One of the influencer in my country has started the business of selling the shirts with bitcoin logo on it. This will not only help him get some business but at the same time, it is a step towards the crypto awareness.

Keep in mind that we live in a country where we are not allowed to buy and sell through bitcoin. Therefore he is selling the shirts in the fiat currency however all the shirts have Bitcoin logo over it. This is the maximum he can do to promote bitcoin. I hope when some day bitcoin may become a legal tender here also, then he can do the transactions in Bitcoin.

While I love wearing bitcoin logo in tshirt and all the stuffs that has this logos , but i also knew how risky this will be as
we can be named as bitcoin supporter and investors in which will attract criminals to make us target , we also understand that there are bad elements that is only waiting for victims ,
yes we can hide our keys in more safety places , but the chance of being force to reveal our seeds is there once they threaten our life.
actually I have A bitcoin shirt but only wearing this in a friendly meetings to lure them and try making them investors.
but I love the concept that your friend is imposing and I hope that this will be a way of making people in your community aware about bitcoin and consider investing in time.
and knowing that you are not allow in your country to purchase from bitcoin , this will be a hard task for every supporters making them aware of the market.

I have a friend who also did the samething, actually it feels nice and somehow proud to wear a t-shirt with a cryptocurrency logo since other could recognize it, and there are times that some stranger or workmates would actually open up a topic and talk to you about crypto when they see the t-shirt.

Yes! Of course, because that will gonna save you time and promote only to the people that are interested you don't need to talk first either because you only answer their questions when they started to ask you something about bitcoins. You will also find those people who asked you good listeners because they are curious and want to know things from the pros. Most people who approached you will have some basic questions so before wearing those shirts, you better have an idea of what you are talking about also don't forget to warn them against scammers and frauds and also don't forget to enlighten them about bitcoins nothing to do with any Ponzi Scheme or scams rather it is also a victim. scammers used it as a prop for their scam activities.

The idea of selling t-shirts with a Bitcoin logo is great. However, you mentioned that you're in a country where buying and selling through Bitcoin is not allowed. So is it safe to publicly promote Bitcoin where people can see you wearing it? Although it's being sold using fiat, the idea that you're promoting something that's not accepted in your country, I'm not sure if it's safe. Btw, up to what extent does that rule apply in your country? Is it prohibited or illegal? Cause if it's not illegal but still isn't widely known in your country, Bitcoin promotion thru t-shirts are a good business idea.
I used to have a shirt with a huge Bitcoin logo in front that I used to wear a lot. When I wear it, I feel like I'm promoting Bitcoin to people who'll see my shirt, and it kinda feels great when you would notice that some people will look at your shirt.

Wow, great to hear that influencers in your country are taking a creative approach to spreading awareness about Bitcoin! Selling T-shirts with the Bitcoin logo is a fantastic idea to promote cryptocurrencies and make them more accessible to people who may not know much about them.

Even if there are Bitcoin buying and selling constraints in your country, these influencers are still looking for ways to support the crypto movement. I'm sure as Bitcoin becomes more widely accepted and legal tender in your country, the demand for these T-shirts will continue to increase.

Keep spreading crypto awareness, one t-shirt at a time!

This is a business and also a very good idea because indirectly those who wear clothes with the bitcoin logo can introduce bitcoin to people who still don't know bitcoin when wearing it. And with this, people who are still not familiar with it will be lured by nice t-shirts with the bitcoin logo, because if they are interested in those t-shirts with the bitcoin logo, they will ask what is bitcoin. Or they can look for it themselves by looking for it on the internet if curious.
although bitcoin is now popular but I'm sure there are still many people who don't know about it at all, and introducing various ways to show the bitcoin logo is a good move.
and in my opinion the t-shirt with the bitcoin logo that you are displaying is very good and also matches the color of the shirt and the color of the writing or the bitcoin logo, very interesting.

