Topic: Can we proudly tell people that we're Bitcoiners? (Read 398 times)

Of course, I no dey feel shy say I know about Bitcoin and I'm proud to say I'm Bitcoiners because no be everybody get the idea of Bitcoin and how e dey helpful to people, and if u dey tell people about Bitcoin, how e dey come into existence and it's benefits to the society, people go start to see u as big man and the kind respect dem go give go dey massive because dey don see u as high person, person wey get sense, u go even get people wey go dey close to u just for them to sabi wetin u sabi and dem go dey call u boss, and the thing go dey motivate u the more to go dey learn more about Bitcoin and na the more person go dey feel very proud to dey tell people about am.

If you are hear and you aren't proud to be here then you don't really know what you are doing. I have invited alot of people to this forum and some has benefited from it while some out of laziness has left the forum. I will be forever proud of this forum as it's has helped me to learn alot about cryptocurrency.

That one go depend on the level of relationship I have with the person. If you are really close to me, I go fit tell you wetin I d do for a living but I no go tell you how much Bitcoin I d earn to avoid attacks or tasking of me giving you money all the time. And whereby we are not close, I go tell you see I d into freelancer and that ends it.

You see this our side hustle wey be the forum, no be everyone go understand am or go fit do am and those wey go fit do am, no get the patience to build their account. However, nothing is wrong if you keep everything to yourself, make people assume wetin d wan assume so long as you no d steal or beg from them

Well I don't owe anyone any explanation and so I think am good and besides there is a saying which goes " people can't really hurt or destroy what they don't know". The world today sef na so so jealousy and wickedness full so me telling people what I do is just another way of given them something to look out for in my life so I prefer bearing the name of them call me on what they don't particularly know about than exposed it to them myself.

You say and I quote sir I usually say there are a lot of ways to earn online fraud is not the only way to earn or make hug amount of money because for he who knows Bitcoin would be glad and know that it is a great investment and it's never to late my mentor always safe buy deep sell high but with great knowledge you will buy high and sell higher.

  I want to tell us that we Bitcoiners will rule and the world will know that it's not fraud that can get you a living alone.

Trying to convince people that you are doing a genuine work or that you are Bitcoiner for me is not necessary and I see it as a waste of time and energy they should believe whatever they think. what people think of you or think you are doing doesn't matter what matter is you doing what is right and staying clear from those things they think you are into ( a clear conscience fears no accusation) and it's not like you owe anyone an explanation. As a matter of fact you are not making money to convince people that you are doing genuine work  but rather you are making money to get your needs and want and take care of some external things that may arise.

I'm proud to be a Bitcoiner but I owe no one an explanation of what I do online, the only online business people know about is yahoo so I don't bother telling anyone about what I do unless you are family. I have noticed that Bitcoiners are different from Yahoo boys tho, sense of reasoning and the dress code are different so I don't think it's hard to convince anyone that you are doing a legit business online, except people that already want to paint you black.

Like i does most times i don't usually disclose my source of income to people when they keep asking me what do i do in city well if you must know there are lot of things to be done in the city if you moved out to there, work like painting, driving or company works. One must not revealed to external body that you are into online business because they have different mentality and orientations about online activities and even if you must tell any it should be someone that knows things about online, or that into online business just as you do before you could spare time to explained to such persons.

Let us just say that some of us has not being doing well with our Bitcoin investments simply because we are grieved that the platform does not bring us quick incomes and we are also likely to have doubt to the investment technology due to lack of knowledges on how we can always have confidence that our assets can be secured since it is a decentralized technology.

Some of us were also slacked to the Bitcoin investing industry due to certain levels of ignorance that we can actually be accumulating and patient would always have us the key to make it big in the future.
We never had that insight of Bitcoin being a hope industrial investment system against the future during our retirement. All we thought about the Bitcoin was if it can not give us a quick income then we are backing off and since we are not sure if our funds are secured as we do not know the authorities in-charge of it then we are also backing off.

It was really a total awkwardness of most persons who had been unable to elevate on their Bitcoin assets but since we got to this Bitcointalk platform, we were able to build our knowledges and clearly understood how the system is really running and also opportuned to learn about the potentials of this great Bitcoin industry and its marketing strategies.

So to some points most of us has been able to build a proefficient and profitable carriers with the help of discovering and being amongst the forum.
A 5 stars kudos to the invent of this great forum which had given us the privileges to have come this far of being financially independent to ourselves even though the national Economy is still staggering but atleast we maintains some self reliance stance with the fact that our endivoirs of Investing in the Bitcoin would always have us that potential privileges to beat the economy inflations.

