I used to feel slighted back in the day when those I tried to talk to about Bitcoin would throw it in my face, mocking it as a scam. These were people who hadn't heard anything about Bitcoin before I introduced it to them, yet they mocked it instead of trying it out. That was in 2017. Some of them I even introduced to this forum but they later relented and dropped out. Fast forward to 2023, some of them are getting interested in the investment aspect of it. Sadly, I ain't that excited to waste my precious time on them anymore. I've moved on.
I understand how disappointed and angry you are when you are belittled when you introduce bitcoin, and I think not a few people have experienced that. It is a risk that we must accept gracefully when introducing bitcoin to those who do not know it. And it's proven, time will tell everything, I mean over time they will realize that what you say is true and they start to realize that bitcoin is a valuable asset. But if I may give advice, then come back if they ask you back. Because what I'm worried about is that they learn from the wrong and irresponsible people, so that it will harm them later. I don't mean to be patronizing, but it would be better to let down the ego a little. 
Topic: How was your belief formed? - page 3. (Read 1561 times)
My belief on Bitcoin was formed when a friend of mine in the school bought a new car with he's profit, at first I didn't believe him untill I saw he's Bitcoin transactions I was like wow, at that time I was forced to learn little about Bitcoin stuff.
Was in my experience when my close friend shared it with me, I didn't immediately believe in bitcoin, because I didn't understand it because it just told me I could earn it here I didn't give it a go right away At least, a few months later I found out that my friend who shared with me was earning that I had an interest and found out how to earn it and study and I knew it but I didn't immediately notice it because it was too deep for me.
I just believed here when I witnessed Bitcoin's bull run in 2017 last month, here I have just believed to gather bitcoin but I have experienced earning in Altcoins this year even though. So it wasn't even in my mind at this time that Bitcoin would gather.

I want to encourage you so that you won't depart or be curious to make same profit he made to purchase a car. Any thing concerning cryptocurrency investment have do with time so it will enable you to scrutinized the market before investing, but the process whereby you consider your friend purchasing a car with Bitcoin and venture into Bitcoin investment without knowing the rules and regulations or the rudiments of Bitcoin, it's very obvious that you will end up landing on the losing side of Bitcoin investment due to you don't have the pre -knowledge of it. 
I knew bitcoin about 9 years ago, at that time I often saw special reviews about bitcoin on Bloomberg tv and often reported on the collapse of bitcoin which dropped from $ 1100 in 2013 to below $ 200, at that time the closing review was saying that staying away from bitcoin was better than investing , but this made me curious so I read a lot about bitcoin and at that time I could earn for free, because I was still in school and had no money to invest, I participated in many bitcoin giveaway sites, faucetbox, and so on, I even won the lottery 3 btc at freebitco.in.
I was in bitcoin a bit before that, during the time when it moved from 180 dollars to 1200 dollars, I got in on early 2013 so saw the price actually going up, and then going down. Believe me, it didn't really change much to be a bit earlier, because we didn't know that bitcoin would recover, now we know and now I hold it even when we are in bear market, but at the time I didn't know this, and sold mine.I did the same methods, worked and found places and even founded a faucet once, and eventually made some profit from all of them and of course ended up selling them a bit later on. That's just how I do, it's just not easy thing for me at all to accept but that's the reality, millions gone basically.
move on.Although it is really that cant really be avoided not to think on how it would become if you do able to hold into those early years.Even myself had lots of missed opportunities which i do keep on
thinking back because who doesnt really like on being rich?
but well its not really that late on investing but now we should really be more wise on taking up decisions.No one really knows on what would be the future and this is why we do missed out opportunities and somewhat needed up to have some mix of luck. hehe

I think when we realized that bitcoin has value and could be spend like Fiat, then obviously it was a perfect opportunity to earn it. And then later as we grow mature, it became a sound investment.
That's how it started for me at least way back and then there is no stopping from there.
2017, it was crazy run, and then we wanted more, 2020, we got more experienced which means we learn from our mistakes. And then next year, it could be bigger and more crazy runs leading to a new all time high.

