BITCOIN: Give people time!

1. Give people time; they will show interest when the time is right for them. Their timing may not be same with yours, if you've done your own job of talking to them about it, then that's fine.

People don't take a sudden and immediate decision because either they don't believe bitcoin at first or they have not such a large amount to buy bitcoin that time. People wants to make investment but they don't want to take loan for it as they have no experience and if they do so then their borrowed money will be at risk. Everyone needs an exact time because they have to collect money for it and sometimes people make their decision with family as without informing them they do not act by themselves.

2. The amount of energy and time you expend preaching to someone about bitcoin is not a warranty that he will accept what you're offering. Maybe not immediately!

There is not guarantee that about which you are talking to the people will 100 percent accept it because trust the words of stranger is very difficult and also if you don't know anything about bitcoin before so without identification you will be unable to accept it instantly.

While educating yourself is an essential and fundamental step, it alone may not suffice. If you truly want to thrive, you need to focus on being profitable, similar to a game where winning each battle is crucial. Surviving isn't the ultimate goal; it's about achieving success and profitability.
I think that with the goal of surviving, everything will just be built upon your way and that's where being profitable and successful will be achieved.
But it's true that it's not just all about surviving because it's like that you're just here to do things temporarily and you've got no clear goal.
Thus, everything that you do including learning the market, bitcoin and other things that are related to it will make you achieve not just success but also knowledge.
Exactly. You need to overcome first all the risk and make sure to survive from the inevitable losses that might come your way. Thus, once survival is achieved, eventually it will pave way to hit the goal of success and makes you highly profitable. Although not all investors have succeeded in the end because of their inappropriate attitude and strategies, but most likely if you just follow the basic steps in bitcoin investing, you will always win in the end.

Letting them know their right from their left about bitcoin and the possible ways on how to avoid those risk where possible.

Is this an idiomatic expression? Smiley

Sorry mate but can you explain further this statement of yours, I don't quite get it.
Yes mate, it's an idiomatic expression and it will be a pleasure to  further expatiate on it to your  clarity.

The statement means explaining to people all they need to know about bitcoin from the benefits to the risks involve.

The left: stands for the risks.

The right: stands for the benefits.

I suppose this explanation is clear to understand.


Quote from: Lida93 on September 18, 2023, 08:27:16 AM
It's an error to know about only the benefits of a thing with no knowledge about it's ensued risks.

Obviously, because if we are intol investing in business, we should consider both risk and reward as it does not guarantee easy money.
Those who would it is, surely is uneducated about bitcoin.
Each business investment carries its peculiar risk and profits, and to survive in it you must have yourself educated on the risks and benefits.

Wow, this is pretty cool and people just need to know what they are ought to do and don't need to start trying too hard to convince people about Bitcoin and what they need to know. The power of convincing someone about a thing is the result they see. This is a power tools that will make people to see the benefits of being an investor rather than a Bitcoin sadist. There are people that had been pessimistic about the Crypto market, not because they want the market to keep falling but that could be as a result of ignorance that is making them to see the crypto market as a bad omen. We don't need to fall it, the results will attract them fully.

True. Acquiring knowledge and honing your skills will definitely lead to its success. Though there are tough roads to overcome but as long as you conquer them, everything will be fine. Bitcoin may not be a get rich quick and should be learned the hard way at the start, but if you have high understanding and patience throughout your bitcoin journey, no matter how unpredictable the market is, you will end up reaping your success and massive profits.

Not all efforts of acquiring knowledge and honing skills lead to success.  Often times one needs luck to seal a deal.  Also, smart thinking can also greatly help.  There is this hidden factor that affects one's success except knowledge and talent.  Decision-making also plays a huge part especially when it is a smart one.


Over the course of Bitcoin's existence, there are lots of people who give up on Bitcoin but even more people who get into Bitcoin.  People who were once hesitant are now getting into Bitcoin because of the government change of stance from being hostile to neutral to adoptive.  Giving time for people to adjust and understand Bitcoin is one of the best approach one can do.  Forcefully making them believe will only end up with shaky understanding of Bitcoin so let the natural process take place.