@ OP while I have learnt to some extent in this forum, it is risky of you telling anyone your source of income and letting them know you are a Bitcoin holder would add no value to your holding instead you would stand in the position of becoming a treasury that some evil minded persons may hunt you to steal your assets.

It is just better you stay mute and you owe no one prove of your doing legit job. Maybe if you must have to talk to them about your income since you are mostly at home While your Bitcoin holdings speaks of your incomes for you, you can just let them know that you are doing some remote jobs which you can work at home but online.

Tha would save you some insecurity terms in the dangerous societies we are today.

Sure with little knowledge I have in Bitcoin and other platform in crypto currency we should be proud to say it that we are Bitcoiners because from the Beginning people admire Bitcoiners Even when I haven't have account I do admire them and always wish to be part of Bitcoin,as you can see today Bitcoin has taken over and can't never stop it's operation due to its famous today,one can be proud to say it that he is into crypto currency or mining because is not yahoo plus so you can be proud while saying it ,even our FG and other law enforcement agency they all do it ,that's to show that we are not in to bad company but good.

Bitcoin investment is a lifetime investment believe me any youth who don't emback on it now will so much regret it tomorrow because we are now in a digital currency age , where things are happening today ,so my dear brother you should be proud to say it all over and over again that you are a Bitcoiner, anywhere and nothing we happened, except as binance is fighting with FG still one can still make a contribution anywhere, crypto is not curruption ,so never be scared at all to open up what pay you,though many mistake it as being fraudulent (yahoo) because many who are into Bitcoin look fresh and always press their phones anytime,but that doesn't make you to be shy to share what you do to people,be proud and tell people you source of income before they tag yahoo or ritualist ,but I don't mined if you tag me yahoo or ritualist,what I know I will keep on doing what I know best .

OP, I can tell someone that am a bitcoiner but I can't tell you exactly what I do, it is important for us to be careful of whom we discuss what we do with, because of the happenings this days,   jealousy and other things that can be accompanied with it, humans mind is somehow, most times you might discuss with someone he or she may not see it as anything at first but later at his own time, he will start battling with his mind, this might lead to him having dangerous thought about you but we need to be very careful because the danger out their is enormous.

I like wetin you talk here, e make a whole lot of sense, no be everybody supposed know wetin dey give you money especially if you see say dem dey ask you without pure intentions e go better say make you no just send dem at all if possible no tell dem d truth about wetin u dey do because some bad pipo go still believe wetin dem choose to believe even if you tell dem the actual truth about wetin u dey do as ur work so na to just but eye for ground know who we go dey tell tinz and who to avoid so dat make we no for go cast ourself for outside na as we know say area no too pure nowadays.

As you know say wetin you dey do legit you no supposed fear because even if mata bos out for d are you get wetin u go use defend yourself say wetin you dey do legit and no  something wey no pure so no need to fear any body.

I no go fit tell stranger say I dey do something wey dey give me money in Bitcoin because of some people don picture about bitcoin in our society say any person wey get ahm must be somebody wey dey very rich. For me I prefer to stay without allowing anybody to know say I get bitcoin because letting people know is dangerous which nobody can tell what will happen.

Even if I dey work for forum and people dey feel say I dey do illegal thing wey dey give me money, I no care about what people think about me so far as my ways dey pure.

Well when you start progressing people will actually ask where you’re get your money from and they will like to know by all means, and when you tell them you’re into bitcoin trade and stuffs like that, they will think you’re a fraudster and what you’re doing is illegal. Well to me some people you don’t need to tell them your source of income it’s better you keep it to yourself then letting people criticize you.

Well I’m actually new here and try to find my way in this forum

It may be believable by we the digitally enlightened few. But for most, it'll be taken with some shade of doubt as making money through the internet is still somewhat new and hardly believable.

No be everybody go fit to understand say you de join discussion for one forum and at di end of di week dem go just pay you just like dat, most people go think say na cover up for yahoo things wey you de into. E no good to tell lies but for dis our forum matter, make you keep di information to your self, unless say you get correct person wey you wan carry enter di forum, na im you fit to discuss am with, odawise no need to de broadcast Yoursef. Bad belle people plenty, dem fit report you say you be yahoo guy, you go come go de explain yourself for police or EFCC, dem even fit to set you up thinking say you get plenty Bitcoin for your wallet, so as dis forum de anonymous na so you suppose code yoursef anonymously for outside di forum.