Does such product promotion really works ? I think t-shirt promos arent up-to-date anymore. At least simple sign Bitcoin does not do much alone. What about people who wear FBI caps. That does not mean they are FBI agents, and you can ask them about their work. Same as wearing a football t-shirt with name Ronaldo does not mean a person is somehow familiar with him. Does not make people buy his CR7 brand goods or instantly become a fan of Al Nassr FC.

I have to say it ain’t really that effective strategy, but it’s a lot better than those who do nothing for bitcoin promotion. If this influencer will continue to promote his product in the social media, I guess in the long run he will be able to attract new investors for bitcoin especially if he also extend his help to those who really show their interest to learn about bitcoin. Not only he will make profits, but he can also help boost the interest of bitcoin enthusiasts to learn and promote bitcoin as well.

I actually like that kind of business too and that is regardless of the way a person promotes crypto through the product he sells it. Because I also printed the BTC logo on four of the T-shirts that I still wear today, but not many people have asked about the writing Bitcoin and the logo on my clothes. And even some people already think of it as a normal thing even though they might already know about Bitcoin.

I also hope that one day Bitcoin can be better and more useful than fiat money so that Bitcoin's position can surpass fiat in society. But until now it still hasn't happened in my place, and one more thing that I also like the way of promoting Bitcoin through t-shirts like that. Because when someone wears the shirt, surely the people around them will also see the logo, although not all of them will ask what it is.

I do not know about you, but I would rather not to let people know I have Bitcoin. It is about how I personally perceive security and liberty here in my country.

One of the reasons I got into this world of decentralized assets and Bitcoin was because I wanted to find a way to keep a little bit of money out the reach of bad people. Unfortunately, here we don't only have crooks in the streets but also in the banks and the government, who do not care to mess with our savings and drive us into starvation in the name of an ideology.

If any of you guys feel safe enough in your country to wear a Bitcoin T-shirt, then do, and feel lucky of your community and country because you are truly blessed.

Cheers.

Those T-shirts are overpriced. Slapping Bitcoin logos on a T-shirt doesn't increase the value. And those things that are the best, doesn't need advertisement. The name itself becomes a brand and people will recognize it without creating such awareness. Also, how many T-Shirts have you bought and came home to research on what is written on it? Does the T-shirt encourage others who have no idea about bitcoin to learn about it? People mindlessly buys clothes by colors and design.
Only those who knows about Bitcoin will be excited to buy something like this. Bitcoin is a decentralized asset. It gives you freedom and the ability to keep your privacy safe. Why let people know that you own Bitcoin by wearing a T-shirt? It compromises your privacy and security. I don't know how is this going to help to spread awareness, and not to mentioned that Bitcoin is not officially accepted in your country.

If he wanted to promote Bitcoin more effectively he can just give the t-shirt away. I think the influencer is just taking advantage of the crypto industry in proliferating his own business. I bet if there is another hot trend, he will put it on his T-shirt so that he can profit from that trend. I think the influencer motive is profit first then the awareness thing is just the after-effect of the merchandise.

It is nice idea seeing people taking their time to promote Bitcoin, but I can't really say that the person selling the T-shirt with the Bitcoin logo on it is doing it with that Bitcoin best interests in mind. After all, a logo alone won't help people understand Bitcoin existence because many people view images on clothing and other objects as common thing.Therefore, it is difficult for people to understand information from merely photographs unless they have prior knowledge of the topic, yet some people can still comprehend and request additional information about Bitcoin if they noticed the logo.

No, I don't believe that the seller has Bitcoin's best interest in mind, it is business and obviously the best interest is profit.

Indeed, it’s a great initiative for an influencer to promote bitcoin awareness to the public knowing that bitcoin is not well acknowledged in your country. However, that will also put his life into danger knowing the public will know eventually that he’s into bitcoin and might have probably huge amount of bitcoin hodlings in his own account. I just hope that he should be more careful and be more responsible on managing his investment since people are now eyeing on him because of his bitcoin wealth.

