Topic: Do you have a hard time bringing new people to the forum? - page 3. (Read 2014 times)
Bitcoin is not a very simple thing so it is not possible to convince someone about Bitcoin by force. People in my area know very little about Bitcoin and technological knowledge is very less among them which makes it very difficult for me if I want to teach them about Bitcoin. But if someone wants to know something about Bitcoin from me, I try to tell as much as I know. Some people can master things very quickly and some people don't understand things even after a long time. It depends on who is more interested in learning or knowing
I’m a newbie here and I really need relevant information on how to trade in bitcoin and mining. If you have knowledge that can help me grow please don’t hesitate to put me through. The primary reason why I join the forum. Thanks
Welcome to the forum! Here are some links that will help you understand the fundamentals and technical aspects of Bitcoin. I added a playlist of Andreas Antonopoulos YouTube videos incase you prefer to watch videos than reading. https://learnmeabitcoin.com/

The history of Bitcoin is not an ancient history, as we all know it started in 2008. Many know about its history from few months and some nations from few years. Since Bitcoin is digital online currency and time is running now online. We can get news of the country and abroad through online which was not available even a few years back i.e. around 1975. As an online medium I think any subject is known from within the house. The main development of our discussion is that Bitcoin is a very sensitive topic, so we have to resort to the more experienced people in the forum to learn about this very interesting topic, which is not possible to know its basic history from online. I think that just like the knowledge of experienced people is needed to know about bitcoins, the more people know and buy in the hope of higher profits in long-term bitcoin investment, the more people know and buy, the more you get the advantage of selling at a higher price.
For me, I have barely understood myself here nor grasp the full concept of this forums existence, but am just following through with my little input and I know that one day, my eyes will be opened to the advantages of belonging here.
Until I can understand this forum in and out, am not sure I want to tell another person about it, so as I don't have to make longer explanations than necessary.

How did you learn about this forum in the first place? Were you referred by someone, or did you find it yourself, and how? I'm curious because you said your eyes are still not open to the advantages of belonging to this forum, which means you don't have a precise aim or purpose behind your joining. You should at least know why you are here.
For example, I can tell you how and why I joined the forum. I was keen to learn how one can earn money online, and during that research, I learned about Bitcoin. While trying to find more information about Bitcoin, I stumbled upon this forum, and to be honest, I consider myself lucky for it because it helped me shape my journey in the cryptocurrency universe. Without it, I would probably get scammed a few times and stay away from cryptocurrencies forever.
So, the moral of the story is that this forum is a wealth of knowledge. I don't know whether you will realize it or not because it depends on your basic purpose behind joining the forum; however, those who join it with the purpose of learning don't get disappointed.

You really don't need to teach or bring people here if you don't know about the forum much because you both might just fall on the wrong side, either having a wrong idea of how the forum works or breaking the rules unknowingly. Until I can understand this forum in and out, am not sure I want to tell another person about it, so as I don't have to make longer explanations than necessary.
Although there are some people who are very smart, with little knowledge they will end up getting everything right by themselves. Let me just use the person I introduced to the forum for the exam when I was not much active here. With just little guidance I rendered, he made something big that is currently more ranked than I'm, but I won't give you the same idea.
I will advise you to focus and learn first, but share knowledge where necessary, and if you see anyone in search of knowledge, they can still be directed to come here to seek answers.

During the Christmas holidays, I traveled to different places and one of my main target was to introduce Bitcoin and this forum to as many people as I could. I did but it was not really as easy as I expected because at a point, I was confused on where to start and how to proceed. I wanted a way of shortening the entire process for them, knowing that not everyone will be patient to go through the complex and rigorous process of learning about Bitcoin and the forum itself as a newbie. When I was first introduced into this forum, I was overwhelmed by the workload, the rules, many things to learn and indeed the expectations from me as a newbie. I actually ran away, stayed for a very long time before I remembered I had to face the new task for which I signed up.
I picked myself up and proceeded and I consider that one of the best decision of my life. Today I'm more than motivated to help as many people as possible to grasp this whole things as I know the benefits are innumerable. I don't consider it enough to encourage them to read through the forum because I still remember how difficult it was for me as a newbie, so I'm challenged in my spirit that there should be an easier way to go about introducing the entire concept to newbies.

I myself can't remmeber precisely what has made want to know about bitcoin & criyptocurrencies.
I am really trying to introduce some youngsters to this new world - it is being really hard to explain. I use to reccomend Youtube Channels (for portuguese language, we have good ones, like Biticonheiros, Área Bitcoin, Denny Torres - if the one can speak english, I also reccomend the BTC Session) and books (Bitcoin – a moeda na era digital, by Fernando Ulrich).
Actually, I initially try to make people aware of the importance to go deep in the subject - also to prevent them to buy in ATH and avoid scamms (they are everywhere, specially in the bull market).
But I must say it is a very difficult task, because people usually want to know only about profits (this is not bad), but tends to ignore important issues (this is really bad), putting thir assets at risk (and privacy and safety) - specially in this time we live, of short videos cuts for quick dopamine.
Edit: I was thinking to give papper wallets, with some satoshis, as Christmass presents, for friends/relatives - but I don't know.

Your experience is truly amazing. It is much appreciated that you help newbies about bitcoin and forums. When I was new to the forum I found things very scary and complicated but every newbie feels like this because there are so many rules and things to learn. It is really challenging to guide every newbie. Your tenacity and determination to guide them through this challenge is commendable.

