"convince" is not really the word i would choose for this situation. you are not agent of bitcoin to want to go around and "convince" people to change their ways and switch to bitcoin.
just try to educate yourself and if anybody was interested in bitcoin, show them the way and if they are really interested and not stuck in the old way of doing things with centralization and fiat then they will automatically be convinced.

Many people need big proof to satisfy that this site is legit ..whats the best way to convince your relatives or friends
It depends, if the person knows even a thing or two about bitcoin then I don't go around convincing them I just let them explore more and then come to me. But if the person knows nothing then I just lead them to several informative blogs and videos to weave them into bitcoin and once they see its advantages then come to me on their own.

i think you need to explain bitcoin to people in best, easy and possible way that increase their interest towards bitcoin and i think it will be more better if you explain them practically but if they want any proof about bitcoin then you need to show your successes in bitcoin and after that if they don't believe on bitcoin then don't waste your time,  ignore them and focus on your work.
but i am sure that if they see your success then they can be easily attract towards bitcoin.
yes that is too much important to introduce bitcoin to you friend in a best way, and for this you must also have a proper knowledge of bitcoin, because if you do not have proper knowledge about bitcoin then you will not be able to convince him in a good better way. if you will convince a person about bitcoin in a better way so he will happy accept bitcoin and will even invest their money and through this way the users of bitcoin will increase. i think little knowledge about bitcoin can badly effect the image of bitcoin.

I would not convince them. Even i convince them they will not pay attention to it, and after many years they will discover bitcoin on other people and they will use it , after they use it i will say to them that they're too late because the price of bitcoin is doubled in future.

I don't. Smiley

I let them chase me. I let them find out from other people that I'm earning a good amount of money on the Internet. I did my own research and that's how I got to this level of understanding of bitcoin. I wasn't spoon fed by someone from the Internet. I did it all by myself. Thus, people can also do it by themselves. If they really are interested about bitcoins, they would stop bothering me and start doing their own research.

It's simple. You simply have to read about bitcoins. Almost everyone can read and those that can't read can't probably comprehend the idea of bitcoins.

And after they did their own research about bitcoins, that's the only time that they will be fully convinced that this is the future of the internet and money. You simply don't force an idea to someone, you let them learn it themselves.

I always used money term to make them interested, and I always show them what bitcoin can do and what method can be used to earn bitcoin, but I must admit it is a bit difficult to convince someone to used bitcoin, some of them don't like the idea of new payment method

Money is not a way to convince someone to use bitcoin. Most rich people often feel fear for their money, so they are always careful. For bitcoins, they really do not know much, which makes them nervous and fearful of the risks. Instead of money, show them the potential and stability of bitcoin.

Most people i have spoken with about bitcoin show alot of enthusiasm.  It seems to me that its just a case of people now knowing enough about it.

For one, personal testimonial would best help convince your kin and friends into using Bitcoins. You must show personal circumstances that you are able to transact well and benefit from using Bitcoins. Like in my case, I would show them I get to transfer money without having to go through a money transfer company since the latter will substantially cost me much than a direct online bank transfer whereby there are no extra costs collected. I believe it is best to show how Bitcoins affect your daily life since it is the best measure of satisfaction that people around can readily notice.

if people see you earning bitcoin and learn about your success  then i don't think that they will need any big proof about bitcoin, and when they see your success then automatically their interest will increase towards bitcoin and they will try to know about bitcoin by asking you then you need to explain them, otherwise who don't have interest in bitcoin i think you will be wasting your time by convincing them.

I would not try to convince anyone to use bitcoin or the opposite. What I would do would be to explain what bitcoin is, how it works, its applications in the real world to this day and future expectations. If they are interested then I would explain more in detail, how to get a wallet, how to send and receive funds, etc. Once they had their wallet, I would lend them some funds to try for themselves. I would never recommend going to the faucets because they would get bored. Anyway I think over time you will not have to go tell anyone about bitcoin but it will be the other way around. As it becomes more popular and known, people will come and ask us about "that thing you do with the PC".

Convincing them to used bitcoin is very hard, just show what you do and show them your profit then let them to decide if they want to do like what you did to earn money.
More people do not like to used internet to make money and some of the people are scared to invest online.
And i think if you already do your part that is enough let them.
I'm relate with this because one time I am not telling people about the bitcoin they are one who see my earnings and what I do so people are seeing me to ask how did I do that then I will start giving them knowledge about the bitcoin because you should not ask them about that let them the one who will approach you in that way is it easy to teach because they are willing to learn.

BTC to the moon is inevitable...
step 1. understand what bitcoin is yourself.
i don't mean the technical stuff. just the basics of how bitcoin works, which wallet to choose, how to make a cold storage to hold coins for long, what is transaction fee and how it is calculated (even something as simple as knowing fee is not based on amount or fixed per transaction but based on size in bytes).

step 2. decide which aspect of bitcoin is good for you or the person you want to introduce it to.
- currency: so just introduce them to shops they can spend their bitcoin. tell them about gyft or similar sites and show they how much money they can save this way by using bitcoin. show them all the benefits of bitcoin.
- investment: show them a chart, also don't forget about the fact that there is only 21 million coins as max amount and there isn't enough for everyone!

step 3. don't forget that bitcoin is just money and not magic.
this means bitcoin is not going to make you rich overnight. and if someone is mistakenly thinking that way they have to stop.

Why would you want to convince people to use bitcoin?

You should do exactly the opposite, tell people about all the dangers in putting money into bitcoin, and only talk about it to your most computer savvy friends, other people just advise to stay away, because if you convince someone into putting their money in bitcoin when they get hacked and lose all their coins or the market crashes and they have a lot less money they will blame you.

Don't lose friends because of bitcoin, it's just money...

Here is the thing, you clearly can't convince everyone. Someone who don't care about his privacy, high fees, centralization and someone who is happy using the current banking system won't find bitcoin attractive at all. In other words, unless bitcoin is offering something they are interested in, they probably won't get convinced at all. I personally find that bitcoin is currently a little bit hard to learn and that's why most of people don't take the time to look into it.
the problem is many people are close minded .. How will they know if they never make some reasearch about this idea
