I once thought of it too. I once made a thread regarding this and I got constructive answers. One of the answers I got was to create a facebook page (or it could be a group) regarding Crypto. Through this means, you can enlighten a lot of people at a time..... There a lot other ways tho.
what if you try it around your house first because if on the internet people can find information about bitcoin easily, there are many ways you can use to introduce bitcoin to people around you by for example you are a trader who sells household needs or else you just need to put a sticker accepting payments using bitcoin, so many people around you are curious about bitcoin and will ask you, and the people around you will start to recognize bitcoin.

You can do that if you are already earning a big amount of money through bitcoin it is because most of the people find that is it a scam so for you to be able to introduce bitcoin you must be a model first. You must show them how much do you earn and how to earn it for them to believe in you and bitcoin as well. I personally hate telling people about Bitcoin because I don't want anyone to blame me once they got failed on investing because they don't understand very well. Let them discover by there selves and show them what you've got in bitcoin and benefits on it.

in general, I have seen several times people around me try to introduce bitcoin, it's just that most people's responses about this are very unpredictable, and most of them are only interested in the beginning, and in the end are lazy to learn that.

to be honest, there are complicated things in cryptocurrency especially bitcoin which even now I don't really understand. however, because this is a hobby that interests me, so finding information about it makes me quite excited. not everyone has thoughts like me. Most people access the internet just to open social media, read trend news, watch YouTube, or even sell online. so it's quite difficult to attract people to learn bitcoin even when we do seminars. they have their own activities, except for people who are interested in it, and where I live, I think they are not interested in cryptocurrency.

I once tried to attract them by making them think about crypto that can get more profit, it's just that in this investment, there are so many things to consider like scams and more. Besides, if they are new to this, I am pretty sure they will invest blindly when they are unnoticed. I don't want to be the target of their anger because of that.

In my country, it can be a live-radio talk show. There are plenty of ways it could be introduced. It could be from pass-to-pass conversation of people or even referrals.
Certain seminar for some companies would help also so adoption could happen at the same time.
People who reside in rural areas would probably face difficulties in this because they're not used to technologies and they might need to take some time to be introduced to basic usage of the modern technologies.

I like the idea of seminars in companies. It would be great to tell people about new technologies like Blockchain, Bitcoin and crypto.

One day, I think to myself about how to spreads bitcoin to other people. After I create threads https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/did-you-arrange-a-meet-up-or-make-a-gathering-with-local-bitcoin-community-5191717, I see many of us don't try or don't have time to come into a gathering or make a meetup. So how we can introduce bitcoin to local people in our country if we are not trying to tells them about bitcoin? I know that will related to the regulations in every countries but we can introduce to our close friend so they will spread it into their closest friends too.

And if this is succeed, I think cryptocurrency will grow step by step. I know we can spread bitcoin online, but that doesn't mean all people in your country are aware of bitcoin. How they can know bitcoin if they never use the internet to search the news while we can tell them about bitcoin and another coin by offline.

In my opinion, the pub at a pint of beer or at work is quite suitable to talk about Bitcoin. This is a good way to interest people, but the sphere of crypto is not the easiest, because to an ordinary citizen it may seem difficult and dangerous because at first glance Bitcoin looks like a financial pyramid

Maybe we can introduce first into our home or family, orienting our siblings or maybe our son and daughter for them to be able to open their minds about what cryptocurrency and bitcoin is, with the proper teaching and proper knowledge they will be able to understand it and share it to their friends and that would be the start of spreading the word and knowledge about crypto and bitcoin.
Just like for example in my experience, I be able to enter in the cryptocurrency due to the teachings and influence of my college friends because they say I can earn money in this field, so I don't hesitate to enter and follow them into this field, and they are right that I can get income in this field so thanks to them for introducing me here.

To be honest,they will think that we are trying to scam them with unknown terms to them which will be the first reaction for someone who never heard about bitcoin yet.But we may convince them with your success stories of crypto if they are really close to you.

And social media could be the best way other than meeting them personally and teach them everything,just post things related to cryptos in your profile then surely they will come up and ask you about this or they might do their own reasearch.
It's not that easy as you were posting on your social media account. Some people are not a fan of reading some newspaper like post. You have to make a marketing strategy if you want someone who wants to read your post. Just think about on how those social media make you to read their articles and watch their videos. You have to copy their strategy to simply introduce it to your local people.
We are not promoting anything,we just wanted to share the good things which could benefits for them so no need to strategies to do this,just do the things you can if they didnn't get that then loss is for themselves which will regret them after some years.
If you see them interested but unable to cope up then you shouldn't leave them like that, you should help. Besides it is for the greater good of them and to the crypto society which could promote an adoption. It may be hard to help the other but if you see them trying their best to learn then you should have to be the best example to them. It's like teaching your students if you know something.

buddy we are 2019 now theres no need for social gathering just to promote something because computer is there and social media makes everything possible so relax and flood your wall and group chats with crypto stories eventually they will catch one of them and will surely approach you about what was that and how.

Social media is really a great thing we can use to spread about bitcoin, how good bitcoin really is and bitcoin is not a scam. Some people believe that bitcoin is just a scam maybe because they think that bitcoin doesn't have an owner. I've tried to tell some of my friends about bitcoin but they are not interested even if I said how good bitcoin is. It really depends on a person, we can't force them to enter the crypto world.

