe and profitable when you buy at the right time and sell at the right time in the market. Drug dealers are not bad people when it comes to business, because they know how to invest their money in a particular project that will bring profits at the end of their investment which they will definitely pay attention to learn Bitcoin.

I am willing to teach everyone that is interested in bitcoin no matter what are their plans (but of course will never tell anything about my funds and similar thing) we are blessed to tell someone about how good crypto is so why deny that fact?
and you are just over thinking as there are other plans that may vary about his interest in bitcoin.
don't have second thought mate, teach the man but never engage in something about drugs or expose your self being with Him because that might lead you to other suspicion .

The fact that he is a drug dealer, he can use Bitcoin as an alternative to fiat when he is transacting. But I don't want to judge, he might have other purpose for wanting to learn how to buy and use Bitcoin.

Anyway, to answer the question, since I know what he is up to, I don't want to be the one to teach him even we're neighbors. Drug dealing is a criminal act and has a heavy punishment here. So associating myself to this neighbor is not a good idea.

Anything that seems to be an illegal act isn't safe at all. And that's why if you want to protect yourself and your family, you'll not get close to them. Possible that neighbor told the drug guy that you're into Bitcoin but are you not that scared at all?

If it's already there and he already knew that you're into Bitcoin, choose what you're going to answer wisely. He may ask some favor to you because the idea that a person that has Bitcoin could make them think you've got a lot of money and from there, you might get the fear of what I am saying.

Don’t complicate things. Teach if you know you’re capable on it and if you think the learner is passionate enough to learn. Regardless on what to do on his learnings, maybe that’s his personal concern. Besides, I don’t think being a drug dealer has something to do with learning how to invest, maybe he just needs another profitable investment that he can expect for his retirement. And bitcoin will perfectly suit for it. So just teach him if you think that will help him in the future.

If you believe that by teaching him how to use bitcoin, it will help him overcome his busniess and start a new life as a better person, then sure but if you fear that he might use it to improve his drug dealing business, I would advise against it. I mean It won't be that good to just use bitcoin for a way of payment of selling drugs, you just think what's the best for you and for him i guess:)

You better not teach him about Bitcoin if he is a drug dealer. Because I can already guess he wants to learn Bitcoin because he wants to use Bitcoin as a drug buying and selling transaction, and this is very dangerous if one day he is caught by the police, your name will be called by him as the person who taught him bitcoin. I mean you all know that narcotics are something that is strictly prohibited in many countries, now all the police in various countries are showing their seriousness in eradicating drugs, the police are stronger and better than drug dealers.

As long as you never want to know where the source of the income, then you are free to teach bitcoin without any risk to yourself. Anyone has the right to get correct information about bitcoin even if he is a drug dealer, but you has the right to make his own decision whether you pretend you don't know or don't want to teach him.

If it were me, I would teach him bitcoin regardless of whether he would abuse bitcoins or not. I really don't even want to know where his money comes from and what his job is.

Yes I will teach him, I have no reason not to teach him all what he wants to learn is how to buy bitcoin, and am not concerned about the business he is into, I will try my possible best to explain to him on how to buy the bitcoin, I will tell him the necessary things which he wants to know and that’s all.

Or maybe you are thinking he might end up using bitcoin in receiving payment or maybe he will end up using bitcoin in making payment in his deals, but I don’t think you should be concerned about what he is trying to use the bitcoin to do, he came to meet you so that you will teach him about bitcoin, just do your part and leave him, you don’t have to care about what he will be using bitcoin for.

And why do you think that’s what he is planning to learn about bitcoin, he has been doing his drug deal business which he is making payment or receiving payments in fiat currency, so why do you think he is planning to switch his payment method? He might just be hearing about bitcoin and he will also be interested in investing in bitcoin that’s why he came to meet you.

I don't know why people link bitcoin to crime activities, bitcoin is like Fiat Currency but the different is that, bitcoin is for digital payment while Fiat is for physical and digital, so the way Fiat is used can also be used with bitcoin so there is no big deal. Normally I don't like to teach outsiders unless the person is a student in the sch I am teaching. But if a neighbor or others come to learn bitcoin, I normally refer to the people I have already taught of bitcoin. And the expansion of Bitcoin is for everyone and there is no discrimination. The only you can say is, you learn the person you have taught teach him to avoid some issues. Probably through bitcoin he might changed his behaviour and most people are doing those things because there nothing to do to help themselves.

I don’t see any valid reason why you should not teach him about bitcoin. If he’s a drug dealer, so what? Everyone is entitled to learn about bitcoin regardless of what he is in the society. Just tell him about the basics of bitcoin and if he wish to invest, advise him to study first and understand his investment first before he decides to invest. That way, whatever is his intention, at least he’ll take caution when he start to invest in bitcoin. And whether he’ll lose or make profits, just leave it to him.

you are under no obligation to teach him how to buy bitcoins, for the good of you and your family you should limit your communication with him because nothing good will happen if you continue to interact with him.

of course he learns bitcoin to be able to store his money in the safest place where only he can access it or he wants to transact with other dealers/customers using bitcoin. because so far bitcoin is the safest means of payment that can be used by drug dealers and it's the safest way to be able to launder money from selling drugs.