In the realm of business, practicality takes precedence. Regardless of the legality of Bitcoin in a particular country, it should not hinder the utilization of its logo on T-shirts. Just like firearms are not legal for everyone, there are still T-shirts featuring gun logos or images readily available. Incorporating the Bitcoin logo on merchandise can contribute to greater outreach and help in spreading awareness about Bitcoin. This exposure can attract the attention of new individuals who may become curious about the logo and subsequently develop an interest in Bitcoin. Ultimately, it creates a mutually beneficial situation for all parties involved.

If that is the case, then I would suggest that using this approach of T-shirt sales to raise awareness is a great idea, but it has to be redesigned so it can add a few little words in such away people can quickly notice the existence and found way to do their own research.Although the existence of Bitcoin is nothing new, raising awareness of it can only help it receive greater attention.

You are kind of right, influencers are always being paid just to run advertisement for them, but am sure nobody will pay any influencer to advertise bitcoin. The only thing I think the influencer is trying to do is to make money, after producing t-shirts that bitcoin is printed on it, then he will sell it and make his money, so am sure the influencer cares about the money he will make after producing the t-shirt, so that’s why he is marketing the t-shirt. But I believe he should be careful since bitcoin is illegal in the country, so that he won’t be landed in trouble.

I don't think a T-shirt will help to provide crypto awareness. Yeah, it's great to make business and all, but it's not more than that.

Although not consciously registering, from a psychological perspective, when the Bitcoin logo is ubiquitous and attached to someone's T-shirt, many eyes will retain it as a memory. And if this is repeated regularly, it will make people curious about the existence of Bitcoin without our taking persuasive action. This soft-selling technique doesn't force new users, but rather entices their curiosity. Trust me! It really happens.

On the other hand, people who are already familiar with Bitcoin and see someone wearing a Bitcoin logo shirt, I'm sure there is a sense of pride that there is someone of the same frequency in their environment. I don't think it will be difficult to start a small conversation in public. Many positive impacts can be gained from producing Bitcoin logo apparel and selling it to the general public.

This is a good idea because in some countries that do not allow bitcoin, selling T-shirts with the Bitcoin logo for fiat currency will not directly violate any regulations. This is just a normal exchange and trade of goods, so there is nothing to worry about. The purpose is both to make a profit and to advertise and raise awareness among people who know about cryptocurrencies. Get people to recognize crypto as a future trend leader. This is a positive thing and needs to be pushed further by everyone.

This is only about business and indeed even though it can still be done and is quite good but actually this kind of thing is too commonplace in my opinion.
But even so the good thing maybe in this case he wants to take advantage of followers to expand the business he does and wants to admit more that he is in bitcoin but again something like this in my opinion is not too impactful because regardless of anything this will only benefit him privately with businesses conducted under the pretense of self-declared bitcoin.

I appreciate things like this but on the other hand I'm also a little less inclined to say this as a form of introduction to bitcoin with just a logo because basically things like that are commonplace when talking about the Internet today.

If we really want Bitcoin awareness in a positive way, I think the Government has the only power to that in the majority of places.

Relying solely on the logo sometimes goes nowhere, it takes some appropriate emphasis to really grab attention especially in offensive environments, although you should only allow a small space for the logo itself. In my environment, humorous writing attracts more young people.

I would just be careful with some sayings on the T-shirts, like "hold Bitcoin, retire early" or "mine your own Bitcoin", because this can be spotted as misleading propaganda. We have to be careful to not give false expectations to other people, as we can't guarantee they are going to retire early if they invest in BTC, since the cryptocurrency is highly volatile on both directions. Moreover, most adopters aren't going to mine their own BTCs, because it's an expensive activity which demands high investment and appropriate infrastructure.

Anyway, it's great to see Bitcoin is being promoted even inside countries where it's still frowned up by authorities.

Not just t-shirts, Bitcoin logos can now be seen on almost all products. It's true that the t- shirt logo inspires people about Bitcoin. But not all products with logos are correct. Now if the Bitcoin logo is affixed to illegal products. Bitcoin can never have that responsibility. If illegal goods are purchased with legal currency, the buyer is responsible for that, not the currency. Bitcoin has gained quite a reputation as a legitimate international money exchange. It is not uncommon for illegal products to use the Bitcoin logo to destroy reputation

Having a huge logo of BTC on a t-shirt would not necessarily create awareness about BTC when the people are not properly educates about what the logo is about.
While his initiative is quite laudible, it is imperative that those his intending customers are educated about BTC so they can make informed decisions about BTC.