The road will always be tough, whether you're experienced or someone who's new to this. You'll get to see the bumpy road and that's no joke to process and deal with.

Once understood, Bitcoin is a game for most patient people that will be rewarded someday and that's the ideal goal for many investors if you've got no asset for yourself but only being patient.

I have already learned a lesson from this and no longer have any desire to explain anything to anyone or impose my opinion. This will only happen if the person himself asks me about it. I have such a friend. He is poorly versed in such issues and asks me to talk about those points where there are gaps in knowledge. Here, of course, I come to the rescue. It's not difficult for me to devote some time.
I am glad that after all these “lectures” a person moves on to the practical part without any questions. Yes, I myself am interested in this topic, but I don’t have time to study everything in detail. There is too much information to read and absorb. I present everything in a condensed form.

In my opinion, we should not impose our will on anyone, if someone shows interest in Bitcoin, then we should help him.We must tell people about the benefits of Bitcoin and try to get them to do their own research and information in Bitcoin after our guidance.Also, people should be made aware of the risks involved in Bitcoin, because profits can be made, but there is also the risk of loss.


I think if your friends or relatives are less familiar with Bitcoin or such issues, you should definitely guide them well.Of course, those who are interested in such topics have to find time and it takes time. If you don't have time, you can't go into these topics in detail.Do not impose your opinion on anyone, but never stop trying to explain because our explanation can help someone.So we should help people in every forum as far as we have information we should share with them.
I know you're saying, "dont impose," but dont we have an obligation to help the ignorant? Especially with bitcoin? Because we are bitcointalker. Sure, provide the good, the bad, and the ugly to anyone who shows interest. And yes, Bitcoin is a completely new financial world, not simply another stock

Adopting the "let them do their research" approach is fine, but how many people actually comprehend ledgers, blockchain technology, or even the fundamental economics of Bitcoin? Making sure they dont burn out in a market they dont understand is more important than imposing. Yes, you should lead your family and friends, but lets also be the voice of reason and tell them to be careful and not jump in without a life jacket

Looks like you didn't read my post carefully, I clearly mentioned both benefits and risks of Bitcoin. The purpose of my imposition was that we do not force our will on anyone, but my purpose is not that we do not inform people about Bitcoin,Rather, I clearly wrote that we should inform our close friends and relatives about both the advantages and disadvantages of Bitcoin. People who are interested in Bitcoin must be informed about Bitcoin because Bitcoin can give us future returns that cannot be expected from any other investment.

Of course we should help people who don't know anything about Bitcoin, if we do our best, more people will be attracted to Bitcoin and more people will be willing to invest in Bitcoin. Wherever we invest, we have to think about both profit and loss, but the Bitcoin situation is more complicated than other investments,so here it is important to know the risks involved before investing in Bitcoin.So that people don't get hurt by investing in Bitcoin without thinking, experience and knowledge.

It's easier to deal with when those we talking to about bitcoin showed interest on their accord and requested to be taught. The atmosphere is not subjected to argumentative discussions and discrediting views from the learner as the interested is already built. What next they can do is to delve into doing their own research about all that was explained to them about bitcoin but this is not so with those people that have no interest but we are the ones trying to convince them about it

I do agree that telling someone who has no knowledge or interest in Bitcoin is just wastage of your time and effort. Better spend time explaining Bitcoin to those who recently jumped into Bitcoin or either are interested in Bitcoin. Bitcoin is something that involves money and people are not very easily convinced to risk there money with something that they don't know. If I talk about myself, I am the one who started exploring Bitcoin after getting info online. No one convinced me to invest in Bitcoin.

One mistake that all 3 of you are making is imposing your thoughts on others. You are a person who likes new things and likes to explore, but that doesn't mean everyone has that mindset. Furthermore, you must know that most people will be very hesitant when hearing about new things, so once you decide to introduce bitcoin to them, you need to be mentally prepared that there is a high possibility that they will refuse instead of listening.

