Topic: Do you still bother to engage non Bitcoiners? - page 9. (Read 13322 times)
No, since now i am not interesting to convince to the people even my brother. But when i entered in bitcoin way before 3 years ago, then i did hard working to convincing people that to buy bitcoin, and my only one friend convinced on it and he bought bitcoin when it was under $385 and now he has huge profit on it, so to see him, most of my other friends convinced on it without any hard working. That's why i quit it. But if anyone interested on bitcoin then definitely i will educate him.
I don't if I am the one who will initiate the discussion about Bitcoins. I tried that before to my friends and relatives but after 5-10 minutes of explaining to them, they just stare at me like I am talking about a UFO landing somewhere nearby, they don't believe it. I would if they ask me about it. Them initiating the discussion means they are somewhat interested.
Yes I do. I am not the kind of person that back away from confrontation or a challenge and I do not sit on my ass and wait for good things to happen to me. I go out there and fight for it, because I believe the harder and smarter you work for it, the more deserving it would be to achieve it.
Word of mouth is FREE advertising and it takes very little effort to plant a seed. If people hear about Bitcoin every day, they will eventually be curious and they will investigate by themselves.

I never bother until someone who himself gets interested and request me to give some explanation. For them I used to show our forum as well used to give the basic idea of what is cryptocurrency and the consequences faced in these days along with the need for such a evolution. Further is their responsibility to learn, make investment, trades or whatever upon their own risk.
it's much better, many of us waste too much time and energy just telling someone and convincing someone, even though they aren't necessarily interested and even anti to bitcoin, it will be simpler and not bother you if you teach about bitcoin, to people who already really interested to bitcoin.
Until and unless you won't allow non Bitcoiners, then how come you expect the community will grow and also giving the chance to a newbie is also a good gesture to welcome without bothering their small mistakes. Spreading Bitcoin knowledge will help to take the ride of this unstoppable horse! 
The most effective way to handle those non-believers are to no engage them at all. The only way to make them what they are missing out is if the government gave the go signal to btc.
Somewhere last year I introduced someone to BTC and he was ready to buy huge amouby until he realized that bitcoin has the ability to also decrease to the zeros and it's possible. Now he calls to know whether my shit(That's what he calls bitcoin) is still there and I always laugh at him cos he doesn't know what he's doing. Now I don't even have time to argue with him because his eyes has seen Caanan but his foot will never step there cos I won't I introduce him again.
Years before, yes but now I do nit alrrady bother and make arguments with them. I will now just prove them that they sre wrong
Are you still embroiled in debates with friends and internet creeps or have you let it slide?
Yes i do. We are Bitcoiner but our lives revolves not only with bitcoin. I hardly debate but when i do, it’s all about tech. And i don’t engage myself in a nonsense talk. It’s just a waste of time.
I don't argue with anon-bitcoiner, I just only tell them why I love bitcoin and the place I will be in the future with my constant stay online and unending researches about the bitcoin. Some of them think that bitcoin has expired and it will never go further or they do argue that they are going to invest in something else but never bitcoin. I just tell them, whatever they choose to do is fine, but only remember there was a adviser.
I usually prefer to not involve people who have no knowledge of tech because it can cause more damage than good. So Education is the first step, once they got the basics I will be more likely to feel comfortable to tell them about Cryptocurrencies.
To tell you the truth, it is rather very frustrating to engage in the crypto talk with the non crypto people around you, in one or two occasions, the btc topic will pop amidst conversation and i will find myself trying so hard to educate such people with very little or no success,
but at some point i try to refrain from discussing the topic since they are unconvincing,
For now i only talk about it with very close relatives, even though it is very hard to do

I still talk to some of my friends but I don't really convince them.
Sometime they are rhe one who is asking about crypto and stuff but that's just how it is.
They just want to talk and know about it but doesn't want to try it.

Yes, that was how someone keep telling me till I said let me give a trial, today we only share discussion on how Bitcoin is going, all you need sometime is better explanation and good manner of discussion
With regards to people belief, I am inclined to respect them. I do not see any point of having an argument if after I pointed out several concrete evidence they still cling to their belief. I agree, that it is only a waste of energy and time. Whether they are right or wrong it is up to them, same goes with mine since we are responsible for whatever action we have done.
I am always in debate with some friends who doesn't want to believe bitcoin's capabilities. I'm getting tired convincing then that 'hey, I am using bitcoin and this is real, dude'. They are not that open minded and have traditional attitudes which is very difficult for them to accept new changes like digital payments. Oh well, this is our own affirmation and we can't please everybody.

In my working place, many times i have entered into a debate with most of my superior about the future of cryptocurrency but they will never chnage their believe over Bitcoin, so, i changed from debating with them to what they believe. Since then i have never talked about the said Bitcoin with then and will not do till eternity becasue they can't change to believe.
I was perusing another forum today with a long running cryptcurrency thread. To my non amazement they're still debating the nature of the whole thing in the exact same way they were 2-3-4-5 years ago. The same people are waiting to be convinced. The same people are trying to convince them.
This strikes me as a complete and utter waste of calories. I'd rather let people believe what they want. Me convincing them won't help anyone. They're not going to convince me of anything. My attitude is - crypto is here. You may as well sit back and see what happens as nothing I do, say or listen to will change it.

I stopped debating on something that is inevitable I just let them feel sorry for not believing early and I'm just waiting to say to them that I told you so, if they do not believe it's ok to me, I don't want to waste my time I still going to make profit, whether they believe or not.
I personally never introduce to my friend or family and relatives regarding crypto but they know that I am using on it and do trading also, though they have an idea about stock trading they can relate also in trading with crypto. However, I let them know how successful I am in adopting crypto in my life at it gives financial support especially when the market grows. I explain about how bitcoin it works and how risk if you are going to invest in this but never to convince them that to adopt bitcoin I let them decide by their selves.
