Is the term Bitcoiner even a thing?
I don’t see that to be a thing and no, I don’t owe anyone an explanation to how I’ve managed to build myself over the years. I guess if I intend to be open to anyone, I’ll just say am into a couple of businesses, a few online and others offline. Anyway, I’ve got my other streams to making a living so, I don’t get that attention from people but even then, you don’t get to ask me that and I don’t get to say nothing.

Telling some that you have Bitcoin in this Nigeria will either put you at the risk of been kidnapped or been tame as a scammer. The Nigeria society is now a place where you need to be security conscious about everything you do either as Bitcoin person or person who does online things and make money through Bitcoin. There is high rate of kidnapping among friends these days, now imagine the position you will put yourself when you tell people ttat you earn Bitcoin or you have some Bitcoin in your wallet, you might just be sleeping and found yourself in an unknown environment with people requesting for ransome got your release.
Scammers has also make the people that legitimately earn Bitcoin as bad people because of what they do in the cyber space, they scam people of their hard earn money and launder them through Bitcoin and sell to local vendors and now people that earn Bitcoin in a legit ways don't have a good place in the eye of the people, always see Bitcoin as bad thing which very wrong disinformation. I hope one day everyone becomes educated about Bitcoin and change their mindset.

In business you only discuss it with people that are in line of business with you, they will understand you better, than people that have no ideas about your business, telling people that have no ideas about bitcoin that you are a bitcoiner is wrong if they do not ask you to get involve, in this life just work in silent for yourself and family, let no one know about your source of funding, not everyone are happy about your progress keep your mouth shut, especially now way every young guy for we county wey dey do well na yahoo people they call dem. they no know say many legit businesses dey online wey dey pay more than yahoo. once you tell people say na bitcoinner you be na yahoo boy dem go call you. so to avoid unnecessary explanation just do you work secretly.
You made good points, but at times, it's nothing discussing your line of work with another person, after all, no one is the epitome of knowledge, some people may add or subtract with meaning. So far they are wise and constructive enough, that the discussion will flow nicely and be productive. Bitcoin is not the name that any natural person can't contribute a valuable idea, but what I won't tolerate is for someone to start downgrading my source of income. How dare he! 
So far as it's legit, I will always be proud of it. Money is money regardless of whether you get your own hard or easy, and those people who are widely believed to have gotten their money easily are not effortless, only that they are smarter than those who believe hard work must be the way. However, regarding those who are stigmatizing every earning online or tagging people as Yahoo boys simply because you are shining, let them talk but keep shining. Nonetheless, in all you do, do not be a squanderer, continue to diversify your business and see whose future is brightest.
Must you tell people about online involvement?
When someone ask you why can't you tell them that you have other job or business you are running so avoid series of questions coming from people, and besides if you don't open your mouth to tell people that you are a bitcoiner how would people know you are one is better you have other working because the mentality of people outside this forum doesn't reason what you are reasoning because when you tell them you are a bitcoiner then you are giving them the chance to call you all sorts of names.
Just limit yourself from friends who doesn't do same business as you otherwise you will be called a Yahoo boy because they don't know what you are doing for real.

When you tell people you're into bitcoin, they'll have no choice but to want to chat to you. Because of the way bitcoin works, people understand that it is not easy and that people make money. One of the reasons people want to do bitcoin is because the thing won't pass because of money, and if you look am true say money, they bitcoin, but if you look am, they want to make money but don't want to read. And this is one of the most important things you need to do when you want to do crypto: prepare your mind to learn. In reality, I took it upon myself to raise awareness for bitcoin, the fact that people had an incorrect perception of it. And when I did section in crypto I never regretted i was happy I did something like that because even our parents had a better understanding about bitcoin, a lot of misconception about bitcoin is to much and I was surprised that they contributed well to the radio station.
It depend d people living around ur area, before u can be bold to tell them ur occupation because some people are like agent of darkness looking for who to destroy, and d moment dey discover dat u are bitcoiners in d area, dey can use police or bad guys to set u up to collect money or bitcoins from u because dey no dat bitcoiners use to have money, I don't tell anybody dat am a bitcoiners in my area because I don't trust those people around ur area because bad news use to happen every week or monthly basis, u can teach people u trust about bitcoin but don't expose ur secret to them which is my advice to u bro.