First of all we can proudly tell people that we're bitcoiners but we should be mindful of people we tell not everyone around us deserves to know the source of our income.Some people are just there to say all sort of rubbish but with the mindset I have if I'm making my money in a legit way, whatever people say doesn't matter.How can I convince a person that I work online? First of all I'll introduce the forum to the person, enlighten him or her on cryptocurrency cause most Nigerians think cyptrocurrency is Yahoo Yahoo,with this introduction it's left for the person to believe or not.

Actually I will never advise anyone to tell people about there Bitcoin because you may not like the outcome considering the kind of society we are now, were almost every online work is seen or perceived to be something that's not genuine so telling people about it is like telling them that you are an online scammer so is just better you keep it within yourself, actually the reason why I'm sounding this way is because I have witnessed a situation were a Bitcoiner decided to share information to people who doesn't really understand much about Bitcoin to see if there is anyway he could help them to guide them through on how they can start investing on Bitcoin but little did he realize that he was making a very big mistake, the same people he was trying to help turn against him and call police on him by tagging the guy as an online scammer, so perhaps sometimes we could feel that helping someone  is good by telling them what we do but sometimes the outcome could be very severe.

There was a day that I asked myself this question. I checked my life and it is similar with the life of the yahoo boys because I do not work in a physical shop and again I earn online. If you search my phone you will see multiple wallets like an aza man. If you also search my phone you will see VPNs just like the yahoo guys have. Even my appearance sometimes make people think I am into yahoo. Once you are a young guy and you are fresh and maybe has a good phone in your hand, you are a yahoo person. That's the standard they have Kept here. That is why if I go to boutique to buy clothes, I will first tell them to give me the normal price that I am not a yahoo person.

My advice is that, if you don't do yahoo but you are only a Bitcoin, don't have any cockroach in your cupboard.

In the online world, I haven't begun making money yet, but if I get a chance to earn through a forum's signature, I'll be cautious about sharing it widely. I won't announce my online earnings to everyone, except maybe my close family, for my safety. If I do start making money here, I'll carefully plan things out. I might even start a small business to divert attention away from myself, so people don't think I have a lot of money just because I'm involved with Bitcoin. It's not wrong to be proud of how we earn, but it's important to be careful about who we share this information with. There are negative influences around us, and sometimes it's better to keep things private to avoid attracting unwanted attention or potential risks.

Yes of course ,we can actually tell family,friends and our loved ones that we are bitcoiner's and they can also be convinced that you are doing a genuine work online depend  on how you enlighten them what you do besides that crypto (bitcoin)  is digital currency known globally. We can absolutely tell someone of its benefits and profits from it, it can also be beneficial to them also.

I remember at first when you tell people you into bitcoin the next thing they think you into fraud but thank God for now that people are getting enlightening about the entire bitcoin. And once they think you are wealthy enough the next thing is for them to start bill you not considering your current condition. Either you have or not. And they have forgotten that you can invest as little as 10 dollars. They don't know how much you have invested and don't care to know the only  thing they know is for you to bring when they ask you because you are a bitcoiner.

Am can also share with my beloved friends and family about it since they have idea about my investment and know the quantity owned but as for outsiders I will better keep it for my self because I know how people can be and also for security reasons it is better to keep it to your self.

Wetin be the need of telling people say you be bitcoiner if e no deh necessary. E no go make any sense because people go still believe wetin them want to believe. Most of the people weh you want to explain give self fit to no understand wetin bitcoin be self. You go just waste your time talking to people weh go still gossip you immediately you leave them presence. If you deh fear say them go call you Yahoo boy na that one them go first call you self. Just concentrate on yourself and wetin you deh do. Do your thing in private. No forget say country hard and if people begin see you as someone who get bitcoin na problem you deh cause for yourself. Be careful.

Op since you know say na legit hustle you they run for the online wey they put food for your table and e come be like say the Naija bad economy no they too affect you, you for chill, anybody wey they think say na scamming work you they do for online make them think. If they no fit to join you, make them watch you Just make the money they go. You fit just let your family know say na legit something they give you money for online, and make them no come they think so much say how manage you they see money every week when the country they like this.

I agree, telling folks how much bitcoin you got can be dicey.  I mean, if they know about it or how it could maybe make you rich, they might try to take advantage.  Some people could see your crypto stash as their own personal ATM and sweet talk you into lending them some and  or worse they might just take it.  Had a buddy who flashed some hard cash around to impress a date.  Next thing he knows, he's getting jumped by her friends looking to score some free money.  So yeah, best to just keep that info to yourself unless you really trust who you're talking to.

