Creating videos to promote bitcoin is not enough to spread awareness the best promotion is still the word of mouth for me. Even though it is a organic marketing approach, it still effective nowadays because there are people who always getting curious in many things. I also promote bitcoin specially in retailers, whenever there are small retailers in my community; I always telling the manager that they should accept and adopt bitcoin as mode of payment.

The word of mouth type of promotion isn't enough either. The point is that we should do all that we can. Videos, stickers, discussion, and even a mere statement all contribute in their various ways. If you believe it's better to talk to people, then do it.

Nice video I guess? but people will lose interest in the video itself since the voice wasn't good. I think you used software for the voice, it's better to use a real voice to cover up those lines. It's very creative.

Yes, I agree with the promotion of bitcoin through individuals first. We shouldn't rely on seminars and other events just to develop our community in bitcoin. As an individual, you should think up by yourself on what can you do in our community and @OP tried it through making animated video.

I personally did the same thing but not through animated videos. "Development" and "Improvement" of the Society: Discussion about Blockchain.

Besides the effort in making quality content to spread Bitcoin awareness, we also must have enough resources to actually disseminate the material to a larger-scale of audience. Having the content would be useless if it's not shared properly and widely in different platforms.

Promotion is not also bound to creating multimedia, but even a simple talk with acquaintances would help.

Even not in social media, wearing some tshirts with the word "Bitcoin" has also a big impact to the people who aren't aware yet about it. And yeah, even having some simple things like keychains with the word or engrave bitcoin is useful too. But just like what I have said before, we conducted  seminar together with my brother firstly within the family members for the awareness of this new technology. We can start promoting btc within the family first, it's a fulfilling feeling to know that the family members seems very optimistic about bitcoin.

Promote bitcoin through talking to your buddies and family members teach them to know about bitcoin. Uploading video  in YouTube channel. Conducting seminars for college students. Traveling to other places and promoting Bitcoin who doesn't know about it. Let them know the worth of the Bitcoin. As other member told wear a bitcoin Tshirt, Let's promote bitcoin.

Many of us here think that promoting bitcoin must involve holding seminars, meet ups, or conversing to people. However, that's not true. In most cases, we should understand that we can promote bitcoin in many ways. It could be by creating memes, stickers (I've seen some cool WhatsApp stickers), etc. You just don't know who would come across it!
Lately, I made an animated video in which the character talked about bitcoin, it's uses, advantages and disadvantages. Tho it wasn't easy making it (it took days), I believe it's worth it.
Here's a link to the video: https://youtu.be/LwwOVcFPWKI
If you share the video, it'll get to more people and that's a form of spreading the right info about bitcoin.
So it could get to other people and bring a lot to understand bitcoin better.
I really like creative people, and you have done your best by maximizing your abilities. This is one of the biggest forums for discussing cryptocurrency, especially bitcoin, this is a great tool for you to get a lot of attention and provide benefits, education.
Yes, I strongly agree that providing education about cryptocurrency not only through seminars or the like, using an avatar related to cryptocurrency on social media accounts can be a very good tool, providing knowledge directly to family and friends is also very effective for correcting perceived not quite right about cryptocurrency.

You just trying to promote a video and not Bitcoin. And moreover, no one said seminars are the only way to promote Bitcoin, there are already lots of articles about Bitcoin that you can find online and I believe those are enough.

When I started making use of Bitcoin I didn’t watch a random video or article, I went to the direct source which is the Bitcoin organization website and I read everything about Bitcoin there. People already come across lots of contents that are related cryptocurrency and it’s a matter of interest, it’s likely that anyone that come across your video might already know about it and wouldn’t take interest in this type of video.

Now this is the kind of comments that make me back down. I can't imagine what you are actually thinking. I am promoting bitcoin through a video!

SHM..... I really don't get your point

it’s likely that anyone that come across your video "might" already know about it and wouldn’t take interest in this type of video.

Firstly, you should understand that you said "might". Secondly, this is no where close to a reason not to promote bitcoin through this means. I had to do some analyzing to know the target audience and what they know, don't know, and what they think. So, this video as I believe does not only motivate other to promote bitcoin through various means but also tells newbies a superficial facet of bitcoin.

Nice to see that you are continuing your effort to promote bitcoin.

I just want to add some suggestions.

I think it is better to add some links under your description. It can be a link to bitcointalk.org or to Bitcoin whitepaper. These links can be very helpful to newbies who will come across your video. Just telling newbies to google bitcoin can have a bad effect. They can come across bad information that will not be helpful to them. But if you direct them here, all their question will be easily answered and they can also contribute to a healthy discussion.

By the way, good video.

Promoting can be anything that could catch the attention of the readers and listeners, as long as it not in an illegal way...for sure it will works.
And one great and successful way of promoting Bitcoin and any campaign is through social media. It could easily be read and attract more people cause most of us are already been using phones and mostly engage in social media. But the bad thing is that it can simply be edited which giving some confusing info that they might get and could lead to misunderstanding.

That is why, when we are promoting it just like this...it should rallying the truth as we built a reputation and not leading them to questionable ends.