Bitcoin will succeed and it is little efforts this here and there that will help to propagate the message to the naysayser, the undecided and others. It will be super easy for the influencer to reach a lot of people of the followers. In addition to shirts with bitcoin logo on it, the individual could add other merch as well - like shoes, caps, wristwatches, pants, etc to reach a wide range of customers who may not be interested in the shirts. If you are not allowed to buy and sell through bitcoin, I presume you just buy and hold or you use the bitcoin for international payments. The logo is good but the shirts should go with a brief note about bitcoin.

Influencers are usually paid by shitcoin owners to promote their token or coin, but if you are promoting BTC you aren't going to get paid by anyone, BTC is decentralized and none of its developers is going to hire you to promote BTC, its use cases is all the promotion that BTC needs. Contributing to the BTC network is voluntary, even the thousands of nodes all around the world who run the BTC client do so for free and without any payment, that it why the network is great.

I guess buying and selling t-shirts with bitcoin logos in your country is fine because people can still use fiat currency to buy them.
It also won't violate any regulations in your country because it's just a t-shirt with the bitcoin logo, just like any other t-shirt.
And it will be a good promotion for bitcoin so that it can be recognized by many people in your country, especially if your friend is an influencer.
An influencer will surely promote his goods and by giving a good explanation, will attract many people to buy his t-shirts.

As long as Bitcoin is fully legal in his country, then this is a good business to have because people there must have known Bitcoin or is a solid fan of it. Like me, I am also hunting for Bitcoin merchandise in my local but it's unfortunate that there are no stores nearby that offer it.

I guess that is because I am on a place which are far away from the big city and maybe there is only less people here who know about Bitcoin. Influencers are usually being paid to promote a product so I don't think his friends voluntarily be doing it but the OP can always pay them in order to promote his business. Doing this also benefits Bitcoin as it makes people curious about the logo or the name Bitcoin.

Kudos to him for taking steps in promoting Bitcoin despite the severe limitations of Bitcoin in your country. Maybe, add information packets in every purchase or link this forum to his shop for more awareness of Bitcoin to his customers. Though, he has to be very careful as to not be targeted, harassed, or worse for doing something like this. Hoping for continued success with your friend.

I think that's a good thing. And for the record, as far as I know there is no prohibition for employers to make t-shirts with various logos and that doesn't make someone commit a crime with that logo. Except for logos related to rebellion or terrorism. That's funny right? Grin

At my place a lot of people wear t-shirts with the logos of FBI, SWAT, Metal, Free Speech, and also logos of cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, BNB and SOL (which I have found) and have no problem with that. Note that as long as there are no words that invite people to do something that is prohibited by the state, such as wearing BTC clothes, then add the words "Let's Buy BTC and don't listen to what the Government has said" Wink

That's a good one if the main idea is to raise awareness to the people that are going to see that t-shirt. If that's an affordable price to most then that will be a successful business and aim.
But then, there have been news and reports about $5 wrench attacks and this can be one of the ways for these attackers to determine if someone holds and owns a bitcoin.
That will be easy for them to know their targets. Yes, it's possible that it can happen but I'm not telling it that it shall bring the whole negativity to anyone who's going to wear it but, it's just about the reality that has happened to the others.

True. I think this is very possible for those scammers to easily trace bitcoin hodlers since wearing bitcoin T-shirts only means that you are a believer and a long time investor in bitcoin, and that you be could owning already a lot of bitcoin profits. Though this idea is very good for public awareness, but it will also trigger the safety of those people who are actually making profits from bitcoin. That’s why most bitcoin earners are just hiding their identities so they can avoid crypto scammers.

