Their has never been anytime when an investment is successful when one is forced. When people claim they were been forced to make an investment of anything happens to the invest all blames will be one you. Their is nothing wrong when you share knowledge about an investment with someone but it is never tight trying force or convince someone to go into an investment that the person is never ready to invest willingly.  Investment is a thing of choice and it will be good if people will make their choice of choosing investment for themselves.

Well that's true , forcing someone to do anything ain't right , because of by any chances anything goes wrong you will be the one to be blamed , but most people that have such mindset of blaming others for any slight thing that happens to them , ain't ready to make it or being successful, because the time you are mature enough to take responsibility, that's when you will see things working fine , because for example alot of people where given the privilege of being recommended to invest on bitcoin back then when the price was not up to the recent price (low) but still alot of people fade and throw that opportunity away because of the mindset of being scared to take risk , while others fully took those step in investing on it , but now those set of people are in good profits now , while those that fade are regretting it now saying had I known.

I highly doubt that!
Having to force someone to invest is a bad idea, isn’t something I would advise of anyone but, it doesn’t mean it always goes wrong. Some persons have been advised against their guts to pick up some investing and they did and it came out nice. It’s always a step towards building courage to investing in some fields but, not the best means. I still would t support it either but, I just want to recount that, it doesn’t always ends badly.

When it comes to Bitcoin investment, given it’s volatile nature, it’s a no on persuasion, just something you shouldn’t do given the risk involved.

I always say that investing in Bitcoin is more like a gamble and in gambling there are two things involved, it's either you lose or you win, and pressuring a newbie that knows nothing about the rise and fall of Bitcoin to invest is attracting problems for yourself if anything goes wrong at the end of the day because they think it's invest today and cash out tomorrow which is obviously not the case. Though there's nothing wrong in telling your friends and relatives to invest in Bitcoin but let it be only without pressure or imposing it on anyone to avoid being held responsible for their loses because people are impatient these days.

That is why I don't like forcing someone to go into bitcoin investment because if they experience any lose in the market you will be hold responsible unlike as you said earlier. of course most people think bitcoin Investment is a get rich quick scheme, without knowing that bitcoin Investment requires a lot of time and patient is not like that of meme Investment that you can get profited within a short term, that is why I always avoid telling people about bitcoin investment because they might go with it the wrong way.

There are different set of people, that's why one need to mind the kind of people he or she recommends to invest in Bitcoin. To me someone telling you to invest in Bitcoin shows that , that Individual care about and the individual has a nice heart only bad person will see something that's good and keep it to himself. So for someone who can exercise good patient bitcoin long-term investment is the best For them because if such individual where able to pull it off holding for long like 4-5 years and bitcoin surge as normal .  That Individual will be in good profit.

Those that are in to just get rich quick like magic , through this space are mostly called the impatient one and they easily fall as victims In Investing in the wrong project (like investing in some lame shitcoins).
You are right. People who can take your advice on investment can be advised but one class of people you cannot advise or they will misunderstand you. I think someone can be convinced on his own to invest in bitcoin especially if he is worthy in your view. You may also campaign personally by selecting individuals that are completely within your range. I do my best to move investments away from shitcoin so that other investors don't suffer unnecessary losses. And commit yourself to long-term bitcoin investments.
Bitcoin can lead you to a reasonable profit with long holdings.

I don't quite agree with your analogy because to me gambling is totally different from investment in Bitcoin. In gambling, when you lose, all your money is gone but in Bitcoin, you only lose money when you sell. If you can wait out bearish season, you will hardly lose money in Bitcoin. Bitcoin is less emotionally draining and those who held for a longer time get richer. Instead of comparing investment in Bitcoin to gambling, it is wise to compare buying some new coins to gambling because you are not sure if the coin will survive or fail.... this is the real definition of gambling. To support this, people buy memecoins with small amount of money such as they are able to lose whereas they invest in Bitcoin with big amount because they know the risk is lower in Bitcoin.