Not everyone deserves to know what a Bitcoiners does or if one have Bitcoin as holdings. When people hear Bitcoin, some may just conclude that one is wealthy enough, but not knowing how much quantity and how the BTC is earned is what's the core truth that needs protection from those who don't understand the value Bitcoin has brought to their lives

I can tell close family and friends if need be, but the first I tell, would have to have been very close inorder for me to let them in on such secret, even if they probe till heaven falls.

I won’t even tell them and whatever they want to think about it they should, because I know what I am doing is legit and won’t call for any case even if they call security personnel’s on me. One thing I understand about this life is to try and make your life private and not tell anyone where your source of income originates from. It will depend on my environment to know what to do next when I begin to feel uncomfortable with my stay there because of how people will be perceiving my source of wealth.

I won’t be compelled to tell them I’m a bitcoiner because in our community today, if you tell them you’re into bitcoin, they already assume you’re rich and have a lot of money. I will rather get a physical business even though I won’t stay and go their once in a while to supervise the shop so that they’ll assume I get all my income from the physical shop I opened. You have to stay smart in the street if not, you’ll regret why you let the public know about you.

Op as for me this matter of proud is good because anything that I AM doing which I found courage I am always proud of it. But the area of telling person what your doing not everyone  that seek your source of income mean well for you, before revailling your secret or source of income you must carry out some verification about the person if he or she is willing to work or be a part of the team because some even when you tell the truth because they are not interested will interpret it in another way misleading the society.and painting you black. Another thing is that we have talkative in our society their own is just to talk but can't carry out action of work if your telling people of such your just waisting your time .

you don't owe everybody the responsibility of letting them know what you're doing for a living but as it concerns your immediate family, so they don't conclude that you're into internet fraud, you can tell them you promote a product for a particular firm and you are paid commission for doing so. The only reason you should tell them is because of the way almost everybody assumes that you are involved in yahoo when de see you always with your phone.

But as long as you know that the forum is legit and isn't involved in any illegal activities, don't be too bothered about what people are saying. People will always talk so you just keep doing your thing and don't be moved by their reaction.

I understand you op, most times people get curious to know how come you make money online some even begin to think you are yahoo boy, most especially since you are mostly indoors. But my response has always been, I am an online marketer/ advertiser. It's as simple as that, I won't want anyone to know that I'm dealing with anything close to Bitcoin or crypto. That alone is enough to stop other unnecessary question that might come in if you would have mentioned crypto in your discussion. Not every friend is a well wisher, some are just wolf in sheap clothing.

For me there is no point telling anybody anything because you owe them nothing. Human being are always inquisitive to know everything. Just like me, dey have been asking me series of questions and I pay a deaf ears to them. sometimes if they call me Yahoo boy I will answer because no matter how you try to explain, they will stick to there mentality. What will make people to stay clear from you and too much questions, is when you have used the money you received from here and establish yourself as a medium of letting them know that This is what I do, while the main backup is online. Most shops like POS you see on the street, are owned by crypto enthusiast who are into cryptocurrency trading or into campaign and you'll never know. So my advice is that we should try our best to open an offline physical business that will keep there eyes away from us. Otherwise we stand the chance of always answering questions.

For me, no one knows what exactly I do on this site, if you're very open to tell people that you're a bitcoiner, you've jeopardized the main reason the digital coin was created, which is decentralization and privacy. you can just tell them that you started working for a company online and that's it. people should have limited knowledge of your financial activities if you want to live long in this country. Jealousy and bad belle fit sup for the matter ooo, so just dey your dey and live your life, if you wan refer person to the forum, just do am codedly to be on a safer side.

The thing is no just blow your cover because of some insane questions or suspension wey go dey around you.

People get different ways of interpreting things you fit dey try let person know the kind thing you dey do online but them fit no understand at all so make we just dey play our card small small. For me if person see me as yahoo boy no problem na your eye so any thing you want use am see e concern you as far as i no use my mouth tell you i no go reason am.

I support you advise and if people know that you are making money from internet, and they can't do that probably because of the illiteracy level of them but they will be tama hugging you to dash dem money every day and night. And also avoid accepting people into your house because most of them are there to monitor your house and attack your house. You have given good advice. As for the op question I will say yes but you have to know whom you are proudly tell your means if income.

Well who give a fuck about their intuition they can prove it as a fact and I believe we Bitcoiner aren't exactly living lavish lifestyle that people would start tagging you such names and even if you the spending type am not a critic and am not against you. No matter what you do in this life people will talk, you can never trust humans so just love your the way you please and be free with your conscience flying high not be being afraid everytime of what could happen.