Yes.
So, it's like having a helpful way of promoting bitcoin to the public but at the same time, you'll be thinking about safety concerns upon wearing it. You choose what matters to you. We can contribute in bitcoin's growth in some other ways if you're concerned with your safety.
But if you're for it as in fashion, you can always wear it anytime you want and just reason out that it's just given to you. I have seen someone wear something like this in the public but no offense, that person was a beggar and that t-shirt was just likely given to him.

Its fantastic to see that the influencer is using a fresh strategy to promote Bitcoin and raise cryptocurrency awareness in your nation. The influencer idea to sell Bitcoin logo shirts in fiat money is a step towards bridging the gap between conventional banking and the crypto world notwithstanding the limitations on purchasing and selling through Bitcoin. Its admirable that the influencer is not just concentrating on his business but also helping the greater crypto community to expand. Hopefully as your nation develops more people will be curious about learning more about Bitcoin and the influencer initiatives will serve as a catalyst in making that happen.

It's him modeling the shirts on his website. That's a bit risky seeing their government doesn't allow BTC. Although he may own some BTC, but because he promotes BTC shirts, authorities may not believe it.

This kind of shirt might just be common in the coming years as well. We may be seeing posers one day wearing these but when asked about it, they may not know what BTC is.

Therefore he is selling the shirts in the fiat currency however all the shirts have Bitcoin logo over it. This is the maximum he can do to promote bitcoin. I hope when some day bitcoin may become a legal tender here also, then he can do the transactions in Bitcoin.

Small steps often add up to big things. The reason for saying this is because I saw a post in this forum a long time ago where a OP claimed that he took his wife to a hospital to give birth but that night there was probably a storm and the ATM booth was far away from him and he couldn't figure out what to do and how to manage the money. He was shocked because his wife had just had a caesarean. But even though he spoke to the doctor at that time, the doctor did not want him to undergo the operation without payment. But when the man saw a t-shirt with a bitcoin logo from the doctor, he talked to the doctor about bitcoin payment. Later the authorities accept payment in bitcoins and the doctor finally agreed to the operation. There are no words to express how much of a role that t-shirt played at that moment. People who love Bitcoin will try to extend it's area. This move by the influencer will definitely work for awareness in Bitcoin.

I am ambivalent about such bitcoin advertising. On the one hand, it seems to be a good initiative that can help people learn about btc. But on the other hand, how many people pay attention to what is written on the T-shirts of others? Do you often look at the logo on other people's T-shirts, read what is written there and try to understand what it all means? It seems to me that no. If you don't know about the existence of bitcoin and the basics, then a skewed letter "B" on an orange background will not mean much to others. A picture and a picture that means nothing to an uninformed person. Or do you think that after seeing the logo, people will immediately run to buy BTC? It's also very doubtful. So it turns out that this initiative is just an opportunity for this businessman to make money on bitcoin fans. And yet, these T-shirts are in their own way, like one big red target for a 5$ wrench attack.

It's quite nice to sell this kind of t-shirt I honestly like a Bitcoin shirt, when I see someone wearing a Bitcoin shirt it always excites me in a way. Maybe because there wasn't really a lot of this t-shirt or we dont see a lot of it.

The promotion of Bitcoin on a shirt I think is a great idea and we need more of this for promotion and exposure of Bitcoin to a lot of people,I would recommend your store to some of my friends.

I love most of your designs, more bitcoin shirts, please! But there are some issues with privacy/security if you buy this shirt.

This is a solid business idea only if he knows how to grow it. It also solves his motive of spreading Bitcoin awareness. You shouldn't have written "Crypto Awareness" though.

Am having a question to ask, you said bitcoin is not allowed in your country, don’t you think the government might end up arresting the influencer, or arresting anyone wear the bitcoin t-shirt? I believe it’s a nice way to make bitcoin awareness but don’t you think it might end up putting some people into problem. Government might start arresting people wearing the clothes, the producers for marketing a currency that has been banned in the country.

I think it’s better you look for a better way to promote bitcoin, so that government won’t know bitcoin is been promoted. Am sure time will come when bitcoin will be legal in the country and it can be promoted anyhow everybody want. But now that bitcoin is illegal, then everything should be done silently, some people might buy the t-shirt and be landed in problem.