If it were me, I wouldn't listen to my son's advice because I'm the one raising him, and his finances completely depend on me, how can he teach me to be rich? That's like a servant teaching his master how to get rich, isn't it unreasonable? Audience and results are two important factors when we want to introduce bitcoin or give them financial advice.

I tried to talk to my dad about bitcoin, but he didn't really listen. instead, he called me dumb for sending money online to someone. he thought i was telling him to invest because i saw it on youTube.
so, he didn't listen to me and didn't invested in Bitcoin.

from this, I have learned that do not try to tell people to invest in things because if they lose money, they might blame you. so, it's better not to give investment advice.

If you want to introduce someone to Bitcoin or other investments, you must inform them of the risks involved so that he does not complain if he loses. The reason for this is that some people simply tell people to invest and tell them the benefits involved without informing them of the risks, I believe that if you inform them the risks and benefits he will decide whether to invest or not,  if people are hiding opportunity i don't think even you will be successful, Is good to share opportunity to others so that both of you will achieve your goals.

You know, some people do not believe in online investments because of scammers, they believe that all online investments are bad. That is why it can be difficult for someone to accept what you are offering to him because some of them have been scammed. People who believe in you will accept your offer if you can demonstrate your success in investing in Bitcoin so that they can believe you and join you.

I tried to talk to my dad about bitcoin, but he didn't really listen. instead, he called me dumb for sending money online to someone. he thought i was telling him to invest because i saw it on youTube.
so, he didn't listen to me and didn't invested in Bitcoin.

from this, I have learned that do not try to tell people to invest in things because if they lose money, they might blame you. so, it's better not to give investment advice.
You made the same mistake I made a few years ago when trying to give my friends a Bitcoin investment recommendation. Not the best idea, as it turns out. They then called me a fraudster and after that they practically didn’t talk to me. This is what such good intentions lead to. Indeed, let people decide for themselves what they need for life. There is no need to impose yourself on them, as this is fraught with dire consequences.
For me to this day, that incident became an excellent lesson from which I learned a lot of useful experience.
We all have had our fair share of dissenting responses from those we felt we want to do a service by sharing the idea of bitcoin investment to. And it's highly sadden particularly for those that didn't just reject the idea alone but added curse words and insults to our person for something they could have calmly said "NO  I am not interested, thank you".

One thing I have learnt from those scenario's that have helped me not to feel bad by such aggressive responses of people is that, they didn't reject me they only rejected the idea, so no hard feelings. So it doesn't stop me from telling the next guy about bitcoin as I don't know who will be needing it to accept it. You don't need to impose, only tell about it and let them be. The choice is theirs to make anytime.

One mistake that all 3 of you are making is imposing your thoughts on others.
@minecache if you had read to finish in the descending  discussions you would have noticed this part of my comment quoted below so not to have conclude that all 3 are making a mistake of imposition.

However, I concur with the following notions.

One mistake that all 3 of you are making is imposing your thoughts on others. You are a person who likes new things and likes to explore, but that doesn't mean everyone has that mindset. Furthermore, you must know that most people will be very hesitant when hearing about new things, so once you decide to introduce bitcoin to them, you need to be mentally prepared that there is a high possibility that they will refuse instead of listening.

If it were me, I wouldn't listen to my son's advice because I'm the one raising him, and his finances completely depend on me, how can he teach me to be rich? That's like a servant teaching his master how to get rich, isn't it unreasonable? Audience and results are two important factors when we want to introduce bitcoin or give them financial advice.

It was easy to tell people about Bitcoin and that it was what we usually heard from others but doing it in actuality and convincing someone to believe us is somewhat really difficult. However, I understand their response to us because this is also what I did before and I rejected the opportunity until such time I realized it. After I failed to convince my friends, I promised myself not to do it again but rather wait for them and ask about Bitcoin. In this way, I give them freedom to decide on their own, not by forcing them to invest and lose their money.
It is highly likely that it will never come to making a decision on your own. If there was no desire before, then it will not appear.
Did they really not have any information about Bitcoin until now? I don't think so. But for some reason, your friends never decided to buy at least part of Bitcoin. Just forget about it and move on as if nothing happened. You have come to a correct understanding of the situation, and nothing more is required.
