Oh.. I really do not think it is a smart move to convince and persuade. Especially not relatives.
People should be informed so that they can make a decision for themselves if they want to make an investment. Bitcoin is not a sect.

Do you really want to be the guy responsible when relatives lose their money? Because you would be the one who draged them in.
That could really harm the peace in your family.

Great points and I completely agree with you here. OP needs to realize that this an extremely volatile crypto market where the coin values fluctuate like crazy most of the time which is why there is a huge degree of risk involved here and being responsible for someone else is not a joke. If your relatives are genuinely interested in the crypto market, they should be made aware of the risks that come with it. Instead of convincing them, I would focus on helping them learn the basics of crypto world and how everything works in the crypto market. Also, it would be better if they started investing small amounts rather than big amounts.

Well, I have started making some few cash from this and really will like those around me to partake. But people around have been put down because of ponzi and when bitcoin is being talked about all they see is Ponzi! How does one really get to re-orientate?

If your relatives and close people see that you get profit and if they realise that you live better thanks to Bitcoin, it will convince tham that BTC is something very useful.

Trying to convince some body into bitcoin is a very risky idea due to the fact that people have learned bitter lessons from all this ponzi scheme and at such view bitcoin as a ponzi most time but that is due to they own inability to study and understand e difference between a ponzi scheme and a digital currency like bitcoin. If you go ahead to convince some one into bitcoin without adequate knowledge when he/she loses any money in bitcoin he will feel that you talked him into another ponzi but if the see the evident of bitcoin success in you and pick interest in bitcoin then it better because they will be committed to study and understand the risk involves in using bitcoin.

I'm just like you, I wanted to involve my relatives and friends because I made a profit, but I regret to say that it took me a month to convince them that I have given up now.

You would just have to show it via your actions, no matter how kany concept-based words we say to our relatives and families and friends they would still see it as nonsense as long as they are not seeing in you what you are preaching. People appreciate it more of therw is a thread of proof that this works or that your life has changed to the better because of this and that is how you can convince them

In most of the cases those who invited investors is the who suffer or under fire because they convinced someone who have a little knowledge or none at all.. Let them on they’re own make a way to approach you if they Fing out what is bitcoin and cryptocurrency,, not the other way.. If you’re doing it for money as a commission or referrals then that’s a big No! No!..

You want to convince people who are not interested in bitcoin? You just spend time for it.

If you succeed in convincing them, are you sure they will succeed with bitcoin? What happens if they fail or lose?

You shouldn't convince anyone to invest in bitcoin.Simply because it is a financial investment and they may lose money and if they do then they will blame you.What you should do is try to explain them pro's and con's of investing in bitcoin and let them decide what they want to do on their own.No matter how hard you try to convince them they won't use bitcoin unless they learn about it and experience it.Some people will never use bitcoin because they simply not able to/try to understand how it works,some people think bitcoin is too advanced for them,some people think it is illegal and government will be after them if they use bitcoin Tongue

You can't convince these types of people.

I think the best apostle of persuasion is when your friends and relatives see your lifestyle changing due to your new found financial freedom. Then they will ask questions and that provides and opportunity to educate and teach them.

Why do you want to invite them to join Bitcoin? If they are interested a little about Bitcoin so you can invite them to join Bitcoin. But first, you don't tell them to invest on Bitcoin. You will join them on this forum so that they can know about Bitcoin automatically. When they will join this forum and started to join some Bounty Campaign after that you will invite them to invest on Bitcoin.

Yes, it is not good to invite anyone to invest bitcoin. Most of the people don't know about bitcoin. They don't know what is bitcoin? how it is uses? If anyone interested about bitcoin you can invite them to join bitcoin. Then they must knows about bitcoin and they are interested to invest bitcoin.

I agree, you need to give advice only when asked...and to ask - you must yourself achieve great success, then it will be interesting to everyone how you did it

You should convince people to put their money at stake based on your investment ideas. give them money, or state the facts using snackable content that they can easily understand. If they show interest, maybe you can give them resources and demonstrate how the crypto-ecosystem works, but let their investment decisions come from their understanding, not yours.

By giving them a little bitcoin themselves. It will encourage them to invest it and learn the workings of the bitcoin market. Or you could do it for cheaper by hitting up a token sale like Nucleus.Vision or Universa, and them a little, so that they see quick returns and are enticed to buy. If you really don't want to part from your investment, try enticing them to a bounty program and teaching them to earn free bitcoin, through ICO promotion

You should not convince them directly because many people who are less knowledgeable about Bitcoin will not be easy. First of all, you have to show some proof of other people's income as well as your own income. Then show them even the Bitcoin price to influence them a bit more about Bitcoin's legitimacy. After that you have to show them the Bitcoin seller to make them understand and how much potential they have. You should be as often as possible with them, but if you emotionally tell them that they can make a lot of money, chances are they will find it as Ponzi. Show them the reality, if they are a little smart they will know the rest. To become a successful person.

Never had a problem convincing my relatives to invest in bitcoins. I came prepared when we had a family gathering/business meeting. Some of them where hesitant at first, but after presenting some testimonials on Facebook by common friends, they were readily convinced that bitcoin is the future of currency.

Show them a simplified form of cryptocurrency cores and why it is safe and secured. Try to think of someone you know who become successful in bitcoin trading and manage that person to talk to them.

I was convinced that there are people who are enthusiastic about bitcoin, and there are people who have not grown up before