If ATH is formed again in 2024 or 2025 I think there will be 10 times more people adopting bitcoin and learning about it than today (or maybe even more than 10X) and I would really like to laugh at my friend who insulted me.
I thought I would like to know how your trust process builds up in investing your money in bitcoins?
It is always a habit that newcomers enter the crypto-currency market during every bull run, in fact towards the end of every bull run new comers will join the market making it difficult for some of them to make profits.
Rather most of them would dump with the market entring into the next cycle.
I share same fate with Op, about the cyclical nature of Bitcoin, that is what has kept me going and I believe that this cycle will not be a different.
For me it wasn’t an overnight thing. I slowly started working my way into Bitcoin by trying out all things Bitcoin related over time and growing more educated and comfortable with what risks I’m taking. I’m still learning but things have matured to the point where you just need to be aware of what to watch out for and if you’re safe and use BTC correctly the risks can be mitigated.
While it's still a long way from the $69K price Bitcoin once reached, the price rally is now also very good and is even closer to $25K again. Hopefully this good thing can continue past $69K so another ATH can build up very neatly in Bitcoin. Personally, I am also very optimistic that the increase in the price of Bitcoin will continue well this year and everyone will be happy when they see another increase in the price in these two days.
I have faith like you too friend. The best decision I ever made in my life was investing in the crypto market in the last few months. I Trust you guys, it really pays off a lot for the next few years.Each of us has a different belief in Bitcoin when we first start and not all are positive but there are also negative or also called as disbelief. We are still thankful that the disbelief that we feel are once again replaced by a belief after knowing more about Bitcoins.
The 2017 uptick followed by the huge 2018 gear growth convinced me it is going to last.
Btw right now we are far off ath of 69k but just like 2018 gear growth is massive.
So i have faith in another strong 💪 price rally

- My belief in bitcoin was formed because of the progress it has shown over time. Also through my learning about bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
Then I remembered when the value of bitcoin fell by around 200$ according to my research, I regretted that I wish I had known about Bitcoin then so that somehow I could have bought it.
But I don't think it was too late for me when I formed my belief in it anyway. That's why now no matter what FUD I hear and read about Bitcoin, I ignore it as long as the important thing is that I accumulate it little by little.

But to be honest, I personally also sometimes feel doubtful for some time but I'm always reminded of the initial purpose of investing in bitcoin and why I believe in it.
It's like having guilt because the results aren't yet there. I guess this is normal for everyone to think of when we're thinking of what we've done and if we invested correctly.Just think of the actual purpose at all times so that you won't be feeling guilt about your investment. That's something to be dealt of as an investor because this could be a reason for us to start selling in a panic when we're emotional within that day. It's good that you're always being reminded by that purpose as why you bought bitcoin.
when talking about our money and investing , we must always put trust into that matter no matter what comes out because this will also build your confidence and skills. boosting your inner belief and idea and going to progress and success.
that is what motivates us into investing and not negativities .
It's true what you say, the trust that is formed will produce results that make us more productive in investing, something we cannot see but we can be sure of it will move by itself in our mindset and heart, the more we come into contact with bitcoin every Day by day we are increasingly curious about what bitcoin can give us and that curiosity makes us understand many things about bitcoin which encourages us to have even better skills to increase our investment in bitcoin. But to be honest, I personally also sometimes feel doubtful for some time but I'm always reminded of the initial purpose of investing in bitcoin and why I believe in it.that is what motivates us into investing and not negativities .
for anything that you are dealing with.Investing isnt something simple that could anyone be able to handle out because there are really that risk which you should need to consider out.
We are all started on being a noob but later on when experience and awareness do able to attain then we would really be molding ourselves to be more better compared on yesterdays.
Important thing is that we do continue on living and dont easily give up if ever huge challenges would really be coming on your way.