Many types of promotions that can be done including the way you use is to create 3D animation.
I appreciate the 3D animation that you make, because it takes too long to make every move, if you have to modeling each character it might take weeks.

there must be more creative ideas that can be applied and used to promote bitcoin to the general public and this is one of them.
Regarding the contents of promotional content that is used can be adjusted to the needs and target of your audience.

Wish for the rain? Then deal with the mud too.
Great video Chris! What an effort, I wish I had the same skills and patience you have. You really love bitcoin, huh going to share this with people I know struggling in money stuff to promote your video as well.

I didn't think a meme could be a good idea to share and promote Bitcoin. lol
Although I've seen it before where memes are used in a Bitcoin group/page as a means of entertainment.
Thanks for sharing the idea OP it could be useful to the people who wasn't well aware of the existence of Bitcoin, they may heard it already or seen it somewhere but they just don't think it is worth it to try since they don't have any idea what that is.
Well, there's no basis on promoting bitcoin itself. It could be the way you want, the way you think would be the best way in your terms or field, like what Chris did here. Meme nowadays are totally an attention hooker, in my opinion, whenever people crosses out on something unfamiliar which may be like meme's message or what, they will tend to look for some source to confirm what meme wants to say. Well, in such cases, there will be some circumstances that some other people would even dare to dive to such knowledge, and will get to be a part of a community they never thought they could get. So much story, but it is definitely worth trying though, besides we don't know what would be the other result except entertaining people.

We've actually passed this stage wherein we are proactively telling people about the wonders of bitcoin.

Too many videos, ads, infographics, text and whatnot have been distributed and disseminated everywhere. That was in 2015-2017 when little to no people are really interested in bitcoin until it started making rounds in the mainstream media due to its appreciation in value. Perhaps people back then were attracted to bitcoin for the wrong reasons, that's why a lot of them disappeared in 2018. Though that doesn't mean that what we're doing to get the word out there is wrong.

Even though the general perception of people about bitcoin nowadays is all about scamming, just try to point them out on the right direction: make them see some stats that are realistic and that are actually happening and it will sway their minds even just a little bit. Keep up the good fight in spreading the good word of bitcoin.

I really like your video, If someone would definitely watch it they will surely have an idea and will have some little interest with Bitcoin, that is why I will share it to some of my classmates, and yes as the technology is now advance with just one click you can share it into group chats on Facebook although Facebook is not allowing any means of cryptocurrency advertisement I think this video from youtube will surely make its way to some audience, because of your efforts in making this video I will give you something in return.
OP really made huge efforts in creating this video and I really salute his/her efforts. The video seems attractive for new comers and I am sure most of the newbies who have the will to join with us in blockchain networks would surely find some or the other beneficial information from this video.

These kind of acts leads for a better promotion of the cryptocurrencies as we all know that cryptocurrencies are a digital currency and digitally marketing them with a number of audience can seem beneficial as the more number of people join bitcoins, the more demand it would gain which would lead for more wider price in the nearly approaching future.

I really like it because it is a not only attractive and better promotion for newbies but it is very informative as well, and in the Video, they have discussed not only the great and useful thing Bitcoin can do but the volatileness of Bitcoin as well for people to know what they are dealing of here, I guess this is the most important part where newbies need to really know about Bitcoin that there are still risk in it regarding the many great things it offers to someone.

Yeah! We can promote bitcoin by any mean. Once I lent my friend $100 and he messaged me on WhatsApp after 3 months asking bank accounts details to return the money. But I asked him to pay me in bitcoin instead. He heard about bitcoin for the first time. Anyhow, he bought bitcoin worth $250 as exchange didn't allow him to buy lower than that and sent me $100. Two days later I received his message again. This time he told me that his balance magically rose from $150 to $185. Then I explained him about the magic of bitcoin.

Fast forward to present, he is active bitcoin investor and have over $20K invested in bitcoin. This is the power of bitcoin and I am happy to contribute to its success.  Smiley

Social media as well as youtube is a platform which can be most reliable for promoting bitcoins and smaller methods of promotion too can lead for a greater cause. There are people who spend most of their time on social media.

Moreover, we spend some time on social media scrolling various posts and in those posts we at least get to know about bitcoins in any single post.

These posts are reached by a number of individuals who like to spend their time on social media and they get to know more about bitcoins. Also making bitcoins more visible by creating stickers, emoji, videos, etc can be eye catchy and also people would never at least forget how physical bitcoin might look. Branding any commodity before their sale leads for more attention from the entire community and this might be the best example for the same.

Personally, I agree with OP opinions on promotional ideas on Bitcoin. Bitcoin can also be promoted by given the needed results to those who doubt the existence of Bitcoin. I have been teaching many of my colleagues about the technology, many of whom have joined the journey of Bitcoin. Those who saw results coming from us joined without our awareness, today they are happy to be part of this journey of digital currency.
promoting bitcoin to many people is indeed a very good step, but you should know that at this time many people have been victimized and the promotion of bitcoin is scam, so I think now to be able to promote bitcoin should be able to provide information about bitcoin properly and correctly so that no new people are fooled by the bitcoin platform anymore.