If bitcoin or crypto is not legally traded in your country's jurisdiction, then one probably shouldn't push for more promotion of it even if it is a promising business. I think sooner or later the government will probably realize that more and more people are getting involved in the trade, so since it's illegal the problem will probably be bigger.

After all, you and other users don't need to wear t-shirts with the bitcoin logo to go anywhere because in my opinion it will only threaten your safety both physically and legally. Bad people who know about the value of bitcoin might target you when they have the chance, so be wise about your financial privacy in crypto including not wearing bitcoin logo t-shirts in public.

The first thing you should hope for, is that the government will start allowing bitcoin and crypto to be traded legally in your country instead of regarding their adoption as legal tender. Even if the idea of adoption eventually grows, it's best to hope it's legal to trade for now.

That is fun. They should add bitcoin cartoons on it with slogans calling for the crypto investors. These type of t-shirts are eye catchy so in the long run they will be bought by many people and usually passerby always read out the slogans when they see such colorful and cartoonish t-shirts. More than that, they should start making these for the teens and children group too. It would be far more famous amongst them and they are the best marketers since they are always roaming around with light speed. Grin

One more concept to add is QR codes. These QR codes could be linked to popular bitcoin related websites and more importantly bitcointalk forum for that matter. Any person visiting bitcointalk will ultimately become bitcoin lover if they register and have look around.

That person is definitely making bank, he/she knows the trend and makes a merchandise out of it, I think that this is more than just promotion but more on the business side but hey, who am I to judge, it still has the logo so in a way it still promotes bitcoin. I hope that you can see the legalization of bitcoin in your country, seems kind of a backward thinking for the government to outlaw bitcoin transactions when they can profit from it through taxation.

This is the same situation of my country, I see too many people on the marketplace selling T-shirts, hats, bag,s and custom cards with the bitcoin logos even is bitcoin is not legal as a payment.

That very scary situation.

Can you share some of the stores that are selling bitcoin labeled shirts, hats etc ? It will be great if these store ship these things abroad outside Indonesia.

Also, i would like to know from OP also, whether the shipping of those shirts is limited in his local country or if they ship outside the country too.

When someone want to become an influencer, he already lost and trade his privacy in order to make money. Since he already lost his privacy, he think there's nothing to lose anymore because he will do anything to make him popular.

This will depends on the buyer, if the buyer don't want to become popular and lost it's privacy, don't buy any product related to Bitcoin.

I guess buying and selling t-shirts with bitcoin logos in your country is fine because people can still use fiat currency to buy them.
It also won't violate any regulations in your country because it's just a t-shirt with the bitcoin logo, just like any other t-shirt.
And it will be a good promotion for bitcoin so that it can be recognized by many people in your country, especially if your friend is an influencer.
An influencer will surely promote his goods and by giving a good explanation, will attract many people to buy his t-shirts.

this is indeed a good idea and I also understand your goals and intentions, but in my opinion it would be even better if you made a permit to the government that you would make t-shirts with the bitcoin logo if allowed, keep working on making t-shirts with logos like that.
if it is not permitted by the government, in my opinion, it is better for you to obey what the government in your country says.

maybe with the logo, it must be ascertained whether someone has already applied for a patent. if someone has made it, it is certain that not just anyone can use the logo and must have a permit. but if not then there is no obligation to do the permit, so it can be made to be sold as commercial goods.

but if the problem is like what the colleague said above, that there is a ban from the government, then you really shouldn't take actions that are against the law.

but if the prohibition is transactions against bitcoins, it is also confirmed whether there is a prohibition on logos being made on t-shirts, because there are two different sides, there is not necessarily a ban.
but once again if there is a prohibition, you should still be careful with the rules that have been made and are not meant to be violated.

