For me, we can not really convince everyone if they are closed-minded people, even if we can show some evidence and explain it to them if they've decided and do not want to know the truth or nothing we can do to like bitcoin . Cool

Its hard to convinced people to invest on bitcoin because they feed with a wrong information through social media and we can’t control that but of course we can make difference. We should tell them everything we got from bitcoin and all the losses we incur, but don’f ever forced them to do so cause at the end their decision will still matter.

That is the point, there is nothing to be done once people aren't listening to your arguments. They don't want to analyze facts and don't want to give themselves the chance to change their minds. It's like an hypnosis state. In some cases, these people listen too much the media and other sources considered intellectuals and very intelligent, so what these smart ones speak it's enough for the closed-minded people reach to their conclusions.

If Bitcoin was a hoax, it would have gone up to such a day that it would not have risen to such an interest around the world but Bitcoin believes that it will come to good places in the future because it is not a hoax.

Tell us why you decided to invest in bitcoin. I am sure that they say so only because they do not understand what bitcoin is.

Bitcoin is neither a scam nor a Ponzi. A Ponzi scheme requires you getting money from one source and using it to pay another, which is completely different from the concept behind bitcoin. For it being a scam - a scam to me is what no longer exist, but bitcoin still does.

If you want to at least change their mind about bitcoin or other cryptocurrency. My suggestion would be, try to find their interest and make it popular or known to you by using bitcoin or other cryptocurrency. For example is, if he is a headphone enthusiat then buy the best and expensive one and when he or she asked you how then bitcoin will kick in through their mind and appreciate it.

Not only friends, top notch finance proffesors here in my hometown also believe bitcoin is just bubble scheme. I try to describe blockchain to people and how its changing way of currencies, they just keep ignoring.

BTC is a bubble like all banks and a pension fund. If there are no new users, all this will burst

Dear all,

I just heard some of my friends chatting in a gathering and they think Bitcoin is scam and Ponzi. I just give them a smile and wish they will educate themselves a bit.

So, I would like you to give me some suggestions, how I can give them some hints with soft words which can change their mind or at least give them some more space to think twice?

Let them see your wallet, well if they will still reject the fact that Bitcoin is a real and functional platform then let them regret all the false accusations that they have been standing for simce then. To be honest Ive been in that same positiom but to the fact that I have seen may people being successful with the help of Bitcoin I am now convinced.

Your friends are not well educated about cryptocurrency and how it really works, if they still do not believe about bitcoins then you can try to show them the videos on youtube of different people who are wealthy today because of bitcoins.

I would encourage them to learn more about Bitcoin and the blockchain technology. There are Ponzi schemes and scams in this crypto world. They just need to be aware of what is real and what is not. Take some time to understand this new platform instead of just listening to FUD by other people.

Bitcoin is not scam at all. It's a real investement that brought people money and made them gain profit yet people consider it scam because it is risky, very profitable but very risky too. So you can simply lose a lot of money by going with the wrong decisions. The thing about bitcoin is it's imaginary numbers something that didnt cost anything in 2009 is now at 10000k makes it look like a scam but believe me it is the real deal.

This is because of the structure of crypto world which is being used for speculation, imagine investing in coins just because they say something nice that they are going to do in the future without anything to back that up.

I believed you had not been able to convince them enough " seeing is believing" show them the way with proofs and educate them why bitcoin is not a scam and ponzi scheme, personally if I had not practiced all these bitcoin of a thing I wouldn't belief it is real you still have more job to do in convincing them.

My colleagues at work scoff at me, they say that bitcoin bubble fell from 20k to 8k and it will still fall, they say that this is the end. I just smile in response and suggest that they buy bitcoin now, because its price at the fall and may be this price we will can not see in future.

It is their opinion and you have to respect that don't force them to get into things that they don't want but unfortunately for them it will be their biggest regret.

We don't have any power to command people or ask them to be in favor. If they thought bitcoin is a and you already explained it to them and they don't believe you then let them be. We cannot please anyone to believe we all have different explanation and interpretation of everything.

Just don't think them and it's a hassle if you will convince them but they don't believe. They will regret because you will receive a lot of money that can really help you and sustain your daily needs.
