First of all I am the only person in my area who has a basic understanding of Bitcoin. That is, in the region where I live, no one but me knows about Bitcoin.
The maximum number of friends I hang out with are unemployed. They are not uneducated they are all well educated in their respective positions but due to lack of adequate facilities they are unable to find any employment. When we walk together I talk to them about Bitcoin but they tell me that they have only heard about Bitcoin on various social media and they think that if anyone is involved in Bitcoin, the administration of our country will arrest them. Because it is through this kind of news that they are aware of Bitcoin. But when I tell them that I have a rough understanding of Bitcoin. Then they don't want to believe me when I tell them all about bitcoin they believe me. And I assure them if we all get involved in Bitcoin maybe our unemployment will go away. Because there are enough ways to earn money with Bitcoin.
Out of all my friends two of my friends have some savings and when I told them about the investment they became very interested in investing but I didn't tell them only the positive aspects of the investment I told them the negative aspects. And I know the rest of my friends would also be interested in learning about Bitcoin but I just don't know how to start teaching them about it. Because bitcoin crypto currency is completely illegal in my country. So how can I help my friends in this regard?
Hope you guys can give me proper feedback on this and help me move forward in helping them.
What really impressed me in your story is that not only you give them the positives and opportunities but also the negatives and risks as well to be fair and transparent.
And yes I agree the fact the opportunities in Bitcoin doesn’t not restrict only towards invest and hold, trading, mining, payment method for your products and services, etc., but it’s actually a gateway towards multiple opportunities in the cryptocurrency and Web3 space.
When I was in my first months of my crypto journey, I kept learning more about Bitcoin and some ways to earn money with it. However, that leads me to exploring much beyond by going into altcoins and see multiple opportunities to earn as well. Thanks to Bitcoin where it really started my journey and one of the reasons of who I am today being a passionate educator, keynote and panel speaker in various universities and communities.
Hoping that your unemployed friends will be exploring even more beyond Bitcoin so that they can be helped with their own finances aside from yours.
But of course as you’ve mentioned about their hard-earned savings, I do not think encouraging them to spend it for Bitcoin would be a good choice. They can earn Bitcoin and altcoins for free in many ways rather than coming from their own savings. Just my two sats.