Perhaps he could expand his portfolio of t-shirt designs by adding all the altcoin logos. Grin

I usually like t-shirts with minimalistic designs and I would never buy a t-shirt, that has a giant logo on the front(it doesn't matter if it's the Bitcoin logo or some other logo). That's just me. Maybe other people will prefer more flamboyant and colorful designs.
I don't think that your friend is promoting Bitcoin by selling such t-shirts. He is just selling t-shirts, nothing else(and he doesn't have to pay for the t-shirt designs, which is clever). Many people have seen the Bitcoin logo, but they still don't know what Bitcoin actually is and how does it work. Many people might think that Bitcoin is a company or a fashion brand. Grin

The OP mentioned that the seller is an influencer, I'm more sure if the shirt is promoted through a special place.

By bringing the logo over the real thing visually, the hope is limited to raising awareness, not knowledge. Making people aware doesn't necessarily have to teach them either, people's level of curiosity can vary every time they see something new. Even if the average person who sees it is the type of person who doesn't care, it doesn't mean that a few of them won't find out harder.

However, I'm wary about the $5 wrench attacks appear to be on the rise in the crypto community.

It is good, these kind of stores where you can get items that carry Bitcoin logos have always been, this just increases accessibility to this items the more. Asides T-shirts, he can also look to include other items like mugs, hats, pens, etcetera. So that people who have no interest in buying T-shirts but like to have an item with Bitcoin logo will have other options to choose from. That way he can increase his sales, and also help increase the awareness he is trying to raise to all corners.

This is truly a nice one coming from someone who truly believes in Bitcoin but is limited by the law to actually practice it, but has used the little means that he has to promote it within his locality by printing a customized T-shirt with different Bitcoin logos. Which is one of the massive means of promotion.

I can say that this is good, but again, does he explain to his customers what Bitcoin is before selling it to them? Because there is no link like bitcoin.org on the cloth. Why am I asking? Because I know there are people who have zero knowledge about Bitcoin, if such people buy this kind of cloth, they could just be wearing it without knowing what it is, or someone who sees it might not equally know what it is. For example, there are some signs or stickers one will see on clothes, and you will just overlook them and conclude that they're just a design.

Yes, your question is on point. The idea of also teaching and educating the customers about what they are actually buying and not just the design is good. But on the other hand, we should also look at the fact that there might actually not be a need for that, because the country might also be against it since they have a legal ban on the currency within their jurisdiction. Seeing someone orally promote and educate people about something that's actually not supposed to be traded in the country might attract the authorities. On the other hand, people who buy clothes now don't just buy them because of the mere design; most people buy them because they actually understand what the design might actually mean.

True. I think this is very possible for those scammers to easily trace bitcoin hodlers since wearing bitcoin T-shirts only means that you are a believer and a long time investor in bitcoin, and that you be could owning already a lot of bitcoin profits. Though this idea is very good for public awareness, but it will also trigger the safety of those people who are actually making profits from bitcoin. That’s why most bitcoin earners are just hiding their identities so they can avoid crypto scammers.

This is a good step and the best way to promote bitcoin adoption and acceptance across the globe. But there's this question I want to asked, since bitcoin trading (buying/selling) isn't allowed in your country don't you think this is contrarily going against your country law?
What if they found out that he is indirectly promoting bitcoin what would government do to him or her?
Actually I love the whole concept of helping for wide spread of bitcoin so I think he should only sells to the country that accepts the buying and trading of bitcoin in other to remain a law abiding citizen.

Then what if a fellow here wants to order for the T-shirts how would they be able to make payment because it would required them to pay through your friend's local currency which I think it may not be pretty nice to them over here IMO. Although I don't think if others have this in mind to ask here.

Such initiatives are very important in promoting Bitcoin in areas where people aren't well aware of the technology. He's truly a Bitcoin lover and his love for crypto-currency can be seen in those t-shits.

I really appreciate the efforts of the guy as such steps are important in promoting awareness about Bitcoin in a community. Even if Bitcoin is banned in the country but still he's selling the shirts with Bitcoin logo and designs on them. The day when Bitcoin becomes a legal tender in the country, people will admire the efforts of this person.