There are some people who may never be interested in investing in Bitcoin even when they see the need to invest I think the best thing is to ignore them instead of putting so much pressure on them for them to invest. It is not every one that understands the meaning of investing for the future I think anyone who's interested in Bitcoin investments won't waste time to invest regardless of the current economic situation.
The only person right wey I fit put pressure for body to invest in bitcoin na be myself and nah that one be the best thing to do as sef motivation. As no be every person wey understand investment na so wey no be every person understand bitcoin, so person wey no sabi the importance of investment na how him wan use gather interest for bitcoin? Bitcoin on a normal no be for everybody na make them call am alternative of fiat currency system. And na people wey don tire for the policing wey centralized finance don do us na go seek for that available alternative wey be bitcoin.

Of course, you are right, we don't need to force or impose anyone to invest or trade in Bitcoin, everyone has it's choice of decision making because if they are force to do what they don't want to do and something goes wrong, they will put the blame on the person that force them to do it and it might even result to hatred, quarrel etc and can even destroy relationships which will make them regret why they force their friends or loved ones to do what they don't want to do, because investing in Bitcoin is not all about the money but how we can handle things when matters arise especially when the market it's fluctuating and how to react when such matter came up. So instead of forcing them, we should teach them the basic knowledge of it and leave them to decide if they will loved to join or not just like you said.

Investment is something that doesn't require force, it should only be the desire of the person to invest on Bitcoin because when he or she has a serious passion for Bitcoin investment it makes everything more easier and understandable for him to know all the risk that could be associated on the investment, however the reason why people should abstain from forcing people into Bitcoin investment is that the level of most people understanding on Bitcoin is actually different because most beginner feel that immediately they venture into Bitcoin investment they would start making huge money and if after there investment and they were not able to see any tangible profits they will be discouraged and start regretting and from there putting the blame on the person who persuade them into investing on Bitcoin.

So their is no need to force someone into Bitcoin and besides Bitcoin is an open investment for anybody who is interested to invest so trying to persuade someone into it could something result a serious problem because most people had gotting themselves into trouble because of that, we no that Bitcoin is a very potential coin that can change somebody's life positively in the future but that doesn't mean that someone will leave to concentrate on his accumulation of Bitcoin to look for somebody to persuade into Bitcoin investment because it doesn't make sense to me but if on the other hand they are willing to learn their is no problem to show them because at that point they are actually the one that came to you and if after venturing into Bitcoin and he chose to trade and the process lose the money it will not be on you because you did not force him into Bitcoin trading.

Those of us wey don do Ponzi scheme before and how it ended with the referrals thing no go wan involved in anything related or give any financial advice to anyone again, because of anything happen along the way na you go bear all the blame,  den no go even reason your matter, den go begin worry you for their money.

Bitcoin is volatile before Una go involve any third party or a newbie make una tell them it's not something they will invest today and gain tomorrow and only those willing to hold for a longer time should buy..

Introducing Bitcoin to a freind or close relation is actually a good thing to do but not when it is mandatorily imposed on them. First move is making them understand about Bitcoin, it's benefit and disadvantages, let them know all what they are about getting into, on a matter of truth if it interest them they will surely invest their money, it can also go the other way round when they do not find it appealing, you don't need impose on them, if they were then they will certainly grow the urge of taking back their funds when the market faces little down side.

Of course, you are right, we don't need to force or impose anyone to invest or trade in Bitcoin, everyone has it's choice of decision making because if they are force to do what they don't want to do and something goes wrong, they will put the blame on the person that force them to do it and it might even result to hatred, quarrel etc and can even destroy relationships which will make them regret why they force their friends or loved ones to do what they don't want to do, because investing in Bitcoin is not all about the money but how we can handle things when matters arise especially when the market it's fluctuating and how to react when such matter came up.