One day, I think to myself about how to spreads bitcoin to other people.

This question was asked here back in 2017 or 2018 on how to promote bitcoins locally, and each one of us had their own unique ideas but I don’t think many people actually executed those ideas. The only way to spread word about bitcoins is by giving them away as gifts, and that’s exactly what I do initially they won’t like it, but once they see prices going up and down then they suddenly want more of it.

I do share it with my friends and colleagues but I know that's not enough to achieve mass adoption. But it's already a great contribution. Imagine if we all shared it to someone and those people, after learning enough knowledge about bitcoin, will also share it to their other friends, and the chain will continue. But that's not easy since not everyone is interested.
I also share some articles and news on my social media so that it's easier to spread though there's no guarantee that they will look into it. But I think best promotions work on commercials. If we could just promote bitcoin and crypto on our local tv, that would be great

How they can know bitcoin if they never use the internet to search the news while we can tell them about bitcoin and another coin by offline.

The easiest way to invite people is to live by example, when I was starting out here when I try to tell them about Bitcoin and Blockchain they thought that I was inviting them to a Ponzi scheme, but after they saw that I am making progress in my life materially and they see through the many media news and Videos I've sent them, they finally realized how this technology can help them, you don't have to tell them they will eventually catch up because it's now becoming everywhere.
I have experienced an incident like that introducing to the local people where I live, I'm practically promoting the MLM system and the Ponzi scheme, it's funny because there are too many people who know the MLM business system in my country, so what we want to introduce them for sure will think of it like that continuously, one day maybe they will come by themselves where news about bitcoin is broadcast every day on their tv

I think when they will wonder why you are getting richer and richer everyday. They will be curious and ask you what's your job or how did you get the money? Definitely, upon asking you'll say its an online job and some are just really curious about it and you need to say its bitcoin. I'm sure they don't understand it. Well, through social media as well you can post about cryptocurrency and bitcoin. A lot of friends will also be curious about it.

yes as part of the bitcoin community we should continue to move forward to promote bitcoin offline. because indeed not everyone gets internet access easily. in my country bitcoin is legal as a trade and investment commodity but illegal if used for payment. at least we can encourage our relatives and close friends to invest in bitcoin. I have also promoted bitcoin several times to my relatives and friends. there are some who are interested and some who refuse. and some local exchanges in my country also go to campuses to promote cryptocurrency.

I tell them my opinion and advise them to make their own decision. I always tell people that cryptocurrency is most probably there to stay, but I wouldn't advise most people to buy it as an investor, only buy it as a user. If they ever come to the decision of holding or buying bitcoin speculatively for long term gains, then they need to come up with that decision entirely on their own.

Also, you can start with a question like Why does gold have value? then let them answer that and discuss it. this helps them understand scarcity and fungibility and you can draw the parallel to Bitcoin very easily. however, it is too complicated for the average user. the best way is to get them to purchase just a small amount and not worry about what price it's at, then show them how valuable it can be to transact and share money without the governments consent.

now there is no need to directly face to face if you want to tell something, what else about bitcoin, enough with the social media that you have you can introduce bitcoin to the local population.
You can also hold a seminar in the hall but this requires a large amount of funds.


In addition to only understanding the definition of bitcoin, ordinary people must also understand the function, the mechanism of work and various negative potential that accompanies it. If they are interested in Bitcoin because of the bandwagon effect (invited by friends and making investments because others doing it ), then this kind of investment will be very risky and they may experience shock when the value of Bitcoin falls.

Lack of understanding also leads to the possibility of scam cases that will reduce their digital assets.

Basically, to give an understanding about bitcoin to the people who haven't known it is extremely an easy way if we including as a technology, I mean such as a paypal or etc. Because the people out there has known it, but since bitcoin is a currency and related to money also its system is decentralized which is mean there is no party who can manage it then that is what makes the common people aren't easy to believe and feel its utilization. At least they have to spend their own money to feel it, moreover there are a lot of media who give some news about a bad side about bitcoin.

I spent a lot of my times to explain what is bitcoin for at least to my friend. But yeah they have many argument to not believe it  that I can't to resolve. So, I just thought to make many people aware to the utilization of bitcoin at least they use it as an investment place then they one key that should be done is buy bitcoin so they can feel it, if they have done it I believe they will have an interest to searching for about bitcoin and find more knowledge about bitcoin. Such as me, I know bitcoin from my friend and he has a lot of money from it so when he talks to me about bitcoin then I'll be easily to believe it.

If you have at least a small business you can use it to introduce it to your neighbors by accepting bitcoin as payments, they will be curious about it and start learning about it and probably they will ask you and it is your task to encourage them. I have seen a small business in my country accepting bitcoin it is a small tech cellphone repair shop, I'm just amazed with what I am seeing.

I created a thread about giving out cards with QR codes with it https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.52910844, that project is still a long way to materialize but its my way of letting people know about Bitcoin and how easy it is to transact using Bitcoin. I am also planning to set up a car wash business early next year and one mode of payment is Bitcoin, at least by the time the vehicle is completely cleaned the payment should have at least 1 transaction already.
