I follow these 3 steps/rules that I made:
1. Don't get aggressive:
A lot of bitcoin denier get VERY aggressive about how bitcoin is a scam, don't get aggressive. If they are too aggressive and mad, just change the subject for the moment. No need to waste time.
2. Make them doubt their convictions.
Make them doubt that bitcoin is a scam or doomed to fail. A couple of examples that I use are:
- This is comparable to when people wouldn't want to use their credit cards online because they were scared of fraud.
- Bitcoin is far from reaching it's full potential, mass adoption takes a lot of time. This is comparable to when Amazon just sold books or Google was nothing compared to Yahoo.. remember Yahoo? (laughs)
- Crypto currencies are the next steps in the evolution of payment : Barter -> Precious Metals -> Paper Money -> Plastic Cards -> Digital Money
3. Mention the Coinbase $10 when you buy $100 in Bitcoin and then let it simmer...
Let them think about it, they will so their research or ask around. Most will come back to you to get your code for the referral bonus.
Do you have other arguments that you use? I'd love to know.