I decided to bring this information to our notice here because of a particular event that happened today that I was opportuned to witness. I understand that we all that have been around the forum where discussions and informations about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency are made have taken the opportunity to invest and some of us if not all have benefited from our investments and it has positively affected our thinking because we now see the investment as something we can not do without. Even as we encourage some of our brethren to invest, we shouldn't made it mandatory as if they will have no other opportunities in life to become rich if they do not invest in cryptocurrency. Back to what I witnessed today which led to this information, a guy was busy blasting his friend in public for not investing in Bitcoin when the price was below 40k on hearing them from afar, I came closer to really understand why he was so angry with his friend I overheard him saying that he can no longer be taking care of him because he refused to invest when he asked him to. There are some people who may never be interested in investing in Bitcoin even when they see the need to invest I think the best thing is to ignore them instead of putting so much pressure on them for them to invest. It is not every one that understands the meaning of investing for the future I think anyone who's interested in Bitcoin investments won't waste time to invest regardless of the current economic situation.
I don't think if there is anybody that will not love to make investment with the expectation of a good return in the near future but the problem is understanding the nature of the investment. Considering the level of fraulence activities in the world now especial in internet everybody is afraid of digital investment like Bitcoin, cryptocurrency or other Blockchain investment so I think before telling someone to invest in Bitcoin there is need to train the person to have a better understanding of Bitcoin before going into the main investment because telling someone that is ignorant of Bitcoin to investment his/her hard earn money on Bitcoin will be seen as a cock and bull story to the person.
@Bestcandy, you have said it all, the best way to tell anyone to invest in Bitcoin is by making them to understand the market by themselves, let them understand the risk and gain in bitcoin. So that if it turns out bad he or she won't blame you for it. A friend of mine is in debt today because of bitcoin investment,  he forced one of his friend to invest his contribution money into bitcoin,  when bitcoin was 60k, he bought BTC, later that year BTC fall to 20k. He lost all his money, the worst part is that my friend lost his Trust wallet secret phrase,  its funny, but my guy is paying the debt till date, the novice refused to accept that he invested the money.

It's advisable, you force no one without the knowledge of BTC to invest. Excerpt you are ready to bear the outcome.

There are alot of financial implications when it comes to pressuring someone to invest in Bitcoin.
1. Diversification of investment: the money originally planned to used for another purpose is been shifted into Bitcoin investment thereby keeping the other investment pending
2. Over investing: pressure may lead to investing more than they can afford
3. Investing in Bitcoin without proper risk management strategies can lead to heavy loss and damage the already existing relationship you have with the investor
4. Lack of understanding: investing in Bitcoin without proper knowledge and understanding of Bitcoin may lead to heavy loss,
5. Financial risk: investing in Bitcoin is a financial risk worth taking, but pressuring someone who is not ready to take the risk is another thing all together.
My people you can only convince someone to Invest telling him the benefits of it, but pls don't pressure anyone to invest, make them no blame you for there loss.

There is really nothing wrong telling people around you about Bitcoin investment, how Bitcoin works, things to do to enable you hold your potential coin for a longer time, but trying to force them or put pressure on them to invest in Bitcoin is very wrong everyone has their to life to live and things to do with there time.
Why it is wrong to pressure anyone to invest in Bitcoin is that most of them will believe Bitcoin to be a get rich quick scheme investing today and cashing out big tomorrow now when they finally accept to invest and at the end what they were expecting to see is no longer what they are seeing they will start putting pressure on your too that made them invest into Bitcoin at they moment you won't have peace of mind.
Secondly Bitcoin as volatile asset which price is always unpredictable can go dip and some one whom you have pressure to invest in Bitcoin probably he invested with a huge amount of money and he do not understand how the Bitcoin market works that the price can also rise at anytime may go into high blood pressure and die at the process, so it is never good to pressure people to invest in Bitcoin unless they make the choice there self.
Let's really be reasonable here, why on earth will someone force or put pressure for another man body to invest in bitcoin, what's that person gain or what's he trying to achieve, abi bitcoin dey do referals program wey him go benefit if the person invest for bitcoin. My broda make we kukuma dey our dey make the person dey in dey. Even if  the person invest and it turns out to be a fruitful investment in the future the person no go fit give me shishi so why bother myself on another man's headache. If na person come meet me for consultancy onto bitcoin investment I fit give am professional advice unto say him/she waka come meet me and filled my consultation form. And the thing be say some people are so daft that the moment they hear bitcoin them go dey think say you wan scam them. Omo na to mind your business ooo make every oma carry their own cross. Me self wey dey into bitcoin today I no worry anybody or meet any body to teach me. Na YouTube I carry learn everything wey I sabi today for the bitcoin side, so make every body sort themselves out.