Bitcoin should be promoted by everyone in those areas where people aren't aware about it. The innovation can bring so many opportunities to the people of those areas. Many of those people can be financially stable if they adopt Bitcoin. It's truly a valuable coin and anyone who promotes it is also very valuable. Thumbs up for the guy!

He has a unique way of promoting bitcoin for public awareness, and besides he’s also earning profits as well, so it’s a 2 in 1 business. This will certainly pave its way for more people to get attracted and interested with bitcoin, and it’s now the people’s initiative on how to lengthen their understanding with bitcoin through doing their own diligence in researching. However, while some crypto advocates will appreciate this, but I’m also sure that this will trigger those anti-bitcoin banks and governments, especially if you are living in a country where the government is banning the existence of bitcoin.

So far here in our country on which its still that in neutral phase when it comes to Bitcoin or overall crypto space but just like on what you had elaborated on here on which there are
people or businesses who do really attached up these logos into their business to create or show some awareness which is really that good in overall adoption and recognition.

One of examples (online stores)

But if we do speak about international list then it would be good on reading this one out.
https://icoholder.com/blog/places-accept-bitcoin/

Recognition doesnt stop and it would really be keeping on progress on which we know that not all places or countries does have that similar approach specially if
government does really make out such opposing step, then as a business owner it is really hard to make out some integrations.

This is a great idea which comes from him. Every bitcoin enthusiast and lover wishes to find a way to spread bitcoin knowledge in their community, but some are unable to do so due to the severe restrictions on the use of bitcoin in such areas. If what he's done won't get him in trouble, he should keep going since I'm convinced he'll generate more sales with this design because it'll be unique in that area.

What he has done has also helped to raise awareness of bitcoin in some way. People will be curious about what the inscription on the new clothes implies when they see them. As a result, the public is aware of it, and his goal of sharing bitcoin awareness has been accomplished.

What the influencer in your country is doing is more of business than it is of passion. I have seen some people share out Bitcoin Mertc for free just for the awareness purposes.

But in this case I can see someone who is trying to use bitcoin popularity for his own good and it’s so sad people are actually taking advantage of that, he is lucky that there one person that has trade marked bitcoin if not that won’t be possible.

And he might even at some point as well be tag for conspiracy against the government which is a very big offense that might lead to a brutal consequences.

There are other ways he would have done this than putting himself in a big mess and also placing a price on the t-shirts I'm wouldn't be a nice idea because you don't expect to buy a t-shirt for that amount and still be at the risk of bearing the consequences of wearing the t-shirt.

For example, there are some signs or stickers one will see on clothes, and you will just overlook them and conclude that they're just a design.

And also, I hope it's safe to wear those clothes around your country because I noticed that the online store you publish here doesn't allow someone outside your country to buy them yet. So if people only living in your country are the only ones to buy those shirts, is it safe to publicly wear them since buying and selling Bitcoin is not allowed in your country? Just concerned about safety. You know, some countries are so strict with their rules that they punish any idea that tends to go against the regulations.

This is a business and also a very good idea because indirectly those who wear clothes with the bitcoin logo can introduce bitcoin to people who still don't know bitcoin when wearing it. And with this, people who are still not familiar with it will be lured by nice t-shirts with the bitcoin logo, because if they are interested in those t-shirts with the bitcoin logo, they will ask what is bitcoin. Or they can look for it themselves by looking for it on the internet if curious.
although bitcoin is now popular but I'm sure there are still many people who don't know about it at all, and introducing various ways to show the bitcoin logo is a good move.
and in my opinion the t-shirt with the bitcoin logo that you are displaying is very good and also matches the color of the shirt and the color of the writing or the bitcoin logo, very interesting.

One of the influencer in my country has started the business of selling the shirts with bitcoin logo on it. This will not only help him get some business but at the same time, it is a step towards the crypto awareness.

Keep in mind that we live in a country where we are not allowed to buy and sell through bitcoin. Therefore he is selling the shirts in the fiat currency however all the shirts have Bitcoin logo over it. This is the maximum he can do to promote bitcoin. I hope when some day bitcoin may become a legal tender here also, then he can do the transactions in Bitcoin.
