Not easy bringing some one to the forum and introduce them how to more close understand with bitcoin, back to 2017 ever bring some people in this forum and right now there are not any one keep here before losing opportunity without earn much profitable yet when joining with forum. Actually don't ask them for joining the forum but prefer waiting who of them are interested to know with bitcoin trough this forum and easily bring them keep stay here until become success.

I think the best approach is only to inform them about bitcoin or the forum. But if they consult you, the best way to spur any individual is to show your statement of comprehensive income from the forum.
Like a post I came across yesterday in BEGINNERS AND HELP BOARD where someone was testifying about the best profit he had made in bitcoin citing where he invested $100 and in two days time he gained profit of $80.  
I tried many best approach to talk some one with forum and benefit get later actually after has knowledge with bitcoin will b easy earn profitable and make forum as part time job as source income. Many of them lack patience when one month nothing good progress will leaves forum and try to other way just in short time only. If you have decision bring some one to the forum better waiting their own self motivation not our recommended.

It is said that it is difficult depending on who you invite. I once invited someone who didn't have any knowledge about crypto and he thought this was just a forum that didn't produce anything, especially with a merit system, there was nothing that could be done. after that I never invited anyone to this forum, those who come and ask certainly know how this forum provides income. But in the end it will only be a temporary visit and disappear.

As for the forum, my boss used to make weekly withdrawals before me and he is living upto expectation that was what made me to consult him though he did not tell me, that time matters, that it is not a get rich quick scheme.

Learning the forum takes a lot of patience from reading and studying the forum, so if you are not a reader and has no motivation to learn, you will definitely not last longer in the forum. This is why I don’t beg for people to get to know the forum, because if they really are interested to learn, then they will do on their own willingness to learn.

However, I used to do this before introducing bitcointalk to the close people I’ve known but it never worked out since a lot of them don’t have spare time to learn and read the forum, in short they’re not interested on what’s they’re going to benefit from the forum.

I haven’t really had such challenges and I’m not really sure what part exactly where you find it challenging. However, why don’t you just lead them here and let the other forum members help too? We always have newbies who are lost or who don’t know their way around the platform and if they make a post asking for help, they get a lot of response. So I think you can tell them about the platform and leave the rest to the goodwill of the other forum members. What do you think?

For me Except someone really ask you about it and want to learn there's no need of being Evangelist on it. I saw my friend on this platform doing well, it motivated me to join. I know it'll take but i already prepared myself for it.

Well, you can’t expect that people will always agree on what you think is right. We have different opinions and ideas, and what suits and best for us may not what it seems right for them. That’s the reason why I don’t have plans to bring the people I’ve known to learn about the forum. Although I can always help them with that if they ask me to help them, but taking so much of my time to invest for their knowledge, probably that’s not me anymore.

Honestly no. Because I don’t set any goals to bring people closer to the forum or to invest in bitcoin. Let them discover on their own. Because if they really aim to make big changes in their lives, they will find their way to the forum or to make themselves acquainted with bitcoin. Otherwise, pushing them or convincing them into what I think is right might only lead to blame me in the future when everything does not work as planned, so I just let the people around find its way to this forum or to bitcoin.

Personally, I never bring people to this forum first. Because after all, I will not be able to guarantee how and what can be produced from here. Because most of those who ask about this forum are sure to have heard or know that you can make money from here. So several times I heard that they wanted to come here and wanted to get money quickly, and strangely enough, I had time to think about many things from here. It's as if that is what they really think about and is the main goal for being here, namely to have a lot of income easily.
That's why, if anyone really wants to enter and join this forum, I always invite them to learn about anything here, not immediately focus on the income they can get. What you are fighting for and what your efforts are here will determine the results you can get here. And of course, never promise big results by joining this forum.

It's no one's responsibility to bring more users to bitcointalk, but I tend to prefer introducing them to bitcoin. If they are interested in bitcoin and feel it is important to discuss, then I can recommend them to come to this forum. There is a difference between being interested in bitcoin discussions and being interested in the opportunity to make money on the bitcointalk, usually the motivation is different.

There is no specific invitation and I am not willing to introduce bitcointalk specifically to random people without any basic interest in bitcoin. For me, this is not a challenge, nor a responsibility.

In my case, I have a very close friend who used to post here (I convinced him to come here) back in 2017-2018. Merit system discouraged him and stopped posting (he was about to rank up when the new policy came into force). In fact, it also happened to me, at a lower degree.

I've been recently insisting him to come back, but he works many hours and the little time he has left he needs to rest, apart from the fact that here in Spain people don't often communicate in English so his level is quite low, which makes it even harder for him to participate in any discussions here apart from the ones held in our local board.