Quote from: Kelward
No be lie, nobody suppose to force or pressure another person to invest in Bitcoin, even if im get di best intentions for di person wey im de tell. You fit to force a horse to the stream but you no fit to force am to drink water from di stream, so you fit to tell your trusted friends about di investment but e suppose be dem choice to decide weda dem wan go ahead with Bitcoin matter or not.
Anyone u forced to invest in BTC investment without having d knowledge of BTC, u are not doing d person good because u need to teach d person first to ensure d person understand before u can tell such person to invest in BTC.

I Believe there are some people that follow d advise of their friends, and dey have d interest to learn decentralized currency to have idea before investing their money and it's working for them because dey were willing to learn decentralized currency, which are d type of people u can discuss BTC with.
Quote
Nobody know am finish, you sabi Bitcoin investment, but e fit to get anoda investment wey de legit and wey de beta pass Bitcoin, and if person de preach dat investment to us, we fit no listen, unto say we don reason say na Bitcoin be di ultimate.
But there is a way u go no this BTC investment, it will be hard for u to see lost in your investment because u no were to sell to make profit that will make u to continue using that partner that is making u professional in d investment.

You are right, because everyone has a choice to make  and so knows what works for them better, there's actually no need trying to convince someone who have a different perspective about something different from yours.
Apart from everyone have a choice, the way and manner OP explained the scenario is not a good thing to do even if you have made millions and that your friend is yet to invest, there is no need to blast him publicly because Bitcoin transactions itself is not legal in Nigeria.

Bitcoin is still subjective across different arms of government. So far, what we have understood is that the government is more focus on trying to avoid people from having access to usdt and NGN market than the crypto itself. If the government really want Bitcoin and crypto to be ban, they would have announced it and tells us that to stop invoking in crypto transactions but so far, their main focus is p2p market which they think it's because of Binance and other exchanges that has allowed Nigerians to trade.

With the way things are changing in the country, it's actually better to avoid public display of Bitcoin or anything that concerns cryptocurrency because of how abusive some law enforcement are when they see an opportunity, they would want to use you as scape goat for extortion because they know nothing about the law.

Quote
Bitcoin investment is a choice and no one should be blamed if they don’t feel comfortable to invest; some of us wants to invest but they lack capital to start the investment while some have the capital but don’t feel comfortable to invest due to fear of market volatility.

At this stage I'm, I don't want to teach or involve anyone to buy Bitcoin, not because I don't want them to buy or invest but because many of them are impatient these days, they just want to invest and get profits withoit understanding what they even investing there money into. If they want to invest, the condition is I will teach them first before they invest.

Exactly, you can't just go and start teaching or persuading or trying to convince someone to invest in Bitcoin. We know Bitcoin is a very nice place to invest in but it's not compulsory that everyone must be involved in it. However, there are also nice project that is worth investing on not only Bitcoin and pressuring someone to invest in Bitcoin is putting yourself in risk cause there are people that are so adamant and aggressive so if anything should make the investment go wrong (not as planned or as you told the person it will ) definitely there's going to be a problem and off course that can be very embarrassing.

Investing in Bitcoin has never been an issue, but how long a person able to HODL his BTC is what matters most, because who knows if this his friend had invested in Bitcoin the moment he told him too, and then due to impatience, lack of understanding later sold it out, simply because he wasn't interested in such asset. And that doesn't mean he may not be solely interested in others. Hence, it's true not to always think of people who didn't  invest in Bitcoin, can never make it in life, as though Bitcoin is the currency and asset for the future, it's not the only investment plan.
