Topic: Do you have a hard time bringing new people to the forum? (Read 2014 times)

The forum is vast and has as lot of information that can help you in your personal life, although I tell some people about the benefits attached to the forum they get discouraged after a few days probably because they think getting merits would be very easy. Nothing good comes easy, for you to get the benefits of the forum you must be consistent and dedicated to what you are doing. For now I have stopped trying to convince anyone to get involved in the forum, I can only enlighten them about it, the decision to join is theirs to make. for you to succeed in anything personal efforts must be made.

Honestly there are so many things to learn in this forum and am always happy that I was able to stay, yeah it wasn't easy growing up but on hearing about the issues of those who came and couldn't stay, i made a decision that am not going to be recorded as one and today am really happy for so many things i have learnt, the forum doesn't only teaches about Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, it teaches so many things about life generally which is the reason while there are different boards, I never had any knowledge about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency before I joined the forum but today I have really learnt alot, but yeah any one not being able to cope here should be able to cope in something else. However, missing the knowledge of cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin in this digital investment era is really missing a lot and that i must say.

The unfavorable will always be difficult to invite. Even if they succeed in inviting them, maybe they will not last long and will not be able to last long. There may be many factors but I have proven that. Some of my friends who joined them were unable to survive and improve their accounts so they left. For those who don't know bitcoin and its advantages I think this forum is not important. But if they knew the truth this forum was very extraordinary. Free knowledge about crypto and its validation is widely available.

There is nothing wrong with a newbie seeing some kind of cash bonus as a motivator for themselves, but everything is interconnected here, you can grow if you are an active forum participant, when you learn and help other participants with their questions.
You won’t get quick money here and it’s hard to call it impressive either, it’s just a nice addition, understanding that you can get a little more bitcoin for being part of this forum. At first, newbies may lack patience, because growth is slowest at the beginning of their journey.

Sometimes, when you talk to them about the platform or let me say some other things, in most cases, they would not be interested but would give a yes nod to see what you are talking about. They would make you reveal it to them to see first then after they had seen it, they begin to act up just to indirectly tell you that they are not interested or convinced about the whole thing. At times it does not make any sense at all, why let people put their efforts just to make you understand a process when you are not interested in what they are telling you?

This attitude most times is the reason why people do not tell people what they do. Most people prefer to keep things to themselves because of this and in some cases, people that they are supposed to tell are ignored just because of the experience they have had in the past.

But you wouldnt know they are were not interested until you introduce them!

On a personal level I have introduced friends to the forum in the past, they were and still are
Bitcoiners and their common complaint is that it is not smartphone friendly, too much zooming!

I'm on the forum nearly 8 years and they cannot believe I am still here, I use it on my smartphone
and they couldnt be bothered with the zooming in and scrolling side to side, they have tried and have
shunned it and opted for the likes of Reddit.

Why should you introduce someone to Bitcoin or a Bitcoin discussion forum who doesn't want to?  Bitcoin is a popular virtual currency in the whole world that all developed countries are very interested in. If no one shows interest in it, I would not like to spend time on it.  But if someone asks me about them with great interest, I will help him. And I will give as honest an argument as I can.  But when you introduce them to someone who wasn't interested in them, they will blame you for it if they face a loss somehow.

You are right sir, when people are not ready to learn or see what you want them to see about something, they turn a blind eye to it making you feel as if you're stressing them, sometimes they make a mockery and all sorts of derogatory statement not knowing that it is for their own good. Some would even ask you questions about the benefits of what you are introducing to them and when it happens that one has not benefitted from the system that much, they just ignore and possibly start acting up on you making you feel as if you are inconveniencing them. I believe with time, many people who have heard about Bitcoin and this platform will rush back wanting to take back their place when the bull begins properly this year but I pray it should not be too late for them to take their position.

Joining this forum just to make money can lead to disappointment. If anyone only think about making money fast so he/s might rush and break rules which can get him/her in trouble and even banned. This can be very discouraging and might miss out on learning valuable things and achieving money goals. Instead of this it is better to focus on meeting new people learning and growing and not worry too much about money at first. If anyone patient and keep trying he/s learn useful things and maybe even get access to special services that can help him/her make more money which will make their experience more enjoyable.

The easiest way to get discouraged about this forum is joining purposely for money. Belive me, if you join the forum with the mindset that you are here simply because you want to make money, I bet you won't go far because you'll be eager to get your account to a stage where you would be able to make money with it. The process to reach that stage is actually not easy and you might end up breaking some rules just to achieve your aim as fast as possible. Apparently, you'll be penalised for breaking the rules by either temp or pam ban. You'll definitely get discouraged after several unsuccessful attempts and give up.

Consequently, You end up losing the knowledge you are supposed to gain by genuinely engaging with others here and of course, your aim to make money is also gone for good. To have a good ride here, it's very necessary to overlook the monetary aspect at the beginning in order not to get distracted with your learning process. If you can endure, you'll end up acquiring useful knowledge and probably engage with paid services here to boost your investment.

Asking questions is more important, maybe that’s one of the reasons newbies ask multiple questions seeking for directive. They can always get their answers here still it’s more easier when someone is available to teach about the forum rules and bitcoin. It’s difficult in terms of teaching mostly when the person is not knowledgeable about bitcoin, gradually the person will understand better meanwhile if the person in question is ready every other thing becomes easy. Well op mentioned visiting a place although I don’t know where exactly trust is still needed.