The world has revolved to the extent of not letting people know how far you've progressed or knowing your source of income. You can simply tell them you are a Bitcoiner but not necessary for you telling them about the forum except they have interest to know about Bitcoin. Secretes are needed to achieve success and you have no reason to convince anyone about whatsoever your into.

You don't have any reason to convince anyone about your source of income; no one hold you any explanation unless if your parents are not satisfied with your sources of income.

Money de online, no be everybody they do yahoo; people no wan know that because them de always think say na only Yahoo boys de make money online.

The problem now be say some people no go fit do this work as many people de always look for quick way to get money, so even if you de try introduce people to, e go look like say them go fit build account, but when them see say e no actually de easy, them go give up na why me I no de waste my time explain to anyone, If I tell you, if you believe fine and if you no believe na you know.

You have to be careful who you tell about the money you're making.  Physical attacks are no joke.  It's best not to gossip to people about your weekly earnings and  the same thing goes for Bitcoin.  Some folks might want to know your business so they can try to scam you, or even forcibly take your assets.

I once made the mistake of bragging to an acquaintance about a bonus I received.  Next thing I knew, he was hounding me for a loan that I suspect he had no intention of paying back.  So keep your financial situation to yourself as much as possible.  Only share details with trusted loved ones.  And never disclose specific dollar amounts or account balances.  Its just not worth the risk of becoming a target.

Well, e no too late for you to carry placard dey advertise the forum and bitcoin to pipo for your neighbourhood. You think say na everybody wey smile with you get your best intentions? Abi you never come across news or topics for the forum wia it was reported say armed robbers attack crypto enthusiasts... How you think say e dey take happen? You no need to tell anybody say you dey into cryptocurrency or you get some Bitcoin stach. Dey discrete with your crypto dealings, na for your own good.

I don't know what you mean by the proud you mentioned in your subject but still, why do you want to tell people you own bitcoin and you're into internet stuff, if you want to flaunt your online business or something else there's nothing bad but you see this bitcoin once you mention bitcoin outside and where different kinds of people are gathered you should be ready to secure yourself.
Sometimes with the way people talk about holding bitcoin should be a secret most people will think it's a joke, and some victims can also testify why your bitcoin holding should be a secret. Even with some experience some people will still fall victim to these scammers, if you feel like showing off your holding is the best then no one can stop you but it's best to keep your holding a secret.

There is no need to tell people that you are a Bitcoiner of they didn't come to you first (even if they do) because the eyes of many people are on crypto investors, so you have to be careful the kind of person you tell about your crypto life.
Some might want to know so that they can look for away to scam you, I wish I could find a thread that I saw some months back, on this thread, a Twitter influencer was robbed because his showing of this crypto cash out to people on Twitter, and the robbers toke all his coins, smart TV, jewelries and most of his important things.
So it will be better if you keep your crypto life on a low key than to get your self into troubles, some pipo eyes dey for those way dey deal with crypto currencies, especially now when Bitcoin dey high.

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.

I only tell my close family members about what I do, and dey understand me, if external person ask me about Wetin I dey do, I dey find physical work tell dem say na Wetin I dey do be that, and if people dey talk about online job, I go just dey look them like say I no even know Wetin be online job, we don’t expose what we do to people like that, or the amount we are earning, if you end up telling people the amount you are earning, most people na ur downfall dem dey look for. Now wey kidnapping even dey rampant now, dey fit arrange people make dem come move u, hoping they will be able to get money from you, na y we suppose dey careful be that.

Your family knows you more than anyone else does. If you are asked what kind of work do you do that you suddenly start making money. You should be proud enough to tell them the work you do. It might not be everyone you will tell but your mom and dad are people I think can't hurt you and they know when their son is doing a legitimate something or something illegal. You don't special convincing, if they can't take you for your word then it's left for them.

There is no point in proving to anyone that you are bitcoiner, let them think whatever they like. You are not doing anything illegal so nothing to be worried about. It is ignorance that is making some youth lazy and some go into Yahoo when they can actually earn legal money online.
Some of them have good smartphone but don't know how to make legit money from it. The one's that knows are learning freelancing skills and earning in dollar on a daily basis.

Just be careful of people that you tell that you are making some money on this forum. People that are buying bitcoin or receiving reward in bitcoin need to be careful. Especially of offline attack like physical attack can be possible and by avoiding people about you receiving bitcoin weekly would be better.

Just play your card right. To know Yahoo guy is not difficult to know. I know people that are into online means of earning and there has been no problem.

If it comes to police case, you will be able to defend yourself and you have nothing to be afraid of if your hand is clean.

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).
