Old guys who don't know about tech will never gonna believe in bitcoin or any unregulated cash/money/asset. They like to feel secure while storing their hard earned cash in banks and keep taking loans paying much higher than what banks gives to their customers from whose money they keep running with high profit.
You have done mistake by uploading those images to social media, can't you just show him how you can get profit out of trading and also show him some bitcoin related news which shows how other countries are slowly adopting bitcoin payments as well as they are thinking about using blockchain tech behind bitcoin?
Topic: How to convince my dad that Bitcoin is a trustful currency ? - page 11. (Read 8987 times)
try to convince him to use bitcoin as a currency and not only as a mean of payment, if you do this he will take more confidence with bitcoin and he will trust it more
You should have shared with him at a earlier stage, so he might be more mad about you with holding something from him, than you
owning Bitcoin. I would buy him something and apologize for your mistake... Parents wants to know everything their children does with
their lives... when they are excluded... they turn against the thing you hide from them. That includes friends/boy friends or girl friends.
So say sorry, and make up for your mistake.

Here is the story: My dad just found out that I am storing bitcoin and he try to prevent me from using this crypto. This is absolutely the worst situation I have ever had since I started used Bitcoin. I am living in the country which bad guys abuse Bitcoin for illegal activities. Therefore, most of the people here who do not have a proper knowledge about bitcoin believe bitcoin as a stupid, dummy coin or even MLM. My dad is one of them. Any solution to solve this problem ? It is quite hard though because I am still a teenager so it is extremely difficult to persuade him
Thanks in advance
If you're a teenager then you're going to have a fun time trying to explain this one.Thanks in advance
Talk to him about how there is a ton of stuff beyond just illegal activities that Bitcoin can be used on, show him some of what you're earned or whatever else and show him what you're striving to get to. Show him the technology and get him to see what it is so he treats it less as an alien concept and gets acquainted with what it is you're doing.
Well its a very difficult task .well if u are earning through signature campaign show it to them .that by just supporting their campaign through posting u can earn bitcoins which can be sold so that u can earn so much that u carry ur own expenses quite a bit .
Old people don't tend to like change. And that is including your dad if you are older than 18.

He is from a different generation. You will have a hard time to convince him but if you want to persuade anyone ever its best they discover enlightenment by themselves. My dad doesn't like me teaching him stuff it doesn't matter what it is. You are the child, they are the dad.

A very awkward situation for you,in a way he probably wants you well since you say that some bad guys abuse BTC in your country,so he probably does not want you to become one of them.
One way is to try to talk to him and try to convince him you're not doing anything wrong with BTC.Second way is to you continue to use BTC without him knowing about it if possible.If you have some good friend to use his PC for crypto stuff this would perhaps help,although from the perspective of privacy is not the best solution.
If none of that works, then you can do nothing but to stop to deal with BTC until you grow up and move up.
The best idea for now is to not tell your dad you are storing your extra cash in bitcoin, store some bitcoin secretly and when bitcoin price will be more than double than what it is right now show how you have been able to double your fiat within very short period.
I have also gone through similar problem few months back when price was near $400 and now it is $700+ which have been enough for me to convince my father also to invest in bitcoin and he is asking me to buy some bitcoin for him also.
Actually, he has known the amount of Bitcoin in my wallet. That is because I carelessly uploaded a picture about paying coffee and food by bitcoin on social media. And after that, I also checked my wallet while sitting next to him. He witnesses everything.... I have also gone through similar problem few months back when price was near $400 and now it is $700+ which have been enough for me to convince my father also to invest in bitcoin and he is asking me to buy some bitcoin for him also.
Well i think better to convince your dad to join in this forum and learn something in bitcoin so that he can expand his knowledge about bitcoin that we are using bitcoin not in illegal activities and tell him that there is some countries that has stores that accepting bitcoin as payment like in paris and brazil.. Maybe he will accept bitcoin as legit and trusted..