So far I have only introduced this forum to the people closest to me and the majority of them do not have a strong interest in contributing to this forum, perhaps because they are busy in the real world. btw, this forum experienced a surge in visitors when bounty campaigns became more popular around 2017 to 2019, after the number of scam campaigns increased, slowly many people withdrew and were no longer active, the last time I noticed the advertisement after the campaign was banned, more and more members had good reputation is slowly leaving this forum, how come the ones who survive in this forum are those who truly feel that this has become their second home.
The people I have met these days have been more interested in physical job and pay and nothing to do with cryptocurrency, they say. The reality is that what anyone believes in, will actually work in their favor and having to make someone believe in this forum will mean they have come to show interest in cryptocurrency, mostly bitcoin and that they are closer, as in more intimate or share blood bond for them to trust one enough to believe in the currency that is digital and not physical.
Our success in this forum with the way we show our understanding when it comes to cryptocurrency will do more to advertise this forum because people always want to know the true source of ones knowledge on a subject matter, mostly as it concerns a future currency that is gaining ground already.

I have had difficulties trying to explain what the forum is all about to the few people who had interest to learn or become members here and I think my experience with them is the major reason why I don't talk about the forum again whenever I'm with them.
It take a long time before people will believe that you are teaching them what will profit them in this forum ,which is what I went through before I understood BTC and crypto business very well in the forum and it has helped me to improve in quality post.Since I discovered so many important things in this Bitcointalk.org forum, i began to see some signature campaign and bounty campaign that can turn users to millionaires, i quickly quit some things that is making me busy not to be active in the forum.
Whenever I see the person that introduced me to this forum, I used to appreciate her for impacted me with BTC and crypto and also make me to be part of the best forum in the whole world, and once BTC and crypto is unbanned in my country, I will surely introduce people to this forum to know more about BTC and crypto.
not everyone has confidence in bitcoin like we do here, so i'm too lazy to invite other people into this forum because it will only waste my time and energy. if they are interested in learning about bitcoin, yes i will invite them to join this forum, but if they are not that interested i will not be bothered to invite them because it is pointless anyway.
You are absolutely right because going around to tell people to join Bitcoin it looks some how for me because there is no how that you would convince them to joined, because although you we see doing that we make you to waist your time at the end of the day because they always feel that this one that you are disturbing them to joined like this that may be if they should joined that at the end that you are going to earn money from there head. No, I don't have a hard time because I don't even try to convince anyone of anything related to Bitcoin. If I hear someone talking about it I play dumb. The less people know that I have Bitcoin, the better. And the less I would even think of talking about it while traveling around. You want to put a bull's eye on yourself.
You are totally right, and it's not everyone who will know about Bitcoin ( in my opinion though) and also some people can't understand the concept of it even if they are being taught night and day.
And I don't think everyone has to do Bitcoin or crypto, that is why we have other careers or profession for other people to who can't do crypto.
So for me as well, I don't think it's advisable to force or stress myself to bring anyone into this forum, and to some who knows that I'm into it and are interested to learn, I will also gladly teach but trying to make it a mandatory thing for them to be a part of this forum, I can't.
It's not even a year since I came to the forum, I'm still learning more this forum, I haven't made any kind of effort with anyone to get to know Bitcointalk forums so far. I first came to know about this forum through one of my brothers. Although I have talked to several people about Bitcoin investing, and they have expressed interest. If they ask me a lot to learn about bitcoin or other coins then I can talk about and definitely tell them to join the forum.
Bitcoin forum is one of the best place to gian knowledge about Bitcoin, and having multiple members of the forum sharing they own idea and knowledge about a topic make reading fun for the one that ask the question, and what make Bitcointalk better than any other place for discussing Bitcoin related topics is the fact that wrong idea can't be shared that will be acceptable, the moment anyone spot the wrong comment it get reported to moderator for delation.Unlike some other place like blogs where the writers have every opportunity to spread wrong message unchecked.
For anyone that like Bitcoin, coming to the forum or getting introduced to the forum won't be a hard job for them, but those that lack motivation about Bitcoin will fine the forum hard to adapt to easily.

Actually there's nothing wrong with bringing people in this forum, but one thing about me I don't like forcing someone to do something that he don't even intend to do in the first place. except the person work up to me to seek for help from me that's when I can only teach you about how it works, so that should in case of anything i won't be hold responsible for that. because most people after introducing them into something probably they can go with it the wrong way, at this point people will keep blaming you for that.
When I started bitcointalk,I wasn't thought much,they told me what to do,show me how it works and I started making posts perfectly in this forum without stress.I know it might look hard trying to tell other person's,but I know I haven't told anybody about it,reason being that I want them to ask me what I do before I start telling them before they will blame me that they didn't make money quick here.One just needs to be careful in other not to enter trouble.
The forum is not some random ponzi schemes where you bother and tries to convince people to join, I know it's not easy but the best results comes with consistency, discipline and diligent efforts. Everyone is here to grow and become well-known om forum, we do our very best. Bitcointalk is not difficult as it seems right? For me, it was simple when I started and with my help of my close friend, everything was made easier because he leisure me on how to use the system and today I'm at my peak on forum.

If I would introduce bitcoin and Bitcointalk forum to a friend of mine,first I would examine the person if he/she has an interest in tech stuff, because learning is the mindset.If the person's mindset is not built on learning about bitcoin that's the first stage that discourages me on introducing bitcoin and this forum to my friends.Lots of newbies who registered an account on Bitcointalk forum are no longer active all because they couldn't abide to the rules and regulations of the forum.And failure to learn and make contributions on quality post can also discourage a newbie since low quality posts are not merited.Before introducing this forum or bitcoin to any person it could be your friend,you should be security concoius because you don't know the intention of the person.
In addition if I would want to introduce this forum to a friend I will tell the person to read more, contribute less and make quality posts.It is said when your in Rome act like a Roman so every newly registered persons should adapt with other members in this forum.