Merit system expose lazy people and their intention since they will not last long here since they might find it hard and state a lot of reason then quit. This will mean that this forum is for those people who can spend a lot of time researching a lot and can able to provide good interaction to other people since if they could just able to get a knowledge first and stop focusing on the benefits for sure they will not get frustrated and rather they might spend time to discuss a lot of things about crypto.

Working hours is not actually a reason for people to stop using this forum since if they are really interested to partake or spend time here for sure they find ways to spend some minutes to know how the forum works and go participate in the discussions tackled up by people in this platform.

Well, I don't know you but if I only had 3 hours a day to have dinner and spend little time with my family before going to bed, I think that I would also prefer to spend that time with them instead of researching and posting in this or any other forum.

You're right: lazy people have no room here; but there are other reasons too for not being here, apart from laziness.

You won't know the benefits of keeping silence on some things until you find yourself hooked in wrong places or people. Before now, I had this attitude of wanting to talk to persons around me I perceive to be smart about bitcoin and the benefits but it started to turn upside down. differently from what and how i expected it will go. Did you know I had some persons around me nicknaming me bitcoin man.
Aside the security threat that can have on me when strangers hear someone calling me such name I also felt embarrassed, and somehow I had restrain from talking about it except it's with someone that's already into bitcoin. The brainwash is that when people hear you're into bitcoin they quick assume you must be swimming in too much money and may decide to mark you for attack. Staying low is safer and better.  Let them make use of the internet

As for your first visit to the forum, that is how things work here. No one will tell me that this is their first time here and that they find it so easy; those who claim otherwise must have heard about it or experienced it themselves. Without patience, you will never be able to accomplish anything in this life. I was first introduced to this forum by someone I believe in, so I never give up, even though there was a period when things weren't going well and I thought I might as well give up. However, because I have patience and hope for the forum, I am still here today, participating in discussions, sharing ideas, and learning more about it.

Regarding introducing people to the forum, I truly struggle with doing so because many of the people I have introduced have left because they couldn't stand it and I didn't hold it against them. A small percentage of people still believe in this forum, but many of the people I introduced have left. I have made it clear that I won't introduce anyone to the forum again unless they approach me and ask me to do so because doing so without their request is like wasting my time, and some may assume you are going to scam them.

I don't know if any of you faced this challenge, if yes, how were you able to proceed?

My journey towards the Bitcointalk in 2016 where I was in the search of online earning opportunity. In this years I created accounts in many websites but I gives up and then I start proper work after some years. I learned a lot here especially from local membera who guide me well. It is not easy for complete newbies to follow all rules and most of them even don't know the real purpose of this Forum.

As far as attracting new members so I think our strategy should be change for every person. Some people just want to earn by doing various task so we can introduce them bounty section, similarly some members are fond of knowledge ,some people work to trade so we can introduce Bitcointalk according to everyone mindset. Local board can play a good role for this purpose where one can start from here and the gradually he will learn and understand the BTT forum

Once a man, twice a child!
Back in 2017, when I search about Bitcoin, Bitcointalk is on the first page of google search, but nowadays there are a lot of internet site that talked about crypto and Bitcoin, and maybe those site are appears first, on the top google search, not Bitcointalk anymore.
Oh, you noticed it too? I thought this site not popping up on search like before was from my side and how I was searching. Now I know better. It may even get worse with time and dwindle further out of high visibility especially now that members of our community are porting to a sister forum. Soon, the sister forum will begin to get more views and that will increase its search presence and score (or whatever it's called). I came across this forum (BTT) with ease in 2017 through a search engine.

Why would you do that ? i mean, this forum is for the crypto related people and those people don't need anyone to bring them to this forum and the other people, i mean the people who don't embrace crypto, why wound they come here if they don't recognize crypto and bitcoin yet. Btw this forum is a need for the crypto users and it is useless for non crypto users.

Why do you need to tell everyone about the forum? I don't talk about crypto or about this forum with non-crypto people because I see how hard it is to convince a non-crypto person about crypto. When they heard about crypto, they started calling it a scam and when they saw the forum they gave disappointed feedback about the forum appearances. People used to use platforms like twitter, facebook where they saw a nice UI so these people don't feel comfortable using this basic UI system.

Honestly, I take my privacy very seriously, and on that note I don't want friends or colleagues to know that I've crypto assets. Whenever a discussion about cryptocurrency comes up, I rarely participate because I don't want to raise an eyebrow that I've some crypto stach. However, some of the rookie mistakes I do see online makes me feel compelled to introduce two friends to the forum since they're also interested in cryptocurrency. I've not heard any response from them, so take it that they're not interested.