Most times it's just better you maintain some privacy because it hard to trust people these days besides most people here in Nigeria are brainwashed that all people that are into cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin are fraudsters, they know little of the world of bitcoin so they can say shit about it and you announcing yourself as a Bitcoiner can make the situation worse.. they aren't gonna believe you but try changing your mode of dressing tooSo I think the answer is yes and no... Yes to deserving people in your life and that is if need be (some parents, siblings and relatives would want to clear all doubts) .
And bloody no to anyone, mostly those who loves to see you broke, talkers tempting you just to hear what they'll say about you etc
Some of us here were not actually doing very well before we joined this forum and people know that we don't have a job and a source of income but when we were introduced to this forum, we took time to build our accounts and were fortunate to join signature campaigns and we started earning income from it and things begins change differently in our lives as we were able to buy clothes, food, shelter and even extend hands to some of our loved ones and people begin to wonder what kind of job you're doing that you have suddenly changed to the extent of even rendering assistance to other people.
So my question is this, can we proudly tell people that we're Bitcoiners? And even if we do how can they be convinced that we're doing genuine work online since the society sees most people earning from online as fraudsters (Yahoo boys).

Actually you can only call yourself a bitcoiner if you have been profiting from bitcoin investment because you can't just bare the name bitcoiner when you don't even profit from bitcoin investment, you know one thing about me I don't disclose my source of income to people. you know how the society is disclosing your source of income to people is very risky, you don't know who is who probably you can disclose your source of income to people maybe within a couple of months you find out that things aren't working out for you unlike as it use to be before.
mean while when you didn't tell anyone about your source of income things was working absolutely well for you, but ever since you disclose it to people that's how you begin to experience down fall. this is why we need to be extremely careful on how we tell people about our source of income if I'm doing absolutely well that's for me, i don't owe anyone any explanation they can say whatever thing they wish to say for all I care.

Saying out your main source of income is dangerous, most especially in Nigeria, but still, I see no reason why you can’t tell people that you are a bit-coiner because nothing is wrong with that. Normally, many people are showing up on social media and claiming they are bitcoin traders, but they are not, which with time they will be exposed to. But if you know you are doing legit work, what will make you think that you can’t speak out?
Your actions determine who you are. As far as I am concerned, no one can come up to me and say I am lying when I tell him I am a bitcoiner because I see no signs that will indicate getting my money in the wrong way, so I have no fear of anyone.

As far as Bitcoin is not a bad thing to practice, Nigeria is a country with little security insurance. The security and justice system of Nigeria is not really appealing and that's why you will be faced with situations where young people are wrongly bullied and molested over lack of proper system checks and balances. In Nigeria, the digital currencies and financial technology industry is still a new platform to a lot of people, not because there were no Nigerians who explored those technologies early enough but because many Nigerians are skeptical about the whole internet banking system as an entirety. It is still in Nigeria you will find professors who don't trust the mobile banking platforms neither do they appreciate the financial technology evolving around the world. So, when you, as an individual, engage in those pure and clean technologies, they refer to you as a potential fraudster, especially if you are a young person.So many things just need to change for this out country and e no dey alright. Before law enforcement dey focus on fraudsters, now them don extend am to include anyone indulging in crypto. I know this — which is why I'm not quick to reveal my involvement with crypto because it gets even difficult to explain to people who aren't interested to evolve and try out new digital technologies. Over here, it's even more dangerous to be very vocal about crypto to people around you because that single action may put you in danger too.
After seeing people's experiencs and having my own fair share of experiences, I now understand why Magicians do not share their tricks.
As much as I'd like to do it, I won't. I would advice you not to do it too especially in Nigeria. I just heard from a friend today who just got onboarded to crypto that he was beaten up by law enforcement because they found those telegram bot programs on his phone that he actively participate in. Aside from law enforcement, it's really hard to convince people and an utter waste of time especially since our people get archaic kind of mentality around this sort of things. If anything, them go even use am plan against you. Except you're really sure of the people you're telling, you shouldn't.

Definitely,we can always tell people about what we are doing because we aren't stealing anybody's money,we are doing the right thing,and the work we are doing isn't for touts,it is for educated people,people who are learned because it isn't easy cracking your brain to make a reasonable and sensible post. I am very happy that I got recognized with this group,and with this group I have the optimism that I will grow and become some important figure in the society.
It gives me happiness everyday that I am part of the community,and I will always remain motivated by the things I see here everyday,and always become proud of it.
If it were before, I would have been proud to tell people I'm a Bitcoiner but lately alot have changed about how I view telling people about my activities in Bitcoin. I have realized the advantages of remaining discrete about my Bitcoin holding and activities far outweigh the disadvantages. This is partly due to the fact that we live in a country where Bitcoin is perceived as a threat to our national currency, the reason that have been unjustifiable crackdown on Bitcoin by our government. In order not to expose oneself to risk in any form, it is better to remain hidden and protected. You might tell a friend who will tell his friend that does not like you or jealous of you, all he need to do is to report you to the authorities and you might be in trouble already in the hands of the government and the EFCC. So remaining secret is more reasonable now as I can only direct people to this forum and never to disclosed my portfolio to them. It gives me happiness everyday that I am part of the community,and I will always remain motivated by the things I see here everyday,and always become proud of it.