It hasn't been hard for me to bring in people into the forum, although I know I haven't started getting money from the forum,but the people who have heard about Bitcoin, immediately feel this forum can be a place where they can also make cool money and get a basic knowledge about bitcoin,and know how to invest in the forum too.
The only discouragement they get is when they've stayed for sometimes and haven't gotten what they wanted,it discourages  them,but some of them still keep pushing,the race is slow and steady.

After I had bad experiences in my early days to online business, I stopped involving people. There was when I advertised on social media about projects which I didn't know were scams. People listened to me and join, and behold the project failed and the following happened;
1. Some people started seeing me as a scammer even when I wasn't among the project owners, and infact my own money lost.
2. Some started seeing me as liar.
In order not to spoil my reputation, I decided to stop informing people about my adversities. But I had another limitation of not talking to people caused by someone.

Sometimes, I also get this things where I like to share the knowledge of crypto and specifically Bitcointalk as a pearl of crypto, the door to a great knowledge. I learned with time that some people are interested in knowing more about crypto than others, some of them are listening and after that, themselves they will do efforts to learn more and come back to me with better knowledge or questions to help them understand few terms or ways.

In the other hand, few people may look like they are interested in crypto and your knowledge, but later on you may find yourself wasting time with them for nothing. Bitcoin is something that I appreciate a lot, many people are always saying to me you are a bitcoin addict and I find it very funny, in one way they think it’s a mock, in my way I feel great about it.

In our society, region specifically, people are not really aware or educated enough about Crypto in general. We have a big gap between the actual world and us as 3rd world country. I find it very hard that one day we develop Bitcoin here, even knowing how it works or its benefits, people here miss many things before achieving this point.

In conclusion, adoption of Bitcoin, or bringing new people to this forum in our region is not just difficult, but almost impossible or useless.

You have done a good job by trying to spread out the awareness of Bitcoin and also the best community they can seek for the guidance about Bitcoin which is forum.with aware you have done I believe one or two people  may try to adopt Bitcoin and do their further research about it and with  that those people may have opportunity to introduce Bitcoin to their close people also. But the truth about Bitcoin is that is getting more awareness each and every day, even without we physically introducing it to people nowadays because people are discussing about it in almost every social media nowadays.

That is a fact about some set of people. In fact, even if you decided to teach them about Bitcoin every day, there will still be some who, after two days, may not attend the class again.The truth is, only a few people are patient enough to learn and try things properly first. The others are just looking for an easy way to make money, which is not possible.

One thing to note is that if someone lacks knowledge, they will always be easily scammed. The proper way to succeed in life is by taking the time to learn and acquire the right knowledge. Unfortunately, this is the step most people are unwilling to take first.

Travelling somewhere to introduce bitcoin to people is a nice idea; you are really trying. Although it’s not really an easy task to do because introducing someone to bitcoin is something I think is really risky because anything that happens after their investment, they will blame you, and that is why I don’t convince anyone to join the crypto space due to how risky it is.


The fact is that you can’t shorten the process; you need to teach them everything they are supposed to know, and they need to tell you that they have understood everything before you leave because of how the crypto space and the forum are. They need to know many things; in fact, it is not even something you should do in one day because they will not understand everything you teach them; they will only understand a few.

Especially those people living in the rural area because some of them have not heard or seen BTC before in the market, and it will be very hard for you to convince them in the rural area to learn BTC when they don't have idea of technology, because they will be looking at you as one of the scammer coming to the society to scam people money. People that live in the city and urban area have the knowledge of BTC and other cryptocurrencies, and they are use to television news, radio station and newspaper where some BTC investors use to display BTC and cryptocurrencies news for those that have Interest to apply.

You can start spending on them by creating some events for new people to come and learn BTC and receive some gifts from you, you will discover that people will start showing interest to learn BTC, and your name will be written with the golden pen in the society among the people that bringing progress to the society.

Well, to each their way of life. No one said it's wrong sharing information here. It's just that I hate beating a dead horse because I truly don't have that luxury of free time at my disposal to do that now. I did all that in the past but not anymore. I've a lot I'm chasing now to waste my time pushing anyone who isn't willing to learn.

That should even be a compelling force to want to make them get interested. If that doesn't get their interest that they could earn and at the same time acquire knowledge of Bitcoin and the entire crypto industry, I don't see what else will. So, talking to them further will be beating a dead horse.

I don't see anything wrong with sharing useful information with others, especially since it wouldn't cost you anything whether they followed your advice or not. The problem is that most people introduce the forum to others as a means of generating income, while this is just small part of the definition of the forum. Those who don't know much about cryptocurrencies will find it difficult to understand what you will advise them, especially if they are not forum users in general.

I will always prefer to introduce the forum as one of the largest and most important sources of knowledge, and therefore I will carefully choose the people with whom I will share information. I have previously introduced the forum to three people and only one of them is still active, and I can say that his whole life has changed since learning about crypto and blockchain.

It is very difficult to explain to people. It is seen that when you tell them, they are very interested in learning and want to know what kind of questions to ask. When given some directions, they are explained and given something to learn; then, it is seen that they are not interested in it. At first, they want to learn with great desire, but later, it is seen that it becomes a matter of neglect. Then, they do not want to learn anything else. If you ask them if you want to learn it, I give you all kinds of directions, but why are you not learning? They make various excuses. By making various excuses, they do not learn it anymore.

I also understood that someone should learn about this forum, but after understanding it that day, the next time, they ignored it and never came to learn it.
